About this cabin rental
The view is pure magic! Just 20 minutes from Bristol and the TriCities Regional Airport. With 2 bedrooms, a loft with a full size bed and a sofa bed and 2.5 bathrooms - the cabin has been thoughtfully positioned to achieve a downriver view of the Watauga River. The view is visible from the front doors to the massive 16 foot stretch of sliding glass back doors. The house is tastefully furnished in an upscale mountain house fashion with custom log and stone accents throughout the interior and exterior of the home. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a huge island that seats 4, plus another 6 at the dining room table. This home follows the open concept plan with kitchen, living, and dining open to one another all with comfortable well maintained furnishings. The master bedroom suite is also located downstairs with king-size bed, walk-in closet and full master bath with both jacuzzi and walk-in shower. The upstairs features a large loft living room with full size bed tucked away in the dormer area and sofa bed. There is a 2nd bedroom with adjoining 3 piece bathroom and a small office tucked away in the back of the loft when you just need to get a little work done. There is a sofa bed in the loft as mentioned as well as 2 power home theater chairs. There is a large projector screen and projector Roku (Netflix) in the loft. There is a 42 inch TV in the upstairs second bedroom with Roku (Netflix) and a 46" TV in the Living Room equipped with a Roku device. The large 40' x 16' porch is equipped with rocking chairs, outdoor dining table and chairs and a hammock plus the incredible view of the river. Watch the fly fisherman and kayakers navigate their way over the shoals. There is a walkway to the river plus a room size flat rock to fish from on this beautiful trophy section of the river. This cabin serves the guest looking for a more quiet retreat. This house is not recommended for children or pets due to the depth and swiftness of the river at this location but pets are considered and older children are ok - just contact owner. This cabin is within walking distance of the Watauga River Cabins and directly across the river from the Watauga River Lodge and Outfitter. The caretaker lives on the property in a separate dwelling near the road and will verify number and ages of guests for safety concerns as well as the terms of the rental agreement. Free wifi is provided. The cabin is located about 5 miles from I-26 off the HIghway 91 exit. The cabin rests halfway between Johnson City and Elizabethton in the Central Community.

You won’t find a nicer more equipped house on the river. Close to everything, yet still private.

Third time guests at this really well appointed cabin perfectly placed by a rushing river next to a woods yet only minutes to a small town or a larger city…your choice! Watauga Lake less than 30 minutes and dozens of great hiking areas with waterfalls and gorgeous views. Beautiful well taken care of home.

We've stayed at this cabin numerous times and it never gets old! We love it! There are many nice amenities, but the main draw for us is the back porch. The view of the river, the sound of the river and the chirping birds, the summer locusts...it's incredible! We love all the songbirds and have fun trying to identify them. One year there was a rare bird. This year we had hummingbirds! Enjoyed the fire ring one evening, perfect weather.
The beds sleep good, the showers are great. Having a set of matching wine glasses for six or eight would be nice.
No pictures do this place justice, but I wish VRBO would let me upload a few because you would like it!

The cabin was no less than first class. Very peaceful and relaxing location. I had two young teenagers that wore life jackets every time they when down fishing and appreciate the heads up regarding the swift water. Thanks for sharing your place.

Best appointed house you will find anywhere! Everything you could possibly want is in the pantry, including wonderful, pots, pans, dishes, etc. The river is spectacular and the views are beautiful off the back porch with spans the whole width of the house. The pictures don’t do it justice.

Really nice cabin on a beautiful bend of the Watagua river with a amazing back porch view.
Not real private with people within earshot of the home.
The lovely view of the river definitely was the best part of the home and I would definitely recommend it.

We loved our stay. Home, river, and property were all so beautiful. Waking up and watching the river was much needed to decompress from everyday life. Thank you, Linda!

Absolutely beautiful cabin with wonderful views and scenery! Pictures honestly do not do it justice. The shower, back porch, and the river view were my favorite. Everything was nearly perfect! Only suggestion I have is adding a TV to the master! Hope to stay again in the future.

This property is idyllic. The cabin is very well built and nicely furnished, while still being rustic. And the fact they are kind enough to allow pets is amazing. We feel grateful that this family shares their wonderful home with others. The online photos do not do it justice at all. I wish VRBO would allow us to upload photos with the review because I have some amazing ones! We have visited twice, and we will be back! It truly IS Watauga River Magic!

This was a lovely weekend vacation! The house was very nice and clean and Linda was very helpful and communicative. There is no view of the river like this one! We loved the feel of the house, the large kitchen, the fire pit, and the seclusion. We highly recommend staying here.

Absolutely Perfect
Pictures just don’t do it justice! Such a beautiful house and property. We didn’t want to ever leave. Great big yard for the dog to play. The house was not only beautiful and beautifully decorated, but very well stocked with everything we needed and more. But that back porch - fabulous! Comfy cozy place to enjoy the beautiful river and listen to nature.

Found Peace
Even though we weren’t far from home, it was so nice to get away from the everyday. Cabin was perfect! It was so peaceful just to sit on the porch and listen to the river. Especially the one rainy day, a double whammy with the river and rainfall!

Long weekend getaway
My wife and I have stayed in many cabins and yours is by far the best cabin we have rented. From the check in to the amenities in the cabin it was all first class. The view and tranquility made for a very relaxing weekend and we are already planning another trip so we can spend an entire week in August. My wife and I grew up and the Tri-Cities and have never been to that area of Watauga, but loved it. I am also recommending the cabin to friends so they can experience the cabin and area. We look forward to our next stay!!
