"The location is conveniently situated halfway between Nashville and Memphis at I-40 on Exit 108, making it easily accessible."
"Parker’s Crossroads is located very conveniently off of I-40 and the park is gorgeous! They have some long term campers, storage, and an RV Repair Center on site."
"We stayed at the Cub Lake campground, which I prefer as the sites are treed and shaded, unlike most sites at Pin Oak. We preferred the sites towards the middle of the campground."
"We went to the beach at Cub Lake for hours every day! There were several playgrounds around the campgrounds, I'm sure we tried them all. "
"There are a few lakes in the area. Pin Oak is the only motor lake. Cub lake has a larger swim area with paddle boat, Jon boat and kayak rentals. The rentals are only weekends."
"We usually use Pin Oak CG at Natchez Trace State Park when we are traveling through Tennessee. Many nice sites, and a few that aren't as nice. "
"I really liked that because everyone was outside instead of hiding inside their giant RV’s! The spots at the end of the cove around the lake were awesome!"
"Cub Lake Campground #1
I love this campground so much! It is very small and private. Only small campers and tent campers are allowed in this campground."
"Situated on a lake with a dock available. Good fishing, swimming.
Mall sites are large and level and not crowded at all. Our favorite getaway close to home."
"Not alot of noise since it's back away from any major roads. The lake is very pretty and there is a swimming area for kids. I had a great time here."
"Way off the beaten path near the Tennessee River. A drive to the nearby Lady’s Bluff Small Wild Area is worthwhile. "
"The primitive sites are right on the beautiful tennessee river. The park rangers are extremely helpful as well. Highly recommended"
"Full hook ups, lake access. Cabins also available."

"My wife grew up going to Chickasaw State Park as a child and when she wanted to go back with our family we couldn’t get inside because the state of Tennessee was totally redoing the campground."
"This was our first experience with Tennessee State Parks and found this park really nice! We stayed in site 11 which was AAA and level at the top."
$15 - $95 / night
"Ripple Valley Farms is new to the Dyrt and has a huge property full of pines and a lake to share, bring your tent, RV or stay in one of their cabin!. "
GuideThey have huge back in spots mostly level even though it’s gravel. It’s in a field so no frills. Dispersed campers look like they live there. It was a quick trip off 40 to get there and it was quiet and spacious. Good for an overnight rest.
TravelerThe scenery is beautiful. Plenty of fish activity with multiple campsites on the water with a steady breeze. No Potable Water sites. Bathrooms do get cleaned in the morning. Using Verizon and AT&T, service is great averaging between 3-4 bars. Spoke with some of the Rangers. Renovation plans are in place coming January 2026 to make this campground gated with PIN access for paying campers and will be adding RV parking. There is currently an issue with individuals driving to the campsites throughout the day and night utilizing the park’s amenities without paying. First night at least 5 vehicles drove in and took control of the bathrooms/showers for hours throughout the night. One came out and started, what sounded like, a chainsaw. My belief was to intimidate us given we were the only paying campers and we looked at their direction due to the noise they were making. Constant yelling and argumentative behavior among the individuals. It takes the Rangers 20-30 minutes to arrive if called so you have to ride out the uninvited guests and hope they leave you be. The Rangers themselves, are very polite and they were honest about the issue. However with how much ground they have to cover with limited staff and resources they can’t control the situation until the renovations begin. My advice, if you want to avoid potential conflict and harassment wait till the park renovates.
LegendSaraj from The Dyrt here. Hidden Oasis at White Oak Landing really lives up to its name. This peaceful RV park sits right on the Tennessee River, so it feels quiet and private in all the best ways. If you're looking for a relaxed, scenic place to unwind, this one’s worth the stop!
TravelerThis is the BEST state park in West TN. It’s quiet, depending on your camping neighbors, and just sitting on the banks watching the boats go by is peaceful.
RangerThis park has camping, hiking trails, horse back riding and geocaching just to name a few things to do here.
RangerI spent 8 nights here. Almost everyday some huge rig would pull up in front of what little view I had and block me out completely. I was lucky if I had a few daylight hours of a view of the sky and trees.Most people left early in the morning. Even for the thanksgiving week that was a lot of activity. And I would think that since I booked 8 nights up front they would put be some place quiet and secluded. I got just the opposite. Fuel stations and restaurants nearby. My experience with KOAs is turning into just a stream of places you should only sleep at and get F out.
LegendWe found this highly rated campground (CG) while looking for a different route back to our home base and wanted to check it out. We followed our RV GPS north on TN-22 to the CG, which is about a mile and a half past I-40. We checked in and was then escorted to pull through site 12 with FHUs. It is a narrow road and a 90 degree turn into the site. Because of the slight incline on the side of the site, you can't really go wide. We had to maneuver several times so we could get straight on the site and get our sewer lined up. We also had to make sure our steps could come out on the small deck. 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. We soon found out the site is not level and had to put leveling blocks under our door side wheels as they were off the ground after auto level. Disclaimer here as not all sites in this CG are the same and some are quite nice with room between them. We were here for two days and placed in the row where they place shorter rigs for overnighters. The sites are cut into a hill and are very close together. These sites have a small deck with most having a patio table and two chairs. Site 12 has a picnic table, which in our opinion was to too large for the space. There is also a several foot drop off that if you are not very careful could cause harm(not safe). The site was not long enough for our 40’ 5th wheel plus F450 and we were instructed to park across the road. There’s a fire pit in these very narrow sites. The truck parked in the site next to us was too close to safely enjoy a fire in the tiny sliver of lawn with the fire pit. During our briefing after being escorted to our site, we were told to use a reducer as their water pressure is high. They claim to have good internet and the speed test and usage confirms the internet here is good. We were able to get a clear shot north for Starlink. The CG does have mature trees in and around some of the sites. They have cable but we didn’t use it. We got 4 bars on Verizon. As we and others were setting up, the staff rides around in golf carts and stops by to check on you. While a nice touch, commenting“you look perplexed” and nothing more as I was finishing putting out 25’ of sewer hose was not helpful nor necessary. There are nice amenities here to include the big pond area. There are four washers($2.75) and four dryers($.25 for 10 minutes and$1.00 got our load dry). There is one additional dryer for dog bedding only. As we were here for a couple of days, we wish we had a better site versus site 12 that other reviewers had mentioned had issues. When we asked how we could get into one of the sites in the 29- 35 area, which had plenty of open sites during our stay, we were told those were for big rigs 40' and over. We reminded them we were a 40' rig. Had we been placed in the 30s area, our review may have been better.
GuideThe 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.
ScoutPet friendly great place to stay 50 and 30 amp full hookups free WiFi
