Full Review
Originally, we planned to stay at an RV park on the Mississippi River, in Memphis. However, mechanical issues caused us to switch our reservation to this site as it is conveniently located next door to Southaven RV center and its repair facilities.
This park appears to be relatively new. It is clean and well-laid out with level, concrete pads and wide, easily-navigated interior roads. Our pull-through, FHU paved site was long enough for bus, truck and motorcycle with room to spare. The hookups included cable TV, but since our Direct TV satellite was working again and we also pulled in a number of over-the-air local channels, we didn’t need cable. The site also included a paved patio with picnic table. However, the chilly November weather wasn’t conducive for grilling or sitting outside! Free wifi was offered (with a code), but seemed slower than my usual AT&T hotspot connection.
The park is split into two halves, with Ross Parkway bisecting the two sections. We stayed on the office side which includes the pool area, dog run, office, bathhouse and laundry facility. The other side has a building with several individual bath/shower rooms, meeting room, and a massage therapy room. Apparently on-site massages can be booked, but we didn’t investigate that amenity. That side also includes a play area and dog walk.
The website touted an “indoor spa”, which proved to be a small shed-like building with an above-ground hot tub unit situated next to the pool. Unfortunately it also proved to be closed for the season (along with the pool), which was disappointing. The hot tub would have been a wonderful antidote to the cold November weather! The bathhouse was modern, clean and comfortable.
The location is fantastic. Downtown Memphis with Beale Street and Graceland is only about 20 minutes away. The Tunica casinos are about a half hour drive. A Tanger Outlet mall is across the highway and the aforementioned RV dealer is right next door. With our Good Sam card, the price came to a daily rate of $45. Considering the amenities, this seems reasonable. There are obviously some permanent residents, but their sites are kept tidy. Office staff was friendly and accommodating when business needs required us to stay one more night than originally planned. I would stay here again while in the area.
I don’t usually give restaurant recommendations, but I have one here: Go to the Memphis Barbeque Company! There’s one located one exit north. The food was so good, we went there twice during our one-week stay, which is quite unusual for us. The BBQ meatloaf is absolutely fantastic!
Bottom Line: Great little RV park in a super location. It would be even nicer when the hot tub is available!
