Marion County, Tennessee
Marion County hugs the Tennessee-Alabama-Georgia border in the southeastern part of the state. The Tennessee River cuts right through it so it makes for some killer views.
Jasper is the county seat. It’s a small town, but it has everything you need. Visitors enjoy coming here. The Sequatchie Valley is a sight to behold. It’s definitely green and lush here.
Nickajack Cave is a haven for endangered gray bats. The county has some quirky claims to fame. Like the Cornbread Festival in South Pittsburg. Yep, a whole festival for cornbread. Only in Tennessee, right?
