Dolly Parton unleashes her charm on Tennessee's roadside with the opening of Dolly's Tennessean Travel Stop. This stop off I-65 in Cornersville, is celebrated with a grand opening on June 24, offering a general store, a cafe with DLY BBQ, and Dolly’s Cup of Ambition Coffee.
A mural, a tour bus replica for photo ops, and a stage await, alongside a "Doggy Parton Dog Park," an outdoor patio, EV charging stations, and trucker facilities. Originated from a partnership with Danny Nozell and Gregory H. Sachs, this marks the first of several planned locations, expanding Parton's entrepreneurial endeavors.
