Chickasaw State Park was a 520-acre (210 ha) public recreation area located on U.S. Route 43 approximately 4 miles (6.4 km) north of Linden in Marengo County, Alabama. The state park was originally developed in the 1930s by members of the Civilian Conservation Corps on property that the state had owned since 1819.[2] It had offered trails, picnicking, and camping facilities until it was abandoned in October 2015.[3] It was one of several Alabama state parks that either closed or saw curtailment of services in 2015 following state budget cuts.[4][5]
