Perseid Meteor Shower

I’m new to Nashville and looking for a good place to catch the end of the Perseid meteor shower at the end of the week. I know the peak is Wed/thurs but bc of work can’t stay out late enough to watch until Friday. All the parks praise the city I’ve looked at seem to close at dark or shortly after… there are a few that offer camping spots am an option to o stay past closing - but I’m not trying to camp, need to get home at some point early Sat am. Any suggestions for dark-ish areas, within an hr max of the city, that wouldn’t hassle some informal Star-gazers?

r/Nashville seems like a better place for this but they won’t let me post :/
