My family and I will be traveling to Chattanooga Tennessee in a couple of weeks. We are looking for a campground that would be fun for the kids and for us. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

We're leaving for a TN trip on Saturday - Knoxville for 3-4 days, then down to the Chattanooga area for a few. We're going to try to find a spot at the Lookout KOA, which is just barely in Georgia. I've heard the Lookout KOA is decent - fairly close to the tourist attractions in the area. Assuming they have good wi-fi, I'll try to post about it - or PM you.
We stayed last summer at the Raccoon Mountain campground. It was quite nice with a good pool. Sites were a bit close together. Location was good for Chattanooga sights and touring but it was quiet. We paid $24; I believe that was for electric/water hookup.

I was at Raccoon Mountain last weekend and I agree with the other comments on it. There is also a cave at the campground if you are into those things.
As for Harrison Bay, I have never stayed there because it is a state park that does not take reservations. The one time I went up there to check it out, it was full and very crowded and noisy. I am sure that varies with the weekend but I don't want to pull up there only to find there is no place open.
I have stayed at the KOA in Cleveland, TN which is just a little northeast of Chattanooga and it was very clean and nice.
There are a couple more in Chattanooga, but they are more in the "city" area and not quite as scenic or quiet.

Sorry, Holiday Travel Park. It's a great family park, and it makes a great base camp.

Thanks Barb,
I have driven through that park in the past while looking for places to stay for a short weekend as we live only 30 minutes away. It looked clean but I thought it would feel a little closed in where it is located. I guess we will have to give it a try sometime. Thanks for the info.
