Memphis, TN RV Parking near Beale Street?

Has anyone traveled to Memphis TN and stayed in a campground that was close to downtown/Beale Street? Or anywhere that had overnight parking for RV's?

There are several campgrounds when I search online, but they are not close to Beale street and we don't have a separate car to drive.

Thoughts/Advice?

I checked with Overnight RV Parking. There doesn't seem to be anything close. I'd suggest the Walmart on Hwy 40. And then Uber.

Or check with RV Park Reviews.

We stayed at the KOA, but it is not near downtown.

After hours anything near Beale St. can get rather seedy and is a rough area..
You would be better off going to Tom Sawyer in W. Memphis and using uber or similar servers.

We stayed at KOA in West Memphis, very nice. We didn't go to Beale Street but we have been there, a lot of fun but it is seedy off Beale, we taxed in from a hotel at that time but you could from West Memphis.

When visiting high density areas we camp on the outskirts, drive in for the day, find a parking space or lot and do our sights and events by foot. Much cheaper and safer. i.e. San Antonio, Las Vegas, Memphis and areas around LA etc. When we need a car, we usually rent one if we are visiting around in one area for a week or more. Most times a car is not needed.

We stayed at Graceland RV, right across from Elvis' Graceland. All other Elvis related attractions are right there also. We then took the toad to Beale Street, and also to SUN Records studio. Take the tour, well worth it.
