where to go in Eastern Tennessee? (Dayton, Rogersville: house, construction, moving)

[dinwiddie6]

35 years in Florida is quite enough! Everything here has changed. Eleven years ago I moved from Pompano to Palatka area (mistake)! I'm now looking at either Arkansas or Tennessee. I like the looks and geographical location of Tennessee. After reading a bunch of stuff on this forum ....I'm not sure about Tennessee. I am surrounded by a town and a lot of it's people who refuse to better themselves. Eastern Tennessee looks beautiful..I'm just wondering about the story of the person who was chased around by a truck full of yahoos...and told to get out...your not a local!! Scares me! Just looking for a house on a waterway with a few acres. I love to fly fish! Does anybody have a special town in mind? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!

My husband and I will be moving next year to the Rogersville area. Bought beautiful piece of property. 2 miles to the Holston River and 6 miles to Cherokee Lake. There are so many rivers and lakes around you would have many choices. BTW We also love to fish, boat, canoe etc good luck!

D; Just moved two months ago. 12 yars of Indian river near space center. Seems you may enjoy DAYTON area North Hawassee river for fly fishing. Can find on web search. Not sure of more than one acre when you get river front property as getting very scarce. Heard TVA only lets 30 % of land get developed on water ??? We are in Sale creek area, very nice, also other Fla, Half-backs, etc. New construction off water, but one acre hill top views $ 135 K. Two miles away on river is $ 2 million re-sale ! Again over one acre on river front is tough find .
