The Grand Ole Opry, an American Icon and Nashville's number one attraction, is known for creating one-of-a-kind entertainment experiences for audiences of all ages.

With country music's new stars, superstars, and legends live on stage, you never know what'll happen next. See the show that made country music famous.

Because my wife and I toured Nashville over the last two days I decided not to pay the 27 dollar entrance fee but just did the above stated things here. I had paid enough in entrance fees the last couple of days but got a sense of what this place was all about by touring some of the building without doing the guided tour. I walked the grounds and shopped in the Gift Shop. It is certainly a grand place were big name acts plus up & coming stars play on this stage. I enjoyed it here by just doing what I did here today without costing me a dime expect the cost of a t-shirt to take home back to Canada.

This fort, built in 1779, is staffed by costumed staff who explain the history of the region's earliest settlement.

I spent time at the historic Mansker’s Station and it was a great experience. If you love history, this is a must see stop. The Station portrays tow significant time periods in Tennessee’s History. The Fort is an authentic replica log station that was built in the early 1780’s and the Bowen House, which is also close by, was constructed in 1787 by Captain William Bowen and was the birthplace of Tennessee Governor William Bowen Campbell.
From early March till early December are the hours of operation, Monday-Friday. Rates are reasonable. Children 6 and under are free.
Bring your camera for there are tons of photo ops.

This is an amazing park! It has something for all ages! I have two girls age 10 and 4. They both have such a blast when we go! Plus it's a great place to meet parents from the local schools and Daycares around town.
4. Hermitage Golf Course
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 40 reviews
Reviewed By BloggerLinda - Johns Creek, Georgia
They have two courses, The President's Reserve and The General's Retreat. Both are very nice courses. The Reserve is spread out with nice, wide fairways with little water. It's the easier of the two. Since it was added later, it is secluded. There are restrooms as well as a half way house. Has many elevated greens. We preferred The Retreat. A much more scenic course with lot of water. The issue is that it is more of a links course. There were many people yelling "Fore" because their ball was headed into another fairway. Restrooms on the course and the halfway house is in the club house. All carts have GPS systems. We stayed in some of there new two bedroom two bath cottages. They were a great deal. They have a sitting room, kitchenette, fridge, coffee maker and each room has two queen beds and an adequate bathroom with a shower. There is a putting green and fire pit right behind the cottages. It's a 30 minute ride into town or ride share $40 one way. Since we played both days there, it made sense to stay there. Would do that again.

This place is a good place to keep my son busy and entertained for the entire day. Lots of bounces and we always get the managers special for lunch to save money. The special is a hot dog or pizza, candy and a drink for $3.99. I always take him early before it gets busy in the late afternoon before the big kids get there .
great place to have fun
7. Historic Rock Castle
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 60 reviews
Reviewed By 82lelandp - Hendersonville, Tennessee
The draw is the historic home made out of local rock quarried near by but there is much more to the visit. The house sits like a beacon overlooking Old Hickory Lake and the grounds draw you in to another time. You must tour the house, walk the trails and experience the peace and quiet! In addition to the history, we have enjoyed the local songwriter's nights, Nashville Symphony and a recent fish fry. Don't miss the Danile Smith Days or any of the period events held throughout the year. You might even catch a wedding or music video!
