Are there any private parks similar in grandeur to state parks?

Asked by Ltryptophan (12091points) March 29th, 2017 from iPhone

Not necessarily grandeur, but bigly. With decent facilities, and deep woods.

Basically a privately operated state park.

There are nice places that are privately owned but rarely do they equal the size and splendor of a national or state park.
