Cabin on the River
Property was amazing! Very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Property was exactly as listed. Feels very secluded and private, but close to grocery store and many restaurants. Would definitely stay here again. This is our third stay and cant wait to come back.

Fabulous location
My teenagers and I enjoyed our stay here. It is a perfect location, both close town, yet nice and private. The river is gorgeous. The hike to Laurel Falls was beautiful and we chartered a fishing boat on the Watauga lake. We will return. Thank you!!

Private Oasis
The property was perfect. Came for the race at BMS, and the commute to the track was easy and simple. The cabin was exactly as described. Private, clean and well stocked with whatever we needed. Very easy communication with owner. We had a very busy weekend with not alot of time to spend in cabin. Hopefully we can come back for a weekend of relaxation to enjoy the beautuful views.

Cute small cabin
Very close to where we wanted to be in Elizabethton. Clean and well maintained. Lots of beds but only one small bathroom. For the location and the price, I would stay there again.

Nothing like going home
We stayed here for the weekend. A yearly trip with my daughter. We decided to rent a VRBO instead of a hotel. And we are all glad we did. We had a wonderful time and we had everything we needed available to us in the cabin. Would definitely recommend. Its cozy and close to town. Was so nice waking up and sitting on the porch and enjoying the beautiful Watauga river. Next year's trip will be booked to stay here again for sure!

Nature Lover’s Delight!
This cabin is well organized, very clean, and beautifully decorated! The front porch was our favorite room. We spent hours there watching the abundant wildlife and listening to the sounds of the Watauga River. . The owner was tremendously helpful with our novice fly fishing efforts, and clearly cares about the quality of the property and the experience of his guests. This is one of the best rentals we’ve ever had. We also enjoyed antiquing in downtown Elizabethton and exploring the Sycamore Shoals historic state park. Outstanding!

This getaway was just what we needed. The cabin was comfy and the view was amazing. Great fishing off the bank or wading to flyfish. We enjoyed having a fire each night and roasting marshmellows.
