Pictured is Gay Street and the Tennessee Theatre! This is downtown's main street - I recommend at least driving through! I also recommend Market Square, a walking around shopping restaurant center off of Gay Street in downtown. Parking is very easy at Market Square garage, either free or less than $5.
Also in downtown, you can pay to go in the ball!
Less than a 10 minute drive from the Clinton hotels. Must see sights at the lookout point across the bridge. Hiking trails and an old grist mill. Free and easy!
Beautiful state park with lake views and walking trails. Free and easy and a 2 minute drive from our house and a 20 minute drive from Clinton hotels. Check it out before or after the get together!
Beautiful up close lake views and only a 13 minute drive from Clinton hotels. I highly recommend swinging by!
Lots of cool man made water holes surrounding downtown Knoxville. Meads Quarry, Ijams Quarry, and Fort Dickerson. Hiking trails and great views. All free.
Right in downtown- cross the Henley Street Bridge for some great University of Tennessee Football and downtown views.
Now, I wouldn't recommend visiting unless you're experiencing a medical emergency, but you will pass Isaiah and I's workplace on the drive from the airport - don't forget to catch a glance!
