Tampa

Head down to Tampa, Florida to experience some sunshine along Florida’s Gulf Coast. Enjoy miles of waterfront and experience the authentic culture and cuisine that Tampa is known for.

Atlanta

Atlanta is home to the Braves, the Falcons, the world-class Georgia Aquarium, and many other reputable people and places as Georgia’s largest city. It’s also the birthplace of Coca-Cola, so there is nowhere better suited to enjoy an ice-cold Coke than ATL. ATL is a quick trip for Nashvillians as it is only a three-hour drive south, but it is also home to the busiest airport in the United States if you don’t feel like driving. Enjoy Ponce City Market for shopping and Freedom Park for fresh air while in Atlanta, both located near Camden Midtown Atlanta.

Denver

Miles above sea level and three hours by flight from Nashville is Denver, Colorado, a destination known for art and the outdoors. Enjoy the Rocky Mountains, crystal blue skies, and crisp snow made for skiing. If the creative side of Denver interests you, check out the RiNo Art District and stop by Camden RiNo for a tour. Denver’s best activities can be found here.

Orlando

Orlando, Florida is the land of theme parks! Between Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando, there is no lack of fun, imagination, or excitement in this city. If the magic makes you want to stay forever, check out Camden World Gateway apartment homes located near the action.

However, if rollercoasters, characters, and sweet treats are not your thing, that does not mean Orlando isn’t! There are things to do in Orlando besides the theme parks! Check out our recommendations here.
