The campsite was nice. It was divided, the fire pit and the table was up a small hill behind the camper.
The bathrooms were clean and showers were great. The toilets at least in the women’s bathroom the hinges are on the wrong side so the doors do not open wide.
The area is nice. We weren’t able to check out the trails due to an injury I received the week before but the area is so nice.
There were three animals on display ate the animal rehab and owl, Henry (red-tail hawk) and Scarlet (unsure what she was)
A nice place to relax and recharge.
Guide
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.
TravelerNice park, good facilities, but no shower. The description said there was a 'bathhouse', I assumed it had a shower.
There was a lot of traffic late at night with people parking and staying in their cars for about an hour and a truck that visited each one, not sure what was happening \-:
There's a highway next to the park with trucks occasionally engine braking.

This is one of our go to areas , no power at sites , water only , decently clean bath house . Lake access and hiking everywhere . Park rangers are quite nice here . We had a scout troop staying in the campground which I found odd as there are three specific scout areas . Beautiful fall colors
ScoutNice and quiet The lots are a little closer than I like but everything's here.
GuideDo not trust your GPS to get you here. Make sure you have plenty of gas before leaving any town. Study the direction map link on the web site. There are no signs until you get there. Be sure you're going to the right campground. CSP is big and GPS will take you to many places (wrong places) in the park, many trail but useable roads. Once here, enjoy the tranquility and very friendly, helpful people of the area. T Maybe and Verizon work fine. Didn't try the camp wifi. Did not use the bath house. In general, Tennessee State parks do a very good job. Site was not level but paved. Not crowded at all. Large spaceous sites.
GuideChickasaw state park is a wonderful park filled with activities for all. Paddle boating, hiking, geocaching, canoeing and kayaking and also horse back riding.
GuideWe only stayed here one night passing through and we missed out! There’s so many areas with so much to do a weekend wouldn’t be enough! We liked our site right next to park but very nice area all with great sites. No service at RV campground but complementary WI-FI we were able to FaceTime and iMessage.
TravelerCampground pretty full on the weekends. Enjoyed fishing and golfing
LegendThis 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.
GuideI like the improvements and camp hosts are great!
RangerCamp site (Teardrop camping)
We briefly stayed at this camp site overnight. There is an electric/water hook up on the site + picnic table and a fire ring.
We were there during the off season but there were still lots of people but it still was a pleasant stay. Tells that this CG is popular.

Facilities/ Amenities
Bathroom / showers were clean and well maintained. Dumpster is a bit of a walk.

Surrounding area
The CG is in the woods so you'd definitely feel connected to nature. Haven't explored the surrounding area enough to leave a review.

GuideA nice campground with blacktop sites. Campground is hilly but most sites are fairly flat. Very nice hot showers. They also have tent camping, cabins, and camping with your horse. Small lake within walking distance to the RV campground. Camp store, gym, small amphitheater. Wifi was a free signup for 3 days but was too slow to be useful.
GuideThe Google had the phone number to AL when thinking we called TN. The park deserved a longer st.ay than we had time for...its really pretty. Pay attention to your site location with Hwy 100. It was loud on our site 43 since we backed up to the highway.
GuideThis camping area is great for small to medium sided campers.
The newly renovated camping spots have a nice big table and fire pit.
The camp spot has a bunch of trails and a lake nearby. Firewood for sale on site as well as a small store with ice and snacks.
GuideThis 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.
ScoutVery first time camping in our pop up camper. The campsite was beautiful and the facilities were extremely clean. We had issues getting our popup down but luckily, had the friendliest camper neighbors who attempted to help us. The views during the fall here are breathtaking. We got to hike through the trails around the lake and pet the horses at Wranglers. When we were leaving, the staff had started setting up Christmas decorations and lights and that was just as beautiful. Would definitely go back for unplugging, strictly nature purposes (WiFi was very spotty).
ScoutLots of family activities and great history behind park and Chickasaw warriors.
GuideThis was our first trip out, so we didn't know what we didn't know. The campsites were close together. Overall it was fairly peaceful. Lots of kids. A very good "get your feet wet" campground.
ScoutGot us in late held our spot
ScoutSo far not impressed. Only one bathroom working and is in disrepair.
GuideThis was my first time at Chickasaw but it won’t be my last! Beautiful location, extremely friendly staff. Locals were kind, welcoming, and helpful. I spent one night here on my way south. My stay was peaceful, tranquil, and restorative. The campsite was amazing. Dazzled me with a perfect lakeside symphony of nature at its finest and a breathtaking view when I awoke.
GuideNice state campground we arrive for one night and that was just about right there’s several trails around the lake you can go boating in the lake with the kayak if you wish though there’s paddle boats for rent camp pads are pretty large depending what you get we stayed in 97 which was pretty great drove in with a van and then just set up a quick Premitive site scenic walkways lots of goose Pooh around the lakeBut my girlfriend dared me to go swimming anyway once inside the water it was much nicer we are opportunities to swim in a lake with fish nibbling at your feet
TravelerWe came in late and they told us to just find an empty spot. Staff were great. Only thing I did not like was the swimming area. Full of Goose poo.
ScoutEven though my campsite was between the bathhouse and the playground (tent area 93) it was a peaceful stay. Would stay again but maybe not that .
ScoutIt was nice and enjoyable
GuideOne of the nicest parks in West Tennessee but not for RV's over 26 feet. Great hiking.
Horse camping in Tennessee offers a unique blend of scenic trails and well-equipped facilities, making it a perfect getaway for equestrian enthusiasts.
