Head out to catch walleye or trout on Lake Watauga or just enjoy the remarkable scenery or take a swim. Grandfather Mountain, Banner Elk, Blowing Rock and skiing at Beech & Sugar Mountain are all less than 1 hour from our cabin.

Lake Watauga is a hidden gem that is over 17 miles long, surrounded by beautiful mountains and hills with the majority of the lake being in the Cherokee National Forest. It is the first in a chain of lakes and is fed by natural mountain and spring waters which makes it one of the cleanest lakes in the USA. The views on the lake are absolutely spectacular year around and any size boat can be taken on the large lake.

Cabin with beautiful view and amenities

We had a great stay at this cabin. The deck was very spacious and clean and we were able to use the grill and enjoyed dinner out there.The hot tub was very clean and well maintained. The only drawback is the location as it’s at least 30 mins from the nearest town where you can get decent groceries and restaurant. Even though it’s weather, we still saw dead bugs (beetles, lady bugs, moths) on the window sill but that’s part of being in the nature. The view and the peaceful environment compensated for everything!

Mountain cabin

Gorgeous cabin, with beautiful mountain and lake views. We had all that we needed for the kitchen, bedrooms and bathrooms. Our host was amazing and gave us suggestions of where to eat and places to hike etc. It was a very relaxing and peaceful stay.

Rejuvenation!

This home away from home was so much more than we were anticipating. The incredible vista was breath-taking awe inspiring! The weather made it different each day. The cabin was exquisitely fresh and clean with simple but well appointed decor. The kitchen had everything we needed. Much of our time was spent outside in the different seating areas on the multiple decks enjoying immersion in nature; love the swing! We left renewed and refreshed and would go back in a heartbeat. Rick was very pleasant and responsive.

Why they chose this property

We love the stunning views of Lake Watauga. We fell in love with the area after visiting family who owned a house on Lake Watauga.

What makes this property unique

Our cabin is located on a private and secluded 8 acres on top of the mountain. It is a quiet get-away-location, but still centrally located so you can visit the local wineries, ski resorts, marinas, hiking trails, restaurants, and many other things.
