What is Reedmont

The Lodges at Reemont is a cabin community located in-between Sevierville and Pigeon Forge that is designed to be a modern Smoky Mountain getaway in the form of vacation rentals. In contrast to the trademark rustic cabin style that The Smokies is known for, Reedmont features contemporary designs with open floor plans, large windows, luxury finishes and amenities that are designed with both the guest and the owner in mind for an enjoyable stay, and a simplified STR investor experience.

This community is particularly appealing for buyers that are looking for a property that has two functions. Primarily being a vacation rental property, but also being a vacation home for the investor which creates income, but also a second home for the investor.

Many of the properties are designed with larger renting groups in mind, making them accommodable for families, reunions, trips for organizations or teams, and other group vacations.

What Types of Properties Does Reedmont Have Available?

The community features a large variety of floor plans including three, four, and five bedroom lodge designs ranging from 2,393 sq feet to 3,400 sq feet.

Depending on the property, buyers can find features such as:

  • Multiple private bedroom suites
  • Open-concept living spaces
  • Large decks and mountain views
  • Hot tubs
  • Game rooms
  • Theater Rooms
  • Rooftop entertainment areas
  • Indoor pools
  • Modern kitchens and finishes

The combination of size and amenities is important in The Great Smoky Mountain vacation rental market. This is an area where guests are looking for properties that provide an experience instead of just a place to sleep.

Location of Reedmont

One of the biggest selling points of Reedmont is the location it is in. The Lodges at Reedmont community is in a position to where it is a short distance from major attractions that visitors travel for. It is also in a spot that allows easy travel to each of the area's key towns: Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg.

Attractions in close proximity to Lodges at Reedmont include:

This proximity is an advantage for the investors due to the balance that it provides. Guests are close to major attractions but are not located on the busy Parkway.

Why Should Buyers Pay Attention?

This community is a perfect example of the growing market in East Tennessee. Instead of relying on the traditional style of cabins, new developments are incorporating features from popular styles outside of the area. Now there are a variety of options for potential renters with concepts, amenities, and accommodations such as larger bedrooms, private pools, entertainment spots, rooftop decks, modern kitchens, and most importantly those famous Smoky Mountain views.

Though, for investors the amenities are only part of the equation when picking which property is right for them. Location, purchasing price, operating expenses, property management, local regulations, existence of an HOA, competition, and realistic rental projections all need to be evaluated before a purchase takes place.

For someone looking for possible options when it comes to a STR property, Lodges at Reedmont is a very strong contender considering its location, modern design, and larger spaces.

The Smokies have no shortage of cabins, but Reedmont is a community worth keeping your eye on.
