Although it was a little on the humid side today the free fossil bed tour helped get me the exercise I needed. The fact that folks come from all over the world to see this 390 million years old fossi… Full review by Joe B

The cabin is the other end of the park, and is locked up as others have said. You can drive to it, but you go outside the park, and go through several residential neighborhoods, but just follow the signs. Parking is free there.
Can you walk in the fossil beds at this time? Is there a restauant nearby

The Widow's Walk ice cream and bike shop is very close at 415 E. Riverside Dr. In addition to some great ice cream and bike rentals, they have burgers and sandwiches. You can't miss it because it is an old Victorian colorfully-painted house. With regard to the fossil beds, I was there in April so I can only give you my best guess about walking on them. The river was so high then and there was so much debris, that I doubt much has been cleaned up or that the river is lower. I would call/email the Clarksville Park System and ask for an update. For some reason, TripAdvisor doesn't allow websites in answers to questions. So just do a search for the Parks and Recreation Dept. for Clarksville, Indiana.
