Gaylord Opryland is a treasured place in Nashville! Our family has made some wonderful memories at Opryland over the years. You don’t realize how fast your kids are growing until you see pictures from summers before at the same places. It’s easy to see how fast Owen has grown now that he is much taller than me! We celebrated the end of 7th grade with our friends for a Mother/Son Weekend at Opryland and Soundwaves!
While I miss the little years, I am soaking in the here and now days. This teenager of mine is pretty fun too! We had a blast sliding down the racers, tubes and floating in the lazy river. I know these are days I will always remember with him!
He may insist on wearing socks to a water resort but seeing how much fun he had at Soundwaves was worth it! Here are a few favorites at Summer at Opryland:
Tasty frozen drinks by the wave pool
I love being able to grab lunch or dinner at Decibels (inside of Soundwaves) Their berry salad (topped with coconut shrimp) is delicious!
There’s beauty around every corner inside the resort and out
We closed down Soundwaves. It’s so peaceful in the evenings! Watching the music videos on the big screen is the best, Soundwaves has an awesome playlist!
There is truly something for everyone! If you want to take it easy and lounge or be adventurous on the Flow Rider or dash down the slides!
Walking through the Atrium never gets old. The beautiful plants and waterfalls make you forget that you’re in the middle of a hotel.
Opryland is hosting a Summer of More with thrills and chills at the water resort, scavenger hunts around the property, relaxation at Relache Spa, dining opportunities, family friendly activities and so much more!
We are truly fortunate to have such an amazing place in the heart of Nashville! You can experience a wonderful staycation/vacation all in one spot!
