Best RV Parks & Resorts near Sewanee, TN

Several RV parks near Sewanee provide full hookup options within 30 miles of the university town. Twin Creeks RV Resort in Winchester features newly paved sites with 50-amp service and full hookups positioned on the left side of pull-in sites. Bigfoot Adventure RV Park & Campground in Tracy City offers 35 sites with electric, water, and sewer connections suitable for larger motorhomes. Greeter Falls Campground maintains 53 sites with 30/50-amp electric hookups, water connections, and dump station access. The Manchester KOA (now Rvino - The Broken Banjo) provides pull-through sites with full hookups that accommodate larger RVs with tow vehicles. "Sites are large, newly paved and equipped with very new, clean picnic tables. No fire rings...but there are 10 communal ones near the water and wood is provided at no cost."

Navigation to some mountain RV parks requires careful planning due to narrow roads and elevation changes. Most parks in the region maintain gravel interior roads, though some need maintenance with eroded sections that can challenge larger motorhomes. Cell service varies significantly—Verizon users report 3-5 bars at most locations, while T-Mobile coverage can be spotty in more remote areas. Propane is available at several parks including Holiday Travel Park and Manchester KOA. Pet-friendly policies are standard across most parks, with several offering designated dog areas. Based on reviews from The Dyrt, highway noise can be an issue at parks near I-24, particularly at Battlefield Campground where "the interstate runs directly beside the campground, and is visible from the storage sites across from sites 11-24."

    Rvino - The Broken Banjo

    Love this place

    I stayed in spot 8 during the Coronavirus lockdown. The staff is very friendly. It’s near I-24 which makes getting places easy. It will be noisy if you are sound sensitive. It is well maintained. The laundry room is great. You can get anything you need from the store. Perfect pull through sites for a big rig overnight stop. Great sites with picnic table, fire pits for longer stays. Nice pool, sparkling clean restrooms. The dogs loved the dog park. The amenities for kids are great. Highly recommend.

    Mountain Glen RV Park & Campground

    The Best of the Best!

    Mountain Glen is a hidden gem! If you are traveling through eastern TN or just looking for a place to park your RV for a few weeks or longer of peaceful quiet then you have to stay here. I've stayed in RV parks across 38 states and never found cleaner bathrooms, friendlier customer service, or faster WiFi (and that's important since I work remotely!) than what Mountain Glen RV Park offers. They've also got great water pressure, easy pull-throughs, after-hour check-in options, and a convenient store in case you forgot some essentials. In addition to the great amenities, you'll be greeted by rolling scenic vistas of beautiful countryside, having fishing opportunities, pavilion or indoor meeting room to hang out with friends, playground for the kids, and pet friendly areas for your dogs to enjoy.

    Mountain Glen is definitely a must-stay and the best of the best of all the RV parks and campgrounds I've ever stayed at!

    Fairview Campground — Tims Ford State Park

    Camp by the Lake!

    You can camp by the water at Tim’s Ford Lake. Some sites have full hook up’s up to 50 amp. Sewer hook up is not available at the water sites. We enjoy this campground. Great for kayaking and fishing. Family friendly.
    35’ Fifth Wheel was a breeze at most sites, a couple sites may be tight.

    Battlefield Campground & RV Park

    Woodsy Wayside

    Battlefield Campground is an extremely convenient RV park located right of I-75 about 20 minutes south of Chattanooga. It is very easy to get to, but part of that convenience comes with an absence of quiet; the interstate runs directly beside the campground, and is visible from the storage sites across from sites 11-24.

    This is an excellent place for long-term campers, and it includes a nice playground, a pool, and a camp store/clubhouse. We could not get close to the pool or playground as they were closed due to COVID-19, which was comforting that they are taking public safety seriously. Sites include 50 and 30 amp full service, and seven tent sites in the middle of the campground that also include electric. There are seven camping cabins spaced throughout the campground that have outside picnic tables and grills, and beds inside as well as electricity.

