The best thing about this park, is its location. If you are visiting the Bartlett, Germantown area, it is the only camp available. Other than the location, there is no reason to stay here. It is a flat open field with mud if it rains, RVs packed close together, and NO trees or flowers. The view is your neighbor eating at his table. The campground host is at best surly. We have stayed here twice, because of location. On both occasions, there were sites available that were not either mud or between two other RVs. We were told that those were reserved. Nobody ever came in to any of them. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The best thing I can say about this campground is that it is convenient. It is close to everything I needed and is a safe location. There are many stores, restaurants close by. Otherwise, it is a big empty field, site are extremely close, there had been a lot of rain and it was a mud hole. WiFi is available, but it costs extra. No cable, but you can pick up a couple of local stations. If you are looking for amenities, this is not your place, but if you just need a place to park, it is a good one. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I found this campground depressing. The sites were very close together and gravel, but at least our site was level. There were a number of run down looking RV's in the campground. The campground hosts were not at all helpful. The park DOES have wireless internet, but my husband had to call management to find out about it. I think if I go to Memphis again, I will seek out another campground. Power, water ,and sewer worked fine. Dogs were welcome. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Basic rural park with gravel sites and unpaved roads. Sites very close together. Camp host not very helpful. Asked for a different site for our 43' motorhome, but he said they were all reserved. The site we asked for is still vacant. Good side of Memphis. Felt safe here. OK location for seeing area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is nothing special but is in a great location to visit Memphis. It is basically a large gravel and grass parking lot. However it is in a great safe area full of stores and restaurants and just about anything else you could need. There is a large farmer's market right next door. It is also very quiet for sleeping which we love. No amenities but we didn't care. We were only there to see Graceland, the Peabody Hotel, Beale Street, and eat some BBQ. All of those are fairly close. We would stay again if in the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a good place to stay to see Memphis sights. It is close to shopping and 4 miles south of I-40. Flea Market and Corn Maze activities were taking place while we were there. Sites are close to each other and could use some grading and additional crushed rock. Good roads to ride our bikes and walk the dog. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Stayed here as an overnight twice this month, and found it to be a great deal for this purpose. Although it's a little bit out of the city, it would be a good place to set up to see Memphis. Our GPS took us to the front of the AG Center, rather than to the back where the RV park is, not impossible, but you have to maneuver speed bumps and parking lots. Using the Moore Road entrance off 177 or Walnut Grove Road takes you directly to the park. Staff was friendly and helpful, we had reservations so no problem getting full hookups. Farmers market is right next to the park, and catfish farm/catch pond just down the road. No frills place but convenient and safe. Would stay again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The Agricenter is a large agricultural / industrial outfit that has several multipurpose exhibition-type buildings, plus open fairgrounds like areas. There is an attached campground on the grounds - nothing fancy, but roomy and equipped with water, elec., sewer, etc. My guess is when the place started they had lots of people show up with trailers, RVs, motorhomes, and those people parked off to the side - like at county fairs. Over the years, some water connections and electric hookups were put in, until finally someone said, heck, if we're going to have people camping here, let's make it a real campground and charge for staying. Nothing fancy, but clean, roomy, and good base camp for Memphis We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This campground is located in a very affluent, clean, and safe area. However, Memphis is in a (42 days without rain) drought. Everything was dry and dusty. But, this campground is all gravel, and would be dusty under the best of conditions. Added to that, across the street is a huge corn maze drawing many, many cars all day and night until 11 PM which created a permanent dust cloud in a terrible way. October is clearly a time to skip staying here. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here for only one night. It is basically a parking lot, with no trees and nothing to separate you from your neighbors. The website says you have to make reservations one week in advance, but we called the camp host, and they had spaces available for that night. The bathrooms are clean and well maintained. It's a good safe place to stay if you're in Memphis. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Here only for an overnight stay after a day of driving in the rain. Park is about 4.5 miles off I-40. Sites are gravel but roads are heavily pot-holed, especially after rain. Plenty to do in the way of restaurants and shopping in the area if you're staying for a few days, but we didn't venture out since it was raining. Too much money for what you get in our opinion. Basically just an open field with a lot of RV sites. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We are 60+ year old fulltimers, so our campground needs are much different than those of families. This campground suits our needs VERY well. We reserved a 50 amp FHU site, most of which are well separated from the area used by semi-permanent workers, fairly roomy and level, reasonably quiet. Good water pressure and electricity. No obstacles for roof mounted satellite dish. More than a dozen channels on antenna, including PBS. Wi-Fi available at site. Good Verizon service. Great walking on trails along the adjacent river. Good neighborhood (Germantown) with excellent restaurants and stores of all kinds very nearby. Close to cheap golf ($11 for seniors at Galloway). Daily on-site Farmer's Market in summer. NOAA weather radar on site, with tornado shelter. Roads are potholed gravel, sites are gravel. Not so good as a vacation spot, perhaps - but an excellent location for fulltimers visiting Memphis. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I don't have as bad an opinion of other posters and have been there recently. The park is not pretty, but serviceable. It is for people who have other activities in Memphis. I felt safe. There was good area to walk dogs. There is great shopping and restaurants in the area. The ag center has a lot of land and there are parks in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The rate was $400 a month including utilities. All days over the three months were $25 each. This is a large grassy, usually water logged and muddy park. The roads have huge potholes, and there is no security. This is not a typical park but is filled with construction workers. The showers and laundry are minimal and not recommended. I was here only for the convenience of the area in visiting my family. Otherwise I would never stay there. The adjoining Shelby Farms Park with its many trails and dog park is a big plus, but the RV park is just that, a place to park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is essentially a big grassy parking lot and not particularly well kept. Sites are somewhat close together and the park appears to be used primarily by transients who are working in the Memphis area. Early every morning, all the pickup trucks cranked up as people headed off to work. We stayed there two nights mainly because there are no recreational parks in the area that we could find. While there is free site-wide wi-fi, for some reason, we couldn't get local TV reception. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stay here when we have to. There is so much road construction around this park it is a hassle to get to. It is a field with 30 amp power, no pads and when it rains it is a mess. There are nice hiking/biking trails around the Wolf River and a small pond. There is a corn maze across from the RV Park each October which is fun. If you plan to stay more than a night or two look at Tom Sawyer Park in West Memphis. It is much nicer. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We used this CG during a soccer tournament to try to cut costs. This CG does not have bath houses, concrete pads, paved roads, cable, internet... We did not have a site with full hook up, but it does have a dump station. The flies were bad and pets were not cleaned up properly. The CG is huge and is close to many activities in Memphis and is very cheap. I recommend this CG if you are going to Memphis to park; leave your RV; and really just need a place to sleep. If you are looking to camp and hang out, this CG is not for you. The second time my son had a soccer tournament in Memphis, we elected to pay for a motel room. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park needs major improvements, beginning with the camp host. They only crack the door to their camper and barely stick their head around to even talk to you, let alone greet you. We had reservations for 2 weeks and was quoted the rate of $125/week; however, upon arrival we were informed the rates had been increased to $150/week beginning July 1st even though the price had not been changed on their board on July 2nd. Suggested to them they needed to update their board and we would pay what we were quoted and also what was on their board. Like other reviewers, unless you have called ahead for a reservation, you do not get one of the few sewer sites they have, even though they are vacant. All sites do not have a water hook-up, so IF you go there, be sure to take along a 50 ft. water hose as you might have to lay your hose beneath the camper next to you in order to reach the faucet. Same thing for the electric hook-up. One post may serve up to 3 campers and then it is only 30 amp. Many of the sites are grassy sites and if it rains, make sure you have rain boots. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Firstly, this place has a VERY strange site policy - if you haven't already reserved a full hookup site site prior to arrival, then you cannot have a full hookup site - even though they are ALL empty !!! So, we stayed in a water/electric site and wondered why the CG would want to lose all that money. The CG host was the most miserable man we have found in our 10 months of full timing around the US and Canada. Although his wife seemed nice. The sites are long grass sites which will easily take a 45ft MH and tow vehicle. But I could see them getting boggy if really wet. The CG is an easy 20 minute drive to Graceland. There is FREE wifi available from at least 2 antennas provided by the agricenter. We would come again, but would reserve ahead for the full hookups. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park has a lot more to offer than the typical camp ground. You are right on the grounds that offer all types of summer/fall activities. While the park itself is just a gravel lot with full hook ups,and pull through sites. You are within walking distance to a good restaurant and many of the large pavilions. The highways in and around are excellent, and we saw security in the park often. If staying here, you are only minutes from the big town activities, and within 5 miles there are hundreds shops and other fine eating establishments. This is a place where RV rallies are held and was told they could handle over 800 rigs. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Good for a base camp or if visiting a trade show there. Open fields with power poles with four to six drops each and water drops every other pole. Limited number with sewer connections. We used it as a base camp while visiting friends in Memphis. The operators encourage the use of double 30 amp to 50 amp adapter cables for large rigs and they are looking at upgrading at least a portion of the grounds to full 50 amp service. We enjoyed shopping at the Farmers markets next to the campgrounds. Nice folks. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Campground is located across the street from Graceland. Rate includes parking at Graceland ($15 for RVs) the day we left, so consider it a bargain. Good TV reception and well stocked store. Elvis music played on speakers - fun! Nice pavilion for cooking, but it was too cold to use the pool. Don't go to Marlowe's for BBQ, very touristy, not very good. I'd return to park, it was fun!

