Tellico Village, nestled in the lush greenery of Eastern Tennessee, was envisioned and created in the mid-1980s by the Cooper Communities. It was designed to be an active and inclusive community, offering an idyllic lifestyle for residents who value tranquility, beauty, and recreation. Sitting on a parcel of over 5,000 acres of land, the Village is surrounded by natural beauty, including the majestic Smoky Mountains and the captivating Tellico Lake. Over the years, it has grown into a thriving community, with over 7,000 residents calling it home. With its golf courses, recreational facilities, and serene lakeside views, Tellico Village remains a testament to well-planned community living, attracting new residents every year who are drawn to its peaceful ambiance and inviting lifestyle.

Tellico Village grew rapidly, thanks to its strategic lakeside location and accessibility to nearby cities like Knoxville. The promise of an active lifestyle attracted many residents. Recreational facilities blossomed. Golf courses, yacht clubs, wellness centers, and a myriad of other amenities ensured that residents had a plethora of activities to engage in. Each neighborhood within the Village, from Kahite to Tanasi, developed its unique charm and character.

What set Tellico Village apart was not just its picturesque setting or the amenities—it was the sense of community. Residents were, and continue to be, actively involved in various clubs, volunteer activities, and community events. From arts and crafts to hiking groups, the Village fostered an environment where friendships thrived and community bonds were solidified.
