With a strong reputation for hospitality and an established base of repeat clientele, this exceptional retreat has become a sought-after getaway for fishermen, families, groups, and corporate gatherings alike. This extraordinary estate offers exceptional versatility, making it ideally suited for multi-generational living, a private family retreat, an exclusive trout club, or a well-established hospitality and income-producing business. Its thoughtful layout also lends itself seamlessly to a combination of these possibilities, creating a rare opportunity to live, work, entertain, and pursue your passions, all within one remarkable setting. In addition to the Main Lodge, which serves beautifully as a primary residence, the property features six charming guest cabins, a picturesque riverside event venue, a gift shop, and a fully equipped woodworking workshop. Encompassing approximately 13.63 acres and boasting 540 feet of frontage along the South Holston River, Tailwaters Lodge is bordered and protected on three sides by TVA property, creating an exceptional sense of privacy and tranquility while offering significant opportunities for future growth and development. Take in stunning mountain vistas from the elevated areas of the property while also enjoying easy access to the river's edge, creating the perfect setting for relaxation, recreation, and soaking in the natural beauty of the surroundings. The current owners have invested tremendous care, vision, and resources into transforming this property into an exceptional investment opportunity. Significant infrastructure improvements include upgraded gravel roads, new roofing, enhanced utilities and drainage systems, the addition of new cabins, and the most recent creation of a dedicated wedding venue, all contributing to the property's appeal and long-term value. Three of the cabins, along with the workshop complete with an apartment above, were newly constructed in 2021, while the remaining cabins have been thoughtfully renovated and upgraded throughout ownership. Each cabin has been carefully curated with its own distinctive character and inviting atmosphere, creating a memorable guest experience. One of the property's most compelling features is its AR (Agricultural/Recreational) zoning, which provides a significant competitive advantage. Unlike most riverfront properties that are restricted to single-family residential use, Tailwaters Lodge offers the flexibility for continued growth and development. Approvals are already in place for a 3,500± square foot central lodge as well as an additional two-bedroom cabin. With only a limited number of riverfront properties sharing this zoning designation, Tailwaters Lodge represents a truly rare and highly valuable investment opportunity. Conveniently located just minutes from Bristol and the Tri-Cities, Tailwaters Lodge offers easy access to area amenities while maintaining a peaceful, private setting. The property is also within walking distance of Weir Dam, a public boat launch, park and more than five miles of scenic walking trails. With currently the largest guest capacity of any rental property along the South Holston River, Tailwaters Lodge is exceptionally positioned to maintain its status as a premier destination for luxury riverfront lodging and group retreats for years to come.

Whether you choose to preserve its successful legacy or reimagine it for the future, this exceptional property is a blank canvas awaiting the next owner's vision. With endless possibilities, it offers the opportunity to create a truly one-of-a-kind destination tailored to your dreams.
