    What's special

    Stunning mountain views
    This charming log cabin, Sky View comes with 4.36 acres with buildable land behind this cabin that offers guests stunning mountain views and the perfect basecamp for exploring everything the area has to offer. As a proven income-producing property, Sky View enjoys strong summer bookings and consistent demand from travelers drawn to the Cherohala Skyway -- one of America's most scenic byways. The cabin is fully furnished and ready for immediate operation, with all future bookings transferring to the new owner. Just minutes from charming downtown Tellico Plains, guests love the easy access to great local restaurants, shops, and the historic small-town atmosphere. The area is a gateway to the Cherokee National Forest, the Tellico River, Bald River Falls, and endless outdoor recreation including hiking, fishing, kayaking, and world-class motorcycle and sports car routes. This is a rare opportunity to own a performing short-term rental cabin in a high-demand tourist destination. Buyers also have the option to purchase the adjacent 3.95-acre lot directly behind the cabin to combine the properties, dramatically increase privacy, and potentially build another cabin or guest house. Whether you're looking for a turn-key investment or your own private mountain retreat, Sky View delivers the perfect combination of location, views, and income potential in the heart of the Cherohala Skyway corridor.
