I gave one star but shouldn't do even that. We stayed at the campground and while we liked the cave the staff at the campgrounds sucked. We walked into the campground office and the KID behind the counter had his feet up on the desk and was on his cell phone and actaully finished his phone call before helping us. The grounds were dirty and if you could find someone (staff) over twenty to help you, good luck. I have stayed at many campgrounds and found far better for the price. Never again. I'll be staying at KOA next time I visit TN, is ever, as some other sites had recommended instead of Raccoon Caverns

Jonathan, the tour guide, showed us around the racoon mountain caverns. He told us stories about the previous cave owners, and explained the formation of the caves. This would be the first place I would visit if I returned to Chattanooga.

The visit to Raccoon Mountain Caverns was incredible. My family, along with another gentleman, were the only people on the tour. Our guide, Jonathan, was exceptional. He took the time to point out nature within the cave, and explain the process of the cave formation.
A few years ago, we visited Ruby Falls. It was very touristy, and not nature-oriented. I would recommend this tour for anyone who wants to learn about caves.
