With projected annual short-term rental income of $55,000 or more, this newly renovated log cabin offers one of the best investment opportunities in the Smokies. At just $385,000, the return on investment potential is hard to ignore — especially given its unbeatable location right off The Spur, perfectly positioned between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Guests will love the easy, level access with no steep mountain roads to climb, while still being minutes to all the area's top attractions, dining, and entertainment. Freshly renovated from top to bottom and never before placed on a rental program, this cabin is truly turn-key. With no management contracts in place, it's ideal for investors who want the freedom to self-manage for maximum returns or seamlessly partner with a professional management company for hassle-free passive income. Inside, you'll find all the rustic charm and modern convenience today's guests are searching for. Vaulted timber-clad ceilings, new windows, a stunning original stone fireplace (now updated with an electric insert), and timber panel accents give that authentic cabin feel, while tasteful upgrades keep everything fresh and functional. The living room welcomes with cozy new furnishings, pendant lighting, and a ceiling fan, flowing into a dedicated dining space and a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring all-new appliances, stacked washer/dryer, solid countertops, and custom-style timber cabinets. The master suite is highlighted by a walk-in closet, original stone accent wall, and an ensuite bath with modern upgrades, including timber-look tile and stylish fixtures. A second full bathroom carries the same mountain-modern style and serves the guest bedroom, which itself impresses with vaulted ceilings, twin closets, a stone feature wall, vanity space, and direct access to the front deck. Step outside and enjoy the Smoky Mountain setting. A gentle creek flows along the front of the property, while a covered porch and private outdoor space offer the perfect setup for rocking chairs, a hot tub, or an outdoor bar. A flat driveway provides ample parking, even for an RV, and the 1.6-acre lot blends landscaped, level yard with wooded mountain privacy behind the home. The exterior shines with a metal roof, fresh gutters, and a combination of original stone and log plank siding that enhance the cabin's character. Whether you're seeking a proven income generator or a personal mountain retreat with outstanding rental potential, this cabin delivers both.
