Camping
Geoffrey Greene says, "I believe any of these campgrounds would be pleasant. I've spent time at Norris Dam SP and Big Ridge SP...they were destinations going back to when I was a kid."
Campgrounds located west will have heavy traffic around the rally site, probably to the I40/I75 split, thins out somewhat after that.
State park campgrounds are 30-35 miles north of Knoxville via I75
