Nashville is lovingly known as Music City and offers visitors a big helping of everything country. If you’re looking for world-class music venues, a rich history, and the chance to spot celebrities both on the stage and in the street, this city is for you. Nashville cabin rentals make you feel like you’re home during your time in this popular Tennessee destination.
Things To Do
Nashville’s attractions are naturally rich in music-themed venues. Check out the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, take a stroll down Nashville’s Music Mile in the Music City Walk of Fame Park, or check out RCA Studio B where Elvis, Dolly Parton, and Chet Atkins have all recorded hits. If you’re looking for a live show, Nashville won’t disappoint with regular engagements at the iconic Grand Ole Opry. Looking for something more intimate? Check out the Bluebird Café where up-and-coming artists test their talent.
For historic highlights in Nashville, don’t miss the Parthenon in Centennial Park. This full-scale replica, constructed in 1897, pays homage to the Parthenon in Athens and houses the city’s art museum. Visit Belle Meade Plantation to tour a 150-year-old Greek-Revival mansion, dairy, horse stable, carriage house, and log cabin. Other popular attractions include the Nashville Zoo, which boasts a petting zoo and playground for younger children, as well as the Tennessee Central Railway Museum where visitors can enjoy themed rides throughout the year.
Transit
Bus transportation around Nashville is available on the Metro Transit Authority. The Music City Commuter Rail operates Monday through Friday with six stations between Lebanon, east of Nashville, and Riverfront Park downtown. Lyft and Uber are active in Nashville as well, for convenient transportation from Nashville vacation rentals throughout the city.
Climate
While Nashville experiences all four seasons, the winters are mild. January is the coldest month of the year with daytime temperatures in the 40s F. Summers are hot and humid with highs in the upper 80s and nighttime lows around 70. The spring months are rainy with frequent thunderstorms, while autumn is dry with just 2 to 3 inches of rain in October.
Food
Nashville’s iconic foods focus on hearty Southern fare. Local icons like Prince’s Hot Chicken Shack get packed around lunch, but the outstanding food is worth the wait. Some of the city’s best dishes are found in unassuming locations, like the modest building that houses Arnold’s Country Kitchen. The line extending out the door only hints at the decadence you’ll enjoy in the form of juicy fried green tomatoes, crispy fried chicken, and creamy banana pudding.
Nightlife
Nashville’s nightlife is perfect for music lovers. Take the stage yourself at a Printer’s Alley karaoke bar like Lonnie’s Western World or Miss Kellie’s Karaoke Bar. For live music that includes jazz, blues, and other departures from the country scene, try Sambuca any night of the week. Get a big helping of kitsch and a predictable good time at Paradise Park Trailer Resort. With two dozen beers to choose from and a full liquor bar, you can’t go wrong. Even local celebrities are known to enjoy Paradise, and you never know when a famous performer might hop on stage.
