Tellico Village
Whether you’re looking for a front-row seat to the Great Smoky Mountains or a backyard that opens onto 16,000 acres of pristine water, Tellico Village is where your "permanent vacation" begins. Established in 1986 and nestled along the shores of the crystal-clear Tellico Lake, this premier active-adult community offers a lifestyle that is as energetic as it is relaxing.
Life on the Water
With over 373 miles of shoreline, the lake is the heart of the Village. Whether you're a seasoned sailor or a casual kayaker, you’ll have access to five private marinas and the prestigious Tellico Yacht & Country Club. From morning fishing trips to sunset dinner cruises at the Blue Heron Restaurant, the water is always calling.
A Golfer’s Triple Threat
Why play one course when you can have three? Tellico Village boasts three championship golf courses—Toqua, Tanasi, and The Links at Kahite. Each offers a unique challenge with rolling hills, lakefront fairways, and professional-grade clubhouses. Best of all, the "pay-as-you-go" system means you only pay for the golf you actually play!
The Pickleball Capital of the South
If you haven't caught "pickleball fever" yet, you will here! The Village features a massive, dedicated pickleball complex with over 10 courts (including covered play for rainy days). With one of the largest clubs in the region, there’s always a game waiting for you, whether you’re a beginner or a tournament pro.
Wellness & Recreation
Stay active at the state-of-the-art 26,000-square-foot Wellness Center or the Chota Recreation Center. Between the two, you’ll find:
* Indoor & Outdoor Pools: For year-round laps or seasonal lounging.
* Fitness Studios: Offering everything from yoga to high-intensity aerobics.
* Tennis & Racquetball: High-quality courts for every racquet sport enthusiast.
* Miles of Trails: Scenic walking and hiking paths that wind through lush woodlands and along the lake.
A Community Where Friends Become Family
Beyond the amenities, it’s the people that make Tellico Village special. With over 200 social clubs, you can join a woodworking guild, a wine-tasting group, or a hiking club on Monday and be part of a neighborhood potluck by Friday.
