We had a lovely stay at Jarrod’s house. The house was pristine and appointed very nicely and was very comfortable. Beautiful spot on the river. Jarrod was a terrific host. We did not need anything while there, but Jarrod made it clear to let him know if we needed anything.
REELaxed on Watauga River is a very nice property in Elizabethton, TN. The house is spacious and the property is large, peaceful and quiet. The house offerered everything we needed. There is also a firepit with chairs adjacent to the river that is a place to sit, relax, and enjoy time with family and friends. Jarrod and Megan are very attentive hosts.
From the sounds of the Watauga river rushing by to the darling baby geese and family we got to watch every day, this hidden gem was everything we hoped it would be and more. The host was very kind and super quick to respond to any questions. Check in and out was a breeze! Everything was so clean and stocked with coffees, creamers, and sweet welcome gifts (loved the energy waters)! We will definitely be making plans to return!
Beautiful home with everything we needed. Comfy beds. Fully equipped kitchen. Awesome fire pit down by the water. Even the holders for roasting marshmallow were provided! The view is outstanding! Back porch is amazing...with both a dining area, and a sitting area with grill. So close to downtown, and yet you feel like you're out in the country! It's peaceful, safe and simply marvelous. We have family in town...so we used it as an "overflow" house...but everyone wanted to come spend time with us! When we weren't marveling at the river and the mountain behind it, we were enjoying football on the MASSIVE TV! I'm sure we'll be back. The entire family loved this house!
