Watauga Lake Getaway

Beautiful property. Spacious bedrooms. Fully stocked kitchen. Plenty of outdoor seating areas - covered and uncovered. We enjoyed having meals outdoors on the deck, a fire in the firepit and relaxing in the living room. A great place for our group of 3 couples.

Very Nice Stay

This lake house was very clean and had so much to offer. We will definitely be staying again. The kitchen had the essentials for cooking our meals. There is towels for the lake which was nice so you don't have to pack extras. Highly recommend this place!!

Great cabin

The cabin was very comfortable and well equipped with everything needed for a stay, especially the kitchen. The rooms are very spacious so we didn’t feel we were crowded at all. Being right on the lake was great for activities. Deb, our guest contact responded very quickly to the couple of questions we had and the cabin was extremely clean. We would highly recommend this cabin.

Great place!

This house has everything you could need for a Great Lake house stay. We enjoyed the stocked kitchen, the lake amenities and watercraft, the beds were cozy and in general had a great time. I’d say the weirdest part is the property rental company-answers to questions feel more like AI rather than real people, but in general at least my questions got answered. We plan to rent this place again!! Such a great time!

Great house

My family and I stayed for 3 nights while attending my nieces wedding. The house was clean and the kitchen well stocked with anything we needed during our stay. We really enjoyed the lake views and the kids had a great time with the kayaks on the lake. Getting around was a little stressful as we didn’t have good cell service and basically no navigation. Other than that it’s a great house in a beautiful location and I would definitely stay there again next time we visit East TN.

Secluded, adventure, 45 mins from Boone

This location is the best of all worlds. You have the quietness and seclusion of a deep-in-the-woods lake. All of the fun you can have on the water with a private dock and water toys. 30 mins from a TON of great hiking trails, including the AT. And if you have the itch to spend a day in town you can make it to Boone or Banner Elk in less than 45 mins. 5 star vacation property!

Fantastic Cabin

This cabin and property was absolutely beautiful! The cabin was very well stocked. The view was fantastic! The only issue that we came across was the steepness of the walkway. A handrail would have made this much easier on getting to and from the lake. A member of our family has leg issues and it was a bit difficult for them walking up or down the steep sidewalk. Overall we had an amazing week at the cabin on the lake! We would love to stay here again!
