The property is legally grandfathered under current Sevier County STR regulations, fully permitted and compliant, and was constructed prior to newer sprinkler requirements, preserving its lawful operating status.

Offered fully furnished and turnkey, and conveniently located minutes from Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and Dollywood, this is an exceptional opportunity for investors seeking secure STR rights, strong historical cash flow, high-occupancy capacity, and minimal regulatory risk in a premier Smoky Mountain destination.
