    Tony and I enjoy hiking around different parks..Now I call it hiking, even if there are no caves, waterfalls or mountains involved....it's basically a word I use for just plain walking around sometimes..Like here...at Winstead Park...we didn't actually hike we parked our car and took a very nice walk. We first went over and read the signs about the history of the park and the military that was there. Then we walked out the paved path. It was very nice walk among the trees and the pathway winds along the pathway of the grounds. There are a few benches in the park. There is no picnic tables in this section of the park. It is a nice area. You can walk, jog, walk your doggies or even bike if you want to. It is really nice and sort of level, with just a little up and down grades, nothing very major. You can easily take your children here and have a great time. Back at the parking lot area there is the public bathrooms for your use and they are very clean. To the left of the restrooms the path winds up hill a little bit with some steps where you will find the cannons and monuments. It is a very nice park with great over view of Franklin. A very important battle was fought here during the Civil War. It is a nice park to visit especially if you are into the historical facts of area or following the parks and facts about the Civil War. Like me??? Yep like Me !!! If you can go here, please do...if you know anything about me, you know I enjoy FREE and of course this lovely park is absolutely FREE to enjoy...can you believe that...? Enjoy!!!

    We discover this restaurant on Yelp! after we had hiked brick Island and developed an appetite. We…read moresat at the bar and had a fabulous server Leo. 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.

We first started at the castle looking playground which is Huge with many climbing structures, swing, and a sand box area! Then there is another playground across the grass area along with several more climbers! There is a beautiful paved path around the park perfect for our kiddos to ride their bikes on! And lots of picnic tables around the area which was great for our picnic we packed! Highly recommend

    There is a lot to like about this large park and it's one of my favorites. I'll break it down by…read morethe primary features. Trails: this is the primary reason I go to Crockett Park. 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.

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!

My brother used his Audubon app to attract all different kinds of birds we don't typically see in Cali. So much fun. The stream is running pretty hard right now and it's full of tiny trout.

With many options for paved or dirt/gravel paths you can find something for each occasion. My personal favorite is the 5.8 mile loop. I have yet to brave the 11.2 mile loop.
