  Village Creek State Park Campground

  One of the best campgrounds!

  Only an hour from Memphis, this campground is VERY nice - three camping areas, two lakes with boat rentals, 6 cabins, and a gorgeous 27 hole golf course. It is always well kept, the staff is pleasant and they have a small store at the visitor center.

  Tom Sawyer's RV Park

  Can not beat the location

  This campsite is in West Memphis, Arkansas right across the river from Memphis Tennessee. The sites are right on the river bank, beautiful. Sunrise over the river was perfect. Watching the tug boats moving up and down the river all day and night was relaxing. Nice little bath house and laundry in each section. Not many trees in the section I stayed, but still wonderful. The other two sections have many more trees if the is what you are looking for. No pool but there is plenty of fishing and tree houses for the kids. A little gem on the river.

  Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park Memphis

  Really Nice, but mostly long term

  This is a really nice campground just outside of Memphis, TN. They have a swimming pool, playground, covered party pavilion, laundry and lots of kids activities. They also have cabins for rent. This appears to be more of a long term rental campground, but it is a great place to stay if you are traveling there for the weekend for local events, baseball tournaments at Snowden Grove or a Memphis vacation. The campsites are very close together and most are in the sun with no shade.

  Quiet stay

  Had a comfortable night in a cabin. Cabin was warm & had everything we needed. Will stay here again if we’re in the area.

  Village Creek State Park Campground

  Lots to choose from

  There are nearly 100 sites here at Village Creek State Park. They are Spacious, paved and well maintained. The campground is spread out on plenty of land. 2nd largest park in Arkansas in such a tiny town. Many deer walking freely at night. Water and electric hookups, bathrooms and a museum too. They have concerts occasionally here in the big field. Cabins are great too above the rim of the lake. Many hikes to take here and so peaceful. There are stables and horse trails as well as mountain biking. The park is located in Wynne, Arkansas. I have visited here many times camped in RV and stayed in the cabins. The rangers are always friendly and it is close to my relatives in Forrest City.

  Unique spot

  Great spot right on the Mississippi River, barges traveling up and down day and night. Beautiful sunrise and sunsets, close to Memphis Tennessee also.

  Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park Memphis

  Clean and well maintained with lots of activities

  This is a huge campground and the price for a spot was at least double what we would pay elsewhere (nearly $100). We weren’t able to get a campground at Tom Sawyer and the reviews were all over the place for the rest of the Memphis campgrounds that we decided to go ahead and splurge on this one.

  This was our first Jellystone and I was shocked at how many campers the campground accommodated - there are RVs everywhere. Most of the amenities and services are located at the front of the campground and includes a store and propane, playground, dog run, pool, showers and laundry, gold mining station, and sports courts (basketball, Gaga ball, and basketball). Further back in the campground, was another playground and dog run and a really cute little lake.

  We were staying off-season so there was no activities and they actually deflated the jumping pad, but my kids still had fun and I could see this campground either being a blast in the summer or being a nightmare because of too many people. While we were there, I saw almost no children and several of the camper sites looked like the guests were staying long-term. For a campground that is marketed towards families, the demographics were a bit strange.

  That said, it was super clean, well-organized, the landscaping and sites were maintained, everyone was friendly. We got two loads of wash done and my husband said the showers looked good. There were some restaurants and a Walgreen that looked like they delivered to the campground. WiFi worked and they had cable tv.

  We reserved a basic site, but for more money you could get a site with Adirondack patio furniture and there were plenty of cabins as well. We reserved same day online and they have a system for late check-ins.

  I’m definitely giving Jellystone another go - but next time during the summer. I’m not sure whether this campground is a good base for exploring Memphis - I think if you had a car it would probably be fine as it’s only 20 minutes or so.

  Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park

  Huge State Park

  Campground is very rustic, shaded and sites are kinda small. Cell service is spotty. Some sites are really close together and some are decent size. The day area around Poplar Tree Lake is nice with kayak, flat bottom fishing boats and paddle boats for rent. Cabins seem very nice from the outside. Lots of nice playgrounds and a disc golf course.

  Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park

  Perfect weekend campground in the Mid-South

  My family and I live about 25 min from the campground at Meeman-Shelby State Park. We have been several times and have camped with tents, pop-ups, and now with our Geo-Pro. We love this campground.

  Pros: -49 available sites -all sites with water, 30A, fire ring, grill and picnic table -a variety of hiking/biking trails -update playground -lake with rental kayaks, canoes, boats (in season) -fully functioning bathhouse that is dated but clean

  Cons: -no sewer at any sites -some sites on the back sides of the camp ground are subject to erosion and can be unlevel and not ideal for kids -large park so many of the activities outside the campground require driving -1 bathhouse which can be an issue on certain weekends -MOSQUITOS. If you go after the weather warms up, be forewarned that the mosquitos will eat you alive. We mostly camp at Meeman-Shelby in the fall/winter. We do not camp Spring/Summer.

  There is a disc golf course that is very popular. There is a nature center that is under renovation that has snakes, spiders and owls to see. There are cabins to rent but we have never stayed in one. They look nice from the outside.

  I’ve included several pictures of camp sites and the grounds. All in all, Meeman-Shelby is a great park and is perfect for families. Make sure to schedule a friday night dinner at the General Store. Steak and live music that sets the tone for a great camping weekend!

  Tom Sawyer's RV Park

  Nice Spot on the River

  Really like the park, but really wasn’t impressed by West Memphis. Luckily, the park seems to be well buffered from the town. Went into Memphis on days one and two. There are currently mask mandates there. Today I went to the Kroger in West Memphis. The area seemed safe enough during the day, and masks are not mandated.

