About

Escape to Serenity. Invest in Prosperity. Nestled in the peaceful embrace of Douglas Lake Resort, this exceptional 1,604 sq. ft. cabin offers the rare opportunity to own a spacious mountain-lake retreat where tranquility meets compelling investment potential. Here, the soft hush of the forest and the gentle rhythm of the lake replace the noise of everyday life. Yet you're only a short, easy drive from Sevier County's celebrated dining, attractions, and entertainment--without the congestion of the busiest tourist corridors. This balanced location creates a highly desirable guest experience that supports strong occupancy and repeat bookings. Step inside and feel the quiet luxury of thoughtfully upgraded finishes: warm engineered hardwood floors underfoot, a sleek stainless-steel kitchen with custom countertops and a striking brick backsplash, and cabinetry designed for both beauty and effortless living, complete with convenient pull-out storage. Every detail has been chosen to create a polished, low-maintenance space that appeals to discerning short-term rental guests while remaining ideal for your own family gatherings. This cabin unfolds across generous living areas, including a finished lower level ideal as a private game room, media lounge, or additional gathering space--features that can command higher nightly rates and accommodate groups. Outside, three separate decks and a private balcony off the upstairs bedroom invite guests (and owners) to linger in the fresh mountain air, listen to the sounds of nature, while creating the kind of memorable outdoor experiences that drive strong reviews and premium pricing. Major updates--including a newer roof and a nearly new HVAC system--have already been completed, reducing near-term capital expenses and giving investors greater confidence in net operating income. Residents and guests enjoy the resort's exceptional amenities at a modest HOA fee: a community pool, scenic walking trails, a charming covered bridge, a private boat launch, and a welcoming clubhouse--valuable lifestyle perks that enhance both personal enjoyment and rental appeal without high ongoing costs. Whether you are seeking a high-performing short-term rental positioned to capitalize on peak tourist seasons and year-round demand, a serene second home with income-offsetting potential, or a private sanctuary that can still generate returns when not in personal use, this property delivers a rare combination of lifestyle richness and financial upside. Weather you're wanting to capitalize bonus depreciation for 2026 or the high fall & holiday rental season approaching and inventory of well-maintained, larger cabins limited, this is a timely opportunity to secure a tranquil lakeside asset that can work for you both as a retreat and as a revenue-producing investment. Schedule your private showing today--properties offering this blend of serenity, size, updates, and income potential rarely remain available for long.
