About Choto Mill
Choto Mill is a residential neighborhood in the Choto community of southwest Knox County, Tennessee, set along Choto Road near the Fort Loudoun Lake shoreline. The area sits roughly four miles south of Farragut, five miles north of Friendsville, and six miles west of Louisville, giving it a position between the Tennessee River and the Farragut retail corridor along Kingston Pike. Choto has long been known for its water access and winding, tree-lined roads rather than a dense commercial strip, with daily errands typically handled in Farragut. Nearby neighborhoods include Choto Meadows, Rocky Slope, Bailey Park, Lewisbrooke, Lake Cove, and Preston Park, forming a cluster of residential streets in this part of the county.
Living in Choto Mill
Homes in and around Choto Mill tend to be single-family houses on wooded or gently sloped lots, with some properties backing up to or within view of Fort Loudoun Lake. Street layouts favor curving residential roads off Choto Road rather than a grid, and many lots carry mature trees typical of this lakeside stretch of Knox County. Farragut, about four miles north, handles most day-to-day shopping and dining along Kingston Pike and Parkside Drive.
