Copperhill, TN

Copperhill sits in the mountains of southeastern Tennessee, directly on the Georgia state line. The town grew during the 19th-century copper boom alongside its sister city, McCaysville, Georgia. Those historic mining operations have long since closed, but Copperhill has held onto its heritage while settling into a quiet, easygoing mountain community.

Daily life here revolves around the outdoors and a friendly, small-town atmosphere. The river running through town becomes the famous Ocoee downstream, putting whitewater rafting, fly fishing, and kayaking minutes from your front door. The surrounding Cherokee National Forest provides endless hiking trails and mountain scenery. Between local eateries, downtown shops you can easily walk between, and community festivals shared across the state line, Copperhill offers a peaceful place to put down roots.
