Today I was able to visit the beautiful Reelfoot Lake, nestled in northwest Tennessee. With a rich history and tradition, lake draws tourists every year to experience hunting, fishing, festivals, and eagle spotting. To get the full lake experience, my friends from Reelfoot Lake Tourism Council and Reelfoot Lake State Park took me on an eagle tour around the lake! You are almost guaranteed to spot a number of beautiful birds when exploring the area (We saw 27 on our tour!).

If you have not visited Kenton, Tennessee you are missing out on one of the true hidden gems in northwest (and possibly, all of) Tennessee - White Squirrel Winery! Located on the Sanderson Family Farm, White Squirrel Winery, offers a romantic winery and vineyard, serving a variety of delicious wines, homemade soaps and candles. However, what truly sets this vineyard apart is the warm family atmosphere that envelops you as soon as you walk in the door.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! But for many of us, Christmas looks a lot like panic-buying a bunch of last-minute gifts online for people who deserve much better. Our mothers do not want eucalyptus-scented aromatherapy nasal inhalers, and our fathers probably don’t actually have a whole lot of interest in that 10-piece hot sauce tester set. Sure, Etsy has saved us more times than one, but it’s never worth the stress of waiting, wondering if that order will actually arrive by December 25th! This year, stop the vicious cycle of last-minute panic purchases! Obion County, Tennessee, has great shopping opportunities to help you check off every loved one on your list and give them the gifts they really deserve. Here’s our ultimate guide to holiday shopping for everyone on your nice list:

Union City is a charming town with a quaint downtown area, a variety of good eats, and some seriously great shopping, but one of our most famous (and favorite!) features has to be the “Let it Glow” Lights Show. Families come from miles around to drive through the 30+ miles of over one million spectacular Christmas lights. It’s great for kids, it’s only $10, it’s socially distanced, and—most importantly—it boasts a waterfall made of stunning blue Christmas lights. Be sure to stop by the Obion County Chamber Office to kick off your happy, healthy trip with a free Obion County mask and more resources on fun opportunities.
