Tips & Recommendations

1Reserve campsites through Recreation.gov for Corps of Engineers and TVA campgrounds, booking as early as the six-month advance window opens for popular summer dates and holiday weekends.
2Verify your RV length against site specifications, as some riverside and mountain locations have tighter turning radiuses despite advertised maximum lengths.
3Bring leveling blocks for sites at campgrounds like Dale Hollow Damsite and Anderson Road, where lakeside terrain may require adjustment even on seemingly level pads.
4Check local water quality reports and consider bringing extra drinking water for campgrounds drawing from lake sources during summer algae blooms.
