We was in process purchasing a horse that we was leasing at this location and signed a contract with Laura agreeing to take over the board etc. She went completely insane demanding more money voiding our contract and not allowing my 13 year old daughter on property to get her stuff because we decided to transfer to another barn due to some things that happened that are NOT okay(mosquito larva in water made him sick) Treats being stolen items being used, supplements not being given(I marked them to see if they had been scooped) She bad mouthed to me personally about other boarders so I'm sure she did the say to us. Stay away Laura has literally lost her mind!

For one it's much less busy and in the summers any bit of a temp drop is worth it. If you are physically up for it, you will sweat through your clothes. First course (green level) was interesting but ziplining is the best! Second course I chose was blue level and kicked my butt. Got pretty far but ended up taking an early exit. Great if you want to challenge yourself physically but not really for rock/wall climbing.

So upon walking in, I immediately told the woman behind the counter, "I was here in 1997, and I passed up the opportunity to milk a cow. Can you help me?" And she just laughed and told me there had been a lot of changes. The cow milking and butter churning hands on activities of the past are gone, but in its place is a gorgeous museum with amazing artifacts. It works hard to tell a linear story of the importance of agriculture in Tennessee. There's definitely a lack of identifying signage in many of the display cases, which is an oversight I'll forgive since I'd imagine most of their audience is schoolchildren that are given a formal tour. I didn't explore much of the grounds- besides a stadium used for training police horses that I definitely wasn't supposed to go in, that I peeked in after vague memories of watching some weaving display in concrete stadium seats as a kid. I will be back to view more of the grounds in warmer weather.

These guys are probably closer to four stars…read more We opted for the tubes recently. Pretty straightforward as far as picking your time/date and purchasing tix on line. There are also waivers on line that must be filled out. Staff was nice and helpful. They drive you and the tubes to a spot a little down river and off you go. Tubing is always good fun, but our experience suffered a bit due to 1). The heat, and 2). The sloooow moving current. We're talkin' almost stagnant in a few spots. We did beach ourselves a few times and took a cooling swim, which was nice. Neither of the two negatives were the fault of Broken Paddles, obviously. Speaking of which, they do give you a paddle which was a must for us. We'd probably still be out on the river. We didn't go for it (we should have), but they have coolers and cooler tubes for rent for "beverages." You text or call them when you reach the "first bridge." They pick you up at their get out spot a little farther down, after the "second bridge." We ended up getting out of the tubes and wading the last 1/4 mile. They have waterproof pelican boxes you can rent or phone bags for sale. You can leave your car keys with them. Pretty sure we'd go with the kayaks next time.

However, I had a really fun and fabulous time last weekend on the Harpeth River with a group of friends. This city girl can get down with nature...for just a few hours at least. I sincerely appreciated the options that vary from just 1 hour on the river on upwards to 12 hours for the advanced river rat. We opted for the 3.5 hour adventure and it was the perfect amount of water, beer, and paddling for this broad. I don't think that I'll ever be interested in the option of "on-site primitive camping or camping along the river bank." Call me a wimp, but a Heavenly Bed at the Westin sounds more my speed! Pricing is based per canoe and kayak and when we mentioned an "Internet Special" we enjoyed $10 off the price of a rental. For an afternoon of fun for 2 cost us around $45 which included the rental of the canoe, paddles, life preserves, and seat cushions. The staff was friendly and dropped us off at the docking point and helped us get into our canoes. The river was a fun and relaxing way to enjoy the weather and when I was feeling especially sporty, I put my jiggly arms to work by paddling like a mad-woman. I would imagine that this is the secret workout for Jennifer Anniston + Michelle Obama...how else would they get such sculpted biceps.? Just sayin. The rules of the river prohibit booze but I can assure you that our group were not the only ones that smuggled a case of PBR in our coolers + vodka in water bottles. The staff doesn't check coolers + backpacks so you can certainly bring your booze along with sandwiches, fruit, and Sun Chips of course! You can take the city out of the girl but NOT the vodka. TIP: Pets are also welcome. Chico + Bellini are totally going to be 2nd mates on the next outing!

I sometimes walk but mostly bike on the trails with a little one. They are relatively flat and because they are so long, they are rarely crowded. The trail users vary in age and there are plenty of blind curves, so it's not a place to go for fast biking. The scenery is varied and the majority of the trails are shaded. As a bonus, there are lots of places you can dip your feet in the Little Harpeth River. You can bike from Smith Park to the south to Tower Park north of Concord Road. The trails also connect to various neighborhoods, the Brentwood Library, and the Brentwood YMCA. Five stars. Playgrounds: there are several playground at Crockett Park/River Park. The main one near Woodland Middle School between baseball fields. It's large with a divided small kids and big kids section. Kids love it, and there are plenty of benches and tables for parents to sit or for a lunch break. Five stars. Frisbee golf course: 18 holes and, unlike many in the area, clear signage. Some holes are similar and a few are pretty short, but overall good course for a quick game. Four stars. Restrooms: these are all over the park. Some are closed part of the year, but for the most part they are open and reasonably clean for public restrooms. Four stars. Parking: You can park more places than I can count off the top of my head to start your walk, jog, bike ride or attend a sporting event. Amphitheatre: The Eddy Arnold Amphitheatre is great for summer concerts, of which there are many every year. Sports fields: I don't use them at this time, but they are very well maintained and there are a lot of football, soccer, and baseball fields. Parking: You can park more places than I can count off the top of my head to start your walk, jog, or bike ride. This is handy for days when the fields are crowded for soccer and/or football games, because you can avoid the traffic. Most lots are adjacent to a trail. Check it out for one or more of these features when you get a chance.
