960 Cottage Gardens Way Gatlinburg, TN 37738

The Views. The Upgrades. The Location. This Cabin Checks Every Box. Just minutes from downtown Gatlinburg and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, this 3 BD / 3.5 BA log cabin delivers the kind of mountain escape buyers dream about with all the right upgrades already in place. Tucked in an established, well-kept subdivision with city water, city sewer, natural gas, fiber-optic internet/cable, and all underground utilities, this 2,400+ sq ft retreat offers that rare mix of privacy, proximity, and polish. Whether you're looking for a second home or a standout STR, it's already on a well-performing rental program and ready to hit the ground running. Step inside and you'll immediately notice the difference: energy-efficient Low-E windows, LED recessed lighting, and 12mil plank flooring with whisper-quiet padding set the stage. The great room is wide open, welcoming you with pickled pine and a cozy fireplace. The kitchen is fully equipped for guests or gatherings, featuring 3mm leathered granite countertops, an oversized island, and all-wood cabinetry with soft-close drawers and doors -- a beautiful blend of rustic character and modern convenience. You'll find a main-level king suite with a private bath and walk-in shower, plus two additional ensuite bedrooms upstairs including a second king suite, perfect for multi-family bookings. Need space to play? The upstairs rec room/media den is huge and fully loaded: commercial-grade air hockey table, full-size pool table, and a whiskey barrel arcade console with 60+ retro games. It's the kind of fun that books return visits. Outside, you'll find two expansive rear decks with unobstructed views of the Smokies and Mt. LeConte, along with a 7-person hot tub for soaking under the stars. All exterior decking is durable composite, built to last through the seasons, and the home is topped with a metal roof for long-term peace of mind. Mountain homes like this don't come along often, especially ones this close to all the action, this well-appointed, and this rental-ready. Easy access from the Gatlinburg Bypass to Campbell Lead. or from Wiley Oakley Dr, and Ski Mountain Rd-access does not get better, with year around city road maintenance and trash pick up too. Come see it while you still can!
