About Harrison

Just a short drive from Chattanooga, the city of Harrison is a rural and small-town getaway with many scenic features. One of the community’s gems is Harrison Bay State Park, a 1,200 acre park with nearly 40 miles of Chickamauga Lake shoreline. This is a local favorite for camping, fishing and all types of water recreation. Harrison is also known for the famed Bear Trace Golf Course, which was designed by retired American professional golfer Jack Nicklaus. Located approximately 20 minutes north of downtown Chattanooga, this course is surrounded by both water and heavily-wooded land. Housing options in Harrison include lake front properties, new construction, and rural living.
