About Charleston

Set right along the south bank of the Hiwassee River, Charleston offers quiet, small-town living in Bradley County just north of Cleveland. The community has deep historic roots as an early river crossing and Cherokee Agency site, both preserved at the Hiwassee River Heritage Center. These days, it is a calm and welcoming place to settle down, with easy river access and fun community traditions like the annual International Cowpea Festival, which brings neighbors together for good food, live music, and a lively cook-off.
