Cherokee Village is a private community nestled at the foothills of the Ozark Mountains in Northeast Arkansas. This beautiful location was originally developed as a vacation and retirement resort community by John A. Cooper in 1954, complete with all of the amenities--lakes, golf, boating, tennis, and pools just to name a few. Today Cherokee Village is a growing city consisting of folks of all ages. Bring your family for a vacation...you might very well wind up staying for a lifetime!
This unique town actually has 2 governing entities: The City of Cherokee Village & the Cherokee Village Suburban Improvement District (CVSID).
