Learn more about this land: There are a lot of soft people in the world today, if you're one of those people this isn't the place for you.  In the spring and summer the property can become quite overgrown.  Some people have had difficulty accessing the inner part of the property that is pretty well cleared and secluded.  I happen to like it that way. A quarter acre, just a stone's throw from Graceland. The property itself doesn't provide much more than a place to park, but you can literally walk to Graceland and Beale Street is only about a 15 minute drive or Uber ride. My friend has parked his 5 window skoolie with a 15 foot utility trailer without any issues. There's no access to the shipping container on the property, but you're welcome to set out a few chairs and bbq on the back side of the property as long as you're careful about fires. There are no fire rings, toilets, or running water; and certainly no power.  You're welcome to park or tent camp but understand that this property is very primitive.  If you're looking for luxury there are some amazing properties in the area listed right here on HipCamp.  Please have a great stay and message with any questions.

Camping near Memphis guide

Overview

It might be hard to tell from its advertising at times, but Memphis is a lot more than Graceland tours and Elvis Presley shrines. This Tennessee treasure features plenty of good reasons to get out and about in nature. Head about 20 miles north on TN-388 to reach Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park. The park both borders the Mississippi River and allows access to Lake Piersol and Lake Poplar Tree. Fishing and boating on the water is the main draw here. Staying overnight? You'll find six cute vacation cabins and 49 RV-friendly campsites with full hookups here. Note that this is a fairly popular park, so call ahead to check availability. If you're looking for something a bit off the beaten path, try Dismals Canyon Conservatory. You'll have to cross the border into northwest Alabama on a three-hour drive, though. This beautiful national natural landmark makes a point of keeping its campsites widely spaced out and remote. None of the sites are directly accessible by car, so get your hiking boots on!
