Work Campground (very few recreational campers)

We stayed here for ~2.5 months. Will detail good/bad comments below:

Good

1. Owner. Wes. He is awesome.

2. Safety. This is next to police academy, and has several students living in it - never felt danger here.

3. Away from it all. But still close to Memphis. About 15 minutes to downtown, but within cell service.

Bad

1. Workers mainly. Ton of construction, trade, and 0500-1700 workers. This was great from a sleeping standpoint (no one was ever loud) but kids didn't have a scene so to speak.

2. Exposed. In the sun, rain, wind, etc. It was an old mobile-home park, so very exposed to elements.
