Facility Overview

Pegram Park is the central hub for recreation and community activity in the town of Pegram, Tennessee. While the specific address of 502 US-70 is associated with local parcels in the Cheatham County submarket, the primary public parking area serving the community and its events is situated near the intersection of Highway 70 and Thompson Road, adjacent to the iconic Little Red Caboose. This is an open-air, surface-level lot designed to accommodate standard passenger vehicles. The layout is expansive, making it well-suited for family vehicles, SUVs, and standard pickup trucks. As an open-air facility, there are no vertical clearance restrictions, providing excellent accessibility for taller vehicles, including those with roof racks.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

This parking area is the primary access point for Pegram Park, which serves as the heart of local outdoor activity. Visitors to the park can enjoy three ball fields, a batting cage, basketball and tennis courts, and scenic walking tracks. The park is a major venue for local events, including the annual Independence Day Celebration, Christmas in the Park, and youth sports leagues. Its strategic location on US-70 makes it a convenient stop for travelers heading toward Nashville or those looking to explore the natural beauty of the Harpeth River, which features several nearby canoe and kayak outfitters.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

The facility is located directly off Highway 70, providing straightforward ingress and egress for drivers. The entrance to the park and its parking facilities is clearly marked off Thompson Road, ensuring easy navigation for first-time visitors. While Pegram maintains a quiet, small-town atmosphere, the location offers seamless access to the wider Nashville metropolitan area via US-70, which serves as a major artery for commuters and visitors alike. Public transit options in the immediate rural vicinity are limited, so most visitors arrive via personal vehicle.

Visitor & Driver Tips

For those attending large-scale community events like the Independence Day Celebration, we recommend arriving early as parking can fill up quickly during peak hours. Since the facility is a community-managed lot, please be mindful of designated event signage and park only in marked spaces to ensure traffic flow. As this is a popular location for families and children, please drive slowly and be aware of pedestrians crossing near the park entrance and the Little Red Caboose.
