The best vintage trailer rentals near Knoxville, Tennessee

Deep in the Smoky Mountain foothills, Knoxville is a big city with a knack for nature. Camp here to discover the birthplace of the Tennessee River, rolling hardwood forests, and six national parks. Whether you're paddling or exploring on horseback, it's easy to find solitude just outside the urban hustle. Big adventures await in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Here, forested peaks invite you to explore the Appalachian south. Spend an afternoon hiking to the summit of Mount LeConte. At night, marvel at the light show from 19 firefly species. With developed campgrounds, horse camps, and backcountry camping available, the Smokies have something for everyone. Are you traveling during the summer? Beat the famous Tennessee heat at Norris Dam State Park. Just north of Clinton, this park on the Norris Reservoir is your gateway to cruising nearly 700 miles of shoreline. From the two campgrounds with RV sites and rustic tent sites, you can reach the marina. (Pontoon rentals are a go!) For a taste of the diverse camping options near Knoxville, explore the cozy RV parks of Pigeon Forge. The amusement parks are a hit with families. In the Cherokee National Forest, you find wilderness cabins near prime whitewater rafting spots. By the way, for the best adventure weather, consider planning your trip for spring or fall. The snowy winters and muggy summers might limit your hiking time.

Weekend Trip to Magnolia Moon Farm

Great spot. Scott and Heidi are some of the most generous hosts I have met. They are very warm and welcoming, and being greeted with a drink of my choice was an amazing way to unwind from a long road trip. The trailer was cute, clean and cozy. It feels remote and back country, and yet it was close enough to the Tail of the Dragon that I could be there at first light. I'd definitely do it again!

Weekend Trip to Gorgeous Stays Glampground

Wendi & Scott thought of ALL the details! Our stay was absolutely lovely in the 1962 “canned ham” — from the “camp store” in the lodge, to the clean & cozy bath house, + the communal fire pits…our stay was one we absolutely cannot wait to relive! We fully plan to return & are looking forward to another wonderful stay here! Memories made, for sure! Sincerely, thank y’all for making this trip extra-special! :)

Weekend Trip to Wild at Heart Sanctuary

I had an amazing time staying at the Daisy Camper. Emily was so kind and welcoming! As a solo female traveler I felt very safe here! The camper was so adorable and cozy and had everything I needed! She even has an outdoor shower!
