About this map

Tamassee and the Chattooga River corridor define this corner of Oconee County, where the landscape transitions into a network of ridges and mountain peaks. The presence of the Walhalla Fish Hatchery and Piedmont State Nursery highlights the region's managed natural resources, while the Long Mountain Lookout Tower stands as a sentinel over the surrounding terrain. To the south and east, the settlement of Cheohee and the Keith Quarter are central to a rural network of roads like Cheohee Valley Rd and Tamassee Knob Rd.

Family history is preserved across numerous burial grounds including Wolf Pit Cemetery, Green Cemetery, and Winchester Cemetery. Natural landmarks such as Spoonauger Falls and Hidden Falls are documented alongside established recreational spots like Burrells Ford Campground and the Rose Bud Picnic Area. The water systems are complex, featuring Lake Cheohee and several named mountain gaps and knobs such as White Rock Knob and Buck Knob.
