There are some Walmarts in Arkansas where overnight parking is prohibited ... but I could not see Forrest City on any of the lists.  We use a Walmart directory to find stores and phone numbers ... I would call the store ahead of time to be sure.

If that doesn't work out, you could try W. Memphis Walmart (870) 732-0175...pretty sure I've stayed there before. West Memphis Walmart Supercenter Info, Reviews, Photos

There's also a TA, near there if you are ok with truck stops.

Thanks to All.
The answer is "yes, check in Security Guard and he will tell you where to park"
* I'm not sure if I'm brave enough to try West Memphis !
Thanks Again.........~JL~

I found this place with the Allstays app:

Walmart Possible Parking
205 Deadrick Road
Forrest City, Arkansas 72335
Phone: 1-870-633-0021

Overnights were OK as of March 2014.  As usual, check in the customer service desk.

 We prefer to stay at the rear of Church's when possible, much quieter than Wally world, especially when the sweeper comes aroiund at 4am to clean parking lot. And all those lights.
Suggest you keep way back on the property and do not use genset, we have never had a problem.

Yup, those WalMarts can get pretty noisy especially if there are semis overnighting as well.  And then there have been some where it has been just fine.  More often than not we are just passing through.  A few laps around the store doesn't hurt after driving all day.

I haven't tried a church (not the fried chicken place) yet.  All you have to do is ask.  Most people are pretty accommodating.

Sorry been off the air for a while.  We stayed at Walmart, Forrest City, Ark last month.  We were most welcome there .  They also have Diesel.  Just turn right off main street and left into the parking lot.  We parked on the right side up front out of driveways.  Three others there.  We stayed going and coming from Nashville. They have a security patrol all night which is really nice.  Talked to manager (not necessary) and he said rvs welcome anytime. Even put the slides out.  Well lighted parking lot.
The interstate there is constantly being worked on// so lots of construction. It is very rough driving for a very busy truck area.  Good Luck.  DAN

Thanks Dan.
Yes Roger, WalMart is not my favorite vacation spot but for a 6 or 8 hour nap it's pretty handy.  We've done the same at a Church a couple of times.  Try to get out real early.
Thanks again every one..................~JL~.........
