This region of natural Tennessee beauty is known predominately for Tims Ford State Park and one of the South’s top recreational lakes, Tims Ford Lake. A premier outdoor hub, Tims Ford is also a destination for small town exploration, one-of-a-kind culinary experiences, and eclectic retail hot-spots.
Located off of Highway 64 lies the town of Winchester, Franklin County’s seat. Known for its bustling downtown district and proximity to the lake, Winchester has the perfect small-town vibe while also giving visitors the amenities of a bigger city. Start the day with coffee in Walnut Hill Coffee Co, then take a stroll around the square and explore antiques at Oakes & Oliver’s or gifts and lake-themed souvenirs at Meshed. Spend the afternoon hiking one of the many trails at Tims Ford State Park, or take in the sunset on a boat tour of Tims Ford Lake. End the night with a game of air hockey and a pint at the retro-style Good Game Arcade or craft cocktails at Filo’s Tavern.
