Gatlinburg, Tennessee Investment Opportunity
VPI has been retained by the development and ownership group of Big Elk Resort to
procure an equity partner for a development opportunity in Gatlinburg, TN. The 11.4
acre parcel, with Parkway frontage cannot be replicated in the market. Due to the vast
number of tourists that visit The Great Smokey Mountains National Park (9.5 Million
annually), truly unique site characteristics and site specific entitlements, no similar
opportunity exists anywhere else in the U.S.
The Big Elk Resort and Retail center is located literally at the gateway to Gatlinburg,
TN, across the street from the Gatlinburg welcome center. The site is comprised of 11.4
acres with 1,200 lineal feet of frontage on both the Parkway, and The Little Pigeon
River. Gatlinburg, Tennessee is nestled at the base of the Smokey Mountain National
Park which attracts 9,500,000 visitors per annum. The Smokey Mountains are the 12th
most visited attraction in the world, ranking behind The Great Wall of China.
The development of this site is the last opportunity that exists in the Gatlinburg market
to assemble a large tract for a multi-use project. In addition, most of the land in the
Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge market is developed or occupied under long term ground
leases. This property is comprised of 9.6 acres Fee Simple land, and a very attractive
ground lease for the 1.8 acre tract that comprises the assembled parcel.
