The parking area offers the best vista of Cherokee Lake, although there would be more views along the trail when the leaves are down. At the Smallman parking area, there are many concrete picnic tables, a restroom, and a rental shelter. Parallel parking along one side of the road then roughly 0.1 mile walk to the the trailhead. | The parking area offers the best vista of Cherokee Lake, although there would be more views along the trail when the leaves are down.
