The entry road into Memphis South RV Park was full of potholes. |

The office was closed but
an envelope was on the door waiting for the two RV Gypsies because they
had called ahead for reservations. Office hours on this date were 8
a.m. to 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. So the two RV Gypsies continued
on into the campground to their assigned site. But there was a giant
mud puddle in the middle of the dirt road that they had to drive their
RV through. Check out time on this date was 11 a.m. (Any Campground
hours may be subject to change) |

Below: The roads were awful,
especially the big mud puddle (partially shown above), but the site
had nice green grass. |

Only a few TV stations came in here. ABC was not one of them, even though it was listed on their map. And if anybody moved around in the RV, the picture became scrambled. This has happened at several campgrounds lately. Cell phones worked. The campground had coded Wi-Fi but it also stated that other people might be able to see what others are doing when on the campground Wi-Fi. And since the campground Wi-Fi was super slow anyway, the two RV Gypsies used their own Wi-Fi which was much faster. The campground map showed a laundry room and pool, but the two RV Gypsies did not walk around the campground to check it out. Community visitors may use the pool, but they have to pay a fee at the office.
The above comments are just the experience of the two RV Gypsies. These comments do not make the campground good or bad in general.
The two RV Gypsies did not find anyplace or anything of interest in the area to do, or in nearby cities, so they did not do anything. They could have probably driven into Memphis, but they have already been there several times. So it was a day and a half of grocery shopping, working on this web site, and cleaning the RV. Sometimes that is just necessary. |
