1423 Emily Drive
Welcome to your foothills basecamp -- where the garage is the star of the show and pair it with an updated home and the Great Smoky Mountains are your backyard playground. 1423 Emily Drive sits quietly on nearly three-quarters of an acre in the foothills, just 5 miles from Douglas Dam, 5 miles from I-40, and 7 miles from Pigeon Forge.
