How to get around in Forest Hills

Unlike several other neighborhoods near Nashville, the Nashville MTA bus service does not make any stops in Forest Hills. Since no other public transportation is available, other than the typical Lyft and Uber services, potential residents should be fully prepared to utilize their personal vehicle to commute to downtown and the surrounding areas.

Parks and Recreation in Forest Hills

Residents love living in Forest Hills because of its easy access to Radnor Lake State Park and Percy Warner Park.

Warner Park Nature Center and Barbara J. Mapp Aviary Education Center each provides additional resources for outdoor enthusiasts to immerse themselves in nature.

Additionally, Bison Meadow is a 2½ acre park, a peaceful area that is popular with locals as a haven to unwind. This beautiful meadow is intended to be a preservation of Tennessee's grasslands.

Tyne Blvd, Forest Hills, TN 37215

“Forest Hills is between Brentwood and Belle Meade”

Forest Hills is between Brentwood and Belle Meade. It’s a great place if you are looking for a large house, big yard, and mature trees. I love that it is so close to Radnor Lake. Radnor is breathtaking in the fall and spring. It’s an expensive neighborhood. But it does offer upscale suburban living in Nashville. So that can’t be beaten.
