During the Civil War, Knoxville's Mabry-Hazen House served as headquarters for both the Confederate and Union armies. Today you can visit the house and other historic homes in this eastern Tennessee city. Among Knoxville's other attractions are museums, a zoo and World's Fair Park, site of the 1982 World's Fair. University of Tennessee sports draw lots of fans, as does the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame. To see Knoxville from the water, take a leisurely riverboat ride down the Tennessee River.

We have been East Tennessee's fun, family-friendly destination for ice skating, hockey, curling, and more since 1962!
In December, this is the place to see the Nutcracker on Ice. Tickets are very reasonable and it is a quality presentation. Skating for fun and recreation is available during regular business hours. A very friendly staff and skates in all sizes are available for rent.
