It surrounds a small lake and was a great place to walk around and unwind after a very long day. In addition to the city hall, it is also next to the library and police department. We as a community need parks to gather in and come together as a community. While I was at this park, I noticed a photographing a young girl as her proud family stood nearby beaming. She held balloons, so they were commemorating a significant moment in her life and wanted to memorialize it with a professionally done photo shoot and chose this park as the setting. I enjoyed my time at this small but wonderful park. If you find yourself in the area, I definitely recommend that you check it out.

Yesterday, my friends & I decided to workout here and we had a great time and a productive workout despite it being crowded. We parked pretty far away so we could walk over the bridge, but we could've parked onsite. The water is so crisp and refreshing. I love being downtown on the riverfront enjoying the scenery. If you are from the city or if you are in from out of town you have to stop by to enjoy the beauty of nature on the Mississippi Greenbelt Park!

My friend visited me in Memphis, so I took her to Bass Pro Shops at the Pyramid…read more The interior has a really cool wilderness theme and feels way more grand and unique than a typical Bass Pro store. We also went up to the observation deck at the top, which was such a fun experience. The view over the city and the Mississippi River was amazing. The only thing I wish is that we had gone at sunset. It would've been even more beautiful. A Must-Visit for friend visiting!

There are lots of fish (BIG fish!), crocodiles and more! There's an aquarium too. It's a typical Bass Pro Shop... but on steroids! You can buy almost anything sports or outdoor related here. Boats, fishing gear, camping gear, apparel... there's a fudge shop too. You can eat at Mark and Donny Walhburg's restaurant or stay in the on-site hotel! We didn't take the elevator up to the top for the outdoor balcony view. As of October 2025 it's $8 a person to ride up. Easy to get to and free parking!

We use play on the Indian burial mound by sliding down with cut out cardboards. At the time, we were kids and we didn't know that there were Indian buried here. We are very sorry. They had several canyons. There is a Lookout Post mound with a small wooden door where you can see the Mississippi River. The park is kept up very nice and clean. The Marine Veteran Hospital was vacant for years. It is now revocation into nice apartments. I highly recommend the visit with the Metal Museum.

From a city planning point of view, this park is well thought out.

There is great potential for this space, but the lighting was so harsh, it drowned out the beauty of the Mississippi River and the mosquitoes sent us back inside. The menu prices are very reasonable, but be prepared to pay for parking (you can get a small discount by validating your parking ticket inside the restaurant). Keeping my fingers crossed on this one! I will definitely try BSL again because Robbie was so professional. Perhaps, I will add more stars, if BSL irons out the wrinkles.

The grounds are kept up to a certain point and then not, and there is poison ivy everywhere, and the camp host... what camp host.

It was just a disappointment really. And you know it was if I didn't take pics of our stay. What a shame really to see it being let go.

We only stopped for the night on our journey but I regret not having a full day there to explore. It looks like there's good trails and a nearby Native American site as well. To address other reviews about how bad the area is: yes, it's industrial and yes you drive through an impoverished area, but if you're more upset about how that offends your sensibilities and not upset about the fact that industrial areas are polluting vulnerable neighborhoods and a park that has significant black history then I would sit with that for a while. We also had no issues with any waste water treatment or factory smells - I would imagine that all depends on weather and wind.
