Deerwood.jpgDeerwood Arboretum and Nature Center is a fun (and free!) place to spend a few hours taking in the scenery, enjoying a short hike, or sitting by the river for a picnic.

You can get to the park by turning into the Belle Rive Subdivision on Granny White Pike.

Stay on Belle Rive road until you see the signs for the park directing you to Deerwood Lane.

Some interesting facts about the park: 

  • The park offers 27 acres to explore, with 1/2 mile bordering the Little Harpeth River.
  • The park was offically open in 1992, after being converted from a wastewater treatment facility in the late 1980s.
  • There is a Tree Identification Guide available in the parking lot of the park — to take with you through the trail.
  • It was certified as an arboretum in 2002.
  • There are 2 acres of man-made lakes.

In 2001, a small amphitheater and outdoor classroom were built. So this is also an ideal destination for nature groups or schools.

For reservation information, contact the parks office at (615) 371-2208.

About Us

LynnetteWe moved from Florida to Tennessee in 2001. All signs point to the fact that we will probably retire here -- by choice. We L O V E Nashville! Our favorite places to live are just south of Music City -- we've had houses in Brentwood, Franklin, and Spring Hill. (And we have properties in Leipers Fork, Cookeville, and Lewisburg.) This is where I share my best tips for moving your family to Brentwood, Tennessee. When I'm not out & about enjoying the Nashville area, you will find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites).
