The bathrooms were extremely well maintained. It was pouring rain and there were tons of people at a very large event and I was so impressed with the cleanliness of the entire facility.

Great place to visit. Shelby park is large, well maintained and very well laid out. The trails are easy to follow and very dog friendly. Restrooms are evenly spaced out and clean. We also saw plenty of deer and buffalo in the park.

Nice building, but looks out of place at the farm. I think something more conforming would have been nice. Ie barn resemblance. See Arrington Vineyard property as example.

I love having our morning walks on weekends regardless of the public situation. You need to get out and get healthy this is definitely a part to come to to free your mind exercise and get in fresh air. As long as no one smoking! The ducks are friendly you can get close but proceed with caution they are territorial. It is dog friendly he will run into old neighborsNew friends it really depends on you and what you are open to. The bonus is win the canoes are available I suggest take it out on the water along with it like this and ensure that someone in the boat knows how to swim just in case no lifeguards on duty. You will enjoy yourself and there’s nothing but opportunities to make your life free of stress by enjoying nature.

A nice gift shop, sandwich/salad shop, clean restrooms and outdoor seating round out a nice day at the park. The parking lot offers electric vehicle charging and has specially designated parking spots for hybrid vehicles.

My rating would be higher, but its COVID-19 times and lotsa folks present outside the building/vendor spaces, probably the majority, had no mask or they will not wearing them. (The vendors employees were wearing them.) Its a nice spot, but the COVID-19 risk-sharing doesnt cut it for me.

Shelby farms park offers an amazing experience for every visitor. No matter what age, if you are feeling suffocated by the urban Memphis atmosphere, there is plenty of space at Shelby Farms. The countless and year round activities cannot be compared to any other attraction in the city. The mountain bike trails are my favorite attraction, as well as the acres of diverse habitats to explore.

Review №51

Fantastic porch with enormous ceiling fans in ample covered area with nice view overlooking the lake. The cafe has a nice selection of progressive performance snacks and drinks (none of that overprocessed fat fare of yesteryear), though is a bit pricey. Theres a good selection of free movement classes (yoga and general fitness) but the indoor rooms are designed more for meetings than movement. and lack enough space for more than 10 people.
