Best RV Parks & Resorts near Marion, AR

Several RV parks are situated along the Mississippi River near Marion, Arkansas, providing convenient access to Memphis attractions. Tom Sawyer's RV Park in West Memphis offers year-round camping with full hookups including 50-amp electrical, water, and sewer connections on level sites with riverfront views. "Nice size spaces with square table and benches, concrete pad, grass area view of the River," noted one camper about their experience at site #91. Graceland RV Park & Campground provides big rig friendly spaces year-round with 50-amp service, while EZ Daze RV Park in nearby Southaven, Mississippi features concrete pads and ample room for larger motorhomes and travel trailers.

Despite proximity to Memphis attractions, RV travelers should consider security when planning visits. Some parks report basic or outdated bathroom facilities, though most maintain clean shower houses and restrooms. Free laundry service is available at Tom Sawyer's RV Park, an unusual amenity highlighted in multiple reviews. Pets are permitted at all reviewed campgrounds in the area. Cell service through major carriers remains consistent throughout the region. Spring visitors should check water levels, as Tom Sawyer's occasionally closes during Mississippi River flooding.

    Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park Memphis

    Clean and well maintained with lots of activities

    This is a huge campground and the price for a spot was at least double what we would pay elsewhere (nearly $100). We weren’t able to get a campground at Tom Sawyer and the reviews were all over the place for the rest of the Memphis campgrounds that we decided to go ahead and splurge on this one.

    This was our first Jellystone and I was shocked at how many campers the campground accommodated - there are RVs everywhere. Most of the amenities and services are located at the front of the campground and includes a store and propane, playground, dog run, pool, showers and laundry, gold mining station, and sports courts (basketball, Gaga ball, and basketball). Further back in the campground, was another playground and dog run and a really cute little lake.

    We were staying off-season so there was no activities and they actually deflated the jumping pad, but my kids still had fun and I could see this campground either being a blast in the summer or being a nightmare because of too many people. While we were there, I saw almost no children and several of the camper sites looked like the guests were staying long-term. For a campground that is marketed towards families, the demographics were a bit strange.

    That said, it was super clean, well-organized, the landscaping and sites were maintained, everyone was friendly. We got two loads of wash done and my husband said the showers looked good. There were some restaurants and a Walgreen that looked like they delivered to the campground. WiFi worked and they had cable tv.

    We reserved a basic site, but for more money you could get a site with Adirondack patio furniture and there were plenty of cabins as well. We reserved same day online and they have a system for late check-ins.

    I’m definitely giving Jellystone another go - but next time during the summer. I’m not sure whether this campground is a good base for exploring Memphis - I think if you had a car it would probably be fine as it’s only 20 minutes or so.

    Village Creek State Park Campground

    No Cell Service; No Public Phones: No WIFI Calls at Visitor Center

    PROS 

    Senior discount 

    No fee assessed to make on-line reservations 

    Quiet 

    light view of lake from #57 

    Site 57 has no site next to it or behind it 

    Good distance between campsites 

    Dark sky friendly except for sites near toilet/shower facilities where there is an actual street light 

    Climate controlled toilet/shower facility in campground B 

    Both campground B toilet/shower facilities very clean with ample supply of TP, soap and paper towels 

    Wood picnic table (on concrete pad), pedestal BBQ grill, metal fire ring with cooking grate and metal lantern hook 

    Wide roadway in campground B 

    Small playground 

    Access to lake swimming area from campground B 

    Trash receptacles at toilet/shower facility 

    Lots of deer


    Smaller Walmart in Wynne AR 

    Pops Grill in Wynne real good

    CONS 

    County burn ban in place upon arrival but no signage anywhere alerting of ban. We saw the Arkansas burn ban website and inquired upon checkin if it was enforced and park clerk affirmed ban but we saw many campers had a wood fire burning all the time. So without any signage we understand the confusion and noncompliance. Park should at least place burn ban signage at campground entrance. 

    Site 57 unlevel side-to-side 

    No cell service. 

    No public phone in park. 

