The Park at Harlinsdale Farm surrounds the cottage. With its rich history of raising Tennessee Walking Horses, the park includes activities like walking and hiking trails, a canoe and kayak launch, a fishing hole and a dog park. It is the perfect setting for happy hour, picnicking and catching fireflies at Golden Hour.

Scarlett Scales Antiques
121 2nd Ave NOne of our favorite antique shops.
Everything is still made from scratch, the old-fashioned way – you won’t find any premade mixes in this bakery – just bags of flour, whole grains and sugar, flats of eggs and cases of real creamery butter. It takes a lot of loving care to transform these staples into the delicious pies, brownies, cookies and breads you will find on the shelves every day. Merridee’s also features a daily variety of homemade soups, quiches and fresh salads.
