Northeast Jackson neighborhood rich in recreation options
Jackson’s Gilmore area consists of several smaller subdivisions packed into a singular pocket rich with recreational attractions. One of the city’s largest parks and two golf courses— including the public Jackson National Golf Club—all border this suburban community. Residents of Gilmore are also anxiously awaiting the construction of a Great Wolf Lodge, which will be located just minutes from the community. The Lodge, a chain of indoor water parks and resorts, will feature attractions like wave pools and arcades. Adding to Gilmore's plentiful recreational options are the area's major youth baseball complex and the collegiate baseball outfit. Rounding out the appeal of this community are the homes—some of which come with backyard docks and Spanish tile roofing, a rare design in Tennessee. “The good thing about these homes is they’re really, really custom. They all look good and their sizes and shapes differ considerably. They’re really clean and well kept,” says Robert Eatman, a Realtor with Town and Country Realtors. “It’s one of the better places to live because of the proximity to everything. Even the biggest Kroger is in that area.”
North Park in Gilmore is one of Jackson's largest green spaces.

Contemporary Traditionals and ranch-style houses on spacious lots
Gilmore consists of homes mostly ranging in size from about 1,500 square feet to 3,500 square feet, with lots of up to an acre. Some properties even include groups of oak trees that spread across front lawns. “What they’ve built there is nice. The streets are not necessarily through-streets, so that slows down the traffic,” says Jane Betts, a Realtor with Town and Country Realtors. “In fact, there’s a portion of Country Club that actually got cut off because the residents wanted it that way, so that there would not be through traffic when the bypass kicked in years ago.” Betts is referring to Country Club Lane, which ends right before it enters the Gilmore area. The neighborhood’s architecture primarily consists of contemporary Traditionals and brick ranch-style homes but also includes a few Colonial Revivals too. Depending on size and condition, prices here mainly run between $250,000 and $400,000. However, there are a few outliers. Homes with footprints smaller than 1,500 square feet can go for under $200,000, while larger houses with lakefront property can run between $500,000 and $800,000.
Gilmore is home to many ranch homes.

From multi-use North Park to massive youth baseball complex
Gilmore residents don't need to leave their own neighborhood to stay active. The Ramblewood Estates subdivision, for instance, provides a community pool, which residents can access through an annual membership. North Park has an all-access playground with swings, multiple ramps and bridges, plus animal-themed fixtures that children can crawl through . The park also has baseball, softball and soccer fields, as well as tennis and sand volleyball courts. Street hockey fans will enjoy the park's in-line hockey rink. Golf-enthusiasts can get some rounds in on the tree-lined fairways of the Jackson National Golf Club’s public 18-hole course. While the private Jackson Country Club is another golfing option that provides its members with access to the course, as well as amenities like indoor and outdoor tennis courts, pickleball courts and a 24-hour fitness facility. A short distance east of the neighborhood is the city-owned West Tennessee Healthcare Sportsplex, a regional destination for youth baseball teams. The venue consists of 17 fields spread across 70 acres. The Sportsplex also neighbors the local Sky Zone, a trampoline park.
Gilmore is surrounded by several parks and green spaces such as North Park.
