As you might guess from the name, Sweetwater is a quaint, nostalgic town overflowing with antique shops and sweet Southern charm.
The historic shopping district is the perfect place for an afternoon stroll on your romantic Tennessee day trip.
It's worth making time to explore the surrounding area as well; stop by the state's largest muscadine vineyard for a tour, take a drive along the scenic Cherohala Skyway, and pay a visit to the Lost Sea, where you'll find a massive underground lake and a historic 18th century village.
