Before or after touring the prison, the new
Brushy Mountain experience offers southern
cooking with a twist at The Warden’s Table
restaurant. Serving everything from classic
BBQ plates to cheeseburgers to nachos.
There is plenty of food selections and room
for families or large groups. With your
tummy full from the cafeteria style dining
at The Warden’s Table, it is the End of Line
that you will find downright enjoyable.
The End of the Line moonshine is distilled
and bottled on the grounds of the former
maximum-security prison. From farm to
still, they use local grains and water from
the mountains’ natural springs. This is true
Tennessee Moonshine.
Best of all is the ability to take a piece of this
historical relic home, the gift shop has a
variety of items from t-shirts to mugs to key
rings and much more. There is a souvenir or
gift for any age and the gift shop is also the
place to pick up a bottle of End of the Line
moonshine. In addition, Brushy Mountain
is an unforgettable place to hold an event
or party. They are hosting concerts, festivals
and even weddings in and on the grounds of
the infamous prison.
This unforgettable, infamous prison
of history is now a place to make new
memories. Those new memories can include a
very personal experience at Brushy Mountain.
The prison is considered an extremely
haunted location by paranormal investigators.
Phantom footsteps, apparitions, disembodied
voices have been reported and tours are
now available for anyone daring to encounter
Brushy Mountain after dark.
Developed by The Brushy Mountain Group,
the historical relic is re-establishing the
economic security lost in 2009 when the
prison closed. The thirst
for the history of hard
time and lure of hard
liquor has changed the
maximum-security prison
to a tourist attraction. The
site is currently home to a
moonshine distillery, concert
venue, restaurant, gift shop
and prison tours, but much
more is yet to come which
includes a campground.
