T.O. Fuller State Park Campground

This is a very nice little state park. Close enough to the sites in memphis while far enough out on the edge of town to be quiet. The washrooms / bath house have just been renovated and are exceptional. Theres a small laundry if you need. Habachis and fire rings at most sites, walking trails etc.. The senior rate was a bonus.

As we drove through the edge of Memphis we were worried as it was very dumpy however once into the park and having met the rangers we were totally at ease.

Verizon was not usable at 1MBps while AT&T was great with a 20MBps download speed

Great place!

If you visit Memphis, this is a very nice campground! The restrooms/shower house is newly remodeled and there is a laundry room (wash $1.50; dry $1.00). The sites are full hookup and the site we stayed on, #35, was so level we didn't have to use drive-on blocks.
If you are 62 or older, they give you half off your campsite which turned out for us to be approximately $15.50/night (for 5 nights, including a weekend, in February).
The campground is within a 15-20 minute drive to most attractions in Memphis depending on the traffic. It's been so nice and convenient for us, that we decided to stay a few extra days!

The communication from park after reservations online was detailed. The drive into the park goes through some pretty sketchy neighborhoods. There is very little to no Verizon service once at the campground. There are lots of trails and a museum. Park was busy on a late fall weekend.

We stayed in site 28 with a 40’ motorhome. We could not get level without one set of wheels in the air!
FYI Senior discount is valid even if you are from out of state.

The campsite is almost level, with power and water. The area looks nice and forestry, unlike the surrounding community. The campground smells like sewage at times, even though there are no sewage hookups. Decent amount of wildlife. The shower/ restroom situation is concerning. The women’s room is under construction so men and women share the men’s room. There is no toilet paper, the trash is overflowing, and the state of the bathroom is poor ( feels like a prison). The campground trash cans are overflowing and no one has mowed in awhile. I’ve been here 2 days so far and the visitors center has yet to open. Once the bathrooms are fixed this may be a nice place.

If I was the family of T O Fuller I would demand the state take my family’s name off! Bath room’s disgusting! Grounds need mowing! Women’s bath out of order! Showers look like someone has been in there shooting up! Glad I showered this morning In Oklahoma because I’ll just spit bath tonight. Save yourself the money, time driving through some sketchy neighborhoods, and aggravation and go camp in a dumpster somewhere.

We were happy to find a park so close to Memphis attractions, but it’s not a very nice one so consider pros and cons. Apparently there is a sink hole close caused by a plant nearby which is only 50 feet above sewer line and makes the whole campground smell bad. The drive to the park is through a pretty rough neighborhood which caused us to worry about security. We weren’t comfortable to stop at nearby gas stations. Bathrooms were not updated or clean and the ladies room was closed for construction so the men’s room was co-ed. I am no princess, but still don’t like to see a clogged urinal. Oddly so close to town, but no cell service and out antenna found only one Christian TV station with services all the time, no local news.

Ranger was very nice.

Place Is Seriously Run Down And Unkempt. We Had Stayed In 2019 And It Was Much Nicer Then. Biggest Issue Here Is The Electricity. We Moved To FOUR different Sites Under the guidance of A Polite Young Ranger. All Had Zero Power Or Error Readings/surges On Our Surge Suppressor. We Finally Found One Spot That Worked (43). It Seems They Have No Maintenance Workers Here. Bathrooms Are Beyond Sad And Old. We will not return.
(We stayed at a reduced senior rate plus fees)
