Four Corners RV Resort and Marina in Nashville, Tennessee, offers 82 full-hookup RV sites and six boat bungalow and tiny house units on J. Percy Priest Lake, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 70 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, open all year. Dedicated fifth wheel categories join lakeside and deluxe back-in tiers, with a marina, pool, fitness center, and bar. Eighty-two back-in sites span deluxe east, deluxe west, lakeside east, fifth wheel deluxe, fifth wheel lakeside, and fifth wheel standard categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 70 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Dedicated fifth wheel categories are genuinely uncommon and worth knowing about if that is what you tow. Six boat bungalows and tiny houses plus cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Check-in is 2pm and checkout noon, with early and late options for a fee. The marina anchors the property, with boat rentals opening the lake for boating, paddle boarding, canoeing, kayaking, water sports, and fishing. An outdoor pool, fitness center, clubhouse, sports courts, pickleball, basketball, golf cart rentals, hiking, biking, a playground, pavilion, dog park, on-site dining, and a bar fill the rest, with live music through the season. Twenty miles from downtown means kayaking at sunrise and a Broadway honky-tonk by evening. Summer lake season and Nashville's event calendar both drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

Serendipity Resort & Campground

4 Cabins, 9 Yurts

Serendipity Resort & Campground in Brownsville, Tennessee, offers four A-frame cabins and nine yurts on a lake in Haywood County, with a water park, outdoor pool, beach, and disc golf course. Golf cart rentals, on-site dining, and a bar serve guests in the Hatchie River corridor of West Tennessee. Four A-frame cabins and nine yurts make up the accommodations — this is glamping and cabin lodging rather than an RV park. A general store, restrooms, firewood, and WiFi serve the property. Check-in is 3:00pm and check-out 11:00am. Note that four-wheelers and side-by-sides are not permitted, though golf carts are available to rent — contact the resort for rates. The water is the draw. A lake and pond support fishing, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boats, and boating, with a beach and water park for swimming and an outdoor pool alongside. A disc golf course, horseshoes, biking, a playground, and a pavilion fill the grounds, with on-site dining and a bar for evenings. Pets are welcome. Brownsville sits on US-70 between Memphis and Jackson, which gives the resort practical West Tennessee highway access. The Hatchie National Wildlife Refuge protects a nationally significant stretch of bottomland hardwood nearby — the Hatchie is the longest un-channelized river in the lower Mississippi valley, and the surrounding agricultural landscape has kept its character. The resort serves the West Tennessee season. Summer water recreation drives the heaviest demand, with spring and fall delivering more comfortable conditions for the outdoor programming. With 13 units total, reserve well ahead for any weekend.

Bloomington sits on State Road 46 in Monroe County.

Ozark Outdoors Resort

Few Ozark destinations pack as much river adventure into a single address as Ozark Outdoors Resort, a sprawling riverfront property on the Meramec that has been welcoming families to Leasburg, Missouri, since 1960. The resort lines one and a half miles of the Meramec's scenic banks with more than 200 RV sites, motel rooms, cabins, and tent sites—enough variety to accommodate any travel style under the towering hardwoods and limestone bluffs that define this corner of Crawford County. A full roster of water-based recreation, aerial adventure, and evening dining ensures guests rarely need to leave the property once they've settled in. RV sites range from primitive to full hookup with 20/30/50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer, and a picnic table and fire ring accompany each site regardless of hookup level. Cabin options span rustic Country Log Cabins and Deluxe Kozy Cabins to motel rooms, condos, and group retreat lodging, giving the resort the flexibility to host family reunions, corporate outings, and church groups as easily as solo travelers. The Meramec Mercantile supplies camping essentials on-site, while the Paddlers Bar and Grill serves seasonal meals and cold drinks at the water's edge. Float trips on the Meramec, Courtois, and Huzzah Rivers form the beating heart of the Ozark Outdoors experience, with canoe, kayak, raft, and tube rentals available for half-day or multi-day journeys through crystalline Ozark spring-fed water. For those who prefer their adventure overhead, the Floating Treetops Aerial Park delivers 36 unique challenge elements across six ziplines suspended among the forest canopy—a course that engages first-time climbers and seasoned adventure seekers alike. Sand volleyball, horseshoes, and a swimming pool add land-based options when the river crowd thins in the late afternoon. The Meramec River corridor hosts some of Missouri's most spectacular cave country, with Onondaga Cave State Park just upstream offering guided boat and lantern tours through one of the Midwest's finest show caves. Meramec State Park, a few miles east on Highway 185, provides additional hiking trails, cave tours, and a family aquatic center popular with summer visitors. The resort's position between St. Louis—about 75 miles northeast—and the Missouri Ozarks interior makes it a natural launching point for exploring the Salem Plateau, Ozark National Scenic Riverways, and the Current River corridor to the south. Float trip season runs April through October, with June and July delivering the warmest water and the most festive atmosphere on the Meramec, when the resort's campground fills with the laughter of families who have made the Ozark Outdoors float trip an annual tradition. Spring and fall bring lower crowds, quieter campsites, and a more contemplative Ozark experience for those who prefer their river adventure without holiday weekend energy. Reservations are strongly recommended for summer weekends and holiday blocks—the combination of riverfront camping and the Floating Treetops aerial park draws visitors from across the Midwest, and popular cabin styles book months in advance.

