How to get to Chickasaw State Park
Chickasaw State Park lies along State Route 100 in West Tennessee, about 18 miles south of Jackson, TN, roughly 1 hour and 15 minutes east of Memphis, and about 2 hours and 45 minutes southwest of Nashville. RV drivers typically approach via I-40 to Jackson then south on US-45 and SR-100, a route with no major tunnels, mountain passes, or steep grades, though the final two-lane state highways have rolling terrain and tree-lined shoulders. Watch for low-clearance branches on interior park roads and tight turns near campground loops. The nearest major airport for fly-and-rent travelers is Memphis International Airport (MEM), with McKellar-Sipes Regional in Jackson as a small regional alternative.
