EXPLORE

Here at Green Cove you can fish, hike, explore, or sit and bask in the beauty. This is a "fish camp" where life-long memories are made. You'll soon find why people have been coming here for 30+ years.  It's tradition.  And it's off-the-grid. At Green Cove we want you to rest and experience the Cherokee National Forest. Connect with people.  Connect with nature. Make real memories.   Green Cove Store & Lodge sits in Tennessee's beloved Cherokee National Forest. We are less than 20 miles from Tellico Plains, TN. Like sightseeing? We are situated less than 7 miles from Bald River Falls, a spectacular 90-ft waterfall. Like hiking? We are only 1.3 miles from the Benton MacKaye Trail, a 300 mile trail named in honor of Benton MacKaye, the founder of the Appalachian Trail. Traveling on the Cherohala Skyway? We are just one-turn & 13 miles from the national scenic byway. Is fishing your passion? The Tellico River, nationally recognized as a premiere trout stream, is literally a step off your back deck. We are famous for brook, brown, and rainbow trout. Quite simply: trout rule our crystalline waters.
