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.
