EAST TENNESSEE HIGHLIGHTS
Water in front of you. Mountains beyond it.
East Tennessee is shaped by lakes, wooded ridges, river valleys, and the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains.
Here, boating, fishing, hiking, golf, scenic drives, and changing seasons are part of the setting rather than something reserved for a vacation.
REGIONAL FEATURES
Why East Tennessee Continues to Stand Out
The attraction goes beyond scenery. Tennessee combines outdoor living with financial advantages, destination access, and a quality of life that works for primary homes, retreats, and second-home lifestyles.
01 · FINANCIAL ADVANTAGE
No state income tax on earned income.
Tennessee does not levy a state individual income tax on earned income, giving residents an important financial advantage compared with many other states.
02 · FOUR-SEASON LIFESTYLE
Outdoor living does not stop at the shoreline.
Boating, fishing, hiking, golf, mountain scenery, fall color, and year-round destination towns create a lifestyle with something different in every season.
03 · CONNECTED LIVING
Peaceful does not have to mean isolated.
Knoxville, regional airports, healthcare, dining, shopping, and the communities of the Smokies add convenience to the quiet pace of lake and mountain living.
THE SMOKIES · PIGEON FORGE · GATLINBURG
Some of East Tennessee’s best-known destinations are part of the bigger picture.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park anchors one of the Southeast’s most recognizable mountain regions, while Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge add dining, shopping, entertainment, arts and crafts, and year-round events.
Dollywood adds another signature East Tennessee destination, combining rides, live entertainment, festivals, dining, craftsmanship, and the mountain setting of Pigeon Forge.
