Ten Mile is an unincorporated community in northern Meigs and southeastern Roane counties in the U.S. state of Tennessee.
[1] Ten Mile is primarily a summer cottage community on Watts Bar Lake.
It includes summer cottages, small locally owned stores and restaurants, a bank, marinas, resorts, churches, and a post office (ZIP code 37880).
Although there are no definitive archives to specifically document who named the stream Ten Mile Creek or why, based on early maps of the area, the best educated guess is that the length of the creek measures approximately 10 miles.
The Elisha Sharp House was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 6, 1982.
