Relax, recharge and Birthday celebration

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!

Does not disappoint!

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.

Nice, clean house

Only issue was the gas grill. The burners were rusted resulting in uneven grilling. One burner would be flaming up while the adjacent burner would barely cook the food. Definitely need a new grill with a longer connection to roll it under the overhang. It was raining one night while I was grilling.

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.

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!

Mountain hideaway

We really enjoyed our stay at the property once we found it. Make sure you arrive for the first time in daylight as the roads are hard to navigate if you are unfamiliar with them.

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.

Cute house on the lake!

The house was very clean and accommodating. It's tucked into the woods in a quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed Watauga Winery (great pizza) and Villa Nove Vineyards for great wine and amazing views. The house had an outside fireplace that we used each night. Dollar General is very close if you run out of something but take your main food items as a grocery is far. Past reviews noted wifi was spotty but we had excellent signals. Would definitely come back again!

Loved Our Stay at Lakefront Butler Home

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. I highly recommend and will definitely be back. Thank you!

Watauga Lake stay

This was an amazing getaway! The house had everything you would need. Felt very comfortable and homey! We used the pedal boat and hung out on the dock. Also enjoyed just sitting on the deck overlooking the water. Peaceful and relaxing.

Anniversary Getaway

My husband & I have been wanting to stay on Watauga Lake for a long time when we discovered this beautiful home! Unfortunately for us the weather was unseasonably cold while we were there. So we didn't get to enjoy the lake but instead enjoyed the hot tub & fire place outside! Even though our trip didn't go as we planned we still loved this house & all the amenities! We will definitely book this house again in the future!

Beautiful Property

We had the most amazing week here. We hiked some of the surrounding trails and visited local restaurants, but spent as much time as possible on the lake. My boyfriend got a Tennessee fishing license for the week so he would fish and I would take the kayak out for photography. The view of the stars is incredible on clear nights so we would watch from the hot tub on chilly nights. We saw a crane and three otters while on the dock. The peace and quiet and beautiful views were much needed. We both have demanding jobs so this was exactly what we wanted.

Very nice house

The house is very clean and just as described. There have been improvements made to the dock which made it much nicer to get on dock. There are a lot of stairs - not for the faint of heart but worth it.

Awesome Secluded Lake House

Beautiful lake home, super clean and well equipped. Outdoor fireplace, Hot tub and firepit we awesome. Lake is absolutely gorgeous. The view from the decks make you feel like you are in the tree tops. FYI - there are lots of stairs to get to the lake. We were fine with it, but if you are older or have bad knees you may have some difficulty. Definitely make a reservation at La Cucina, delicious Italian food.

Great Lake Vacation

The house is as advertised, pictures truly are accurate. House is in a great location on the lake. No cell phone service at the house (which helped with a restful vacation) but internet worked very well. Bring your own towels for the lake and boat (if you have your own or rent one). Boat rental from Fish Springs Marina is excellent, we have used them multiple times. If you want to go out for an excellent italian dinner - make a reservation at La Cucina, about 15 minutes from the house - really incredible food. We enjoyed the quiet location of this house, the hot tub, fire pit, dock and lake activities. Good views of the water too. Beds are comfortable, house is very clean - a great spot for a summer vacation.
