Best Equestrian Camping near Arlington, TN

Agricenter International RV Park near Memphis offers limited support for equestrian visitors. The full-hookup RV park provides water, electric, and sewer connections in a space primarily designed for recreational vehicles and tent camping. Sites feature picnic tables and access to shower facilities, though these are located in the farmer's market building adjacent to the campground. Reviews indicate the campground functions more as a convenient base for exploring Memphis attractions rather than a destination for outdoor recreation. Campers reference The Dyrt for top tips on camping near Arlington, Tennessee.

Located approximately 25 miles from Arlington, this campground serves primarily as overnight accommodations for travelers or workers rather than an equestrian destination. The park does not offer horse corrals, dedicated trailer parking for horses, or direct access to bridle trails. Cook's Lake RV Resort and Campground, another option in the region, similarly lacks dedicated horse facilities despite allowing pets. The campground environment consists mostly of exposed sites that formerly served as a mobile home park, with minimal natural barriers between camping spots. Horse owners seeking riding opportunities must trailer to public lands or private riding facilities in the surrounding area, as neither campground connects directly to equestrian trail systems.

    Cook's Lake RV Resort and Campground

    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.

    Agricenter International RV Park

    Close to a lot of attractions but mostly buddy sites

    This is the kind of RV park that you come to to go look at the close attractions. Almost all of the sites are buddy sites where your front door is facing your neighbor's. There is no privacy at all and we actually ran into a problem with our "buddy neighbor". The problem was taken care of by the manager of the park but those are things to keep in mind. They are full hookup sites and offer up to 3 months of stay. We gave it only 3 stars because this is not the kind of park we are used to, we are used to more open sites.

    The bathrooms are quite a walk if you are further into the park. There are 2 restrooms with a shower in each. One bathroom was really clean and had a nicely tiled shower. The other bathroom was always dirty and wasn't updated like the other one. The bathrooms are actually located in the farmer's market building which isn't in the RV park itself. 

    Local attractions: The Farmer's Market (it's an easy walk from the park), Graceland (was about 30-40 min from the park), The Miami Zoo (was about 20 min from the park). I am sure there are a lot more but we weren't able to get to them in the time that we stayed.

    Full service campground next to the farmers market.

    Full hookups and convenient location. We have stayed there several times.

    Agricenter International RV Park

    Safe place to stay

    It is definitely not the nicest Park we have been to- laundry facilities are run down, two of the dryers will tear up your clothes, and the bathrooms are never clean. They are working on adding gravel to the spaces, right now though when it rains you are in a swamp. The spaces are also very close together. All that being said, not a terrible monthly price, the trash cans are shared and the wifi is slow in the evening, but you're not paying extra for that or water or power. It is quiet, everyone keeps to themselves, they say it is 3 month maximum but I do know of some who are staying longer. It is in the nicer part of Memphis, so if you are looking for a safe place to stay here, this is it. If you are looking for a relaxing getaway in the country, it is not.

    Agricenter International RV Park

    Parking Lot

    This is basically a parking lot for RV’s, not a campground. Campers are stacked on top of each other. I would only recommend this place if you are working an event at the Agricenter or if you are passing through town and desperate for a place to stay.
