Bell's Bend is the last loop the Cumberland River makes in western Davidson 
County (Metro Nashville) before it makes its way into Cheatham County to the 
northwest.  You get down into Bell's Bend by taking a left on Old Hickory 
Boulevard off of Hwy 12 when proceeding from the Bordeaux area of Nashville to 
Ashland City, TN.  A small community called Scottsboro is on the OLD Hwy 12 
where 
it crosses Old Hickory as it runs parallel to the "new and improved" (that 
means four laned) Hwy. 12.

We used to get across on the old Cleece's Ferry, but the Metro Nashville 
Council killed the ferry several years ago which, for me, turned a 1 mile or 
less 
trip into about 15 miles or more.  How I wish they'd bring our ferry 
back...even if they charged for it which they didn't before.
