Elk Springs Resort - Gatlinburg Luxury Cabin Rental Community

 

Elk Springs Resort is a luxury, high end development located in the Gatlinburg Arts & Crafts Community in Gatlinburg, Tennessee . There are 121 building lots on 68 acres. Access is from Powdermill Road off Glades Road in the Gatlinburg Arts & Crafts Community. To travel to downtown Gatlinburg takes about 10 minutes and to the Arts & Crafts Community less than five minutes. The development consists nearly exclusively of rental cabins, most of which have been very productive on the overnight rental program.

The development was started around 2006 and has seen quite a few rental cabins built since then. There are still some lots available where cabins haven't been built. As you enter the development you are greeted with an elegant Elk Springs Resort entrance sign and travel up the road for a while before you get to the rental cabins. The overnight rental cabin management is handled exclusively by Elk Springs Resort. High speed internet and cable TV is available from all of the cabins. There are a large number of cabins in the development that have theater rooms. Elk Springs Resort has one of the highest ratios of Gatlinburg cabins with theater rooms as any development in the Smoky Mountains. Many of the cabins also have unique features with small trees and branches tastefully decorating the inside of the cabins.

Gatlinburg cabin with theater room - Elk Springs Resort - Rental cabin community in Gatlinburg, TNThe cabins vary quite a bit in size from 1 bedrooms to 5 bedrooms. All cabins have metal roofs and many have differing colors where there aren't two cabins with the same color metal roof adjacent to each other.

I consider this overnight rental cabin development to be one of the very best for Gatlinburg cabin rentals. The cabins are very well built, are in close proximity to Gatlinburg and the Arts & Crafts Community, and many feature theater rooms to enhance the rental potential of the properties. The cabins without theater rooms are also quality built and offer varying floor plans. The developer took care not to cut down every tree in sight and some cabins have a nice wooded environment.

General Price Range

Prices within the development vary tremendously depending on the size. Foreclosures have sold for as low as $165,000 within the development and some homes have sold for well over $500,000. Most of the cabins that are not foreclosures are priced in the $250,000 to $400,000 range. Several 2 bedroom cabins have sold as foreclosures or short sales for less than $200,000 and others approximately half of what they originally sold for. These are among what I consider to be some of the best deals in our area. Especially a couple recent foreclosures on Buck Tale Way that produce great rental incomes for the selling price.

Other/Miscellaneous

Lonnie Privett (Custom Crafted Construction) built most if not all of the cabins in the development and he builds a very good quality cabin in our area. Andy Gladstein handles the property management and produces great rental incomes for the properties and was also the developer of Elk Springs Resort.
