The Area
Marion County was established in 1817 from lands acquired from the Cherokee. Across the county you can see the beautiful mountains, picturesque Nickajack Lake, the Tennessee River Gorge which runs for miles along Hwy 41 and some of the most interesting old bridges in the south. But when you have had enough driving, fishing, skiing, caving, birding, four wheeling, camping, bouldering and hiking you may want to look a little deeper for some other "finer things of life" the area has to offer.
