DOUGLAS LAKEFRONT SHORT-TERM RENTAL ON 4 ACRES! Welcome to ''REEL IT IN,'' a spacious, established vacation rental offering the rare combination of 7 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, 4,000+ square feet, approximately 4 wooded acres, and direct frontage on beautiful Douglas Lake. Offered fully furnished. This property presents an exciting opportunity for buyers seeking an income-producing vacation rental, second home, or private lakefront retreat in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains. Designed for large gatherings, the home offers three levels of living and entertaining space, giving family and guests plenty of room to spread out. The main level features a spacious kitchen and dining area adjoining an oversized living room with fireplace, along with two bedrooms--including a primary en suite--a game room, sunroom/all-season room, and dual lakeview decks. The upper level provides three additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a large family/media room. The lower level offers two bedrooms, kitchen, bath, living and dining areas, plus a screened porch and waterside decks--creating a versatile separate living area that has also been used as a host's apartment. The photographs tell the story of a property made for lake life and entertaining. Multiple decks and covered outdoor spaces wind through the wooded setting toward the shoreline, offering numerous places for outdoor dining, morning coffee, relaxing with friends, or simply enjoying the water and mountain views. Waterfront amenities include a fishing pier, gazebo, floating platform dock, screened porch, upper morning porch/deck, and multiple lakeview gathering areas. An oversized storage garage provides room for boats, jet skis, fishing equipment, and lake toys, while a separate workshop offers additional space for hobbies and projects. The gated entrance, electronic locks, and property surveillance system add convenience for both private and rental use. Despite its peaceful 4-acre lakefront setting, the property remains convenient to East Tennessee's most popular destinations--approximately 10 minutes from historic Dandridge, 30 minutes from Sevierville/Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg and Great Smoky Mountains National Park, 40 minutes from Knoxville and the University of Tennessee, and approximately 45 minutes from McGhee Tyson Airport, with convenient access to I-40, I-81, and I-75. Douglas Lake is renowned for boating, fishing, recreation, and its beautiful East Tennessee scenery, making ''REEL IT IN'' an appealing alternative to the traditional Smoky Mountain cabin experience. Whether continuing its established short-term rental use or creating your own private family lake retreat, this property offers the space, setting, and waterfront amenities to make lasting memories on Douglas Lake. Property conveys fully furnished. Showings by appointment only and subject to existing rental occupancy. Douglas Lake water levels fluctuate seasonally due to TVA reservoir management.
