I am writing to warn other trail riders about an incident that happened to me on 5/15/17 while riding the new trails that go by the Living History Farm. A jack got loose & tried to attack me & my horse. My little 5 year old TW mare ran off with me trying to escape the jaws of the jack. My 2 friends got off to control their horses but the jack kept chasing me & my mare. I was terrified & feel truly blessed that I did not end up in the hospital or dead. This animal should not be left at K.M.S.P. 
I had a very positive experience, and the park staff was very friendly. I went fishing and was extremely happy with my overall visit. The park is safe and clean.
Kings Mountain State Park is one of our favorite places. It is a beautiful site with a lot to see and do. The Rangers are extremely helpful and the campgrounds are very nice! Staff were very nice and the trails were well maintained. Quite a hike to the camping grounds for tents but plenty of fire wood and clean restrooms when we got there. Will be back for sure!
They are more interested in giving out parking tickets than in maintaining the park and allowing runners to park in obscure areas.Go to the Federal Park. Much more user friendly! was able to see lots of wild life. rangers were very helpful. My biggest problem is that I cannot seem to locate a trail map for equestrians or figure out what all the different colored flags are along the trails. We were lucky to finally get back at the road, then we knew we could get back to our horse trailer. I can see how easy it would be to get lost! gary is a wonderful host for the park.my husband has rsd and he helped us so much thank you gary Park employees spend a lot of time sitting around smoking in their golf carts. Bath houses were disgusting and in major disrepair. this is a nice park but had a hard time finding anybody to ask questions. No park rangers
