There is no camping within the city itself, so you may need a car, or other reliable transportation to get to a campground if you are planning on camping during your term with SECC.
Hipcamp is similar to Airbnb and Vrbo - local homeowners/land owners rent their land for tent or rv camping. This is a cheap option to camp in the Chattanooga area. You can browse the site without registering, but will need to make a profile to book. Use your best judgement when selecting a host.
