RV Rental Cleveland, TN

When you book a rental RV in Cleveland, TN, you can explore beautiful natural areas. Red Clay State Historic Park is a unique experience for anyone who wants to learn more about the history of Native Americans in the area. The park is at the site where the Cherokee held general councils, and was also the site where the Trail of Tears began. In 1937, Harrison Bay became the first State Park in Tennessee. This recreational park on the bay has a pool, marina, bike trail, and a Jack Nicklaus designed golf course, as well as places to camp in the lush wooded area. Avid hikers will want to head over to the southern portion of the Cumberland Trail for a scenic day hike.

You can head East in your Cleveland RV rental and explore the Southern portion of Cherokee National Forest. It is divided in two sections by Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and the northern half is only about three hours away. There are numerous hiking and biking trails in the southern part of the park, and scenic drives you can take in your Cleveland motorhome rental, including the Ocoee Scenic Byway. The Ocoee River was used for the canoe slaloms in the 1996 Summer Olympics, and people come from all over to kayak and canoe on this famous river. Get an adrenaline rush on the Ocoee on a white-water rafting tour, or if you’d rather experience nature on a boat that probably won’t flip, head one river over to the Hiwassee Wildlife Refuge for a guided tour with a naturalist. Want to get a bird’s eye view of the river and forest? Take a zipline or canopy tour and see the world from a new perspective!
