Welcome to Sunset Vista, perfectly positioned on the Wears Valley side of Townsend--known as ''The Peaceful Side of the Smokies.'' True to its name, this cabin delivers breathtaking, unobstructed west-facing mountain views, offering nightly sunsets that paint the sky and create a setting that feels both private and unforgettable.

While officially a 2-bedroom cabin, Sunset Vista lives much larger with 5 separate sleeping areas and accommodations for up to 12 guests, making it an exceptional opportunity for both personal enjoyment and short-term rental potential.

Tucked away from the crowds, the property offers a rare blend of privacy, elevation, and convenience--giving you the ability to enjoy the Smokies in peace while remaining within easy reach of top destinations. Located just a short drive to Cades Cove and the area's most sought-after hiking trails, and only 17 miles to both Dollywood and Gatlinburg, you're close to everything--without being in the middle of it.

Inside, each space is thoughtfully positioned to capture mountain views. The interior embraces a classic Smoky Mountain lodge feel, anchored by a stone fireplace in the main living area. Upstairs, unwind in the jetted soaking tub set beside a large picture window--perfectly framing the mountains beyond.

Outdoor living is where this home truly shines. With three separate decks, including two facing the mountains, you'll find multiple spaces to relax and take in the views. Enjoy evenings around the gas fire table, soak in the hot tub overlooking the mountains, or simply sit back and watch the sunset in total privacy.

The lower level features a game room, adding another layer of entertainment for guests or family.

Whether you're searching for a personal mountain retreat or an income-producing property, this cabin checks both boxes. While the current owners primarily used the home as a second residence, a professional property management company has provided a market projection of up to $95,000 annually based on current data and comparable performance. (Full projection available in MLS documents.)

Sunset Vista offers what so many buyers are chasing but rarely find--clear views, true privacy, and a location that balances peaceful seclusion with accessibility.
