This is a great place to go on Friday or Saturday morning. It's easy hike to see the falls from an overlook, or you could even take a kayaking trip up to the base of the falls!
Same idea as Burgess, but this park is a little bigger and you can go swimming right in front of the waterfall!
There is plenty to do in Nashville if you're willing to make the drive (about an hour). The Station Inn and 3rd & Lindsley are some of our favorite live music spots. There is also Centennial Park, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Fifth and Broadway, and much more!
If you have never been to Buccees, you should go while you are in close proximity. It is a measly 35 minute drive from Cookeville and you won't regret it. If you have been to Buccees, you've probably already looked this up.
