Ready To Getaway

It gets a little batty at Duber Cave State Park, where its most prominent natural cave used to lend its big roomy mouth to local square dances, radio shows and big band instrumental concerts; the cave is now temporarily sold out due to a thriving bat community. Bats aside, there's plenty of outdoor recreation like fishing, hiking and picnicking to enjoy, making a trip to this bat cave well worth the drive.

The musical talents of Jimi Hendrix, Elvis, The Mamas and the Papas, and the Beach Boys are on exhibit at the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum in the heart of downtown Nashville. You'll see the exact instruments each musician used to record the very songs that made them iconic legends.

You'll have an unforgettable time aboard the General Jackson Showboat, the world's grandest showboat. You'll cruise the scenic Cumberland River while enjoying a seated dinner and stage shows like the hilarious duo from Steve Hall & the Shotgun Roadshow performing their animated and entertaining show that'll have you acting up with them.
