We had a realy great time at the cabin. Quiet place with great view. Close to a nice vineyard and to a lake access. Highly recommend.

This was an amazing house and a great host. The town was exactly what we were looking for. Very clean

We stayed over Thanksgiving and had a wonderful time some spent visiting friends in TN, some relaxing, doing jigsaw puzzles and watching movies, and some hiking. This was a fabulous venue for it all. Communications with Maxanne about the rental were timely and informative. We felt immediately welcome like family when upon our arrival we found the housekeeper had made us a pie for the holiday! Overall we loved the place and would definitely recommend it!

The views are stunning! Fall colors were at their peak. The cabin was a great place to unplug and enjoy the beauty around us. The local mercantile store has a great home cooked meal and is very close to the cabin. We look forward to returning.

If your goal is to explore Lake Watauga, TN, and surrounding areas, this is the place you want. The home is beautiful and spotlessly clean. The view from the front porch where you WILL have your morning coffee is an ever changing postcard. The location...secluded but easy striking distance to two marinas on the lake where you can and should rent a pontoon boat for a day. You ate within an hour of Grandfather Mountain (awesome hiking and visitor center- don't miss it), Culver's gap where you can hike the appalachain trail and take in amazing vistas, ziplining, whitewater rafting, horseback riding, wineries, Boone, NC for walkable shopping in a college town, Banner Elk for higher end dining and a mountain coasters etc. Etc. Etc. Etc. The cabin is far enough from everything and everyone to where you will feel like you are away from it all, but close enough to so many activities it isn't even funny. The mercantile around the corner was being renovated when we were there, but there is a Dollar General less than 15 minutes away that has all of the basics as far as food etc. Real grocery stores are a but farther, but you can hit them on your way back from day trips to enjoy the area. You'll spend some time in the car going to and from your daily activities, but the miles are on gorgeous, windy country roads with views and wildlife and the time spent behind the wheel is a pleasure. Maxanne was fantastic to deal with, and the cabin awaits you with everything you need to feel like home. We couldn't have possibly enjoyed the house, the area and the rental experience more. Checkout requirements were the easiest we've ever experienced with VRBO. If you seek a beautiful inside and outside, clean, spacious and well appointed home as your base for enjoying all that this area of Tennessee and NC has to offer, look no further. 15 out of 10 in every way. Maybe 20 out of 10 when that morning coffee view of the valley (that you can see from just about everywhere inside the house too) is factored in, because pictures just don't do it any justice at all!

We loved our stay on these amazing 17 acres. The property was exactly as it was advertised - plenty of space for our family of five and our dogs. The house is well furnished with everything we needed from kitchen supplies and equipment to linens and bath towels. Our host, Maxanne, was helpful in the planning of our vacation...full of recommendations and helpful hints. She was extremely responsive to our planning questions and made checkin and checkout very easy. We explored the property as well as did day trips to Bristol, TN, Boone, NC and locally around Watuaga Lake. We would come back in a heartbeat as we made wonderful memories!

This place is wonderful, clean and comfortable. The owner was great to work with and very helpful. The view from the deck is beautiful, but the entire area around Lake Watauga offers stunning scenery. We will be back.

Cabin was clean and very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.

Upon our arrival, we found a big tray of chocolate chip cookies and my favorite, macadamia nut cookies waiting for us. They were delicious. They didn’t last long. Lol. The cabin is beautiful and roomy. We loved the views overlooking a winery, farms and pastures. We loved seeing all the deer on the property on a daily basis. My wife and I enjoyed our morning walks following the driveways throughout the property. This in my opinion is the perfect cabin and location. It’s a short 25 minute drive to Mountain City for groceries and stuff but the drive is beautiful. We really enjoyed our stay. Maxanne always responded quickly to any of our questions. She is a pleasure to rent from. We really enjoyed our stay

Grate get away from everything and everyone! Up in the mountains very peaceful very relaxing.

The house is amazing! Cleanest rental I’ve ever stayed in. The view is stunning! We rented this house for a long weekend destination wedding at a nearby resort. We had five adults and more than enough room. I would love to stay here again! The location is a bit secluded so be prepared to drive up and down twisting roads awhile to get anywhere. But that’s part of the fun too!

This is a great central location to explore the surrounding area; Watauga Lake, Blowing Rock, Abingdon, etc... The cabin is very large and has both a spacious front and back deck. Great for relaxing and watching the fire flies sparkle in the trees. The bonus of the waterfall makes for a very relaxing stay at this cabin in the woods.

Beautifully landscaped. Kitchen well stocked. Beds comfortable, plenty of room. Only disappointments were excitement over Jacuzzi tub only to find out it did not work. Only other problem would not have been a problem if we had known in advance groceries were 45 minutes away.

I loved it there it was so nice me and my kids loved it

This is an absolutely beautiful cabin in an exquisite setting. We loved everything about it. Would recommend it to anyone!!!

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!After visiting Boone, Blowing Rock and Banner Ell one day and skiing at Sugar Mountain another day we truly enjoyed the cabin that was so serene , clean and restful! It was also eye opening to come to see Lake Watauga : it was a sunning lake area!
