Great place to enjoy family! Walking trails , lakes to fish , paddle boating , new "Go Ape" obstacle course,in the tree tops, with zip lines going across the lakes , horseback riding and more!!????????

The BEST playground in Memphis . Bypass the sand/water pod and head to the rope & treehouse pod in the back. It's less messy, shady, and way more fun!

Melissa Baggett

Bring an ice chest with drinks, folding chairs, change of clothes/towels for the little ones. There is an interactive water feature that the kids love!

The Commercial Appeal

This state-of-the-art playground is the first of its kind. The design is partly inspired by kids who took part in a play "workshop" where they designed their own ideal playgrounds . Read more

Do the "Green Facts" Scavenger Hunt- find all the signs that explain the sustainable , eco-friendly features of the playground .

Nitia Cheveallier

Don't ever lose anything here though. You may never get it back. Even if it was turned in at the help desk. Chances are, it will dissapear from the help desk itself.

Miss V

Great playground and park area. But too many unruly children and their rude inattentive parents.

Dave Lewis

Bring a set of drumsticks or mallets to play the tuned Klang Discs at the Musical Wall.

Miss V

My daughter loves the place, but there are too many bad ass kids with parents aren't supervising and modifying their behavior.

Melissa Baggett

Bring cash for the Kona ice truck !

Irene R
