How to Use This Cumberland, Tennessee Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cumberland, 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 Cumberland.

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.

Cumberland defines the rugged character of its immediate surroundings, where the Coon Hollow Branch carves a quiet, persistent path through the earth. It lies 3.4 miles south of Crossville, TN (from Crossville, TN: bearing 177°T), and is situated 2.5 miles northeast of Lake Tansi. The landscape here is defined by the deep, verdant basin of Coon Hollow, which gathers the shadows of late afternoon and holds them close to the soil. To the north, the distant silhouettes of the Cumberland Mountains rise against the horizon like jagged teeth, reminding those who live here of the vast, ancient geology that shaped this interior plateau. The air in Cumberland carries the scent of damp earth and cooling limestone, particularly near the tranquil waters of Mohawk Lake, where the surface remains glass-smooth in the waning light of dusk.

Cumberland emerged from the hard necessity of frontier life, growing slowly as settlers pushed into the interior to harness the resources of the rugged Tennessee landscape. Early inhabitants recognized the utility of the local waterways, building modest structures that mirrored the austerity of the surrounding woodlands. The history of Cumberland is one of endurance, marked by the gradual transition from isolated clearings to a more permanent, organized settlement. Over generations, the people of Cumberland transformed these raw, wooded tracts into a place of quiet permanence, leaving behind the remnants of old stone foundations that still whisper of the labor required to tame the wilderness.

Economic life in Cumberland relies heavily on the steady rhythms of local industry and the stewardship of the surrounding terrain. While the town maintains a modest infrastructure, it benefits from its proximity to Cumberland Mountain, a state park that draws visitors seeking the stillness of protected wilderness rather than the clamor of urban sprawl. Students and researchers occasionally venture from regional institutions to study the ecological diversity found within the nearby Bledsoe State Forest, contributing a modest intellectual vitality to the local economy. Cumberland serves as a hub for those who work the land and manage the resources of the plateau, ensuring that the infrastructure remains functional if understated, designed for utility rather than spectacle.

Culture in Cumberland reflects a deep appreciation for the natural world and the uncomplicated pace of life that defines the inland plateau. Residents often gather during seasonal transitions to celebrate the regional harvest, finding common ground in local traditions that predate the modern rush of the digital age. While Cumberland does not house massive professional stadiums, the spirit of competition is found in the fervor for regional college athletics that echo through the valley on autumn weekends. The quiet beauty of the landscape remains the primary landmark, an enduring presence that informs the character of everyone who calls Cumberland their home, grounding their daily lives in the slow, inevitable turning of the seasons.
