I've enjoyed eight great years of interaction with thousands of other small travel trailer owners. Thanks for all your support, and hopefully a few of us will meet again somewhere in the woods or on the road! - Denny

General Comments
Nice TVA campground about 30 miles north of Knoxville, on Lake Norris. Boat launch, paddle boats, kayaks and paddle boards can be rented. There are no full-hookups, but a honey wagon service is available that will come to your site and empty your storage tanks. Most of the heavily wooded sites are seasonal, so we are focused in this review on the short-term (which are mostly lake view/front).