    Parks signage states WiFi at park visitor center could be used to make phone calls. We found this not true with our T-MOBILE service as we purposely went to the visitor center to make a WIFI call. There is WIFI at visitors center but only one bar and too weak to transmit a call. So if there is an emergency after visitor center is closed and you need to make a call, good luck, as there is no public phone nor any camp hosts. We drove approximately 8 miles towards Wynne to get sufficient cell signal to make calls and connect with internet. 

    Only free WiFi is at park visitor center. We purchased WiFi from park vendor Viasat $20 unlimited for 3 days for one device. Viasat delivered a good signal within 200 ft of toilet/shower facility so it was useless in our campsite#57. Don’t waste your money! Sewer connection at rear of site pad so bring the looooong stinky slinky! 

    Pets not kept on leash 

    No security gate closure overnight

    T.O. Fuller State Park Campground

    Decent SP near South Memphis.

    T.O. Fuller SP Is a decent campground situated 5 miles from Graceland and about 15 minutes (by car) from downtown Memphis. If you are concerned about staying in South Memphis, this state park is not for you. However, it is surprisingly decent compared to what you would assume based on its location.

    TO fuller state park is expansive and has a state park feel to it. The campground is secluded and has 35-38 campsites. All campsites have 30/50 amp electric, water, picnic table, fire ring and trash hooks. There are no sewer hook ups, but there are two dump stations. This is helpful on busier weekends. The bathhouse is situated in the center of the campground and it has been updated. We did not use it and it was closed due to the pandemic. There is also an updated playground in the campground area that looks very nice. Many of the sites are level and there are a few pull through sites. Several large RVs and travel trailers were able to comfortably fit in these campsites.

    There are several hiking trails, a swimming pool (in season), and a native American history Museum (Chulissa) that is very popular. Most of the facilities were closed, but we were able to hike and enjoyed it. The visitor center staff and Park Rangers were all helpful and very friendly. The visitor center has a number of state park items for purchase. If you are a person that collects patches, stickers, or clothing of the state park you visit visit, TO Fuller’s visitors center has everything you could need.

    In summary, TO Fuller State Park is surprisingly beautiful for its location, but if you cannot get past its location then it is not a good place for you to try and stay. However, if its location doesn’t bother you, you’ll enjoy your weekend and a pretty state park.

    Tom Sawyer's RV Park

    Camp Along the Mississippi River

    Tom Sawyer RV Park is located right along the Mississippi River. The entrance into the park takes you through a wooded area, which has beautiful scenery. Upon arrival they are doing contactless check in and have your car tag and park map located at the front office.

    They have three areas to this campground: two are located on the river and one sits back into the trees with more shade. There is also 2 ponds located on site with fishing allowed. Sites are either concrete or gravel and mostly level. All sites are full hook up with 30/50 amp electric. They also have several bathhouses and laundry facilities, both which were clean.

    We stayed in site 29 (concrete). We could see the river from our site, but it was a walk to get river side. Site had ample shade and was far enough apart from other campers. We also had cell service (ATT) and the park provides wifi.

    Pros: •Clean campground •Spacious sites •Full hook ups with laundry facilities •WiFi included •Gorgeous views

    Cons: •Poison Ivy •Ticks, mosquitoes, snakes, etc...are thick

    Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park

    Hot, Remote, Bugs

    Ok - so this campground is a few things.  Will detail the good/bad below as we saw it:

    Good

    1. This campground is super remote.  Like 20 minutes from downtown Memphis, but 0 bars of cell service.  Really nice for an escape, but hard if trying to work out of here.

    2. This campground is part of a HUUUUUUGE state park.  Like 10000 acres.  

    3. Tons of outdoors activities in this state park.

    Bad

    1. No cell service.  Or Internet.  Or anything.  There is very small service for WIFI available at the visitor center, which is a 5min drive from the park.

    2. Bugs from April - October are pretty bad.  This is in a forest, so they are constantly around.

    3. Bath areas are old.  And full of mosquitos.  Would make sure you understand this before camping.

    4. No Full Hookups (state park).

    EZ Daze RV Park

    Clean, concrete pads, good showers.