Roundabout Oxford RV & Water Resort

144 RV Sites, 20 Cottages

Roundabout Oxford RV and Water Resort sits on US-278 West in Oxford, Mississippi—150 RV sites and 20 cottages on a property anchored by a 2.5-acre water park in the rolling hill country of Lafayette County, 10 to 15 minutes from the University of Mississippi's campus and Oxford's nationally recognized restaurant and literary culture. The resort's combination of a fully developed water park with lazy river, swim-up bar, and adult pool alongside RV accommodation in the Ole Miss corridor makes it the most recreation-oriented camping property in a part of Mississippi that has become one of the South's more sophisticated small-city destinations. Full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp service serve back-in, pull-through, and buddy configurations, all with water and sewer connections. The water park's signature feature is the 912-foot Swayze River—a lazy river where guests float the day away and stop at the Hoka Hut swim-up bar for frozen drinks—alongside a main family pool, an adults-only pool with sun shelf and loungers, a water slide, and a hot tub. The resort's social spaces extend beyond the water park: the Grand Lodge with its sunset balcony, Molly Barr Bar, a community pavilion, and an arcade accommodate evening entertainment. Mini-golf, basketball, volleyball, GaGa ball, pickleball, biking, and dog parks for both small and large breeds fill the dry-land recreation roster. Oxford, Mississippi, has developed a cultural identity that extends well beyond its university status—the city's literary heritage, rooted in William Faulkner's decades in residence at Rowan Oak (now a museum and literary site open to the public), has made it the South's foremost association between a small city and canonical American literature. The Square, Oxford's historic courthouse-centered commercial district, contains a concentration of independent restaurants and bars that rivals cities several times its size, and the city's commitment to locally owned hospitality—from Taylor Grocery to City Grocery to the breadth of James Beard-recognized chefs who have operated in Oxford—gives it a food culture that draws visitors from across the South. The University of Mississippi campus provides the recreational and cultural infrastructure of a major research university: the Grove tailgating culture before Ole Miss football games in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, the University Museum's collection including the Theora Hamblett folk art works, and the Oxford Conference for the Book (hosted by the university's Center for the Study of Southern Culture) make the campus an active visitor destination beyond football season. John W. Kyle State Park, 25 minutes north on Sardis Lake, provides swimming, boating, and camping in the dam-lake landscape of the Tallahatchie River watershed. Roundabout Oxford RV and Water Resort operates year-round, with the water park season and Ole Miss football schedule driving the two primary demand peaks—summer for water park family camping and fall for game-day overflow from the Oxford lodging market, which fills to capacity for home football weekends when the university's 80,000-seat stadium operates at full capacity. Reservations well ahead of game weekends are essential, and the resort's short drive to the Square and the stadium make it a practical base camp for the Ole Miss game-day experience at considerably lower cost than available Oxford hotel rooms.
