2016 Map of Stony Point

About this map

The Holston River winds through the heart of this East Tennessee landscape, creating a series of deep bends and islands such as Phipps Bend and Christian Islands. The river's path defines the settlement patterns of Hawkins County, where historic communities like Surgoinsville and Stony Point established themselves along the northern banks. Further south, the terrain rises sharply into the ridgelines of Bays Mountain, a dominant geographic feature that separates the river valley from the more isolated hollows and gaps of the backcountry.