    Ez Daze RV Park, Southaven, MS - We stayed one night in November. Easy pull through, level concrete site so we didn’t have to unhitch, very clean bathrooms and showers. They have two regular shower stalls which are extremely shallow and one ADA stall with pull down bench. We didn’t have much interaction with the staff because as soon as I walked in, about 4p, I was directed to find my site information outside in the after hours arrival box. Great if you’re looking for contactless registration or do in fact arrive after hours. There was debris in our space that must have been left by the previous camper and we had to get out and clear it before we could pull into the site. Appeared to be large broken pieces of a heavy plastic bumper. (Reason for 4 stars instead of 5) Strong wifi, cable reception wasn’t great. Code to the bathrooms, which is appreciated especially as the park is located in a business area and backs up to a residential neighborhood. Asphalt in front of office in extremely bad condition so be careful as you drive through. Nice office. They have plenty of long termers and there are two large receptacles outside the front office for package delivery. The park is easy access from I-55 and sits next to several RV dealers. Great place to stay if you want to have a look at some new trailers or motor homes. Also, a Tanger Outlet is just down the road. Full hook up, 50 amp site was $70, 63.00 with our Good Sam card which we think was a bit pricey. Oddly, there was only one trash receptacle in the entire park.

    Delta Ridge RV Park

    Perfect for a single overnight

    Small, tight campground that has no amenities at all, but is priced accordingly. This campground has full hookups at every site, the sites are tight enough together that opposing slides wouldn’t fit, there are no bathrooms, laundry facilities, etc. It is conveniently located very close to I40 and is minutes from shopping and restaurants.

    Added bonus……the WiFi is rock solid. I didn’t bother using my Starlink as I was able to stream from the campgrounds wifi.

    Village Creek State Park Campground

    Really nice, quiet CG

    We have a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow and stayed in site 50 for 1 night in mid September. The CG is clean, well maintained. The CG roads are paved, as are the sites. The sites themselves all seemed pretty level. The CG was very quiet and peaceful and about half full while we were there. Our site, 50, was a pull-through, as were several, but most were back in. There is some shade depending on the site. The bathhouses are showing their age a bit. 

    AT&T coverage was basically nonexistent with 1 bar of 5GE service but 0 MB/s of throughput. We had a clear view to the N at the site, so Starlink was fine with speeds up to 13 MB/s.


Guide to Marion

Campsites near Marion, Arkansas provide convenient access to both Memphis attractions and Mississippi River views. Located on the west bank of the Mississippi River in eastern Arkansas, the area sits at approximately 214 feet above sea level and experiences hot, humid summers and mild winters. Overnight RV sites near Marion typically range from basic gravel pads to concrete slabs with riverfront views.

What to do

Barge watching along the Mississippi: Tom Sawyer's RV Park offers front-row views for watching river traffic. "Watching the tug boats moving up and down the river all day and night was relaxing. Nice little bath house and laundry in each section," notes Stacey in her review of the Tom Sawyer's RV Park.

Local food exploration: Delta Ridge RV Park provides access to regional cuisine within walking distance. "We walked over and had the all you can eat seafood buffet. There is a fully stocked grocery store next to the park as well," mentions Stacey T. from her stay at Delta Ridge RV Park.

Agricultural exhibits: The Agricenter offers seasonal farming displays and educational opportunities. "This campground is right on the Agricenter. Squeeze in! Drive Thru sites. There is a Farmers Market on site. Picked up some fruits and plants before heading out," writes Laurie about the Agricenter RV Park.

Memphis music history: Graceland tours remain a popular daytrip from Marion. "The park has all amenities needed for a nice family vacation....laundry, gift shop, swimming pool, playground and more. They do take Good Sam discount and the sites are good sized with 50/30 amp and FHU," explains Jeff & Steff about Graceland RV Park.

What campers like

Free laundry facilities: A rare amenity highlighted by multiple campers at Tom Sawyer's. "The free laundry facilities were very clean and nice with several machines. We was there from march till November," reports Kristy J. about her extended stay.

