The Berry Farms Publix location is your closest location to the cabin. It is a great location that we use all the time. Also if you have never shopped at a Publix, you maybe asked if you would like to be assisted to your car. They aren't judging your abilities as a human, they ask everyone (staffing availability allowed). They do not take tips for this service, and they are not offended if you turn them down. (If you are shopping with kids you need to buckle into carseats, it is truly is phenomenal.)

We are so excited that this location of Edley's recently opened. The meats and sides are excellent and the outdoor eating area is really well done. Order first and then sit. There can be a line out the door but it moves at a decent pass. Or pass the line and sit at the bar.

Downtown Franklin One of my favorite restaurants in downtown Franklin. I always get the lentil soup as a starter. It is best to have a reservation but small parties can often get in on weekdays.

This is a little bit of a drive from the cabin, but if you are towards Cool Springs, Brentwood or coming back from Nashville, this is my favorite Thai in the area. Eat in or get it to go (call ahead if you can). Personal Favorites Tom Ka Soup Spring Rolls Curry Pad Thai Atlantic Roll

A typically bowling alley of your childhood, minus the indoor smoking. They also have a smaller bowling area geared towards kids that is an option to bowl if not occupied with parties. Fun arcade that my kids enjoy.

This farm has become quite the day trip. They have a petting zone, rides, a massive playground, rides, a huge slide, and so much to do with kids during the day. You can pay extra for pony rides and gold mining. ***Do not go to Lucky Ladd without checking their website first. They are open seasonally and will close inbetween seasons to gear up for the next.*** ***I would not recommend driving to Lucky Ladd and buying admission tickets at the gate. During fall especially they will sell out especially on Saturdays.***

Hiking

Under an hour drive (46 miles) will get you to this recreation area. In a 1.2 mile hike will get you to a beautiful waterfall. Plenty of flat area to wade so bring you water shoes if you have them. This hike is dog and kids friendly. There are lots of hills.
Short hike to beautiful waterfall.
