STR: Great Smokey Mountains

[Anna Batchelor]

Hi everyone!! I'm super interested in breaking into the STR market around the great smoky mountains in TN. Does anyone have some advise for where exactly to look? I'd love a fun cabin-like place but I see on the free market a lot of them are prohibitive of short rentals. I'm looking in Pigeon forge and also found some stuff outside knoxville and in pittman center. Thoughts?

Any wisdom you can share is greatly appreciated. I don't know the area and am just in the exploratory phase. I'm out of state (NJ) so everything would be remote.

Thanks!!

Anna
