Martin and Weakley County have many fascinating antique shops, in which to find that special treasure.  Martin is home to the University of Tennessee at Martin, which sponsors a variety of special events all year.  Visit in September and "Pig Out in the Park" during the Tennessee Soybean Festival.  Schedule a vacation in May and soak in the beauty of Tennessee's state flower, the iris, during Dresden's Iris Festival.

Several unique resort areas are within a 1 hour drive of University Lodge.  Historic Reelfoot Lake features American Bald Eagle tours, fabulous fishing, and relaxing scenery with over 15,000 acres of water.  The Land Between the Lakes has an authentic recreation of log cabin life and beautiful wildlife.  Paris Landing and Kentucky Lake features gorgeous scenery, marinas and a wide variety of things to do.
