  • Lots of fun for the whole family
    By Kami, 04/06/06
    Very nice Zoo. Great habitats. It is under ALOT of construction with new exhibits happening alot in the next year according to all the signs. Compared to my last trip there in Nov 2004, it was great. The elephant exhibit is done and is very cool with several different places to see from. Some being closer to the elephants than others. The habitats ...

  • great little zoo
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/26/06
    This zoo is not the biggest one in the world,but it is growing and improving. The thing that separates the nashville zoo from others is that the animals are happy. they are not in cages,they are housed in natural looking exhibits. They have elephants,red pandas, clouded lepards,cougars,and much more. They are growing faster than any zoo I have ever ...

  • Great Things are Happening!
    By Matthew Sullivan, 03/24/08
    Nashville is blessed with great and growing Zoo. It is very manageable, walkable, educational and fun. Our family's favorite portion is the Bamboo Forest, which has an amazing atmosphere and some wonderful species. The Meerkats are a lot of fun to watch as well (Timon from the Lion King).
    If you have younger kids, don't miss the ...

  • Loved it Loved it Loved it
    By traveling west, 04/28/08
    I loved this zoo. The animals were well cared for and the park was clean. We took our own lunch and had a picnic. The playground was AMAZING and my two year old loved the carousel. We will go again if we are ever in Nashville

  • Better since moved to Grassmere
    By RoadMap, 06/15/06
    I have been coming to the zoo off and on since Nashville got a zoo. I like this Grassmere location a lot better than the original location.

    The Nashville Zoo has a respectable animal collection, and the atmosphere is very enjoyable. Nice picnic areas and pavillions for groups.

    It is easily laid out and easy to find signs to get you around.

    Has always been an enjoyable experience going here.

  • Noise Level
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/10/06
    The zoo habitat and animals are great.I know
    that noise is expected and children do get
    excited, but the useless screaming is hardly
    needed to enjoy yourself. Very little parental supervision

  • Nice zoo, but not fantastic
    By Lady Bug Pink, 03/22/07
    Really like that the animals have SO much room - but be prepared to do a LOT of walking. My favorite part of this zoo is Grassmere itself. Make sure you tour the home and grounds around it. Very beautiful in the Fall.

  • A good zoo to visit
    By Heather M, 04/16/08
    The Nashville Zoo is a nice little zoo. It is currently undergoing expansion, so in the next few years, it won't be a little zoo anymore. It seems that, though the zoo itself is on the small side right now, they have given great thought to and put a lot of money into the animal exhibits. The exhibits are spatious and beautifully landscaped ...

  • Wear walking shoes!!!
    By toodles, 04/23/08
    I loved how there were things for people of all ages. Just be prepared to wear walking shoes. They really isnt an easy way to get to each spot without walking and sometimes walking up a hill. In the summertime bring lots of water, especially for little ones, there isnt much shade. There is a house on the grounds is the origonal owners of the ...

  • Nice Zoo
    By captkiddmom, 09/13/05
    The Zoon is a nice one, but comparing to the original Nashville Zoo - there is no comparison. Grassmere just doesn't have alot of charm. Regardless, my younger kids really enjoyed the experience and we are glad there is a zoo in Nashville. If you're visiting the zoo just because you're in Nashville, you might want to think twice about it.
