CITY of BANEBERRY
Nestled in the scenic foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains in beautiful East Tennessee is our quiet and friendly resort-style community—Baneberry.
Residents and visitors here enjoy an easy drive to the nearby cities of Knoxville, Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge, Dandridge, and Morristown. If you’re willing to drive a little further, Asheville, North Carolina, Kentucky Bourbon Trail, and a plethora of historical landmarks welcome you.
Touted as the safest city in Jefferson County, our residents relax in a rural setting but benefit from metropolitan-style shopping, service amenities, educational institutions, and recreational areas.
Whether employed or retired, Baneberry is a great place to visit—and we believe the very best place to live. Join us!
“Friendly, relaxing, fun, and safe.”

“We still have over 50 separate incidents causing these outages (many broken poles) and crews are working as quickly as possible to get power restored. We will continue to update as we have new information,” AEC posted at approximately 7:45 pm, Thursday after the tornado warning, “The weather has not been very cooperative tonight, but the crews continue to work to get power restored.”
