Running Water Creek is a unique, fully off grid campground just 20 minutes to downtown Chattanooga. We have 80+ campsites spread out over 120 acres. Most of the roads are accessible in any small car, but some roads require 4x4 (they're marked with a sign). We have a bath house with toilets, showers, and sinks and even offer hot water! Our well and cabins are all solar powered as we are not on the electric grid. Some info about the property: -we DO NOT have water or power hookups -we have gravel roads with a 5 MPH speed limit on the property (if you drive too fast the roads will seem rough) -we are right next to a highway and train tracks so there will be some noise (some days are better than others and we have no way of predicting how many trains will/will not go by) -none of our campsites have picnic tables (please plan accordingly) -most campsites have fire rings built, but if you choose a site without one you need to build your own

Great sight, bathrooms were very clean and great water pressure and really hot water. This was an awsome sight to be very secluded. Some awsome off road trails as well.

It was a bit rustic, but completely quiet and enjoyable. The bathrooms were in good order with hot water for showering. If the clouds were not around, the stars would have been beautiful!

Nice grounds, nice clean shower and bathroom. The downside is the loud train going by every 1-2 hours so that woke me up throughout the night. Very loud. So def unless you sleep very deep I don’t recommend

We enjoyed the short distance to downtown Chattanooga. Unfortunately, the campsite is next to a very active train track, and the sites are not marked.
