Experience the variety of old and new as they blend together in this beautiful area of Middle Tennessee, just minutes from Nashville. Discover our history. Explore our country music heritage. Hear our legends and stories. Soak in the simplicity of our lake, parks and farms. After a few adventures in our county, you'll feel like you are returning home. Play. Mid-summer is high season for fun on the water. During your adventure on Old Hickory Lake, don’t be surprised if you see thundering offshore powerboats racing for prizes in a poker run or wake boarders showing off their skills at a competition. Fish. Old Hickory Lake One of Tennessee’s best fishing spots, Old Hickory Lake has produced state, national and world-record catches. In fact, some of the world’s top professional anglers have tested their skills here in a variety of tournament events, including the Women’s Bassmaster Tour, Bassmaster Elite Series, WalMart FLW and BFL Series, American Bass Angler, Triton Boat Owners, Professional Anglers Association and Tennessee Bass Federation Nation. The lake also draws thousands of recreational anglers who come in search of large-and small-mouth bass as well as rockfish, a striped freshwater sea bass that can grow up to 45 pounds. With more than 22,000 acres of water, no horsepower limits and stunning landscapes, scenic Old Hickory Lake offers something for everyone. Boat. Old Hickory Lake has enough big water to give gearheads their throttle fix and plenty of secluded coves for those who prefer a more placid setting. Fullservice marinas offer everything boaters could possibly need, including fuel, dockage, rack storage and service. 1 Rentals & Charters Cumberland River Cruises guarantees a relaxing and scenic cruise on the lake or you can book a private party. 615-451-4001 www.cumberlandrivercruises.com Rivership Cruises offers a unique and private venue for dining, business, and parties. 615-824-8511 www.captainnelsoncruises.com Shady Cove Resort rents pontoons, paddleboats, jon boats, and canoes. 615-452-8010 Run, Bike and Swim.

In Sumner County, the railroad and river were important transportation routes, and the Union Army occupied the county seat of Gallatin throughout the war. Daily life quickly changed as the area was drained of resources to support the army, and morale sank as charges of treason ran rampant between former neighbors. Learn more about soldiers, civilians, and daily life at the many sites in Sumner County that are now listed on the Tennessee Civil War Trails. Ring of Fire Trail Venture off the beaten path on the Ring of Fire Trail, part of the Discover Tennessee Trails program. A trail that is rich in music and history, it winds through portions of Sumner County such as Hendersonville where legends Johnny and June Carter Cash, Roy Orbison, and Conway Twitty called home.

Tours Gallatin Ghost Walk The Gallatin Ghost Walk is a family-friendly stroll through the history and mystery of Gallatin and Sumner County. Gallatin’s courthouse public square has been called the Most Haunted Public Square in America© and with good reason. In one building alone, the former law office of Andrew Jackson in the late 1700’s, there are 14 identifiable ghosts, mostly Confederate and Union soldiers who were treated for serious war wounds in what was then the surgery and offices of a local doctor. And, the many elegant and prosperous plantations and horse farms in Sumner County had colorful and auspicious occupants and lifestyles…they linger in a different dimension in time. Join hosts Donna and Randy Lucas as they weave the diverse and resplendent history of Sumner County with spine tingling tales of ghosts and the supernatural.