Area is BAD. Housing projects overlook the campground. They advertised a nonexistent shuttle to Beale Street. Too scared to see what was inside bath house. Did however have excellent strong Internet as we only had to share with 10 other customers. Most looked to be permanent residents.

I was in this park about 6 weeks ago. The people running it were friendly and well informed. The park grounds and restrooms were very clean. The park is old and out dated and the restroom are very old and physically in bad shape! They need to be updated. But they take Passport America so I only had to pay 16 dollars. There are a lot of long-term people there but still a place I would stay at again. They do have one pull-through site. The Wi-Fi cost a few dollars but I have paid more at other places.

Nightly rate reflects Campground America. Had to use a pig-tail to reduce our electric to 30 amp because our neighbor had the 50 amp. No problem. Campground is old, ugly, and rundown. Scads of poison ivy line the back fence. CA rate and the campground's closeness to Graceland, make it OK for an overnight. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Park is old and run down and check-in staff was not the most welcoming. Park is 1-1/2 blocks from Graceland (we were shocked at the area of town it was in - quite run down). We asked for phone # to Graceland and lady at desk looked at us like we were nuts. So we asked for a phone book and if there were any brochures (got those). But since the park is so close to Graceland we thought they would have lots of visitors inquiring about it and would be able to give information about it. Would not stay here again.

We arrived at 6:15 PM' after the 6 pm closing time. The sign on the office door stated "Find an empty campsite and pay in the morning". After getting leveled and starting to hook up the manager showed up and said we had to move as he had just rented this site to someone else. The park was basically empty except for the permanent residents so there were plenty of other sites available so we begrudgingly moved. Next we asked about WI-FI and were told it was $10 a day; outrageous. The park itself is old but clean; sites are small and not very level. Our 50 amp power worked fine but the neighbors next to us had to plug into the 30 amp on our pole as theirs would not work and neither would their neighbors on the other side. The location is good for touring Graceland, but this is not a neighborhood you would want to be walking in at night. I don't think we would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I think there is some confusion on the reviews here, Elvis Presley Blvd RV Park is NOT located behind the Heartbreak Hotel. That is the Graceland RV Park. The Elvis Presley Blvd RV Park is just a little further from Graceland, but is not well maintained or well managed like the other park. It is ok, a little run down with disinterested management. They do take passport America for one night, so it is cheaper. Some sites are nicer than others. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

If you are an Elvis fan and want to see Graceland and all the Elvis sights in Memphis, this is the place to stay. It is definitely in easy walking distance to "Graceland" and all the tours associated with it. Not an "end run" place, but a great stop over to tour "Elvis". This is the only place to stay. The sign for the place is really hard to see. We missed it and when I mentioned it to the manager, she stated that she gets this all the time and is trying to get corporate to fix this. However, when you see the sign for the "Heartbreak Hotel", her sign is below it and it is time to turn into her drive. Loved it, had a great time. We camped here in a Motorhome.

