There’s nothing better than a summer vacation spent in Tennessee, but every once in a while you may feel the need to switch up the classic campground experience. Sure, you can go hiking and swimming and enjoy an ice cream cone on the front porch, but have you ever spent the night in a floating cabin? Hales Bar Marina and Resort is located just outside Chattanooga, and it offers one of the best and most unique camping experiences in the state. Learn more about it below, and perhaps book a night for yourself!
Hales Bar Marina & Resort is cheekily known as a "Redneck Bora Bora" and is located on the ever-beautiful Nickajack Lake, right along the Tennessee River. The resort is just a stone's throw from Chattanooga so you can run into town for supplies or dinner out.
It's the floating cabins, however, that are the most popular. The floating cabins on Nickajack Lake offer incredible views, and you can fish off the front OR the back of your cabin. How incredible is that?!
There are land cabins available if you'd rather walk to the water rather than sleep on it. Keep in mind that these cabins are meant to be functional and clean, so expect more of a camping experience than a hotel stay.
There are multiple cabin layouts available, ranging from one to three bedrooms, both floating and on land. Each cabin is equipped with a combination of bed sizes and some even have bunk beds. All cabins include full bathrooms and kitchens.
