About this house rental

Hurricane Helaine Update: Our home is fully back up and running, and businesses in the area are open and ready to welcome you. Many reservations were canceled due to uncertainty about when services would be restored, but crews have worked diligently, and we are now back online. We have prime dates available for both the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday seasons. Watauga Lake Vacations offers the perfect getaway for relaxation and adventure, and we’d love to have you come stay with us and experience the charm of our community once again!

Enjoy stunning Watauga Lake views from this beautiful home nestled in a quiet neighborhood. This retreat offers kayak, paddleboard, and shared dock access in a serene cove. Relax on the deck as you rock your worries away, or unwind on the porch swing by the fire pit. Take in the sunset, float around the peaceful cove, or bring a boat (or rent one from a nearby marina) and explore over 180 miles of shoreline. Hosted by Christie & Donaven at Watauga Lake Vacations, River Rock Retreat is the perfect place to relax, unwind, and make lasting memories.
