Since Sam Davis home & grounds aren't too far from us (and we'd never been there) we thought this would be a fun thing to do. We got there & were told that the guide was out with a group & it would be approx. a 45 minute wait. We bought our tickets & looked through the museum & gift shop. There was a video that gave all the backstory & it was quite interesting. Our guide was Rodger and he was wonderful!! We toured the home & he had interesting stories & really knows the area well! The stairs in the house are steep (just for those that might have a problem with them). You can tell where the old cabin became part of the bigger house. Loved that there were so many original pieces in the home. Recommend checking this out!

Tony and I went to Stones River National Battlefield and this Monument is located on the same side of the road as the National Cemetery just a few yards down the road from the Visitors Center.

If you want to go on a nice walk with your kids or animals..to enjoy a great walk during the afternoon and learning some Great Historical facts...you must go here !!! I highly recommend this area, even if you are NOT a history Buff, like me!!! IT's Ideal just for a great hour or two or longer of enjoying God's Backyard and the beauty of Nature..

Laser tag area was large enough to keep them engaged without being overwhelming. Nice variety of arcade games. The party room we had was spacious, well decorated and the boys loved the huge screen tv to watch their favorite anime show while eating their pizza. Everything including the bathrooms was clean and hand sanitizer was available. The party package we chose included laser tag games, arcade game card for each guest, card with extra credits for the VIP birthday person, pizza, drinks, plates, forks, napkins. They did allow us to bring in a cooler with extra cold drinks and cupcakes. Staff were super friendly and responsive. They worked with us to figure out the best flow for our group as far as coordinating our laser tag games and pizza/cake. Had 2 last minute guests that they helped us seamlessly add on to our package. Boys had a great time. Highly recommend and we will definitely be back.

Checking in for a birthday party I just assume you walk right into the party room you were invited to. The setup of the cool lights entrance to the laser tag room to get your gear. Was pretty cool.

While waiting for the kids to play they had a few options of arcade games and the claw machine that seems like it was a tease. But overall if you ever run out of ideas or where to throw a birthday. I guess here a great option to get some fun.

One thing that I found especially poignant is that at a few moments I came across the graves of Confederate and Union soldiers laid to rest side by side. At the end, they were all Americans who had fallen during those terrible days. I think that it is important to remember the history of our great nation. This is an important destination and if you are in the area, I definitely recommend stopping by both here and the battlefield.

With a friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff we couldn't have had a better experience. This is a beautiful and stunningly gorgeous mansion that was owned and maintained for years by the Maney family. Although during the week days it's a self guided tour there were plenty of signs/markers in each room that explained much. Plus there was a docent who around who answered all questions and in fact offered my wife to see a video of the upstairs. Unfortunately my wife's arthritis had made it a bit difficult to climb up the stairs to see the beautiful bedrooms. We truly enjoyed our visit and my wife even purchased a pie bird in the gift shop as a memento.

There is plenty of free parking right in front of the building in a paved lot. The entrance has a traffic light which made getting in and out easy. The admission price was comparable to an indoor playground. I thought this was reasonable since they have more to offer than the average indoor playground. Memberships would be the way to go for people who live nearby. The main area of the first floor has a water play area, a pretend fire truck, an arts and craft room, a pretend boat, and a room of imaginative play. The imaginative play room had exhibits including a grocery store and puppet area. The second floor had a train room, an old car, a play mechanic area, and a rotating exhibit section. We spent most of our time inside since it was cold the day we visited. We saw the fox enclosure and walking paths. We plan to return on a warmer day to explore this more. The Discovery Center has plenty to offer for hours of fun.