    Most of the sites here are nicely wooded, and as the area is slightly hilly there are elevation changes between several rows of sites which allows for a little more privacy than many RV parks offer. 

    Downsides to this park are the highway noise, and the campground roads are paved but in need of maintenance; the road is eroded in a lot of places. 

    Upsides are the sites are shady and well landscaped, and there are great amenities for families looking to stay here for extended periods of time, as well as the proximity to Chattanooga, Chickamauga Battlefield, and Ringold/Ft. Oglethorpe.

    Monte Sano State Park Campground

    Top of the Mountain with Great Views

    We heard from other campers that if you go to Huntsville, Alabama that you have to stop at Monte Sano State Park. We took our Class C up the mountain and was able to reserve full hookups in a nicely wooded area. Sites were level gravel with picnic tables and grill. Great place to bring a trail bike or take hikes. Pet friendly.

    River Road RV Park & Horse Camp

    Peaceful, Clean, and Friendly—A Great Basecamp in Chapel Hill, TN

    We stayed at River Road RV Park and Horse Camp and had a great experience. It’s a quiet, no-frills spot on a working farm—perfect if you're looking for a place to relax and recharge after a day of exploring. The sites were level and clean, with both pull-through and back-in options. Full hookups were available, and there’s a small laundry area with a shower and bathroom. Roads are a little narrow, but manageable. This isn’t a resort, and amenities are minimal(a swing set for kids, no pool or clubhouse), but that’s part of the charm. Pam, the owner, is incredibly kind and helpful—she brought us firewood and checked in often. Her camp dog, Charlie, was a sweet and playful companion to our older dog. Many of the other campers are long-term residents working nearby, and everyone we met was friendly and helpful. It felt safe, grounded, and community-oriented. There’s some wildlife to enjoy—rabbits, birds, squirrels—and even a couple of mini ponies in the pasture. One thing to note: there is a train track nearby. It didn’t bother us, but light sleepers might want to bring earplugs just in case. The best part is the location. Duck River is just 5 minutes away, and Henry Horton State Park is close by—great for fishing, hiking, or kayaking. If you want a peaceful basecamp with kind people and good access to outdoor adventure, this is a great spot to park and stay.

    Cathedral Caverns State Park Campground

    Beautiful cave!

    General: Small (36-site) campground in two loops; only the upper has a bathhouse. It is about a ¼ mile walk from the lower to the bathhouse. 

    Site Quality: Sites are gravel and vary; some are back-in, some are pull-through and some are parallel. Site 32 was very generous in size although not completely level. There was one picnic table, one set of water/electric utilities, and two fire rings (not sure why there were two). This site could easily fit a large Class A or two smaller campers. 

    Bath/Shower House: Clean and heated. The toilets and showers have a curtain for privacy which IMO feels less private. When I was in the shower, someone opened the curtain not realizing (!) that someone was in there. Warm water at the sinks and showers was appreciated on a damp and chilly day. There is also a clean laundry facility - $3/wash and $2 to dry. The laundry room also has a microwave oven. 

    Activities: There are daily cave tours; we have been in many caves and this one is very nice. By the lower loop is a small climbing wall. There are also hiking trails and gemstone mining, although we did not take advantage of either of these. We were there for the Cave Run - a 10km or half marathon where the last 1.2 miles AND finish are INSIDE the cave, which was very cool! 

    Mason, the camp host, was great. Upon our arrival, he escorted us to our site in his golf cart (entirely not necessary but welcomed) and went over what we needed to know including the WiFi password (otherwise we had no service on Verizon). Be sure to go to the office (up a very steep hill or you can drive) and ask for your 15% senior discount if applicable (you need to show proof you are old!).


Guide to Sewanee

The camping areas surrounding Sewanee, Tennessee sit atop the Cumberland Plateau at elevations ranging from 1,800 to 2,000 feet. This higher elevation creates cooler summer temperatures compared to nearby lowland areas, typically 5-10 degrees lower during peak summer months. Fall camping season extends longer here due to the protected mountain terrain and diverse forest cover.

