T.O. Fuller State Park Campground

Yes, driving in it feels a little sketchy, but once inside the campground it is completely fine. If you come in from the North entrance which does not go past the visitor center it just seems like an industrial area and much safer. The location off 55 is great. There are really no better campgrounds in the area. And it is 15 minutes to downtown Memphis to pick up your Charlie Vergos Rendezvous bbq!

Quiet campground within Memphis city limits, right off of the hwy 15 mins from downtown. Friendly knowledgeable staff, beautiful trails and nice full hookup campsites, clean modern bathrooms/showers. Also has a primitive camping area for boondocking.

Nice park for RVs.

I booked online ahead of time as I was traveling across country and needed a place to sleep. It is right next to downtown and a railroad yard. Driving on the roads to the site there were piles of trash and debris that had been dumped as well as abandoned broken down cars. The utility poles had blue flashing police lights with cameras. A very scary part of town. As I drive into the campground, I see the Ranger walking around in full Tactical Gear, carrying a Pistol! I find my site and get out of my car and there is no room for a tent, this is just an RV park. (Site 35) In addition, I was hit by rancid odor of raw sewage(from the Mississippi river?) The Ranger came up to me and ask to see my ID, then told me to have a nice stay, and I told him No Way am I staying here! And he said“I understand.” I got back in my car and just continued to drive. I was still charged for the nights stay.

Nice quiet n peaceful...my husband and I really enjoyed our stay

Camp is surrounded by industrial area. Play road entrance closed making for a high stress night entry from Memphis. Use W UseMitchell St entrance. If seeing Graceland is on ur list, better to call at Graceland.

Roadway coming in was a bit littered and unkept. Once we got to the sites it was much cleaner and well maintained. Booking was a breeze. We booked online the night before. Check in was very easy, especially because we got there after 10pm. Dogs loved their late night and early morning walks.

T.O. Fuller is a beautiful little campground with 45 sites most of which are paved. They have a about 10 pull through sites and all of the sites have water and electric but no waste. There is a dump station at the entrance of the campground. There is a 4.5 mile hiking trail and a 2 mile novice trail. The campground is adjacent to the Chuckalisa archeological burial mounds that offers tours. The bathhouse is currently undergoing renovation's as well as the laundry. The downside is they are near wet lands so mosquitoes are prevalent and the water treatment plant several miles away does produce some unpleasant odors but not often. I have spent quite a lot of time here and it is one of my favorite campgrounds, highly recommend.

The park is a little unkept but quite and convenient. The lady taking the reservation was very nice. There is an free ice machine in the laundry area

Very nice and clean camping location. Ranger was very nice and helpful. Full power and water hookup and dump station. Great spot to stop.

This campground was quiet we only stayed one night on a weekday. It is in the middle of a rough part of town so the drive in we were a little concerned about what the park would be like. There were lots of mosquitoes and a swampy smell. It was an easy pull through site though.

The campground is nice. We stayed in RV space 26 - very level. Bathrooms were nice for a state park and there was a small laundry area. Playground and shelters. Close to Graceland and downtown Memphis. The main issue is the smell. It’s almost gag inducing. If you just need a place to stop and sleep, go for it. Just don’t open your windows and leave early.

The drive in is a little eyebrow raising, you either take a long drive through a kind of run down neighborhood, or an industrial park. Once you’re in, the sites are pretty well spaced, flat, and hookups are in good repair. I don’t know if the storm damage is recent, but there are a LOT of trees down in the park. Also, not sure if it’s just our site, but there’s a lot of trash around, and if there’s Wi-Fi, it doesn’t reach here. UPDATE: Apparently there is a sewage treatment plant upwind and the odor is pretty acute depending on how the wind is blowing.

We enjoyed staying here 2 nights in our pop-up camper as we visited Memphis. Just a 20 minute drive into downtown, with large wooded sites, a fine bathhouse, and trails from the campground through the woods. Co-located with a Mississippian Native archaelogical site that's interesting to walk through. Deserted when we stayed there on a Saturday night in February.

The place was very clean everybody was very nice and respectful

Stayed overnight. Nice place our site was very level. No worries.

There's a smell due to the industrial zone right outside the park but, for a quick one night stay it ain't bad. We got a small spot, right next to the facilities which themselves, were okay. Planes go by regularly but didn't seem to be unbearably loud. The smell though...

We arrived late at night so didn’t get to see much in the evening—an odd feeling location as you drive through an industrial area but kind of cool trails in/around the camp.

We didn’t use much of the amenities so can’t comment too much on those.

Would stay here again.

Had a fantastic time staying here Sep 2nd-6th, 2020. 10 minutes to Graceland. 20 minutes to Beale Street, 30 minutes to The Lorraine Motel. Bathrooms were very clean. Camphost was very nice and knew the area well. I believe he said he has been there since 96' The park is very well maintained but being so close to a city, once you leave the park there is a lot of litter. I would suggest this to anyone wanted to explore. Will definitely stay anytime I go to Memphis.

I needed a place to stay and it was past the time to call and make a reservation, usually $26 i think, but i just pulled into an open spot and stayed for free. Good running water and quiet place. If you want to stay for free i recommend leaving before 8am to avoid getting ticketed.

Granted it is Christmas Eve and Christmas Day so it was very quiet. Still nice campground. OK space between sites. Did not go to the bathhouse but from the outside looked clean. Like that they had recycling.

Quiet place in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Memphis. Odorous, there is a water treatment plant close by. We parked the mobile apartment, grabbed an Uber, and went to Graceland.

PS. Uber’s will take you to the Casino at Southland, but they will not pick you up. You have to use a taxi service, which is auto $35.00 to take you across the bridge, back into Tennessee.

I spent a night here in mid/early July and boy was it hot and humid. Bring bug spray! This is a small campground, just one loop, in a state park that’s conveniently located near Memphis. The facilities were not the cleanest I’ve seen but also not the worst. The only reason I noticed the lack of cleanliness and upkeep was because I visited during COVID-19. Because of when I was visiting the campground was the only part of the park open.

I am yet to leave a less than good review for a state park. We decided to come for new years and take a mini vacation. Due to the fact the state park is near a water treatment facility, we only made it two nights. The smell of sewer was awful. On top of that the park was unkempt, filthy, and littered with trash. There were many people camping in cars. We never felt safe. The camp host kept money from me that we had paid for reservations, I learned later. I do not recommend. We will not return. Sorry to Tennessee state parks as I hate to give a bad review.

This is a beautiful park with lots of trees and Robert the camp host was nice and helpful. There is a museum on site. Clean rr's and free ice machine

Clean place near or in town. A little pricey $28day rate. Laundry & bath were good. Nice place for kids to play. Some small level of privacy. Close to industrial area, so there was sometimes a smell. Not super close, but close enough to downtown. No cell and almost no digital TV service.

I wish we had nicer camping in Memphis, but unfortunately we don’t. We came here for the hiking trail. The trail is nice during the cold months, but being this close to the river and the Memphis humidity, I can’t even begin to imagine how awful the bugs are during the warmer months. Only a few campers were here at the time we visited, and 2 of them looked like they had been here for months, if not longer. It’s not in the best area of town either. A lot of people do love to come here to enjoy the pool during the summer though! Chucalissa Museum is worth checking out if you are here.
