Tucked between the Highland Rim and the Cumberland Plateau, Cookeville is a place whose character is shaped by the rolling uplands of Tennessee’s Upper Cumberland region. Cane Creek runs through the city, while the surrounding woods, farms and limestone streams place it firmly in the state’s interior. Tennessee Tech University gives Cookeville a strong collegiate presence and anchors a community that also grew with the railroad. Downtown’s Cookeville Depot Museum occupies a former railroad depot, preserving that connection in the city center. Cummins Falls State Park, on the Blackburn Fork State Scenic River, lies northwest of town and is a notable regional outdoor destination.
