Description
85.82 +/- acres minutes from I-40 and the Great Smoky Mountains - a rare opportunity to own a built-out glamping and agritourism property with the expensive, time-consuming site infrastructure already in place. Step into finished roads, utilities, water, and income-ready sites instead of spending 12 to 18 months and six figures developing raw land. INCOME POTENTIAL Revenue-producing components are in place today. Six RV sites with full hookups - power, water, and sewer - are ready for guests, and two have already generated rental income. The upper tiny house unit offers established lodging with a rental history. With glamping tents in place and additional sites ready to develop, the property delivers immediate income and clear room to grow. WATER AND UTILITIES A 30 GPM private well serves all sites, and the water supply was tested and certified by a state-certified testing authority for the property's campground permit. The property includes a full water treatment system, on-site septic serving the campsites, grid electric distributed throughout to individual sites and RV hookups, an internal road network, Spectrum fiber internet, and on-site laundry. Detailed soil maps are available to support planning for additional septic capacity as a buyer scales the property up. BUILDINGS AND IMPROVEMENTS An eight-bath bathhouse serves the glamping village. The event and amenity building, known as Base Camp, features a commercial-kitchen rough-in with an Ansul fire-suppression system, three-bay dish sink, hand-wash sink, and pantry, along with indoor reception space, two full baths, and a covered porch - designed for events, weddings, and gatherings. A two-unit tiny house adds further lodging, and a four-bay 20x40 pole barn handles equipment and storage. Two glamping tents are in place on the grounds. INCLUDED TENT INVENTORY - A SIGNIFICANT VALUE-ADD Four Yala tent structures convey with the sale, offering substantial additional value a buyer would otherwise purchase new. The centerpiece is a 430 +/- sf Dreamer 40 with mini kitchen, full bath, two bedrooms, and a covered porch, with a replacement cost new of approximately $100,000. Two Sparkle 8 tents and a Sparkle 12 round out the inventory, and the group site where they operated already has power run to the pad - letting a buyer expand capacity quickly. THE LAND Cleared and wooded acreage with a creek running through the property, a branch along the boundary, and a seasonal stream - three water features across the tract. An established hiking trail winds through the woods. Best of all, the land is UNZONED - Cocke County has no zoning ordinance - giving a buyer wide latitude to grow the glamping village or reimagine the infrastructure as a retreat center, equestrian operation, event or wedding venue, agritourism enterprise, or private family compound
Location
Newport, Tennessee sits at the eastern gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains — the most-visited national park in the United States, drawing roughly 12 million visitors a year — and this property is positioned to capture that traffic without paying Sevier County land prices.
The property is in Cocke County, minutes from I-40, the primary east-west corridor feeding the Smokies from both Knoxville and Asheville. That interstate access is the difference between a destination park and a drive-by park: guests find you on the way in, not after a detour.
What's within reach:
Cosby / Great Smoky Mountains National Park entrance — roughly 20 minutes
Pigeon River whitewater rafting corridor at Hartford — roughly 20 minutes
Douglas Lake boating, fishing, and marinas — roughly 20 minutes
Gatlinburg — roughly 35–40 minutes
Pigeon Forge and Dollywood — roughly 45 minutes
Asheville, NC — roughly 50 minutes east on I-40
Knoxville and McGhee Tyson Airport — roughly 45–60 minutes west
Cherokee National Forest, the Appalachian Trail at Davenport Gap, and Max Patch — all within an easy day loop
The setting is rural Appalachian farmland with long ridge views, hardwood cover, and open pasture — quiet enough to feel remote, close enough that guests are 20 minutes from a rafting launch or a national park trailhead.
Cocke County has no zoning ordinance, which gives an operator unusual latitude on site layout, unit mix, and phasing.