If you want to see Graceland there is no other place to stay! In the middle of the city but you feel you're in the country. Quiet, clean, well run and the best staff - who specialize in "what to do and how to do it" at Graceland. A wonderful place to stay. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Stay Clear! We arrived in with our 5th wheel. The manager was nice. The campground was very, very run down. There was only 1 other traveler there, everybody else lived there. We had major problems trying to back in a 5th wheel and getting level on a very small site. This place was extremely scary for 3 grown adults. A toothless bum went walking through the campground. We drove to get dinner and found a very nice campground behind the Graceland Heartbreak Hotel. We quickly went back to the campground, grabbed the 5th wheel and stayed at the Graceland Heartbreak RV Park and really enjoyed our stay there. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

It's close to Graceland. That's about all you can say for it. It's dirty, cramped, lumpy, etc. We were given two sites as were the folks next to us. The rig on one site and the tow on the other, not enough room on one site for both. It was late and we did not know our way around. Stay somewhere else if you can. P.S. I think I just heard someone empty the clip on a handgun. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Just a scruffy car park, it is close to Graceland but that is its only redeeming feature. This is not a good part of town to be out in and make sure you lock everything. We just didn't feel safe here, glad we only stayed one night. Passport America rate did help but would rather pay more and have a better experience. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The Managers were very friendly. The bathhouse is old but was clean, it is a older park but i enjoyed my stay. They are the cheapest place to stay in Memphis. The newer parks charge upwards to 45.00 a night. This park was only 28.00 a night winter special. They have a very fast WIFI but it is a paid service. No cable but you can get about 10 channels on antenna. Close to everything and Managers are very informative. They can tell you about any and everything in and around Memphis. Just let them know what you are wanting to do. They only have 1 pull thru and I got it for 4 days. They can take big rigs the way the Managers run the park makes it a lot friendlier for big rigs. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Two of the earlier reviews are actually for the other RV park that is behind the Heartbreak Hotel,next to Graceland. This one is 3/4 mile away, and the ONLY reason to stay here is that it's cheaper and has Passport America for one night. This park is a miserable dump, and a sorry excuse for RVing. The managers don't leave the office unless forced. The bathrooms were dirty, without toilet paper, and no light over the 2 showers. Tiny laundry room was worse, with dirt and water everywhere and an overflowing trash can. Sites are in a paved lot, not level, and mostly tight. Wifi seems to be available for a charge. Manager did not mention it, did not offer the bathroom key, nor any other info. No security efforts, of course. The walk to Graceland is okay if you are careful; don't do this at night. Avoid this place if you can. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This RV Site was located in the most perfect location if you want to visit Graceland - literally a 5 minute walk to the ticket office. The earlier post about having to drive is nonsense and he must have stayed in a different site and reviewed this one as Graceland doesn't come any closer than this. The park is at the rear of Heartbreak Hotel - which we had a few drinks in the bar watching Elvis DVDs. The park WIFI did not work, but the hosts very kindly let me plug in my laptop in their office. The staff were very helpful, but the old guy spent more time moaning about his employers as to their procedures and was very vocal about his desires to leave, than the time he spent on serving clients. None the less, the facilities were very good, there is a great shop with Elvis souvenirs and the condition of the park is good. Would not suggest making a vacation there, but would strongly recommend staying there to see Graceland. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The park was adequate for an overnight stay to visit Graceland. It was a good place to park and use full hookups. I would not stay here more than one night. The staff was very friendly. I disagree with the earlier post that it's 100 yards from Graceland. It was far enough my wife, kids, and I decided to drive. If it was 100 yards, I would walk every time...I would guess a half mile or a little more to Graceland. I had no trouble with the WI-FI. Very good connection. There was a $5 extra charge to use it.

If you want to see Graceland, it don't get much easier than this. The park is about 100 yards away from Graceland, it's next to the parking lot of the Heartbreak hotel. Since the park is owned by the same folks that own the Heartbreak Hotel, you can use the hotel shuttle to get to Beale St. The park was clean and everything worked. The shade tree was small, but effective. Wished it had a fire pit, but no fires due to being inside Memphis City limits. If you stay here, we recommend calling Marlows Restaurant for dinner. The Restaurant has free shuttle service to this RV Park (A Pink Cadillac limo) and the BBQ ribs were absolutely wonderful. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Beggars knocked on our RV asking for change at this park. (More on that later.) This was a very cramped park, and not the place for pets. There was plenty of space to walk our dogs, but we usually tie them out during the day while we are at camp. Even with them tied on a 6' leash, they could reach our neighbor's slideout. We didn't want them touching the neighbors, so we couldn't leave them out. It was very tight quarters and the site we were in was far from level. The park backed up to an apartment complex, and there was a lot of noise from the residents there. It was a bad area, but that is what you get if you want to be near Graceland. It was an easy walk to all the tourist attractions. Our first night, we got in and the manager actually drove around with my husband and let him choose a site, which was very nice. Still, the choices were not great. I think the KOA Circus Circus in Vegas had more space between sites than this place. Also the utilities were located awkwardly, which took up a lot of the space. We got up the next morning and walked to the attractions, which was nice. We came back to the camper. We were not able to cook out, because there was no where to stand or sit outside. Then after dinner, our two children were asleep when we heard a knock on the door. We assumed it was the park management or a campsite neighbor. Actually it was two female panhandlers asking for money. On our 6-week trip, we had never experienced anything like that. My husband told them no and we put one of our dogs outside to guard our site. The next morning we complained, and then moved on. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is an older park, but the owners were super friendly and very accommodating. Another reviewer stated it was not in the best area of town, but neither is the competition (Memphis/Graceland RV Park & Campground). This one is maybe a block further down Elvis Presley Boulevard and for the price difference we paid ($31 vs $46) it's a buy. Good hookups and pull through sites are available. Very convenient to Graceland, shopping, restaurants, etc. We'd return. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Not situated in the best part of town, this park is close to Graceland. Most of the park is paved with full services. The park host was very helpful but did advise not to venture too far from the park after dark. The sites were a reasonable size. The washrooms were very dated but clean. Passport America is accepted here which made it bearable. I would not recommend the park for a family intending on staying for any length of time. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice little park across from Graceland and behind the Heartbreak Hotel. Plenty of room for our 42' coach and other larger coaches on level gravel sites. Not a fancy park but conveniently located south of Memphis. The staff was VERY helpful in informing us about all of the tours in the area. The bus picked us up right and dropped us off right at our site. They provide discounts at a local restaurant. The restaurant sends a limo to pick you up right at your sight -- in a "pink" Cadillac. They have a small pool with tables and chairs to relax at. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a gated type park with a security guard when you pass through the gates. It is conveniently located to Graceland and you can walk to the shops and mansion boarding area. It is located behind The Heartbreak Hotel and a free shuttle from Sun Studios comes out on the hour and takes you to Memphis and then to Sun Studio, Beale Street and back to the hotel. They also have a reasonably priced bus that takes you to and from Beale street for the night activities. For a fun dinner call the pink limo to pick you up and take you to Marlowe's for excellent BBQ. We have a 50 amp, pull through, full hookup site. It is a quiet park and we would stay here again and would recommend it to others. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We had a gravel, pull through, spot that was about 70 feet long. It took one ½ inch board to level my trailer side to side. There was a picnic table and grass on both sides of the trailer. TengoInternet was free but very slow and unreliable. Access roads were easy to maneuver on. Office staff was friendly and knowledgeable about local attractions. This park is very convenient to Graceland; walk out the back gate and you are less than 100 yards to the ticket counters at Graceland. We had an hour long thunder and lightning storm with a torrential down pour. The campground drained well 45 minutes after the storm stopped. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice park, convenient to Graceland. Early checkout time of 11am is mitigated by free parking at Graceland with Rv park sticker. The man in charge of filing propane had no idea what he was doing, we ended up forgetting about fill up. The lady who welcomed us in the evening was kind and gave us lots of info.

