Explore Coker Creek, Tennessee, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Coker Creek, Tennessee. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Tennessee or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Coker Creek.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Coker Creek occupies a rugged stretch of land where the persistent flow of Conasauga Creek carves a path through the dense, verdant expanse of the Cherokee National Forest. It lies 21.2 miles southeast of Athens, TN (from Athens, TN: bearing 125°T), and is situated 18.1 miles south-southeast of Madisonville. The air here holds a cool, damp weight, carrying the scent of pine needles and damp earth that clings to the base of the surrounding slopes. While the distant Great Smoky Mountains provide a jagged, blue-tinted silhouette against the horizon, the immediate landscape is defined by the intimate, broken terrain of Tillery Flat and the quiet stillness of nearby Unicoi Lake. Sunlight filters through the canopy in thin, sharp shafts, illuminating the moss-covered stones and the clear, cold water that characterizes this corner of the woods. Those who wander the Doc Rogers Trail find a terrain that demands a steady gait, where the elevation shifts with the deliberate, slow rhythm of the ancient earth itself.
Gold fever once pulled prospectors to the banks of Coker Creek, leaving behind a legacy of abandoned diggings and a quiet, lingering fascination with the mineral wealth buried beneath the soil. Today, the economy has shifted away from the frantic search for ore, favoring the steady, quiet stewardship of the forest and the seasonal visits of those drawn to the nearby, thunderous descent of Bald River Falls. The character of the place is forged in this transition, moving from the labor-intensive extraction of the past to a present defined by the slow, natural cycles of the surrounding woodland. Life in Coker Creek follows the patient tempo of the seasons, where the primary concerns are the maintenance of the land and the preservation of the solitude found in the deep green shadows of the trees. It is a place where the history of industry has faded into the landscape, replaced by the persistent, unhurried growth of a forest that long ago reclaimed the scars of its former human occupants.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
