The main falls in rock island state park are a site to see. They stretch a few hundred feet wide! Slowly cascading down a side of a rock faced wall. It is a short but tenuous hike to see the falls. But, they are some of the best you can see in the south east. Maybe not the tallest or most water flowing, but it is a beautiful, slow, and pooling fall. As an added bonus the river it flows into is controlled by a dam, so you can at times get up to the waterfall, and at other times raft the river which I'm guessing is a class 3-4. A friend of mine has rafted it from the northern most spot to put in to the falls, and he said it was technical, he's done it a few times now.

Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"Nice"

Best Western Downtown Plus Music Row

10/10 Excellent

"Very memorable stay. From the great service throughout everyone I’ve encountered, complimentary breakfast that’s actually tasty (omelettes were really good) to the extremely clean rooms and common areas, this is a well ran hotel. Also massage chairs to use in the lobby were nice to use after a long work day — I will definitely be back!"
