Debbie’s property was truly lovely .. I can definitely recommend it and we’ll surely return there again. I camped overnight following a long drive from New Orleans .. It’s hard to describe the feeling I felt pulling into the property. Pure calm and relief and gratitude to have found such a beautiful place and a person willing to share it.

Beautiful property! Tent camp setup with lights tables and BBQ by the pond, but we were encouraged to pick any spot. Garbage can and table were dropped off where we set up. Life jackets were provided and our kiddos had a great time on the pond in the paddle boat. Bathroom w/shower in barn were clean and well appointed. Pancake breakfast was a super nice added bonus. If we find ourselves in the area again we’ll be stopping by!

This spot had it all. The hookups were easy. The view relaxing and quiet. I enjoyed meeting and talking to the host Shay. She is kind and easy to live next to. I felt comfortable and welcomed there. We booked extra nights saw some deer and a hawk. Some lovely nature views while visiting the sights in Memphis.

This gated location is very private and safe. Campsite #1 felt a bit cluttered though because of the piles of landscaping materials surrounding the RV area (the host runs a landscaping company from that location). It worked great as a safe place to stay within Memphis but I would not recommend it if you’re looking for a quiet and scenic getaway.

We had a great camping experience. The walnut tree above us did make contact with several of us 😂 but overall it was terrific

I enjoyed my stay there. I think it's good for saving money if you just need a safe place to pitch your tent and aren't really going to hang out much at the campsite. It is a scenic livestock farm out in the northern Mississippi hill country. Dogs bark and roosters crow so it's a good idea to have ear plugs.

Very nice secluded area. No fault of the host that Mother Nature unleashed a full rain that we checked in. Peaceful quiet easy to access. 5 stars.

Spacious park with lots of shade trees and singing birds. After driving through tornado watches when we arrived the office was closed. I called and was met at the office to find out where our hookup site was. Unfortunately it was a Tuesday so the restaurant wasn’t open. And the water park would not be opening for a few more days. We had a shady spot under a large oak tree. We were able to take showers and the facilities were clean, the water was hot. The night was peaceful and quiet. We only stayed 1 night on the way back home from an East Coast visit.

Beautiful place.
Only issue at all was the fire pit at #2 had garbage in it from last guess and it appears the squirrels may have found it.

Great location and great communication! Very clean and peaceful with the sounds of birds, geese, and random donkey chatter. Definitely going to visit again for our next Memphis trip.

The spot was great. Very quiet, had a lovely sunset view and lots of cute wild animals running around in the field. Would definitely be back! Shay was very helpful, friendly, and accommodating.

Fantastic site. Tons of space to place your tent. Beautiful area next to a lake and farm. Plenty of land to walk around and enjoy. Debbie was a great host. She greeted us when we got there and said bye when we left.
We got to enjoy throwing the football, making a fire, and grill on a charcoal grill. Well worth the trip. Lucky to have been able to enjoy it.

Quiet, beautiful, grassy spot accessible by covered bridge, and nestled in the trees overlooking a charming pond, with a fire ring and plenty of fire wood- perfect for a relaxing break or to split up a long drive. The barn has a bathroom and shower. Debbie is charming (we only spoke to her over the phone b/c we arrived late and she had dinner plans), and her location is perfect. The location is remote (though you can hear the highway on a quiet night)- you are secluded and feel far away from the world, yet Memphis is a short drive and creature comforts are even closer. My husband and children were very happy with our perfect camp spot. We enjoyed the rolling hillside, the swings, the friendly donkeys, the talkative geese and the beautiful night sky (we were lucky enough to see a pink full moon rise).

We loved camping at ChrisLeigh Farm! Set up was perfect with picnic tables, fireplace, and string lights - plus an available bathroom and shower. The property is beautiful! We enjoyed the pond with geese and baby ducks and the lovely covered bridge. Debbie is a kind and generous host. We came to paddle the Wolf River. It was a rainy weekend so we came back wet on Sat. I asked if we could hang up some stuff in the barn to dry. But instead Debbie offered to throw our clothes in the dryer. Talk about going the extra mile! 10 out of 10 stay.

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!
