Little piece of heaven

The views were gorgeous. The place was clean and very quaint. The picnic table on the deck was awesome so we could have our meals while looking at the lake and mountains. We will definitely stay here again.

cozy getaway right on the water

Very nice cabin and right on the water with gentle slope to water access. Only a few stairs to living area of cabin so it was easy to access for my wife who had a walking issue at the time of our trip. Nice dock and we watched some fishermen pull in one trout after another while having coffee the next morning on our deck. We got rained out during our trip so we were not able to take advantage of all the water activities we had planned but you cannot control the weather. We had some questions and one issue while at the cabin and management was very responsive. We will return and highly recommend this cabin for a getaway on the water..

Lakefront Getaway

The manufactured home is as depicted. It is small but with a very nice porch and easy water access. The kitchen is very basic. Note that there is not a dishwasher. There is a derelict trailer next door with junk piled up beside it. There is another trailer/cabin on the other side fairly close. The beds were fine (soft) and we enjoyed the grill and canoe. It was tight for 4 adults. The picture doesn't show how close the neighbors are. I think it was expensive for what it is but Wautauga prices are high! We would consider coming back..

Nice, quiet escape

Staying on the lake was great. The fire pit was nice on the cool evenings. My friend and I didn’t spend a lot of time at the house because we had friends in another house up the mountain. However the time we did spend was very good. The views outside are the best part. It is exactly as advertised. I had another friend ask for the information about the house because he wants to go back up and stay there. Needless to say that speaks volumes. I will stay again if the need arises. One more thing. I had a question about something and emailed the managing agency very late one night and I had a reply shortly after. Great customer service!!

Wonderful stay in every way! The cabin was situated in a peaceful place on Lake Watauga, and the red canoe worked great for a pleasant time on the lake. The water temperature was perfect for swimming. The comfortable cabin had everything needed to make the stay a happy one.

We were very satisfied with how clean the cabin was on check in. The kitchen was equipped with what we needed to cook our meals. Enjoyed our morning coffee on the deck gazing over the misty lake. Only downside was we didnt catch any fish.
