A beautiful park located alongside the Cumberland River. A nice size parking lot and clean restroooms on site. The park has several picnic areas, a playground, a BCycle station, and a boat ramp, as well as the "the River Flows Museum," depicting Clarksville's rich river history. The park is also home to the Clarksville RiverWalk, a 2-mile walking trail that connects on the south end to the Upland Trail via the Pedestrian Overpass at College Street, and on the north end at the Red River across from the Clarksville Greenway. It's also dog friendly with many dog waste areas and bins along the walk. I was disappointed, however, to see so much trash and litter along the rocks and waterway. As well as a lot of hooks and fishing lines. I picked up every hook I saw and disposed of them in my short walk as well as multiple glass beer bottles. I will never understand why anyone litters or how anyone thinks nothing of it as they toss it among nature??? There were several trash cans scattered about. Just no excuses. Im also surprised the employees dont clean up the debris and trash??? Especially all the hooks and lines that endanger the birds, fish, and all wildlife.

Beautiful riverside park area. The grounds are well kept, and well groomed. It's nice to see people out on the river with their watercraft, enjoying themselves. There's also a nice path to walk on, which runs the length of the park. It also has many benches to sit on and relax oneself. On the far end on one side is a playground. It has one parking lot on either end of the park. There is also a bathroom area, with one or two stalls each. Honestly, this is the part of the park I do not like, since it is usually smelly and dirty and out of toilet paper most times. The park is beautiful, but they need to give the restroom area the same energy and care as that of the rest of the park.

We enjoy walking here. We like watching the Cumberland River and seeing the confluence of the Red River. It's always fun to watch barges go down the river while you take a walk. The railroad bridge is a swing bridge to allow large vessels pass through. Today it was swung open leading us to wonder if a steamboat passed through and imagine the lovely sight that would be. Most of the other walkers had dogs, so a great place to bring your canine friends. Today we went inside the Cumberland River exhibit and learned a lot of history. It was a pleasant way to spend some time while getting in our steps.

Trying to get in shape?? Park at the "Spur Line Park" off Union St. in the Dog Hill district. Disregard the tiny park and get on the sidewalk, take an immediate RIGHT (left is a dead-end) on the paved path to get on "upland trail" follow it down across two pedestrian bridges to the confluence of the Cumberland and Red Rivers at the end of the River Walk. It's down hill there and up hill on the way back. The grade isn't too steep and it's about 2.6 miles round trip with about 10 flights of stairs.

This review is specifically about the McGregor Park light display every year for Christmas. We go every year to see the display and the nice trees that are all decked out in lights however, I never really realized how much work Goes into applying the lights to the trees. I want to acknowledge the people that wrap those trees with attention to detail and precision placement of the lights through tiny branches in the top of the trees. It takes skills and itâs noticed and appreciated. â¤ď¸đ

Man, I'm bummed I took my son here a few times he loved it and i brought my mom and she loved it. Our most recent visit is gonna be our last for a while. The stairs are broken in one area facing the wendys and if its not fixed someone WILL GET HURT it looks like a nut and bolt are possibly missing. Some lady brought her AGGRESSIVE pitbull( like why) ....huge carpenter bees and ginormous wasps...and plethora of homeless ppl. All while it's 99 degrees.