This RV park was a nice surprise for me. We stayed 2 nights, and for $61.50 total I felt it was a very good value. We had an end unit so I could give our dog a little more leeway on his rope. It also had a very large shaded pet area that was clean. We didn't use any facilities, but the pool was well used and clean looking. With the shuttle to Graceland a short walk away, it was very convenient. A local restaurant offered a free pink limousine ride to their eatery, and a lot of people used that. Shuttle buses to downtown Memphis are also available. Overall a great little park for either overnighting or weekly stays. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The pool was small, but nice. I wouldn't say the staff was full of hospitality, but they weren't rude either.

Located behind Heartbreak Hotel and across the street from Graceland, you could not be closer to Graceland unless you were the ghost of Elvis. If you are in Memphis for the Elvis experience, this is THE place to be. In addition to the convenience of Graceland, there is a free hourly Sun Studio shuttle that departs from the hotel and takes you to Sun Studios (duh) and to the Smithsonian Rock & Soul Museum; the latter being a couple of blocks from the famous Beale Street. The campground offers all pull-through sites, EWS (electricity, water, sewer), a small pool (seasonal), propane ($), free slow Wi-Fi, and recycling of tin and glass only. As is typical of privately operated RV parks, sites are narrow and require the truck hauling a 5th wheel to park diagonally in front of your RV. That being said the sites are level, have grass and a picnic table, but no BBQ or fire pit. Elvis music can be heard emanating from most RV’s: so you are amongst friends.

We stayed at this campground in January 2011 and again in November 2011. There have been no improvements made to this campground. This is a good place to stay if you visit Graceland. There were several permanents along the edges that were pretty much unkept. The sites are fairly level but they require maintenance so that they are not mud when it rains. The price is too high for what you get. The next time we are in Memphis we will try a different campground. The two good thing is that there is security 24 hours a day plus shuttles come to the park.

We stayed for one night, intending to visit Graceland the next day. Ideally located right beside all attractions. Easy in, easy out pull through site. Busy, but did not feel too crowded. Very clean. Very friendly staff. It is a city park and not all that attractive, but serves its purpose as base for visiting Graceland extremely well. Only downside is proximity to airport. Memphis is a hub for FedEx and for a period in the middle of the night, there is frequent plane noise overhead as all these planes rendezvous in Memphis. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I made our reservation in April, not knowing that we were passing through on the weekend of “Elvis Week” but they found us a site for one night. The website’s directions are just fine. Always use a campgrounds directions and consult a map. We were a little concerned when we turned onto Lonely Street and saw the police cherry-picker parked in the hotel lot, and the guard-shack to welcome our late arrival, but in the morning light, there was nothing wrong with the place, and there was a 5K run and police-training exercise in the hotel lot (part of the Elvis Week activities) to explain the crane. No frills, level, narrow, easy pull-through site with hookups. Showers were acceptable. The Graceland parking lot and ticket-center is through a gate at the corner of the RV park. I arranged for a late check-out because we had 9:00 tickets for the mansion tour. You only need 3-4 hours max to see everything in the Graceland complex. The options when I reserved were a free parking pass for RV park guests (move to parking lot, which was nearly full by 9:00am) or pay $5.00 in advance for late check-out by 1:00pm. We were not charged, but asked to leave my cell-phone number in case the next guest in our site arrived before we departed. We camped here in a Motorhome.

True, the park entrance is not lavishly marked. The entrance is immediately north of the Heartbreak Hotel. This is a very nice park. There is security at the entrance and through the park at night. The sites are mostly pull-through, though some are a little short. Each site is separated by a grass strip though some might consider the sites to be close. Yes, the pool and common area are quite popular. There is a tree/grass area at the back and around the pool which is as large as the RV park itself! A small part of this area is off-limits to pets as it is for the children's playground. There is a maintained small golf practice area (no long fairway shots!). However, this tree/grass area was wonderful just to walk the dogs around and enjoy the illusion of a peaceful countryside. Yes, it is directly next to the Graceland Museum area and across the street from Graceland. From the Heartbreak Hotel, there is a free shuttle to/from the Sun Records Studio and downtown (Beale Street and National Civil Rights Museum) during the day. At night, there is a $10/one way shuttle to Beale Street. Great place to stay and explore Memphis and Graceland! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a really nice, small park. It is conveniently located right next door to Graceland, and is very well maintained. The office staff was friendly, and the grounds were great. The sites are Parking Lot style and level. Although the sites are somewhat close together, you certainly have enough room between sites that you don't feel like you're on top of your neighbor. There is a small pool that seemed to be very popular with the guests, a children's play area, and I think I saw a small golfing area. We travel with our pets, and when we first arrived I got a little worried because I didn't see a grassy place to walk the dogs. However, I soon discovered a WONDERFUL green, park-like dog walk toward the rear of the facility! It was large, convenient, beautiful, and immaculately maintained. What a bonus! The laundry facility was very clean, and well appointed. We did not use the shower room, so I cannot comment on it. We really liked this little park, and would definitely stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is behind the Heartbreak Hotel, so it's very quiet even in the middle of the craziness of Graceland. Our spot was very shaded and had a nice grassy lawn with a picnic table. The swimming pool was very small, but nice and clean. The park has a large park area behind the sites to walk the dog. It's full of trees and really nice. From the park you can walk to Graceland and all it has to offer. You can also take a free bus to Sun Studios and there's a bus to downtown Memphis for a fee as well. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Good experience at this park! Rates may be a little high, but you are literally across the street from Graceland, so assuming that's why you're there to begin with, you can't really beat it. Plus, you get free parking in the Graceland parking lot if you need it. Employees were friendly and had all our information waiting at the night registration spot when we arrived. There was someone in the security booth every time we drove by, and they were always friendly and observant. Came out to stop us the first couple of times we came in until they saw our parking pass, which is good if you're concerned about safety! We did not hear any noise from the airport, street, or otherwise. Some very, very nice RV's and trailers were parked there. Main reason for rating was the bathrooms weren't the cleanest, but they really weren't "bad" either. We would stay here again! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The sites were large and gravel, but very level. The price was a little high, but this park had better reviews on this site than another near by. The fence has a gate so you can walk to Graceland ticket office/shopping and is right behind the Heartbreak Hotel. If they had cable TV, then I would feel better about the price. Otherwise I think you're paying for convenience, which is why we stayed a second time on our way back through Memphis headed home. We received our Good Sam discount.

