The developer proposing a 250 to 400-site RV resort in New Hope, Tenn., played to a tough crowd Monday (April 24) night as he presented early details on a possible luxury campground on the Tennessee River, according to Chattanooga Times Free Press.
Aaron Hillman, an Arizona-based Red Moon Development architect, told the standing-room-only crowd at the New Hope Fire Hall nothing was set in stone while contending the company wouldn’t propose investing an estimated $30 million in a resort if it was expected to fail or hurt the community.
Hillman said if the project moves forward — which requires a number of steps, including approval by the town’s Board of Mayor and Aldermen — it would most likely be a 250-site layout on the front portion of the property nearest the river. The resort, he said, targets luxury RV owners who invest up to $1 million or more in their high-end RV rides.
