Telliquah is a riverside community on the banks of the Tellico River in the mountains of East Tennessee. Surrounded by the Cherokee National Forest, Telliquah offers fantastic fly fishing: hiking, biking, picnicking, trail-riding, kayaking, birding and more. This outdoor paradise is only an hour from Chattanooga or Knoxville and three hours from Nashville or Atlanta.

The legendary Tellico River, rated one of the top fly-fishing trout streams in America, runs right through Telliquah. Rarely will you find a premium riverside retreat in such close proximity to great fly fishing... steps from the Tellico, and only minutes from the North River, Bald River and other exceptional wild-trout tributaries. Live on the border of the 640,000 acre Cherokee National Forest, with hundreds of miles of trout fishing waters nearby. A 20-minute drive transports you to a totally different fishing experience, Tennessee’s most scenic tailwater, the Hiwassee River – another top rated fly fishing river where drift boat fishing is extraordinary. And within an hour you can fish in the Smokie Mountains, the waters of the Nantahala National Forest, and the trout streams of North Georgia. There’s ready access to guided fly fishing trips, beginner lessons, equipment, and local fishing information at our on-site Telliquah Outfitters. It’s an outdoor lover’s paradise.

Telliquah is located in Tellico Plains, a small rural community in East Tennessee. Turn back the hands of time and enjoy a simpler pace of life, while savoring such treats as freshly baked breads from the local bakery's wood-fired brick oven, local artists' galleries of fine arts and crafts, and a candlelight Christmas walk for the tree lighting in Town Square. The beauty of rolling hillside farms, weathered barns and lazily grazing cattle await your discovery.
