About this home
PROVEN INCOME-PRODUCING GATLINBURG STR -- APPROXIMATELY $203,000 IN GROSS RENTAL REVENUE IN 2025! A true Smoky Mountain cabin and guest favorite featuring 3 EN SUITE KING BEDROOMS, 4.5 BATHROOMS, BEAUTIFUL MOUNTAIN VIEWS, PRIVATE INDOOR HEATED SWIMMING POOL, THEATER ROOM, GAME ROOM, HOT TUB, AND NO HOA! Already approximately $151,000 generated in 2026. Successfully self-managed by the current owners and backed by outstanding guest reviews, repeat visitors, and a strong history of bookings, this turnkey short-term rental offers the combination investors are looking for: impressive proven rental income, a highly desirable Smoky Mountain guest experience, privacy, amenities, and location.
Located at 1041 Vista Drive, this impressive Gatlinburg log cabin is approximately 5 miles from downtown Gatlinburg and approximately 12-13 miles from Pigeon Forge, putting guests within convenient driving distance of the area's most popular attractions, dining, shopping, entertainment, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Yet when guests return to the cabin, they can retreat to a private, wooded setting with beautiful mountain views and a peaceful backyard surrounded by nature. The wooded surroundings also provide opportunities for memorable Smoky Mountain wildlife sightings.
Built in 2020 with a log exterior and T&G throughout the interior, the cabin features 3 en suite king bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, including a main-level king suite, plus a guest half bath and laundry room. The open-concept main level showcases soaring cathedral ceilings, a spacious kitchen with granite countertops, island and ice maker, dining for up to 12, a see-through fireplace, and a beautiful wood front entry door with decorative leaded glass and dual sidelights. Two sets of doors, including sliding doors, open to an expansive deck where guests can relax in the hot tub while overlooking the private wooded backyard and fire pit.
Upstairs, the recreation/game area offers a pool table along with two additional en suite king bedrooms and some of the cabin's best mountain views.
The lower level takes the guest experience to another level and helps make this property a true year-round Smoky Mountain destination. Rainy day? Snow day? Guests don't have to leave the cabin to have an incredible vacation. This level features a dedicated home theater/media room with tiered theater seating, surround sound speakers throughout the room, convertible sleeper sofa, freestanding theater-style popcorn machine with wheeled cart, and a custom retro multicade arcade game table. Two sets of bunk beds and a full bath provide additional accommodations, while the private indoor heated swimming pool gives families and groups another major amenity to enjoy regardless of the weather. An additional expansive deck features a gas grill and outdoor seating.
With the indoor heated pool, theater room, game and arcade areas, pool table, hot tub, fire pit, multiple decks, mountain views, and wooded privacy, this cabin gives guests plenty to do without ever leaving the property--a major advantage for a Smoky Mountain overnight rental in every season.
The location adds even more appeal. Guests are approximately 5 miles from downtown Gatlinburg, home to attractions such as Anakeesta and Gatlinburg SkyPark, and approximately 12-13 miles from Pigeon Forge, with easy access to destinations including Dollywood and The Island. Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Sugarlands Visitor Center are also within convenient driving distance, giving guests quick access to hiking, waterfalls, scenic drives, and everything the Smokies are known for.
THE NUMBERS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES: approximately $203,000 in gross rental revenue in 2025 and approximately $151,000 already generated in 2026. Combined with outstanding guest reviews and repeat customers....
