I actually had a hard time finding Gateway Island. My GPS kept taking me to the parking lot of on W. College street. I laughed at myself. You have to physically walk through an area to get there the way I navigated. At least I had to. I was so not prepared for how beautiful and peaceful Gateway Island is. It has walking trails, with well-lit paths, a lake with lots of ducks, the babies were staying close to their Mommies.There is a waterfall and such beautiful, lush landscaping throughout the park. The park is adjacent to the Fountains at Gateway, offering access to many wonderful eateries.
There are public restrooms, a gazebo and picnic tables.
The park is available for rent for weddings and events. What a beautiful backdrop for a wedding! If you have not checked out this gorgeous spot, right in the middle of our city you should. I promise you will not be disappointed.
If you are looking for things to do in Murfreesboro visit Cannonsburgh historic village, you will not be disappointed. I have visited many times and I always discover something new. It is a 6 acre pioneer village in downtown. Cannonsburgh Village is located at 312 Front Street.
It is family friendly and the little ones will love it! The village is a community treasure, it was founded in 1976. It represents early Southern Appalachian and life in Tennessee from the 1830's to the 1930's.There is a schoolhouse, post office, a gristmill, a doctors office and homestead houses.There are antique exhibits , and it is home to the worlds largest cedar bucket, originally created in 1887 and restored by the Rutherford County Blacksmith Association. I love every building in the village, but the church is my favorite. The day I snapped these pictures the sun was just pouring through its stained glass windows.
Self guided tours are free at Cannonburgh Village, Tuesday through Friday 9:00 to 3:00. They have a cute gift shop in the visitors center.Because Cannonsburgh Village is free to the community, donations are always welcome.
