MOUNTAIN SHORES PROPERTY


Mountain Shores, located in the “Strawberry Festival” famous town of Dayton, TN, is 950 phenomenal acres of pasture and wooded hills along the banks of the Tennessee River. Given the 3 miles of waterfront on the Chickamauga Lake (Tennessee River) and the 3 additional miles in sloughs, this property is one of the largest and most attractive remaining undeveloped waterfront properties in the Tennessee Valley within 45 minutes of the robustly growing Chattanooga area. The location of this property adds to its value.

Approximately 790 acres are in woodlands, 500 of which are on the water, where large stands of older-growth hardwoods and scattered planted pine dominate the hillier portions with fantastic views of the Tennessee River Valley. On the higher elevation of the property nests a two-acre spring-fed hidden lake. The area is majestic, mysterious and beautiful. One must see to appreciate its glory.

The non-waterfront parts of this property are bordered mostly by the TVA and a large timber company, which makes the odds of the bordering property remaining undeveloped very high. Mark-Anton Airport is only one mile from the property, providing very convenient fly-in opportunity.

The airport, large size, beauty and opportunity of Mountain Shores cannot be compared. The value being offered to the buyer is phenomenal. This property can provide excellent family retreats and recreational opportunities. The possibilities are endless.

Dear Mr. Light,
Thank you for pushing so hard on this project. It is obvious how you have been so successful at business. The project we are putting together here will be one the largest master planned community in the South East spanning four square miles of land. It will have an airport, mountain cabins and lake front estates. Total revenue from home and commercial sales will be in excess if $1 billion. By the time the last home here is built, there will be more people living in this community than the adjacent City of Dayton, Tennessee.

Development Ideas

These are examples of what the non-waterfront acreage could be used for. IT IS PROJECTED TO BUILD 1,000 CABINS VARYING IN SIZE AND DESIGN ON HALF-ACRE WATERFRONT LOTS. THESE CABINS WILL BE LEASED OR SOLD. A PORTION OF CABINS WILL HAVE BOAT HOUSES AND BOARDWALKS.

 Perhaps the most logical amenity would be an 18-hole golf course. The average size of an 18-hole golf course is 200 acres. The non-waterfront acreage available is over 300 acres. Therefore, the property is more than large enough to support an amenity the size of an 18-hole golf course.
