Shopping

There are three major shopping malls that you may wish to visit. 
The Galleria in Cool Springs (10 Minutes), is a regional center with a wide variety of clothing, shoe,  jewelry and specialty stores.
Green Hills Mall (15 Minutes) features high end specialty stores i.e. Louis Vuitton, Tiffany, Macy’s, etc. 
Opry Mills (20 Minutes).   Opry Mills is a large outlet center plus Bass Pro.

The antique shops of downtown Franklin and Nashville's 8th Street South are becoming well known haunts for the sophisticated buyer. 

MISCELLANEOUS
General Jackson Showboat    This paddlewheel steamboat leaves Opry Mills and travels up the Cumberland River to downtown Nashville and back.  The General Jackson has lunch and dinner cruises and features various entertainment acts during the year.  A delightful trip. 

NashTrash Tours (as seen on the Today show)   A humorous look at our country, southern culture and all of the sights of Nashville.

 

RESTAURANTS
The Brentwood, with its central location, is convenient to the best restaurants in the area.  We have a large “menu book” so you can review selections and prices for all types of places.   We do not include menus of any restaurant that we have not shopped and that we would not return or recommend.

SPORTS
Nashville is the home to the NFL Titans football and the NHL Predators ice hockey teams.  Both generate good crowds.
The Iroquois Steeplechase is an annual, world renowned event. http://www.iroquoissteeplechase.org/ Every May, horse lovers from around the world gather to benefit Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital.  
 

In addition, Nashville is blessed with excellent golf courses, biking and hiking and canoeing.  There is a wide range of golf from which to select from moderate priced public golf to higher end daily fee courses.  Biking and Hiking is available at several nearby parks with more than several thousand acres of great trails of wildlife and scenery to explore.  River canoeing is available at the Loveless Café off Hiway 100.
