Lake Tansi, Crossville TN, Our Family Weekend Get-Away on the Water !

One of the greatest things about living in Crossville-Cumberland County Tennessee is the water. Water just seems to bring that easy, peaceful feeling. Coupled with mountains you can create your very own oasis right here in Crossville TN.

This year we had several family members come here to Crossville Tennessee to enjoy the wide open spaces, crystal clear waters and yes the many views of the mountains. It was wonderful seeing family we hadn't seen in a few years, catching up on old times and telling all those stories of when we were " kids".

We spent most of our time laying on the beach, taking our boat for a spin around Lake Tansi and enjoyed roasting marshmallows in the evening. The best part was watching all the children play on the playground in Lake Tansi or jumping off the dock into the water on the beach ! My little guy has no fear and tired out all of us adults long before he ever tired.

Memories....they are made here in Crossville Tennessee. They are made from your back yard to Lake Tansi Village in Crossville TN. Did you know as you travel along Lake Tansi Village you are surrounded by several lakes and golf courses ? No matter where you go in Lake Tansi there is something for everyone.

Lake Tansi has Shopping, Churches, Beautiful Lakes, Full Service Marina, Golf, Indoor and Outdoor Swimming Pools, Tennis Courts and so much more. You can purchase a lot to build your dream home or purchase your dream home. From waterfront, to water view, from golf course living to privacy and seclusion, Lake Tansi has left no stone uncovered and has left no-one out !

So whether you are retiring to Tennessee, Relocating or Upgrading, consider Lake Tansi Village where there is fun for all ages !
