Parks in Lawrence County

Coopers Ferry Park was established in 1996 in Monticello. The park has much to offer to the community including natural landscaped walkways, a fishpond and a running stream which leads to a working water mill. Recently the park added an elevated walkway which views the nature overlook. A pavilion is located on site for either a nice afternoon picnic or to just relax and take in the scenic view which looks out to the Pearl River.

Atwood Water Park is another great spot for picnicing. The park is equipped with picnic tables, tennis courts, and a baseball field. A boat ramp is also available along with camping facilities.

Silver Creek has a new city park which includes a walking trail and pavilion.