  Memphis KOA

  Standard KOA Journey, far from Memphis

  Although this is called the Memphis KOA - it is a bit of a hike.  Especially when the bridge (I-40) is out.  

  This campground is very typical for a KOA Journey.  Right off the interstate, nice pull-throughs, minimal amenities.  

  We stayed here for a couple of weeks while working in Memphis - good/bad comments below:

  Good

  1. Staff.  Super nice, very helpful.

  2. Ease of access to I-55.  

  Bad

  1. Remote (not in a good way). Kind of far from West Memphis, within 10 minutes to Marion, but nothing is convenient. 

  2. Not in Memphis.  Per the name, this is really important to note.  Assume it is 30 minutes to where you are going in Memphis.  45 if the bridge is out.  

  3. It floods when it storms.  Like 5 inches standing water.  Should probably be fixed.

  Village Creek State Park Campground

  Nice campground close to Memphis!

  We stayed on a super cool double decker campsite in Loop A. This particular site wasn’t very level for a camper, but we made it work because we wanted this site! It would be super cool for several tent campers to use. We love the privacy of the suite style bathrooms! There is a creek that runs behind sites 1-22. We explored behind the single digit sites to check out the creek. Not sure how much water is in it during the summer, so it could be a mosquito trap!

  We took a wonderful guided hike on a portion of the trail of tears. I hear the golf course is amazing, but we didn’t have time to check that out. The park offers several planned activities throughout the day. They also offer tennis courts and 2 different lakes to fish! Boat rentals are available, but we didn't look into any of that. They have wood for sale at the office.The Class AAA campground (loop B) was really nice. Loop C is a Horse Camp. The only draw back was that we had absolutely ZERO cell service (AT&T). Zero. Zilch. Nada. 

  We really enjoyed our Fall Camping trip here and love the proximity to Memphis. It was only about an hour drive for us.

  Graceland RV Park & Campground

  Nice CG Near Everything Elvis

  We spent two nights here (May 26-28, 2022). This is a decent, easy access CG with level pull through and back-in gravel sites in Memphis. It is located next to Elvis Presley’s Memphis and across the street from Graceland- it’s a busy area. There are a number of activities available: walking trail, swimming pool, playground/horse shoes (both in disrepair) and dog walk. We did not make use of the laundry, bathrooms or showers. It is a great base camp to visit everything Elvis, Beale Street (34 points of interest) and the Memphis area. The WiFi was great as was cell phone reception. We would stay here again.

  KOA Campground Memphis Marion

  Nice, but on the Interstate

  Cute little campground that works be greatly improved by being further away from the interstate. First though, the two women at the front desk were very friendly and helpful! The bathrooms were clean and it looked like it would be a fun place to stay for awhile, especially if you have bigger kids. There's big trikes to ride, a playground, and a basketball net.

  We stayed in one of two cabins that helped to muffle the rumble of the trucks outside. I'm not going to sugar coat it, it's really loud as the campground borders the frontage road. I would not attempt it if I were in a tent. Of you have a camper and are a deep sleeper, go for it.

  Graceland RV Park & Campground

  Perfect for a Memphis stay

  We aren’t too enamored with Elvis but this was a nice RV park with a good value just outside of Memphis. If you are Elvis fans then you will love the proximity to Graceland. For us we enjoyed the pavilion, pool, basketball hoop, playground, showers, and other amenities. The highlight of our stay here, however, was the opportunity to take a free pink Cadillac limo ride to Marlowe’s for superb BBQ. Our children loved this opportunity. Next time we are in Memphis we will certainly be back here!

  Nice Campground Along Mississippi River

  Nice campground right along the Mississippi river.   They have open sites (no shade) right along the water and some Wooded sites with tons of shade.

  Large pull thru sites, with your own space, but still a little close together.

  Run down neighbor hood on the way to the park, but far from the road and a very safe place to stay.   The entry is a little "sketch" but really nice once you get in.    10-15 minutes to Memphis, TN.   

  Wiseacre Brewery in Memphis is well worth the stop and Beale Street is right there as well.

  Tom Sawyer's RV Park

  Location Location Location!

  Stopped here on our way from Nashville to Hot Springs and loved the setting! Thankfully we were able to avoid the horrible traffic backups through Memphis due to the I40 bridge closure over the Mississippi - but only because of truck troubles. We were delayed leaving Nashville so we got to Memphis at 1:30am so minimal traffic. We couldn’t see much when we arrived at 2am but woke up to a beautiful sunrise and tugs moving barges up and down The Bug Muddy. Our interactions with the staff were great, the fishing ponds kept me busy for a few hours to go along with the relaxing time on the riverbank watching the barge traffic. Our only disappointment? That we only reserved one night - But we’ll be back! Sites are level, all are FHU and most are right on the river. Highly recommended!

  Out of the Way Serene Forest

  Meeman-Shelby, north of Memphis, is a nice addition for your camping travels.  Very quiet with decent, if old, shower and toilet facilities. Lots of mosquitoes due to the forest surrounds so be prepared.  Some sites have dual levels so be prepared there, too.  Not much privacy between sites.

  Memphis KOA

  Small campground along the highway

  We stayed here for a few nights while visiting Memphis. It is a small campground right on the highway with a lot of traffic noise. The campsites were a decent size but the mosquitoes were unbearable. Very few people were spending any time outside due to the bugs.
