Amazing weather and waterfront fun in Magnolia

Athletes can use the softball fields, batting cages and YMCA that Caswell Park has to offer. There’s also a large playground in the park. Cal Johnson Park is another place athletes can go to play basketball. While there’s not much green space in the area, Harriet Tubman Park offers residents a half-mile loop for walking and a grassy area to walk pets or relax in the sun. “The weather is perfect,” says Castillo. “You’ll feel all four seasons and actually enjoy them.” Golfers visit William Creek Golf Course for healthy competition on the 18-hole golf course. In the warmer months, people head to the Tennessee River for canoeing, kayaking and to hop on the Knoxville Cycleboats.
