About Linden

Linden is a quiet town of about a thousand residents, tucked into the scenic hills of Perry County along the banks of the Buffalo River. Located about an hour and a half west of Nashville, it offers a relaxed, rural pace of life centered around a historic courthouse square. The surrounding area is full of green river valleys and winding country roads, with both the Buffalo and Tennessee Rivers right in Linden's backyard.

Main Street has plenty of small-town character, featuring local shops, neighborhood eateries, and the historic Commodore Hotel. Community events keep the square lively throughout the year, including the annual Blooming Arts Festival, outdoor summer concerts during Music on Main, and local fall celebrations. Between easy river access for paddling and fishing and hiking trails at nearby Mousetail Landing State Park, Linden is an easygoing home base for anyone who loves the outdoors.
