Perched at approximately 1,500 feet in elevation, the property offers sweeping, panoramic mountain views and an unmatched sense of privacy and tranquility. Thoughtfully developed and meticulously maintained, the resort has quickly established itself as a top-tier income producing asset with a strong and consistent financial track record. The numbers speak for themselves. Generating over $270,000 in its inaugural year (2022), increasing to $287,000 the following year, and reaching an impressive $363,000 in 2024, with $317,000 recorded in 2025. $222K already on the books for 2026! Trending above 2025 revenue! This growth underscores both the strength of the location and the property's operational success. The resort features a total of 8 fully furnished, turnkey cabins, including 5 traditional cabins and 3 treehouse style cabins. Each unit is designed to deliver a premium guest experience, complete with hot tubs, arcade games and fire pits. Guests are immersed in nature with private hiking trails that wind throughout the property, creating a true mountain retreat experience while still being just minutes from top area attractions. Located only 2 minutes from Townsend's popular bike greenway and river tubing access, and a short drive to Cades Cove, Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and Sevierville, the location offers the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility. Originally undeveloped for nearly 15 years, the current owner has transformed this property into a thriving STR business with no restrictions, offering flexibility for self-management or the option to partner with a professional management company.
