This was our second year staying here, and it was just as perfect as the first. We love starting mornings in the hot tub and ending evenings by the outdoor gas fireplace. The private dock, tucked into a peaceful cove, is a beautiful spot for lounging and we especially appreciated being able to keep our rented pontoon there overnight. The setting is absolutely stunning—quiet, picturesque, and right on the water. The home is comfortable, pet friendly, and has everything you need for a relaxing getaway. We’ll definitely be back!

Great vacation, beautiful setting

This was an organized and well supplied beautiful cabin and location on the lake. Being set in a cove and staying on weekdays it was very quiet and peaceful. If I need to include a fault it is the grill that was in terrible condition and unusable. We had a perfect vacation.

Watauga Lake stay

Our second time at this property. It is beautiful, lots of time spend in and on the water. Dogs had a great time soaking up sun on the large deck. There are MANY stairs down to the lake so keep this in mind with pets and family.

We had a great weekend! The house is very clean and comfortable.

This is a beautiful house! We didn't need anything except for a coffee pot. I would recommend going to a grocery store before getting to the lake house. We enjoyed grilling, using the hot tub, and playing the great selection of board games!

Great vacation

The home was wonderful. Peaceful quiet location on the cove. We brought our boat ex access launch was only 10 minutes away. Home was stocked wonderfully with everything you need and more. We loved all the games to choose from, the fire pit and multiple fireplaces. Pristinely clean upon arrival, host was very attentive. Cell service was a bit of an issue for us, but we made it ok. Internet excellent, such a great family vacation thank you!

Absolutely wonderful stay at this home. Conveniently located right on the water. Tastefully appointed with wonderful decor. Just a great layout with plenty of room for three couples and two pets. Kitchen was well stocked. Great outdoor fireplace on the porch and an additional firepit. We also loved the hot tub. Open and quick communication with the owners for any little question we had.

Serene holiday stay

My partner and i stayed for a week and would like to come back sometime in 2024. The house was super cozy, with lots to do right there. The views of the lake were incredible, since the trees had no foliage and we were able to see far down the lake from the porch. We brought lots of wood and enjoyed warm fires on the back porch after dinner. The hot tub was clean and a nice touch on cool evenings. The owner was very responsive and provided a very detailed binder that answered any question a renter might have.

Absolutely beautiful home. Gas Fireplace inside and out was perfect. Grill was good! Could use some new cooking pans, but the place was absolutely wonderful. No cell service but had good internet so that wasn't a problem at all. We will definitely rent this in the future. Host was extremely responsive to any questions and provided sound answers and solutions. Thank you for a wonderful memory and weekend!
