Get CenturyLink in Tazewell

It might seem odd to compare a small Tennessee town to a mythical bird with healing powers—but as Tazewell was literally built on the ashes of the former town, beating the odds to become a thriving city with an ever-expanding population, there isn't a creature better than the phoenix (think noble Fawkes from the Harry Potter series) to describe Tazewell.

It's easy to see evidence of Tazewell's rise and perseverance on every street corner. Once you've moved into your new home, check out the Graham-Kivett house, Tazewell's oldest—and one of the only structures to survive the fire that wiped out the rest of the town in the mid-1800s. (Get involved in the community by donating to restore the house's restoration.) Hike the Point Lookout Loop Trail at Panther Creek State Park to glimpse Tennessee mockingbirds and bobwhites for yourself. And visit local hotspots like Frostee Freeze (the pizza burger will stun you in the best way possible) to get an authentic taste of Tazewell.

When you're not out delighting in Tazewell's perks and quirks, stay indoors for a cozy evening with CenturyLink. If you're taking classes at the Walters State Community College satellite campus, speeds up to 20 Mbps let you study without slowdowns and submit homework on time. And if the reference in the first paragraph soared past you, use CenturyLink satellite TV to stream Harry Potter so you can draw the Tazewell comparisons for yourself.
