Cabin on the lake
Beautiful cabin. But it is very remote. Nothing within miles. I had no cell service, which being from SC we had no idea where to go up there. I discovered that there was no WIFI. When I reached out to Brenda, said they could get it fixed next week. Brenda also reminded me it is an amenity, not guaranteed. There is no landline. I would hate to have am emergency, no way to call for help at that cabin when WiFi is down. I disagreed on WIFI as an amenity, Brenda called VRBO and had us thrown out. Gave us our money back. But, we had no place to go. She said not her problem. For a premier host, her skills at dealing with folks is questionable. We had an hour to get out. Beware. Don’t ask about local channels, that was unthinkable. It was just a question, thought we were missing something on the remote. We were very unhappy.

Long Weekend
The cabin was very cute, hot tub was great. One of the main reasons we booked was for the fire pit however it was completely out of propane so we couldn’t use it. There was also only 1 cushion for the two chaise lounge chairs. There is also a bee and wasp problem on the back deck which is unfortunate for someone who is allergic like myself. Overall a nice secluded property.

Relaxing getaway in beautiful spot
This was a truly relaxing and lovely getaway. The surroundings are absolutely beautiful and it is quiet and peaceful at the house. The lower deck with the lounge chairs was a perfect morning and evening spot to relax and enjoy the lake. The hot tub was clean, as was everything else in the house. The host was easy to get ahold of and communicated clearly. A great place to stay! One thing to think about - the space, especially in the bedroom, is small. The pictures reflect this quite well, just make sure you're good with that and you will have a wonderful time!

Stay at Watuga
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Wonderful location and private. Was able to park out boat/trailer and felt very safe to leave it as we ventured out. The host was very accommodating and returned our call/messages quickly. I would mention the phone service is poor and the road leading down to the house was rough.

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!

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.
