We did see some turtles and ducks, which was fun for the kids. Lots of fish in the lake also, since we saw someone catch some.

You will find a few picturesque bridges along the way and the trails are well defined and easy to navigate. This park is linked to the Germantown Greenway so, you can run/hike/bike here for miles. It is a beautiful park. The park has an adequate amount of spots to park in in its free private lot. You will find picnic tables and benches along the section of the park that runs along the lake, a very select few of which have a small shelter over them. I cannot confirm or deny if the lake is stocked or not, but there were a lot of people fishing there during my visit. One negative of the park, that it is out of its control is that certain of it areas are prone to flooding after a rain. It is nothing too bad though. This park is well maintained and is a diamond in the rough. I really enjoyed it. It lacks many of the amenities that I look for in a park, nut I took it for what it was, a nature trail park, and found enjoyment in that. It does not have any playgrounds and I could not find any restrooms. There aren't any other recreation activities either such as tennis, basketball or green space, but this park works and I highly recommend checking it out if you are looking for a nice place to hike or relax on a small lake.

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. There is someone there with a tarp over their rv, water dripping out the backside of it, and when you do see them they do not acknowledge you at all. Why are they even there? 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. The rangers can only do so much and they were very friendly and helpful.

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.

They do canoe tours for members along the Ghost River. Early on an October morning we drove out to the end point and then were dropped off with our guide and motley canoeing crew. Both of us had been canoeing before but not in a long time and that became readily apparent as soon as we got in the water. Our guide was very helpful though and before long we were able to steer the canoe...kind of. Our tour was lots of fun. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area. We learned a lot about the river itself and the natural world surrounding us. The river and its surroundings were stunning. I would recommend a tour to anyone who wants to get out of Memphis and into some wilderness.

The address on the site is for the sort of "clubhouse" and that is fairly near to the start, which is actually at the North Parkway "bridge" where the RR stubs off and runs through the neighborhood to Jackson Ave. It is mostly unpaved, dirt/gravel with the "blue blobby" sculpture at the N. Parkway end, a couple of small footbridges & some benches along the path. It's probably about 1.2? miles all told - I ran from Tutwiler (starting at the GlenMary apartments) to N Parkway end, doubled back all the way to Jackson & back to N Parkway to get just over 3 miles in. It felt very safe - houses on either side & other walkers, joggers, cyclists, dog walkers. it's nice!
