There is a nice creek that runs about 3/4 of the way around as well. Truly just a wonderful slice of nature to go enjoy! I especially enjoying walking a couple laps here with my kid in the stroller before we head over to Harvey since that path there is extremely short. The path here claims it is 0.90 miles, but it's more like 0.80-0.85 just as an FYI to those counting the miles.

Aspen Grove Park is tucked away just off of Cool Springs Boulevard between business/office space…read moreand retail plazas. The plaza it sits directly behind houses McAlisters, Moe's, Burger Up, PF Changs and more. The main entrance is located on Aspen Grove even though the address shows Cool Springs Boulevard. When you pull in, you pull into a small parking lot, a brick building that houses the restrooms to the left, start of the trails to the right and then a nice brick pavilion that houses several picnic and patio tables, a fireplace/grill and a little free library station. Just beyond the pavilion is a grassy area and playground. The park has one main trail with four off shoots creating 5 paved trails each ranging from .10/mile to .60 mile. If you make a few laps you can make a nice distance out of it. Most of the trails end and start in the park area, however one ends/starts near Core Life eatery. All the paths are paved and 90% of the trails are covered in foliage. The trails also feature a few cool bridges that cross the creek, and there are a few grill/picnic areas along the trails as well. I have driven by this park for years now, and honestly am surprised at the space and trails. I am impressed with the simple layout, covered trails, cute creek and the calm that it brings, even in the middle of retail and office suites!

The crab cakes were a 4/5 - my husband felt like there was a little too much filler. The remoulade was delicious - and it would have been good to have just a bit more. I had the lamb chops on top of chimichurri sauce, which was a great way to serve because you get to decide how much sauce. The lamb chops could have had the fat trimmed a bit pre and they were slightly overcooked but not enough to send back. Just a note to the kitchen. My 2 sides were loaded Brussels sprouts and they were cooked perfectly. I also had the cowboy corn sauce, which was delicious. My husband had a burger, which was a 5/5. Roll was great and completely prepared to his order. Drinks were delicious - I had the Coco Melon. Nick had beer. We definitely will be coming back.

Absolutely Outstanding Tennessee State Park - A True Hidden Gem!…read more We just wrapped up an unforgettable evening at Henry Horton State Park, and it easily earns every one of its five stars. Located along the beautiful Duck River--one of the most biodiverse rivers in the world--this park offers the perfect mix of relaxation, adventure, and family fun without feeling overcrowded. The campground is top-notch: spacious, well-maintained RV sites with concrete pads, reliable Wi-Fi, clean and modern bathhouses, and plenty of peaceful wooded tent and primitive options (including some great backcountry sites for those seeking more solitude). We loved the thoughtful amenities like the camp store, playgrounds, splash pad, and even a nature play area that kept the kids entertained for hours. Activities here are incredibly diverse. We hiked several of the easy-to-moderate trails, including the scenic ones along the Duck River with observation decks overlooking wetlands teeming with wildlife. The 18-hole disc golf course is one of the best we've played in Tennessee--free and well-designed. Golfers will appreciate the championship Buford Ellington Golf Course right on site, while paddlers and anglers flock to the river for kayaking, fishing, or lazy tubing. Bonus points for the trap and skeet range if you're into shooting sports! The on-site restaurant (Governor's Table) serves surprisingly delicious meals, making it easy to grab breakfast or dinner without leaving the park. Staff and rangers were friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the park--always quick to offer tips or help. Whether you're camping, staying in one of the comfortable cabins or lodge rooms, or just coming for a day trip, Henry Horton delivers a peaceful, well-kept escape that's perfect for families, couples, or solo adventurers. It's close enough to Nashville (under an hour) but feels like a true getaway. We can't wait to return--highly recommend for anyone in Middle Tennessee looking for quality outdoor recreation.

Just like kids are supposed to be. After they tired of the assortment of knuckle busters, I lost sight of the skalawags. But soon, I found them on the other side of the park. They were engaged in a sword battle using fallen branches. I thought to myself, this ain't gonna end good. Sure enough, one got stabbed in the leg, and the fallen soldier had to beat a quick retreat to the infirmary. Oh, to be a kid again. Quick Tip: Bring along some salted beef, biscuits, or maybe a wheel of cheese matey. There arrrr plenty of picnic tables for ye to set the bones on.

Surrounded by a paved walking trail (just shy of 1/3 mile long), the playground has plenty of equipment for little ones on up through elementary & middle school set on wood chips. There are several benches around the edges of the play area for parents to relax (unless you're on swing-pushing duty) while watching their kids run off some energy!