Very nice site with a friendly staff. Clean restrooms with plenty of heat and hot water. Smaller sites but enough space for the biggest rigs. And once you are at Graceland, who is going to spend much time "camping". It is a short walk to Graceland, the shops and the Heartbreak Hotel that plays Elvis documentaries most of the time. We have a Lexington 210 and were able to drive it down to Beale Street for the day. That is a 12 mile trip. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is fine for a couple of days and is located right behind the Heartbreak Hotel. Graceland is a short walk, if you want to go there. The sites are cramped, but level, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. There is also a security guard on the premises and we felt safe here. There is a shuttle available at the hotel to take you to/from Beale Street for $10 per person round trip. WiFi was pretty reliable. Our stay here would have been fine, except we were placed next to someone who did not close off their sewer tank and it smelled as a result. Their motorhome was also leaking causing a pool of water in our site and they would run the engine in the morning for about 30 minutes causing fumes in our motorhome. (Their motorhome was pretty old and not maintained well.) We were not able to sit outside our rig, even though the weather was very nice. If we stay at this park again, we will be more careful to check the site location and neighboring rigs before accepting the site. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great, safe, close to everything park. Gravel sites, a lot of dirt to deal with as it was very dry while we were here. Great open grassy area for pets to walk in. Security tight including a car that drives around all night and gated with security guard. Area didn't appear to be that bad, however. Sites narrow, but I have seen worse. Didn't do Marlowe's, but did go to Uncle Lou's and had a great time. Close enough to Beale street to drive. The shuttle books up quickly as it is for Heartbreak Hotel and RV park guests only. Elvis Presley Blvd is not a smooth road: go through 3 lights after 5B exit off 55, then get as far over to right as you can (looks like a berm area that ends immediately after turn into park) to turn onto "Lonely St.", which is the drive back to the park.

This park was a nice surprise. We were headed to Graceland anyway, finding a park outside Memphis was proving to be problematic and we decided to try it out. It is clean and the staff was friendly. We got to set up the camper and walk over to Graceland for the day, avoiding parking fees. The spot had easy hook-ups and we had a shade tree.

We loved our stay at this park. The people in the office were both friendly and helpful. The laundry facilities clean and neat. And, although we didn't use them, we noticed that the shower/restroom areas were cleaned daily. No cable TV, but our antenna worked just fine. This campground is literally at Graceland's front door. The hotel right in front offers a shuttle service to/from Beal Street for $10/person and is well worth it. Also, there is a restaurant right up the road about a mile, Marlow's, that will come and pick you up at your site in a pink limo and take you to their restaurant for supper. What a treat! There are just a few minor things that could improve this RV Park. The sign out front could be larger, as we passed it and had to find a place to turn around. Also, we travel with a couple of dogs, and it would have been nice to have a fenced-in area for them to exercise. People have said in previous reviews that this is in a bad part of town, but we didn't notice any problems. We are hoping to visit Memphis again either in the fall or spring, when the weather is cooler and will definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a good place to stay if you visit Graceland. We've done that now, and won't be back so I don't have to worry about staying here again. It wasn't a very appealing park to the eye. Several permanents along the edges that were pretty shabby and the drive-to is downright scary. Boarded up apartment buildings, litter, rotten road conditions everywhere in this part of Memphis. That said, it's the best bet in town for visiting the king. And if you stay here, get brave and drive the two miles to Uncle Lou's Fried Chicken over on Millbranch for take-out. Unbelievable food. Featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, and the BEST thing I ever ate! Same shabby neighborhood: but Uncle Lou makes it worth the drive. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is "said" to be in a bad part of town. I felt very safe and comfortable here for the 7 days that we stayed. The security is visible 24 hours a day. They make their rounds approximately every 30 minutes from what I could tell. The staff is very friendly and more than willing to give you hints on getting around the city. It is so close to where you board the shuttle to "Graceland", you can walk in a few minutes. A lot of people came to just stay one night, tour "Graceland" and then move on. We stayed long enough to enjoy the city and all of the historic attractions. If we are every passing through Memphis, we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

It is hard to believe this is part of the Elvis Presley Properties: it is old and run down with long term residents. PT sites are for overnight only. Since we were staying 4 nights to enjoy Memphis, we had to drop our trailer and take a back-in along the fence line. Very close to the neighbor. Over priced for what you get. Laundry room was okay. Office personnel were friendly. Can walk to Graceland and the Heartbreak Hotel. Would stay here again overnight as there is not much in the area, but not a destination spot.

This is a great park to stay in to visit Graceland which is accessible through the gate to the ticket area where you pick up the shuttle. Lots of shops and eateries available. While we were here we were woken up at 3:30 AM to tornado sirens. We and many others went to the restroom (we were parked next door) and waited for the all clear. A lot of rain had fallen but the park did not take on a lot of water. It seemed to drain very well. We had to extend our visit as the next day there were more tornado warnings (which did hit a few miles away) but our route to Nashville was closed. The staff was wonderful. They made our first tornado experience bearable! We ended up staying here until Tuesday morning and again the staff was great!

There is 24/7 security to check vehicles coming in. We notice they are spreading visitors out nicely as the park is only half full, not stacking us on top of each other. The facilities are older but clean and well maintained. They decorated well for the holidays, but did not overdo it. They have made a nice effort.

We spent the entire day touring Graceland and the other exhibits (planes, movies, army, and cars). I was glad we were close after Graceland (3 hours) we went back and let the dogs out for a walk: great area for them at the back of the campground. The pool was closed but looked nice. Laundry and bathhouse were very nice. When they are this good we use them otherwise we shower in the RV. We would definitely stay here again. It rained like crazy all one night and the whole day, and the site was still pretty dry.

The kids left their bikes out every day and night without problems. Our site was very close to the office, so our wifi was excellent! Office staff was friendly and helpful. They even let me print out a coupon for the Graceland tour. The swimming pool didn’t seem to have a light, so we had to leave when it got dark.

