About This Home

As of November 2024

Calling all Sassenachs! Now is your chance to own part of the most unique rental community in one of the country's most visited tourist destinations. This newly constructed, 2,120-square-foot ''ancient'' castle, is one of the last opportunities to be a part of the popular Forgotten Forest in Sevier County, Tennessee.


An imaginative, new overnight rental community filled with magical houses, under-the-hill burrows, woodland cabins, and other unique offerings, the Forest is designed for and by mythical creatures. Hidden on eight acres in Kodak, Tennessee, the Forgotten Forest is close to Dollywood, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and the new exit 407 development.


Overlooking the Stone Circle, garden labyrinth, and acres of trees, this roomy castle has three large bedrooms, with lots of bed space for maximum occupancy and is sure to be in demand by royals and commoners. Though still under construction, the Forgotten Forest boasts an occupancy rate well above the region's average (check out The Wizard's Trolley, Howard's Hollow, Three Wizard's, Spellbound Inn, First Love, and Mandrake's Lodge on Airbnb).


This magical community also includes carved woodland creatures, a wishing well, 10-foot tall ancient sword, and soon will be home to an ancient ruins pool and waterpark slide.


This is the only castle that will be sold at the Forest. With the large bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, granite tops, wood and stone exterior and interior, and a generous patio with oversize hot tub, this castle is uniquely designed for tourists. The Forest is completely sold out, so do not miss a chance to start making passive income by summer! Proof of financing required with offer.
