Why this matters in The Nashville
The sale of Nashville Shores to EPR Parks Nashville for over $12 million marks a significant change in ownership for one of the city's most popular summer attractions. As a major waterpark in the area, Nashville Shores has been a staple for local families and tourists alike since its opening in 1998. The fact that EPR Properties already has a presence in the Nashville area, with ownership of the Margaritaville Hotel and TopGolf, among other properties, suggests that the company is committed to investing in the local entertainment and leisure industry. It will be worth watching to see how this change in ownership affects the waterpark's operations and whether any new developments or improvements are planned for the site along Percy Priest Lake. With its extensive portfolio of properties across the country, EPR Properties may bring new resources and expertise to the table, potentially enhancing the overall experience for visitors to Nashville Shores.