Gorgeous RV park with spacious sites and lots of grass. Right behind the heartbreak hotel. There is a free evening shuttle into memphis from the hotel that the RV park guests can use and there is also a shuttle that goes to the Sun Studios that picks up every hour from the hotel during the day - although it is a bit of a walk to downtown from the drop off point. If you visit Sun Studio though they will take you downtown after your tour and there is also a pick up point just off Beale street. RV park was clean and safe. Staff was very friendly.

I am guessing on the rate. We stayed there for a month and I'm not sure what the comparable daily rate is. The park is clean and neat and it's on the grounds of the Elvis Museum and behind the Hartbreak Hotel. That means that you are basically staying at Elvis' very own trailer park - Ye hah! Seriously, we had great fun. The immediate neighborhood is a little tough but not that bad. A local bar/restaurant runs a free limo to the park and their place and that's very convenient.

After dinner, they will bring you back. This was our 1st visit to Memphis and we noticed the area is somewhat rundown. We would have rated the c/g higher, but the price is a bit steep. I don't think Memphis is for us. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park is located right behind the Heartbreak Hotel on Elvis Presley Blvd. This park is within walking distance to Graceland. This park is also a Good Sam Membership. The price is worth the convincer. It is small park, but nice and quite. It is clean and well maintained. The have a small gift shop in the office. What we liked about this park it has a security guard before driving up to the park, which is part of the Heartbreak Hotel. We would absolutely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Just an average park. Not many amenities. Level sites with some grass. Not easy to access from the interstate. Plus we missed the turn into the entrance and had to back tract on busy Elvis Presley Blvd. It is adjacent to Graceland and is a very short walk to the grounds, which makes it excellent for visiting Graceland.

This park fits the classic line ... it is what it is. This is a nice park short walk to Graceland and a free shuttle to downtown. The sites are close with gravel pads and not much to look at. But the staff is friendly and the park although somewhat dated is very clean. We came here to see Graceland and for that this park is perfect. The Wi-Fi was great and although there is no cable there are about 10 air channels. Its a simple park great for a couple of nights to see the attractions. I would return to see the sights.

We came in late and sign in was easy. There is a security guard house at night. The sites are basic with grass and stone pads. New trees are coming up. There is a nice but small pool, a nice area to walk the dogs, large laundry area (coin), there is a nice shady playground area and friendly staff. There is a tour company that will pick you up at the campground office, as well as a restaurant that specializes in the Elvis experience that will pick you up at your site in a pink limo. Walk to Graceland and the other Elvis museums instead of paying for parking in the lot worth $8. It was worth every dime if you are in Memphis for the Elvis experience. Good Sam park. When visiting Graceland we will stay here. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was a nice park with extremely friendly, helpful staff. The sites had level, gravel RV pads, and the utilities were in good shape and well positioned on the site. There was no cable TV but the reception on the Memphis TV stations was adequate for news, weather, cartoons etc. There was plenty of grass between the sites but there was absolutely no shade. The sites were a bit close, but still plenty of room. We had a pull through site and had no problems positioning our 33’ fifth wheel. The restrooms were clean but were not air conditioned. The pool was very nice and stayed open late during our stay in mid July. This park is perfect for visiting Graceland. Everything is walking distance. I had read before our trip that some folks were concerned about safety and security in the area. We stayed here 2 nights and felt a constant presence by the staff and had absolutely no concerns what-so-ever for our safety or security. I was perfectly comfortable in this park. The Rock N Roll cafe is located in front of the park (actually in front of Heartbreak Hotel) and we saw a great Elvis show and had a good meal. Kids were able to go in and we had a great time. The staff at the Rock N Roll cafe was awesome. We highly recommend this park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This park was barely adequate for an overnight stay. The site we got was a narrow back-in. The biggest surprise was the volley of six shots somewhere outside the RV in the middle of the night.

Called ahead to reserve a site. Was able to reserve a site, but not able to "pick" which site we wanted. The friends we were traveling with has an asthmatic child, so we did not want to be on one of the gravel roads. Upon pleading, they said they would see what they could do. We arrived 8:00PM Friday night and office was closed. I had called earlier and they said they would leave directions to our sites. When we arrived, there were no directions. We were forced to grab two remaining sites in the back that were on a gravel road. Upon discussing with the manager the next morning, they moved us to two interior sites with full hookups. Campground was relatively clean, bathrooms clean, and the campground is centrally located in Memphis, but entrance is very hard to see even in the daylight. The Memphis airport is a couple miles away and the FedEx jets woke us up each morning at 4:30am. If the noise of the city does not bother you (sirens, cars, gun shots), you would enjoy this campground. It is right behind the Graceland ticket center, so that is very convenient. Got funny looks from neighbors when kids were playing in the street. Got the feeling kids were not welcome. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Just an update for 2007. As all previous reviews state, it’s walking distance to all Elvis attractions. Excellent WIFI; more than enough TV stations on the amplified antenna; very helpful and knowledgeable staff; washrooms a bit dated but spotless. Bus stop right across the road for those who want to see the Beale St attractions, or you can catch the free shuttle from Heartbreak Hotel to Sun Studios. Rock & Soul Museum highly recommended, as is the Irish pub at Peabody Place, but overall the city looks just a bit depressed. Price quoted includes the Good Sam discount. A great place to stop for Elvis & downtown. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is very overpriced. We paid close to $50/night for our medium sized family. The park is directly across the street from Graceland, which still doesn’t justify the price. The sites are gravel, mostly pull-thrus, and are spaced about 12 to 15 feet apart. There is a sign at every site “Do Not Park on Grass,” though you can’t really tell where the site ends and the grass begins. We did have some ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS during our stay. On the first night, our voltage went down to 109V. After that, the voltage seemed to hover between 114V and 118V. When running the air and microwave, the 30A breaker in the service box kept blowing, which has never been a problem before. We inquired at the office and were told that they had just spent a bunch of money upgrading the electrical. That didn’t explain why the 20A breaker in our box was broken. Anyway, the fellow came out and checked the voltage at the outlet and said the breaker must be OK. He obviously knew nothing about electricity. On a good note, the park does have a nice open field at the back for walking dogs and playing with the kids. The laundry is nice as well. Unless you really need a close place to Memphis, I would encourage you to look elsewhere. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice folks checked us in and gave us all the info needed to have a great time in Memphis. Don't blink or you will miss the sign. You also need to know that Memphis is the home of FedEx and there are a gazillion jets leaving out of there around 4am every morning, so if they are taking off to the West, you will get an ear full.

