I have a family cabin in Tellico on Riddle Hill. I've grown up spending my summers there and springs also. The people there are like nowhere else. Their hospitality is second to none.I will tell anyone to go fishing and camping there. It's great.

Why I love the place!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/21/09
I have many memories of Green Cove, My husband and I have been going to the most beautiful river in Tennessee for 30 years. My son has grown up fishing that river for trout. He's is almost as good as the local expert. The local caretakers are more than friends they are family. I can relax along the river by the campfire and read. There are no ...

Why I go back.......
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/21/09
Ive been visiting Green Cove since 1979. I've been going back for thirty years because it hasnt changed. Sure it's no five star resort but when my wife and I need a place to get away and just relax, do a little fishing or sit by the fire, there is no better place. Over the years I've gotten to know the folks that own and run the place ...

Eww

Just a word to start....Roaches. Lots of them, used furniture in poor condition. Dust and mold that would grow be better seen under the microscope. Our blankets actually had dog hairs on them. Will not go back, will drive up and stay in town .

Best kept secret in Tennessee
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/20/08
I have been going to the Green Cove for close to 25 years. It is the best place to go if you want to be in the wilderness and not camp out. Others have said it is not a 5 star hotel and they are correct, but I have no interest in staying somewhere with 5 star hotel types, if you know what I mean. Wonderful people run the place, the location is ...

The main thing for me is the nostolga of the many days my family and I have enjoyed on the Tellico River, my wife, my daughter and grandsons, fishing, relaxing. recounting previous trips. We stay in the same two rooms at the Green Cove Motel, not a fancy place by any measure, but if you view the picture I posted you will see the deck is almost out ...

Enjoyed our stay
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/16/08
The drive up to Green Cove is spectacular! We loved the view. It had a deck out the back door right over the river. It was peaceful, beautiful and quiet. Friendly service. $50 per night. Not for prissy, picky people however. These rooms are mainly used by trout fisherman who don't mind a little dust. Our room had NO BUGS, but the floor ...

Best Kept Secret
By salmonplug, 03/25/08
I have been going to the Green Cove Motel for well over a decade. Coming from Cincinnati, it is the closest fly fishing mecca I know of---that holds that true, one of a kind draw. True, the accomodations are not 5 star by a long shot, BUT the management and the ambience is like nothing you will ever find, bar none. It is a GREAT value for the money and the location can not be beat. RLP

Repeat Guest - Love It!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/30/07
As others have commented this place is not a 5 star resort by any means, but I keep going back. It is so peaceful and beautiful and I like to go there when I just want to get away. It's a great place for relaxing and destressing while surrounded by nature and free from technology. My friends and I call it "camping for girls" ...

Great Place!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/11/07
Just be sure to take plenty of food, ice, etc. Two reasons: 1. The store there is very expensive, and 2. It's a long way back to town.
Be sure and take along a radio and/or personal DVD player, as there is no entertainment in the room when you are not fishing.
If you are looking for a place to really get away from it all, this is most definitely the place to go.
