Tucked away in the heart of the Smoky Mountains and just a short drive from the charm of Gatlinburg, this 2.75-acre mountain oasis is your chance to own a truly magical retreat. Picture yourself unwinding by your very own mountain stream, surrounded by nothing but the peaceful sounds of nature. This unique property, lovingly known as Camp Grits, operated successfully for 10 years as a top-rated Airbnb and offers endless possibilities for homesteading, income, or your personal escape. The handcrafted 1-bedroom, 1-bath cabin features a cozy two-room loft and has been thoughtfully updated with brand-new plumbing, a new hot water heater, a fresh kitchen range, and a new refrigerator. The bathroom has been completely renovated with a new shower stall, and a newly added living room with blown-in insulation, two large windows, and new flooring brings warmth and light into the space. The home is heated by a permanent heat propane heater and cooled with unit air conditioning. But the charm doesn't stop there—this property also includes a fully furnished tiny house, two vintage campers bursting with character, and a stunning teepee perched right on the creek's edge. Whether you envision a thriving short-term rental business, a mountain homestead, or a peaceful place to recharge, this gem offers it all. Come experience the magic for yourself—this is Smoky Mountain living at its finest.
