When it comes to charm, location, and true short-term rental performance, this cabin checks every box. Perfectly positioned just minutes from Dollywood, this property blends convenience with the peaceful mountain setting guests are searching for.

This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom cabin with bonus sleeping space comfortably sleeps 8 and is marketed as such, with a recent fire inspection completed and a sleeper sofa added to maximize occupancy. As a self-managed short-term rental, it has proven income year over year, giving investors real performance data--not just projections.
The outdoor experience is exactly what guests want in the Smoky Mountains. A covered back deck with a hot tub overlooks the woods, creating a private, peaceful setting to unwind after a full day exploring Great Smoky Mountains National Park or enjoying nearby attractions. The front deck, built just two years ago, adds even more functional outdoor living space.
Located just 8 minutes from Dollywood and right off Upper Middle Creek Road, this cabin delivers quick access to the Parkway without sacrificing the quiet mountain feel. Water is covered through the HOA at $230 per quarter, and the average electric bill is approximately $225 per month--helping keep operating expenses predictable.
From an investment standpoint, this property hits on all fronts: cash flow potential, appreciation, and strong tax advantages. With bonus depreciation opportunities still in play, this could be a powerful addition to your portfolio while helping offset 2026 tax liability. Let your guests help pay down the mortgage while you build long-term wealth.
If you're searching for a turnkey Smoky Mountain short-term rental that combines location, performance, and guest appeal, this is one you don't wait on.
