LOOKING FOR A ROMANTIC GETAWAY? ITS ALL HERE. PRIVATE, SECLUDED LAKEFRONT HEAVEN

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.

Lakeside Haven's indoor space is 850 sq. ft. We have an outdoor living space that consists of a large 4 person Hot Tub just outside the door on the main upper deck. Our Hot Tub is drained scrubbed and refilled after every guest leaves and we use very minimal chemicals. So no human soup to sit in or dangerous harsh chemicals for our guests. We have a gas grill and a large Patio table and Umbrella. On the lower deck you will find 2 very nice lounge chairs for reading or napping in the shade, between the two lounge chairs you will find a gas fire pit to enjoy at night. Follow the footpath down to the water to find the dock and if you choose that is where your pontoon boat will await you. From there you can boat or fish to your hearts content from daylight to dark if you choose.

It was so peaceful and homey. I didn’t want to leave. Seeing the moon reflecting on the lake was beautiful. The cabin was clean and cozy. Would definitely recommend staying at this cabin. Plus there is fish in the lake. Not all lakes actually have fish.

Cute, comfortable cabin for two.
My wife and I celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary in this comfy little cabin on Watauga lake. The hot tub was fully functional and clean as described. The bed was super comfortable. Cabin had everything we needed and nothing we didn’t. The area was very peaceful. A couple very nice wineries are minutes away. Would come back to this place again!

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.

Relaxing get away!
This was just what my husband and I needed. It was a perfect place to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. If you're looking for somewhere to enjoy the water, boat, kayak, or swim and relax in the evening this is the perfect place. One thing I suggest if you don't want to go back out, stop on your way in to get groceries, the closest town with a grocery store is Mountain City about a 20 min drive. It's a beautiful drive though. :)

Relaxing stay!
We stayed for a week and really enjoyed the tranquility at the cabin. We boated for several days on the lake (rented Brenda’s pontoon). Was able to fish right off the dock and loved the lower deck where we sat in the afternoons and enjoyed a cocktail. Cabin was very clean and we plan to stay at their other cabin next year!

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.

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.

Lake Heaven
This is a "tiny house"--absolutely perfect for a couple, with a rare and wonderful access to Watauga Lake and a lower deck right over the water where we spent most of our time. Everything you need is provided, including a great hot tub, which I had forgotten all about until we got there. It, too, overlooks the lake. Another couple joined us twice just for the day, as they live not far from the cabin, and the four of us chilled out. If you like wine, the wines at Watauga Lake Winery and Villa Nove Vineyards are really surprisingly good, and the view at the vineyard is outstanding. We were fortunate to have nearly perfect weather. While swimming, we were startled by inquisitive minnows! We have a smaller SUV and were able to turn it around in the driveway, so as to avoid backing out. A larger car wouldn't be able to do that. Our friends parked up by the road. The coffee pot uses ground coffee, not pods, so be sure to bring it if you drink coffee. Loved our stay.

A great renting experience.
This property is a neat little gem on the lake and the owner was very helpful and responsive throughout the whole experience. It is a very nicely laid out small cabin with a great view of the lake. The family really enjoyed the use of the kayaks, jacuzzi and the ability to fish off of the dock. If you are in to cat fishing you are nearly guaranteed to pull in a big one off that dock but bring a strong pole with a strong line. They are big ones. Brenda was very helpful throughout the rental process and the instructions she gave for everything at the cabin were perfect. The family loved the place and if we end of back in the area would definitely rent again.

This tiny cabin was perfect for two. Everything was very clean and the amenities were so nice. The furniture was comfortable and we had everything needed to enjoy a long weekend. The only downside was the shower. My partner is 6'8" so the small shower was a bit of a challenge for him, but we saw it in the pictures and knew it was going to be a risk. Everything else was so well thought out. Thanks so much for allowing us to stay here!

This is one of our favorite stays ever. It just might be the most peaceful place we have ever visited. So relaxing and yet so much to see and do in the area. Brenda and Tim are fantastic hosts, and having access to kayaks, the pontoon boat, and the hot tub made this visit extra special. We rode the lake stem to stern and didn’t see another spot we liked better. Being up in the trees with lovely cool breezes was magical! We were so comfortable in the cabin. It had everything we needed and the two decks and dock area were amazing! Thank you Tim and Brenda for having us!

What a wonderful place to celebrate our annivesary
Brenda and Tim have a gem of a place perched over a secluded finger of Watauga Lake. Everything was as expected and Brenda and Tim maintained excellent communication to make sure we had everything we needed. We recommend splurging for the boat rental. The lake is definitely worth exploring (there are several small cove great for swimming and fishing). We're looking forward to bringing the family back here in the future.
