Nestled within the pristine pines of East Texas lies the quaint historical town of Rusk, the county seat of Cherokee County. This Texas Main Street City is renowned for its Southern hospitality and generous offering of tourism tantalizers, including bragging rights to 32 historical markers and a regalia of recreation ranging from race cars to rail cars.

The town’s unspoiled landscape and relaxed pace can no doubt be attributed to its delicate blend of old and new, nostalgia and innovation, architecture and nature.

If you require a respite from life’s stresses, yearn for a living history lesson, or seek a simpler, more congenial lifestyle, Rusk awaits you.
