RV camping options near Greenfield, Tennessee provide convenient overnight stops for travelers between Nashville and Memphis. Located in the western part of the state with rolling terrain and elevations around 400-500 feet, this area experiences hot summers and mild winters. Several campgrounds offer full-service sites with concrete pads that require minimal leveling adjustments.
What to do
Fishing opportunities: Eagles Nest RV Park provides access to Kentucky Lake just 1500 feet away with free boat parking for guests. "Eagle's Nest RV Park is a hidden gem right next to Kentucky Lake and Paris Landing. It has all concrete pads with full service utility kiosks. Each campsite has plenty of room and comes with its own patio and cable TV connection," notes one camper.
Explore historic sites: Within driving distance of Parkers Crossroads RV Park, you'll find Civil War battlefields and historical markers. The campground itself offers on-site recreation: "Large pond with catch and release fishing. Small camp store with cute items and necessities. Firewood and ice for sale."
Walking trails: Several campgrounds maintain walking paths for exercise and pet relief. At Southern Comfort RV Park, campers appreciate the "nice walking trail" with "pet friendly" accommodations, making it suitable for travelers with animals who need regular outdoor time.
What campers like
Clean facilities: Many RV parks near Greenfield maintain spotless bathhouses and common areas. One visitor to Milan City RV Park commented it was "Nice and quiet. The lots are a little closer than I like but everything's here."
Helpful staff: Several campgrounds feature exceptional service from owners and managers. At Coyote View RV Park, a stranded traveler noted: "The owners Lowell and Jill are THE BEST HUMANS. We were on a cross country journey when our slide suddenly stopped working... Lowell looked at the slide the next day. He ended up having to go basically wire by wire to find out what was broken."
Pond features: On-site water features provide visual appeal and activities at certain locations. A Parker's Crossroads guest mentioned the park was "very clean and well organized" with owners seen "on the campground several times a day" and a "great pond with ducks and geese."
What you should know
Spacing considerations: RV parks in this region vary considerably in site spacing. At Jackson RV Park, the park layout requires specific navigation: "When you pull into the park you will need to drive through the park and back up the other lane and the sites are all pull thru."
Water pressure variations: Some campgrounds have higher-than-normal water pressure requiring regulators. At Parkers Crossroads, campers are advised to "use a reducer as their water pressure is high."
Highway noise: Several parks sit near major highways, creating ambient noise. The Century Casino RV Park (formerly Lady Luck) provides "paved pull through with hook ups" where "my dogs got to chase rabbits and walk along the river" despite the proximity to roads.
Seasonal adjustments: While most parks operate year-round, seasonal amenities vary. "They have a pool, which was closed for the season, and we loved the pond area," noted one winter visitor to Parkers Crossroads.
Tips for camping with families
Playground access: Limited playgrounds exist in the area, with improvements planned at some locations. One family at Parkers Crossroads mentioned: "The only reason why it is not a 5 star is because we wished they had a nicer playground area for the kids. I will say that the paperwork they shared with us shows plans to incorporate a new playground."
Safety considerations: Some campgrounds have terrain features requiring caution with children. A reviewer warned about Parker's Crossroads: "There is also a several foot drop off that if you are not very careful could cause harm (not safe)."
Entertainment options: Bring your own activities as entertainment amenities are limited. Joy-O RV Park is described as a "simple stop over spot. Spots are level and gravel lined with decent hook ups," but offers limited dedicated family recreation facilities.
Tips from RVers
Leveling requirements: Many sites require some adjustment for complete leveling. At Milan City Park, one camper mentioned there's "a highway next to the park with trucks occasionally engine braking," suggesting positioning your RV with bedroom areas away from the road side.
Service availability: For RVers needing repairs, certain campgrounds offer on-site assistance. A camper at Coyote View noted: "If your RV needs service, CAMP HERE! The bathrooms and laundry facilities at the park are very nice."
Hookup positioning: Site layout may require extended sewer hoses at some locations. A visitor at Parkers Crossroads explained: "We would have positioned again so we didn't have to get out 25' of sewer hose to dump our back tank, but there's a ditch in front of the site that would prevent an easy back in to hitch back up."
