Exclusive Smoky Mountain Lodge Retreat With Expansive Views, Old-Growth For

The perfect culmination of natural beauty, tranquility and seclusion nestled in the heart of the Smoky Mountains. Located in Walland, Tennessee, this exclusive lodge includes 506 +/- acres of land with old-growth hardwood forest, spring-fed mountain streams, miles of roads, and phenomenal 360-degree ridge-top views. The location is so perfect that the world-renowned Blackberry Farm built their secluded resort, Blackberry Mountain, across the road from this property. An unrestricted recreational paradise with limitless possibilities, this exclusive retreat has all the markings of a hidden private resort yet the ability to subdivide into multiple estate-sized homesites if desired. Nestled in the valley is a beautifully remodeled and fully furnished seven-bedroom, five-bathroom lodge with a detached game room, two pavilions with stone fireplaces, an outdoor chapel, ample bus/RV parking, a large storage building with electricity, a storm shelter and two standby generators with two-one thousand gallon propane tanks. From the lodge's back door, there are miles of trails to hike or ride traversing the ridge tops with seemingly limitless Smoky Mountain views and secluded valleys teeming with wildlife. A once-in-a-lifetime property magnificently isolated for a measure of privacy that you'll truly appreciate; however, it is only 8 miles to Pigeon Forge, 12 miles to Maryville, 18 miles away from Knoxville's McGee Tyson Airport, and a 20-minute drive from the splendor of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park which gives you the comfort of privacy and accessibility to many amenities. Additional acreage and subdivision lots ready to build on are also available. This tract is shown as the ''Central'' section on maps provided and offered in 3 other options: 506.4 ac (East/West Tract), 332.4 ac (West Tract), or 174.09 ac (East Tract). Guided tours are provided to qualified buyers. Access by appointment only.*Co-listed with ReMax First, David Connors
