As a major Cumberland River port with three landings, Carthage was strategically important to both Confederate and Union forces. The Upper Ferry and landing was located near the present Corps of Engineer boat ramp near Upper Ferry Road.


Droping over 60 feet from a rock ledge, Northrup Falls of Colditz Cove State Natural Area is one of the most photogenic waterfalls of the Cumberland Plateau. It flows through a scenic narrow gorge along Big Branch Creek amidst some of the largest old growth stands of hemlock and white pines that can be seen in the plateau region.


For those visiting the Cumberland Plateau area, consider a visit to Delia's Guest House. It is conveniently located and a comfortable, attractive lodging alternative. Delia's offers privacy and comfort with three bedrooms and two baths. The house faces Hwy. 127 and is near riding stables, Big South Fork, and Rugby.
