Chattanooga is nice. Do the Hamilton Place area.We are leaving kansas city, where do you all stop for the night. Last time we stopped north Atlanta and I think that was too far, but it was nice the second day. I was thinking of trying somewhere between Nashville and Chattanooga. I need to keep the hotel price down so maybe staying away from the big cities
Just curious, are you from this area, or just know this area? I live about 25 minutes from Ringgold.I’d go just past the 24/75 merge and drive 15 more minutes and get a room
off exit 350 in Ringgold
Or drive 20 minutes from exit 350 longer and stay in Dalton
We will be driving from Houston, TX area. We have always flown before. We now have 2 special needs kids and have more stuff, so we are driving. I hope it is a smart choice.

Decided to stop in Savannah, lots of options there and we will have a shorter drive to Disney in the AM. I booked Springhill Suites near the airport.
Diane, as you know Val & I did that drive several times when looking for a home in Orlando and ultimately moving here. Without a doubt, take the "inland" route going north. There is no way you can avoid serious city traffic issues going north on I-95. Our preferred route was I-95 north to I-26 and I-77 toward Charlotte. Then on to I-81 until past Harrisburg. From there we would get on I-84 to cross the rest of PA and NY north of NYC.With that in mind, which route do you all suggest? 95 straight through, or the one further west? I
Thanks Jeff! Exactly what I needed.Diane, as you know Val & I did that drive several times when looking for a home in Orlando and ultimately moving here.

That's going to be my issue. We may be able to travel only during the week. If I could leave on Friday morning, and drive to Rocky Mount for the night, then leave around 6am on Sat morning, it might be okay.Ehh. We've driven to WDW three times to/from NYC and always take 95. We leave NYC at around 4am on a Saturday and that allows us to pretty much miss all the mid-atlantic traffic hotspots. We've never had any traffic whatsoever in SC/NC/GA.
Coming home we leave WDW fairly early, around 6AM (usually on a saturday) and haven't typically had any issues, even going through D.C.
I think a lot of traffic on 95 can be avoided on weekends and proper timing. I concede that during weekday rush hours it's probably miserable.
We ended up staying at Chattanooga choo choo hotel. My kids really liked staying in a train car. ThanksChattanooga is nice. Do the Hamilton Place area.
