Discover Nickajack Lake RV rentals for memorable road trips

Created by the Nickajack Dam, Nickajack Lake is a Tennessee gem, located by the city of Chattanooga. It stretches from the Nickajack Dam all the way to the Chickamauga Dam, which is a distance of 46 miles. This stretch of the Tennessee River is often called the Grand Canyon of Tennessee, and as soon as you set eyes on the lake, it is easy to see why. The steep cliffs and spectacular scenery of the gorge make it a very popular place for people to search for an RV in Marion County and the surrounding towns of Jasper, and Chattanooga.

Charissa was wonderful to deal with!The camper was delivered on time and set up without us having to do anything! And when our trip was over,they arrived on time to pick it up. All we had to do was collect our belongings and hit the road. Will definitely rent from them in the future!
