From Zillow
This is one of those properties that just doesn’t come along often. Set on a private hilltop with sweeping views from Shields Mountain to English Mountain, this 13-suite lodge was built to impress–and it already performs like it averaging almost $800,000 gross revenues over the past 3 years. At the center is a massive great room with a two-story stone fireplace, soaring ceilings, and a statement staircase that immediately sets the tone, while every guest suite is dialed in with private balconies, individual climate control, and high-end finishes–with most featuring fireplaces and several offering private hot tubs, exactly the type of layout large groups actively search for and pay a premium to book. Already positioned to host weddings and large group events, but that’s just scratching the surface–there’s significant upside to expand those offerings while adding additional structures and amenities to elevate the guest experience and drive even stronger revenue. The main level flows into a spacious dining area with panoramic views, a full service bar, and direct access to an oversized covered deck, while the commercial-grade kitchen with double gas ranges, oversized island, and serious prep space is built to handle volume for events, retreats, or high-end group stays. Downstairs adds even more flexibility with a large meeting space, fitness room, and a separate 2BR/2BA living quarters that can easily be reimagined into a theater, game room, or additional revenue-producing space. Outside, the property separates itself even further with a dedicated grilling pavilion featuring screened dining, a firepit gathering area, and an additional two-level cabin with whirlpool suites that can operate independently or as part of the larger rental experience. Plenty of parking outdoors for all your guests. Currently operating as a successful upscale boutique hotel/STR, the revenue story here is already strong, but the real opportunity is operational, as transitioning from a labor-heavy on-site staffing model to a professional third-party property manager can significantly reduce fixed overhead, streamline operations, and scale bookings across multiple platforms–turning an already high-performing asset into a far more efficient and profitable investment. Located just minutes from Dollywood and the heart of the Smokies, this is a rare chance to own a true destination property with both proven income and clear upside, and if you’re looking for something that stands out in a crowded STR market, this is it.