What to do

Hiking nearby waterfalls: At Greeter Falls Campground, campers can access the Greeter Falls trail directly from their sites. "Walk or drive to Greeter Falls trailhead for a beautiful waterfall hike," notes Jennifer U. The falls area includes multiple cascades within a short hiking distance.

Disc golf courses: Bigfoot Adventure RV Park & Campground offers on-site disc golf. "They seem to be adding things… disc golf maybe. Great park with clean facilities," writes Frank A. The course winds through wooded areas with natural terrain challenges.

Fishing opportunities: Several campgrounds provide fishing access without requiring separate permits. "Had a blast fishing in the ponds," mentions a Bigfoot Adventure guest, while Twin Creeks RV Resort offers "Pretty good fishing" with "Boat ramp just down from campsites," according to Gary's review.

What campers like

Communal gathering areas: Twin Creeks RV Resort offers shared outdoor spaces. "There are 10 communal ones near the water and wood is provided at no cost," explains one guest. "Perfectly positioned for amazing sunsets."

Clean facilities: 1776 RV And Campground maintains well-kept bathhouses. "Nice quiet small campground just outside downtown Mentone. Friendly helpful camp host, clean bathhouse, full hook ups and great wifi access so husband could work from camper," writes Lisa M. The camp offers both RV and tent sites.

Nature immersion options: The primitive sites at Greeter Falls Campground provide a more rustic experience. "Trees so can add my tarp for possible rain. Restful sleep. Parked by my deluxe primitive site... I saw a deer on the way to the bathroom," reports Michelle P., appreciating the natural setting.

What you should know

Internet connectivity varies: Cell service can be inconsistent across campgrounds near Sewanee. At 1776 RV And Campground, "If you plan on using your cell up here...don't very poor signal but WI FI works great all over the park," notes Lisa J. Other campgrounds like Greeter Falls may have stronger cellular signals.

Seasonal considerations: Many campgrounds in this region experience significant temperature swings between day and night, particularly in spring and fall. Pack layers and appropriate sleeping gear for potential 30-40 degree temperature drops overnight during shoulder seasons.

Reservation policies differ: Some campgrounds like Shellmound don't take advance reservations. "Make sure you call the morning of to make sure there is a spot open before driving down. They don't do reservations... But they will put a cone in your site if you call that morning," advises Haley B.

Tips for camping with families

Kid-friendly activities: Bigfoot Adventure RV Park & Campground offers recreational options beyond hiking. "Great experience for kids. Wonderful views and lots of open space to play in fields and walk. Kids can also zip line!" shares Kayla L. The ziplines are popular with school-age children.

Playground access: Several rv campgrounds near Sewanee, Tennessee include dedicated play areas. Shellmound Campground features "a playground area at the front and it is separated from the day use area," according to visitor reviews. This gives parents easy supervision options.

Swimming opportunities: Shellmound RV Resort offers water recreation. "You're next to a dock on the TN River, so water activities were easy & fun!" reports Adam A. The dedicated swimming area provides a controlled environment for younger children.

Tips from RVers

Site orientation awareness: When staying at Twin Creeks RV Resort, note that "Electric and water hookups are on left side of campsite," as Gary points out. This affects how you position your RV during setup.

Interior road conditions: RV parks near Sewanee often have varying road quality. At Battlefield Campground, "the campground roads are paved but in need of maintenance; the road is eroded in a lot of places," a visitor notes. This can challenge larger motorhomes during rainy conditions.

Connectivity for working travelers: For digital nomads using rv campgrounds in Sewanee, Tennessee, consider 1776 RV And Campground. One guest reports, "screaming fast internet! We work from home and the internet was so fast, people were amazed when I told them I was at a campground. We didn't even try to use our 5G system."
