An upscale mountain lifestyle being discovered in Cagle-Fredonia
The plateaus of Cagle Mountain and Fredonia Mountain sit side by side, with roads running up the slopes from the town of Dunlap to the community of Cagle-Fredonia. The quaint, rural character of the area has always attracted residents wanting a little more peace and privacy. But as newer gated communities and clubs grow, Cagle-Fredonia increasingly offers an upscale mountain lifestyle. “It’s being discovered,” says George Hamilton, the owner of George Hamilton Real Estate and Management Company and a lifelong resident of Sequatchie County. “It used to be a mountainous area with lots of woodlands and few people, but now we have homes being built and a lot of new people moving in. But it’s still got some character to it of a rural area.”

Private and leased hunting land within the community
Several recreation areas are located around Cagle-Fredonia, including the Savage Gulf State Park. The park includes hiking and camping through 19,000 acres of Appalachia, with waterfalls and rock formations to view. However, within the community itself, much of the outdoor land is private, with areas like the Dunaway Hunting and Fishing Club open only to members. “There’s not as much public land as there used to be up there,” Hamilton says. “But there’s still some hunting and fishing going on up there. People are leasing it out rather than opening it up to the public.”
