Lakeside Haven is located in a prime area of Watauga Lake and is nestled under canopy of trees with it's decks overhanging the beautiful waters of Watauga Lake. The absolute magical quality of the outside living area is what keeps people leaving the 5 star reviews and coming back year after year.

From there you can boat or fish to your hearts content from daylight to dark if you choose.

Peaceful Getaway

Great location on the lake! The cabin is small but efficiently laid out. Comfortable bed, nice towels, good Wi-Fi. The decks are great for enjoying the lake view, and the kayaks were a great way to explore this finger of the lake.

Romantic getaway

My partner and I shared a 3-night, romantic getaway over New Year’s Eve at the lake cabin. Accommodations were perfect, and we really enjoyed star gazing while soaking in the hot tub. Great view of the lake, and good opportunities for hiking nearby.

Stay at Watuga

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Wonderful location and private. Was able to park out boat/trailer and felt very safe to leave it as we ventured out. The host was very accommodating and returned our call/messages quickly. I would mention the phone service is poor and the road leading down to the house was rough.

The perfect quiet getaway

We had such a lovely stay here and can’t wait to come back again! The location is perfectly secluded in nature and the easy walk down to the dock allowed us to enjoy the lake to the fullest. The small cabin had everything you could need for cooking in and relaxing comfortably. Thank you to our hosts who who had excellent communication and recommendations.

Great Location!

Roomy and clean, couldn't ask for a better experience. Owners were responsive and hospitable, bedding was super comfortable, views are amazing! Enjoyed the boat rental, too, the lake was stunning. Fishing was good & the rental had all the amenities you'd expect in a high-end luxury cabin. Secluded and quiet, exactly what we needed. A+ in every way.

Relaxing getaway in beautiful spot

This was a truly relaxing and lovely getaway. The surroundings are absolutely beautiful and it is quiet and peaceful at the house. The lower deck with the lounge chairs was a perfect morning and evening spot to relax and enjoy the lake. The hot tub was clean, as was everything else in the house. The host was easy to get ahold of and communicated clearly. A great place to stay! One thing to think about - the space, especially in the bedroom, is small. The pictures reflect this quite well, just make sure you're good with that and you will have a wonderful time!

Peaceful cabin on a lake

We had a wonderful stay. The host is one of the good ones...you'll find all the little extras - soaps, lotion, shampoo, cleaning products, basic spices, a first aid kit, and laundry detergent - all the things that come in handy for travelers! The linens all looked brand new and the mattress was very comfortable. We enjoyed using the kayaks and were happy to find life vests available. The a/c was perfect and the wifi signal strong. It was a perfect weekend for my husband, pup, and I.

Quiet, spotless, and charming!

This place is lighter, brighter, cleaner, newer, and cuter than the photos can ever convey! So charming, with a new comfy blue sofa instead of the futon shown in the VRBO photos. Omg, and clothes hangers and HOOKS galore! FINALLY a rental with enough places to hang everything! The wifi is working great, and the 2 decks are perfect. Flowers in pots all around, and a really well-stocked kitchen w/SHARP KNIVES! Fantastic. The ONLY thing that would have made it even better would be to have some screens on the windows and especially the patio door. It was the perfect temp for opening up the house, but only the bedroom has screens on the windows. But a fabulous place in a gorgeous location, and we hope to stay longer next time! I was going to include some photos but the site is not letting me upload them.

Cabin on the lake

Beautiful cabin. But it is very remote. Nothing within miles. I had no cell service, which being from SC we had no idea where to go up there. I discovered that there was no WIFI. When I reached out to Brenda, said they could get it fixed next week. Brenda also reminded me it is an amenity, not guaranteed. There is no landline. I would hate to have am emergency, no way to call for help at that cabin when WiFi is down. I disagreed on WIFI as an amenity, Brenda called VRBO and had us thrown out. Gave us our money back. But, we had no place to go. She said not her problem. For a premier host, her skills at dealing with folks is questionable. We had an hour to get out. Beware. Don’t ask about local channels, that was unthinkable. It was just a question, thought we were missing something on the remote. We were very unhappy.
