About Abrams
Abrams sits in southern Blount County, about 10 miles south of Maryville along routes that lead toward the Great Smoky Mountains National Park boundary. The area takes its name from Abrams Creek, which flows through the surrounding hills and hollows. Nearby Montvale Springs and Happy Valley mark the rolling terrain in this part of the county, while Look Rock and its Foothills Parkway overlook sit a short drive to the northeast. Homes here are spread along country roads rather than clustered in a platted subdivision. Maryville remains the closest full-service town for shopping, dining and other errands, while Townsend and Walland offer additional access points into the national park.
Living in Abrams
