    Default Nashville surrounding lakes

    I’m looking at purchasing a home in the Nashville surrounding areas. I’m pretty familiar with the areas of Belle Meade/Brentwood/Franklin/Spring Hill.
    However, they are pretty far from the larger bodies of water.
    Ideally I’d like to be within 30min of a nice lake, and 45min of BNA Nashville airport.

    Anyone have any recommendations? Percy priest seems to be the big lake.

    Check out the Hendersonville and Gallatin areas north of Nashville. Near Old Hickory Lake. Not a far drive from Dale Hollow or Center Hill also.

    With those parameters, you should take Priest, Old Hickory, and possibly Cordell Hull (smaller) as your lakes. Center Hill is huge but will take you a bit further out away from Nashville if you truly want to be 30 minutes from lake. Since BNA is on I-40 east, you can probably still meet your requirements for Center Hill living in Wilson, Smith, or Dekalb counties.

    I live in White House, TN. We are 25min from Old Hickory. We put in at Flippers, Bledsoe, or Douglas Bend. There are several gas stations and Publix between us and the lake and makes stopping pre/post trip easy. The White House, Hendersonville, Gallatin, Mount Juliet area would serve your purpose.

    Get a realtor and have the homes lined up based on what your interests are.

    ^^ Truth ^^ You might not have time to look at these lakes, but if you lived closer to the city/burbs area, these lakes are WELL worth the drive and trailer your boat for weekend trips: Dale Hollow and Center Hill.

    We had a Skiers get-together event there years ago on Dale Hollow.

    I’ve never really been the biggest fan of realtors. Every purchase I’ve made it’s seemed to work out better when we do the scouting ourselves.
    I just the locals/guys here to get me in a better area than the realtors anyway lol

    But, just to cover my bases, does anyone have a realtor to recommend?

    I mean I’m familiar with the area, but I’m not from out there. My locations are based on the criteria I need, that’s what the realtor is for no?
