Best RV Parks & Resorts in Tennessee
Tennessee's state parks and private RV resorts provide dedicated sites for motorhomes of varying sizes across different regions. Fall Creek Falls State Park Campground offers full hookup RV sites including 50-amp electric, sewer and water connections year-round with big-rig friendly access. Raccoon Mountain Caverns and Campground features level gravel sites for easy back-in positioning. "Fantastic place, nice little store, beautiful sunrise makes you ready for day of Adventures. Nice level gravel spots," noted one visitor about Raccoon Mountain. Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg KOA operates year-round with full hookups and accommodations for larger vehicles, while Montgomery Bell State Park includes laundry facilities alongside standard RV amenities like sanitary dump stations and water hookups.
Most Tennessee RV parks require advance reservations, particularly during peak fall foliage season when availability becomes limited. Several campgrounds have concrete pads for motorhomes, though site dimensions vary considerably between locations. Cell service can be inconsistent in mountainous areas, with one review noting "AT&T has about 1 bar up on the hill sites." Dump stations are available at most established campgrounds, though their configurations may present challenges—a guest mentioned that "the stand pipe sits somewhat higher off the ground than what you may see at other parks, so be prepared to get creative with your waste water hose." Many parks maintain seasonal operations, with Great Smoky Mountains National Park campgrounds typically closing between late October and April. Pet policies generally permit leashed animals throughout RV camping areas.
