The picturesque Elm Hill Marina will definitely take your breath away. Situated along the grand J. Percy Priest Lake, this is the perfect hang-out spot by the water. However, if you want to take your adventure offshore, rent a boat to explore the lake. Rentals range from pontoons to bass boats, readily available in various sizes. 14-feet (4.2-meter) fishing boats are also available during the weekdays. For convenience, make reservations two to four weeks before you need the boat since they are in high demand. Shipwreck Cove Restaurant, which is located on the marina, serves delicious food and ice-cold refreshments. The restaurant is open all year round.

2. Party with friends aboard a private pontoon
This is the most suitable way to enjoy private group parties. Booking for this captained pontoon comes with pick-up and drop-off services from the hotel or vacation rental. The caveat though is that the location needs to be within a maximum distance of 15 miles (24 kilometers) from Downtown Nashville. Water sports can be added on as long as you request before the day of the party. You will have to bring your own food, beverages, towels and other items necessary for the trip. Be sure to book in advance to ensure the pontoon’s availability.