This campground is directly behind the Heart Break Hotel and is within a short walking distance to Graceland. The sign for the campground is fairly small and hard to see until you're right on top of it but the entrance is just before Graceland. The campground is clean and well kept even though its older. The staff was very helpful in planning our time to tour the sites in Memphis. They gave us some great ideas on how to get around for free using tour buses. The only thing I wish they had was Wi-Fi for the Internet. They do have a dedicated phone plug in the office for your computer but they limit the time to use it to only 15 minutes.

Close to Graceland. The entrance is the same driveway as the "Heartbreak Hotel", and the sign for the RV park is small and easy to overlook. While parked here for two days we saw almost every RV miss the driveway and have to turn around further down Elvis Presley Boulevard.The entrance also has a huge, RV-bottom-scraping bump. The sites are very small, requiring unhooking and sideways parking of a tow rig for our 36' 5th wheel. The signs at each site admonish, "no parking on the grass" but it's almost impossible not to do so on many sites. Sites are close together, and lacking in shade. There is a gate in the fence to walk to the Graceland tour entrance. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Would not want to spend a week or so there, due to the closeness of the sites, but it's a great place to overnight, and especially if you want to visit the Elvis attractions. A gate opens between the campground and the Graceland attractions. Good easy on and off the interstate system. About ten minutes from downtown. Twenty-five miles from the casinos in Tunica.

Happy to escape from Hurricane, and have a safe place to sleep with power. But, for anyone wanting to bring (4) children somewhere to keep their minds off of the disaster at home, this is not the place to bring them. It is merely a parking lot and nothing more. This seems to me like a park for workers. It is very loud, by the railroad and the interstate, and I was unable to sleep much at all. There is nowhere for children to play, literally. We had to leave to bring them elsewhere to expel energy. Only positive, is electricity, and I brought my laptop and with WIFI, I was able to watch the Hurricane information locally at my home with updates. It just isn't a vacation spot for children. It is, though, close to many attractions in Memphis. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was the worst campground I have ever been to. It is a Good Sam Park, but obviously Good Sam has not checked this one out. It is nothing but an old 1 story office building turned into private residence and office (to collect your money) and the broken up concrete parking lot is where you park your RV. Along side a noisy highway, no shade, very little grass. A real dump! If I could really rate it, it would be -100 for extremely poor. Would not recommend to anyone to stay at this place. E-mailed Good Sam Club to let them know they definitely need to check this place out before putting their name on it. Would have felt safer in a rest area. You cannot even see the river from the RV park. (Now I know why they call it RV park as that is all you can do here). We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This campground is an equestrian campground and therefore has a problem with horse droppings which results in a fly problem. The restrooms were dirty and the showers in the womens bath houses were so dirty that my wife refused to use them. I believe that the state of Tennessee could do better job of upkeep and make this a real nice campground. I would not recommend this campground to anyone for any reason until cleaned up properly.

This is a beautiful park just south of Memphis. It has huge trees everywhere, lots of space between rigs, and you feel like you are living out in the woods. The staff was friendly, and lots spaced far enough you felt you had privacy to just enjoy the woods. Plenty of area for walking or bike riding. Paved interior roads and sites made it easy in and out for us. A great place to feel in the country, yet close enough to visit Memphis easily. We would happily stay there again.

What an absolute gem! Yes the drive through some of the suburbs may raise questions however entry to the park immediately squashes any problems. This is a gorgeous park which is beautifully maintained and kept very clean and tidy. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The bathrooms are perhaps the cleanest I have seen in a long time and it even has a laundry (75 cents a load!!). It is within easy commuting distance to Graceland and other major attractions and is very quiet and peaceful. Very family friendly.

What a nice place! As we were driving to the park entrance, it seemed as if our GPS might be wrong because we drove through an urban area with some dicing looking neighborhoods, and we couldn't believe there would be a state park and campground here, but then all of a sudden, there it is. And what a nice place it is. We are really glad we didn't lose faith and just kept driving. And you need to stop at the office and read the incredible history of the person who this park is named for. This now on our list of regular stops on our annual trek between Minnesota and Florida.

This park is just outside of Memphis and is the nice close in urban area park I've been in. The sites are well space. The bathrooms and showers are clean with good water pressure and plenty of hot water. They don't have sewer but have a dump station on the way out of the park. There's kind of a vague industrial hum that you hear, more like white noise than anything specific. Outside of that it's pretty quiet. One review commented on the road in but out side of a couple of small pot holes it was fine. We camped in a nice pull through site under what we found out latter was a pecan tree. Downside was you were well aware of when the nuts fell off the trees and hit the roof. The upside was there were plenty of pecans laying around free for the picking. If you're coming to Memphis and don't want to do a lot of driving from sites farther away I'd recommend this place. We camped here in a Motorhome.

If you need to go to Memphis, this is the place to stay. It is quiet, shady and never crowded. The only small negative is the road from Highway 61 to the park. It is 3 miles of bumpy city road.

Access to this park completely stinks. Roads to the park are in horrible condition with omnipresent construction and traffic. The neighborhoods you need to drive through are run down and scary. Once at the park entrance, the rangers leave at 4:15 and the welcome center is boarded up tight: security shutters and all! We almost turned around. Good thing we didn't. It is a FABULOUS park. Everything is neat and trim and gorgeous. It's well patrolled by Sheriff and Rangers and the camp host is a joy and very competent. Bathrooms and showers are some of the cleanest State Park restrooms anywhere. Sites are spacious, clean and trim. Trees are wonderful to rest under! We loved our stay. Too bad it's not more accessible. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Well maintained, nice state park area. A little off the highway but a pretty nice golf course on site made it worth while. We probably come back if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Beautiful park, I agree, however it is surrounded by some pretty run down areas. Road construction at Exit 9 on I-55 forced us to detour thru some rather seedy neighborhoods. Exit 7 would be a better choice for the time being. No real problems encountered. Security appeared good at the park. Facilities are very nice. Don't be put off by signs saying, "Primitive Camping Area". All sites have water and electric, and dump station is top notch. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very quiet and under-utilized park. Some branch impingement on the roads and backing into spots. Pool is about 2 miles away within park. Bathrooms and laundry rooms excellent. Would camp here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is a hidden jewel. Very spacious sites and very very shaded. You will most likely have trouble getting a satellite signal but it is possible with all the trees. Clean bathrooms and showers. Getting there is is not to bad. You get to see the real Memphis. We had a very pleasant stay while visiting Graceland and Beale Street. We would stay again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a great place to stay! We did the whole Memphis thing, Graceland, Beale Street, Sun Studios, and the BBQ Festival. We were in the middle of everything! We checked out the other area campgrounds with a drive thru pass(which were more expensive and smaller spaces) we were so happy that we choose T.O. Fuller State Park. There was no sewage but the bath-houses were so clean with private "lock the door showers" a great laundry room and free Ice, and being handicapped the price was only $16.00 a nite. Since we stayed 5 nights it turned out to be a great deal at a great park. Round the clock security and a ranger that stays in the campground made our stay quite pleasant! All state park campgrounds could learn a thing or two from this one! We camped here in a Motorhome.

