Raccoon Mountain Caverns & Campground
Chattanooga, Tennessee
55 RV Sites, 9 Cabins, 22 Tent Sites, 5 Glamping Sites
4.85 reviewsRaccoon Mountain Caverns and Campground in Chattanooga, Tennessee, offers 55 full-hookup RV sites, nine cabins, 22 tent sites, and five glamping sites at the entrance to a 5.5-mile guided cave system, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 60 feet. Compact and deluxe pull-through categories join rustic back-in sites, with a pool, fitness center, and clubhouse.
Fifty-five sites span compact pull-thru, compact pull-thru max tow, deluxe pull-thru, and rustic back-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The compact max-tow category is a thoughtful distinction for smaller rigs with a vehicle in tow. Nine cabins, 22 tent sites, and five glamping sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Three policies to know: no hammocks or car camping on any site, no tents on RV sites, RVs manufactured before 2000 require photo approval, and you must be 21 to book.
An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a fitness center, clubhouse, pavilion, basketball, shuffleboard, corn hole, walking trails, hiking, a playground, and dog park besides.
Sleeping beside the cave entrance is the singular draw — one of the Southeast's most accessible wild cavern experiences, with Lookout Mountain and downtown Chattanooga close.
Summer and fall foliage drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

Very helpful and friendly staff! We had an issue with our reservation (my fault when booking, not the campground's) and Raccoon Mountain Campground accommodated us and updated our reservation. The bathrooms and grounds were kept clean.
There are cave tours on site. We did the Crystal Palace Walking Tour and...Show more
