Best Campgrounds near Wildersville, TN

Numerous established campgrounds dot the landscape surrounding Wildersville, Tennessee, primarily concentrated within Natchez Trace State Park and other nearby state recreation areas. The region includes a mix of developed facilities with Pin Oak Campground offering full hookup sites for RVs alongside cabins for those seeking more comfort. Chickasaw State Park Campground, approximately 25 miles southwest of Wildersville, provides tent sites, RV pads, and cabins set within nearly 15,000 acres of state forest land. Several campgrounds feature lakefront sites with water access, particularly along Pin Oak Lake and Cub Lake within the Natchez Trace system.

Seasonal considerations affect campground access throughout the area, with most facilities maintaining year-round operations but experiencing higher occupancy during summer months. Reservations are recommended, especially for weekend stays between May and September when waterfront sites fill quickly. While many campgrounds offer full hookups with electric, water, and sewer connections, primitive camping options are also available at locations like Spring Creek Primitive Campground near Mousetail Landing State Park. Gravel pads are common at most developed sites, with varying degrees of shade depending on location. Cell service can be spotty throughout the region, particularly within state park boundaries. According to one visitor, "Be sure to set your GPS before leaving I-40 because at least with ATT you will lose signal."

Campers consistently rate waterfront sites highest among accommodation options, with Natchez Trace State Park's facilities receiving particularly strong reviews for spaciousness and privacy between sites. Pin Oak Campground earns praise for its "generous pad" sizes that easily accommodate larger RVs up to 38 feet. Most developed campgrounds maintain clean bathhouses with showers, though facilities vary in age and condition. Several visitors mentioned enjoying wildlife viewing opportunities and stargazing as highlights of their stays. One camper noted that at Chickasaw State Park, you can walk "out into the middle of the lake and see the expanse of the Milky Way." Fishing access, hiking trails, and boat launches enhance the camping experience at many locations, with some parks offering equipment rentals for water recreation.

    Hidden Oasis at White Oak Landing RV Campground

    Bookable on The Dyrt!

    Saraj 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!

    Paris Landing State Park Campground

    Great location

    Another great Tn State Park! The campground layout is odd. Some sites are pointed the wrong direction on a one way road, so you just have to drive it backwards. Most sites are small, but there are a few longer ones. Seems like many are unlevel. Our picnic table was at a very noticeable slant. The bathhouse was really nice, felt new and was very clean. The staff and park rangers were very nice. Only 1 bar of service with AT&T.

    Buffalo I-40-Exit 143 KOA

    easy in and out, and noisy

    I 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.

    Parkers Crossroads RV Park and Campground

    Not What We Were Expecting

    We 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.

    Chickasaw State Park Campground

    Nice Place to Relax

    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.
