About Harrison Bay State Park
Harrison Bay State Park is a 1,200-acre (4.9 km2) state demonstration park developed by the Tennessee Valley Authority in the 1930s along the shores of Chickamauga Lake. Opened in 1937, the bay gets it name from the now partially submerged town of Harrison, Tennessee. It was built at the same time as Booker T. Washington State Park. The park has a 4.2-mile (6.8-km) hiking path around the lake and has facilities including a playground, a golf course, tennis courts, a restaurant, a campground, and a marina.
