• If casting a line is your favorite way to relax, Fort Patrick Henry Lake is calling. A hot spot for local fishermen, the lake is loaded with bass, trout, catfish, crappie, and hybrid striped bass.
• Kingsport is home to several top-level golf courses. Topping the list is Cattails at MeadowView, considered one of the top public golf courses in Tennessee. Warriors’ Path State Park Golf Course also features an excellent 18-hole course, located on the Fort Patrick Henry Lake’s shores, while Crockett Ridge Golf Course and Ridgefields Golf Club have great layouts and are perfect for golfers of all skill levels.
• Going for a walk is always a great way to get a bit of exercise and enjoy the beautiful weather.
