An East Texas Springtime Diversion





Love's Lookout, elevation 713 feet above sea level Love's Lookout was once part of Love's peach orchard. Some of the land was deeded to the City of Jacksonville, TX, which is about 12 miles North of Rusk, the county seat.


One of East Texas' most breathtaking views, Love's Lookout, north of Jacksonville in Cherokee County is part of a long, flat-topped hill that extends north and south about nine miles. The east side looks over a broad valley - a wide expanse of beautiful scenery, (30-35 miles).

 See more information about it here, and here.