Sunrise views over water: Morning riverside views rank high among camper favorites. "Loved waking up every morning to the sunrise over the Mississippi River (2 young kids means we get up early 😁), watching the barges and running around in the big grassy areas!" shares Pat&Amanda D. from Hollywood Casino RV Park.

Concrete pads for level parking: EZ Daze RV Park receives praise for its well-designed sites. "Level, nice concrete pads. Good hookups. Workers all very pleasant. Didnt get to use the pool or other amenities but they looked nice. Quiet location close to gas station and stores," notes deb K. at EZ Daze RV Park.

Proximity to Memphis attractions: The short drive to city amenities appeals to many campers. "Quick and easy drive back over the Mississippi to get into Memphis. Local grocery store is very close though the area is a bit run down," mentions Pat&Amanda D. about their experience at Tom Sawyer's RV Park.

What you should know

Flooding concerns: River levels can impact campground availability, particularly at riverside locations. "This campground is right on the Mississippi River, only problem is if the river is over its banks, then the campground is closed. We had to keep checking to see if the river was down, campground was cleaned up and open," cautions Christine U. about Tom Sawyer's RV Park.

Varied shower quality: Bathroom facilities range from outdated to recently renovated. "Bathrooms are clean and functional, just need a bit of cosmetic updating (peeling paint, missing tiles)," notes Renee H. from her stay at Graceland RV Park & Campground.

Airport noise at some locations: Consider airplane patterns when booking certain campgrounds. "Incoming flights to Memphis start flying overhead at 4:15 am. They take a direct path over top of this park. They haven't stopped flying in every few minutes or so since then," warns Thomas R. about Southaven RV Park.

Site maintenance varies: Some RVers report inconsistent upkeep at certain locations. "As a result of neglect the initial sites to which the management directed me were not functioning properly. I tried three sites and each either had not electricity or no water," shares Bill H. about his experience at Graceland RV Park.

Tips for camping with families

Look for spacious grassy areas: Kids appreciate room to run at riverfront parks. "We ate dinner in the shade due to the smart layout of the sites, and as the breeze picked up we could enjoy the scenery in earnest for the first time. As the sun began to set, we walked along the river and climbed on huge logs and ran up and down the river bank," recounts Greg S. about Tom Sawyer's RV Park.

Seek out playground access: Some parks offer dedicated play areas for children. "This park is in a part of Shelby Farms Park which is a 4,500 acres of lakes, bike and running trails, playgrounds and so much more. The park also has plenty of events to keep you entertained. And, there are bison!!" explains Melisa J. about Agricenter RV Park.

Consider unique transportation options: Special shuttles can create memorable experiences. "The highlight of our stay here, however, was the opportunity to take a free pink Cadillac limo ride to Marlowe's for superb BBQ. Our children loved this opportunity," shares Jeremy H. about his family's experience at Graceland RV Park.

Tips from RVers

Access considerations: The approach to some parks can be challenging to navigate. "The drive into the park is not very pretty but once in the park, it is VERY nice. The staff keep the area clean, they are aware of who is supposed there and who is not," advises Linda A. about Tom Sawyer's RV Park.

Security options: Seek parks with controlled access when traveling with valuable equipment. "I felt completely safe at the camp ground. They a have a 24-hour security guard at the entrance and you must sign-in to enter the property," reports Erika P. from Graceland RV Park & Campground.

Short-term vs. extended stays: Different parks cater to different lengths of stay. "Perfect campground for a pass through campground. This RV Park was conveniently located off I40, easy to get into, very clean, super friendly owners, we felt safe, very laid back atmosphere with minimal paperwork," reports Thomas H. about Delta Ridge RV Park.

Generator policies: Not all parks permit generator usage. Check accommodations for hookup details before booking RV sites near Marion, Arkansas. "No frills RV Park, and sites are a bit close together, but it's right on the Mississippi, and is wonderful views of the river! Some of the sites only have 50 and 30 amp power," warns Jenna L. about power limitations at Tom Sawyer's RV Park.
