The Great Outdoors

Your RV rental in Knoxville, TN is a perfect way to get outdoors in one of the most beautiful places in the U.S. There are several lakes and state parks in the area, and plenty of options for biking, hiking, boating, and camping. Big Ridge State Park is a part of the Appalachian Ridge and has over 15 miles of hiking trails of varying intensities. Norris Dam State Park is practically next door, and with an expansive 800 miles of shoreline with swimming coves and boats available for rent, it’s easy to have a great day on the water. Knoxville is also home to one of the coolest playgrounds for adults and children alike – Navitat in the Ijams Nature Center, roughly three miles from downtown. This adventure in the canopy has six “adventure trails” that span out from the central treehouse and feature nets, bridges, tunnels, and ziplines.One thing that you must do with your RV rental in Knoxville, Tennessee is visit the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The mountains get their name from the ethereal blue mist that hovers over the valleys. When driving or hiking through these mountains you can see wildlife such as elk, black bears, and white-tailed deer. The Appalachian Trail goes through the park, and there are plenty of day hikes on the trail. To get the most spectacular view in the park, hike up to Clingman’s Dome – the highest point in the Smokies. While the best way to experience the park is to go out on the hiking or mountain biking trails, there are several breathtaking viewing points along the nearly 400 miles of scenic routes you can drive in your luxury Knoxville RV rental.

RV Parks

There are quite a few places to camp out with your travel trailer rental in Knoxville. There aren’t a ton of public transit options going in to the city, so your best bet would be to drive a few minutes closer and park your RV rental in the lot at the University Commons Walmart on the southwestern side of the city, then take a short bus ride in to the heart of Knoxville. The city’s public transit system (KAT) provides buses and free trolleys, or if you want to burn some calories while you explore, you can use their bike sharing system!Big Ridge and Norris Dam State Parks both have RV campsites with electric and water hookups. Just outside of the city there are several RV parks. The beautifully wooded Southlake RV Park has lakeside RV sites, and it is a great location to be able to explore the city and surrounding parks. If you are taking your camper rental north of Knoxville, Volunteer Park Family Campground is pet-friendly and has both camping and RV sites. It’s open year-round and has a heated pool, clubhouse, and children’s playground.For campsites closer to the Smoky Mountains, Creekside and Pine Mountain RV Parks are great options. Creekside has stream fishing and homey comfort with laundry, cable, and free WiFi. Pine Mountain has paved roads and an open feel, and you can’t beat the views. Both are just a couple of minutes outside of Pigeon Forge, which has plenty of activities for the whole family – think rollercoasters, go-carts, and putt-putt. Start your search for an RV in Knoxville and get ready to enjoy all these parks have to offer!

Due to circumstances that were beyond our control, we booked with Bary and Athena very last minute. These two really know how to roll out the red carpet! Bary even delivered it outside of his regular delivery zone. Communication between our hosts was top notch! We communicated multiple times a day leading up to our trip.One thing about the camper that I absolutely loved was that it had a large closet that was used for a proper pantry. This is a luxury to any camper owner (or renter, in my case)! I was pleasantly surprised at the layout of this camper. It is different than any other that I have ever seen. It doesn't have the traditional dining seating. Instead, it has a huge counter and barstools. This layout offers a wealth of space that is surrounded by a panoramic view of windows. Mornings in the kitchen were my favorite! My tall 12 year old slept soundly on the provided cot each night. Although we did not use it for this trip, there is a swinging door with a fireplace and tv that pivots so that cozy nights could be spent in bed. (Cue Christmas in the Smokies Hallmark classic!)

We loved the layout. It was perfect for us with 3 kids. It was decorated beautifully and had all the amenities you would need. We would definitely reserve this camper again. Carrie and Cliff were excellent hosts and made our stay so easy. Thanks guys.

The RV is perfect for our needs of 4 people. The bunks and bed is spacious and everything is easy to hook up for use. We love the awning to give us some outside shade and it’s easy to use. Andrea and her husband are easy to communicate with and make the trip stress free. Thanks!
