Turn-key STR opportunity with upside potential in a prime location directly across from Soaky Mountain Water Park and just minutes from Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.
From an investment standpoint, Bearless Whisper is showing strong year-over-year rental performance in today's evolving Smoky Mountain STR market. The cabin generated approximately $32,429 in rental revenue in 2025 and, as of late May 2026, was pacing approximately 18.3% ahead of the same timeframe last year with improved occupancy trends and more consistent booking activity. In a market where many properties are struggling to maintain occupancy, this cabin has continued to attract guests through competitive positioning, strong location appeal, and guest-focused amenities.
Current trends point toward the potential for an even stronger 2026 performance, giving buyers the opportunity to step into a property with proven rental history, positive momentum, and additional upside potential through minor occupancy and layout optimization. Buyers are encouraged to reach out for updated real-time booking and revenue growth data as the season progresses.
This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom cabin offers a flexible layout designed to maximize both guest experience and rental performance. Currently configured to sleep 4, the existing living room layout allows for an easy upgrade to a sleeper sofa, increasing capacity to 6 and creating immediate upside in both booking appeal and revenue potential.
Located at the end of a cul-de-sac, this cabin features a serene wooded backdrop and year-round mountain views while mature trees create a more private feel--especially from the rear decks overlooking the mountains. With city water and sewer in place, the property offers both convenience and peace of mind for long-term ownership and rental performance.
Inside, you'll find an inviting open-concept living area with a gas-log fireplace, a fully updated kitchen featuring granite countertops and modern appliances (2021), and
