Tom Sawyer Park West Memphis, Arkansas

Does anyone have any feedback, good or bad on Tom Sawyer Park West Memphis, Arkansas ? we are looking for an overnight park on a trip to Nashville coming up over Thanksgiving..

Thanks !
  • We stayed there in July for an overnight stay. It’s very convenient to I-40 but far enough to be very quiet. Our site was long and level with great views of the river. There’s plenty of open, mowed area if you have a dog to walk. . Watching the river is very interesting. Really, nothing negative to say. Don’t worry when driving in through the industrial area. The park is secluded and guarded.
  • We love Tom Sawyer! Last month we stayed there 4 days without disconnecting the Jeep. We just relaxed and watched the tugs and barges go by.
  • On the river and very quiet, we like to watch the barges. We haven't been there in a few years but we will go again soon.
  • I hear good reports. “The endless river traffic of the Mississippi is the main attraction at Tom Sawyer’s.” Sounds fabulous.

    Is that the COE park? Seems like it was farther north tho.


    I think this is a private park off of I40 on the Mississippi River