I liked this park because I prefer public or state parks over private anyway but this park is a beautiful and quiet park. Now there is a couple of things i must point out you do drive through a not so good area to get there (no way around it) and their was a distinct odor in the air when the wind was a certain way possibly a rendering plant or something they produce or manufacture in the area this was disturbing but the restrooms and laundry were spotless and the host was very helpful. It was a great way to visit Memphis. We stayed here three days. We camped here in a Motorhome.

While the park is a little hard to get to from the interstate and takes you through a rough looking part of town, the park itself is very pretty. The campground is well maintained and the bathhouse is clean and heated. Wind direction can make the park a little stinky. It is a small campground and does not take reservations so call to make sure they have spaces. The Indian museum near by is worth seeing. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We wanted a public campground within easy driving distance from Memphis sites, and this was great. The area you drive thru getting to it makes you a bit nervous (pretty run down), but the campground itself is lovely. We were there in March and it had only a few other campers - very peaceful, lots of birds, great dog-walking spaces. We also did some bike riding - roads were mostly traffic-less. Only about 15 min. to downtown Memphis. Very helpful campground host. Overall much better than we had expected (despite the occasional heavy rains and thunder storms). We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a small campground with good facilities. The "Pull-Through" sites are short, but most of the back-in sites will accommodate large rigs. There are limited recreation opportunities and the trail system is not maintained and hard to navigate. This park does not take reservation so get in early. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We had to be pretty motivated to locate this park but once in, we were glad to be there. Quiet, clean, super laundry. Easy drive to Graceland and Bealle St. Tables and fire rings. Nice play area for children if you've got them. Fall leaves were wonderful. Lovely walks. Will return if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were so sorry that we came in late afternoon and had to leave first thing in the morning. What a lovely park! You do have to go through some different areas to get there, but it's a gem. You might want to have a water regulator with you. We arrived after the office was closed, but the park ranger was so nice and made us feel at home. We would certainly return to this campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a beautiful, peaceful park--one of the nicest places we have stayed east of the Mississippi. Park personnel were friendly and helpful. I am permanently disabled and have a Golden Access Pass for National Parks. Some state parks honor the pass so when my husband went in to register, I told him to ask if T.O. Fuller did. They not only honored it (giving us a rate of $10/night instead of $18) but they did so without asking to see the actual pass! Nice people, fantastic park--15 minutes from downtown Memphis. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed at this park for three nights in April. Although the road to the park passes through an industrial zone, this park is a hidden gem. On the downside, the hiking trails have not been kept up and need some volunteers to bring them back up to a decent standard. On the upside, where the paths can be found, they are beautiful. The park is 12 minutes from Graceland. An outstanding attraction even for the casual Elvis fan. There is a very interesting Indian village (Chucalissa) right beside the campground. The park also boasts an excellent and inexpensive ($10/nine holes) golf course. The staff were friendly and helpful. This park simply needs more campers. It’s definitely worth a visit. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a great park and very close to all the Memphis attractions. Graceland is about 10 minutes and you can get downtown/Beale in 20 minutes. Amazingly for a state park, there is a laundry room with 3 washers and 3 dryers. Washers are a mere $1, driers .50. There's even an ice machine in the laundry room. Don't believe I've ever seen an ice machine in any CG. Staff is friendly as is the camp host. Prices increased on 4/1/2008 to $20, $18 for seniors and $16 for seniors with TN plates. The only reason this park didn't get a 10 is the airport noise. I'm very surprised it hasn't been mentioned previously. When those Fed Ex jets start taking off around 11PM, you will know it. Friday nights are lighter traffic and there's no traffic on Saturday night. A white noise machine (you could use a bedroom overhead fan) and earplugs were essential. All in all, this is probably the best bet in Memphis, though you'll have to do without park Wi-Fi and when the trees fill out in the late spring, satellite TV will be difficult. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I agree with the others that this is a nice little park. Perfect for the "vacationer" or people just passing through town. Water and electric sites only. Mostly shaded with tall trees. If you want to use your satellite system, get there early and get one of the few open to the southern sky sites. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a wonderful place to stay away from the commercial area of town. It is a quiet, clean and friendly camp. The hosts were wonderful, very helpful and caring,especially when tornado warnings were threatening. The sites are nicely treed offering some privacy. This park is a 10 minute drive from Graceland and under 30 minutes to downtown Memphis, making it a great spot to camp while touring the city. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This Campground is a hidden gem amidst the hustle and bustle of Memphis. It was all that we expect (or at least hope for) in a state park: huge sites, nicely treed, good access roads, clean facilities. The score wasn't downgraded for no sewer at site or no WiFi, as we don't expect those amenities in a state park. The campground host was very friendly and informative, as was the staff in the Visitor's Center. When driving in from I-55, you travel through an industrial area along Riverport Rd., but once you turn into the park grounds, the setting and atmosphere change dramatically for the better. The park is located about 6 miles from Graceland and 8 or so miles from Beale Street...very convenient for sightseeing. We stayed for three nights and wished we could have stayed longer...and that just about says it all! We camped here in a Motorhome.

A nice campground located in the midst of a state park that includes a golf course and some hiking trails. There are several long pull-thru sites for anyone that is just passing through but since it is so close to Memphis it is a very nice place to spend a few days. The water faucets are unlike anything that we have encountered in our 13 years on the road. There is a label on each of them describing how to operate them but even with that, often times the campers have to consult with the camp host to get them to work. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground was slightly hit by a tornado. Damaged some trees, but did not cause a problem getting around the campground. This is a small campground. Restrooms were clean. Persons at reservation office were nice but not really friendly. Camp host was nice, friendly and efficient. Sites are pretty close to each other but no problem with extending slides. This is not my favorite campground but is good for a few days to run around Memphis. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
