Beautiful Waterfront Home on Watauga River

Brand new to VRBO June 1st 2023. Gorgeous and completely remodeled waterfront home on the beautiful Watauga River. The house was completely remodeled in 2023 with all new windows, life proof flooring, granite countertops, appliances, new black metal roof, new interior and exterior paint, new composite front door, new lights and fans, landscaping, etc. This is a $500K immaculate home right on the river. You might stay somewhere cheaper but you will not stay anywhere nicer in this area. Please look at our cabin VRBO #2196043 if you need something smaller yet just as beautiful, its really made for 2 people but will sleep 4 if needed.

The house includes a brand new 12' x 12' Trex river dock with stainless steel cables for railing, so as not to diminish the river views. There is also a brand new private boat ramp for those coming in to fish or kayak. Excellent place for a large group or a small group and all the comforts of home. The river deck and mountain deck will be furnished with furniture (not pictured yet), and a grill on the mountain deck. You can fish nearly 300 feet of the river along the property bank. In the summer months you will see lots of rafters, kayaks, and drift boats going by. The house is located on the main road to Wilbur Dam, and is 3 miles downstream from the dam, and not in a floodplain. The back yard has a large chainlink fence for your pets containment and safety, with direct access from the french doors off of the mountain deck.

From the front of the house all you see is the beautiful river flowing by, from the sides of the house and back all you see is the beautiful Holston Mountain Range. The house has brand new appliances, furniture, mattresses, etc. Incredible entertainment package with Direct TV and a 75" Ultra 4K Samsung in the den and a 65" Samsung Ultra 4k in the primary bedroom. Bose wave radio. Front load washer and dryer for long stays. The front porch will have rocking chairs. More pictures to come. Book now for your next getaway in a spectacular setting. Mountains and river in all directions, yet only 10 minutes to town.

Mothers Day Retreat
My adult children and I celebrated Mother's Day by fly fishing and hanging out together. The property is perfect for both! It’s basically on the river itself and is well-equipped and comfortable. Excellent experience.

Graduation Trip
The house is beautiful and we really enjoyed our stay. Home is close (20 to 25 min drive) to ETSU and given we were there for a graduation it was really convenient. We were extremely busy so did not get to do a lot in the area but there appeared to be a lot to do.

One of the best Vrbos I've had the pleasure of staying in. The house is fantastic. The view of the river is great, the cleanliness was amazing. Communication with the owner was never lacking. We will for sure schedule a return visit!

The Blue House
Very exceptional VRBO east of Elizabethton. Every detail of this home is modern and inviting. The host is very engaged in making sure our stay was comfortable and worry free. We weren't able to take advantage of the many outdoor amenaties because of the weather. Maybe next time!

Beautiful Home with amazing views of the river and mountains!
Thank you Mike for accommodated my family on such short notice. The house was very comfortable and beautifully decorated for Christmas. The views from the front porch and deck are Amazing. No fishing this visit, but come spring and summer this would be the ideal rental with boat and dock access.

House/Host review
Home was clean and very accommodating. Host had cleaners steam the floors the day of our arrival because he knew we had babies. Everything was exactly as advertised. We were very pleased. Would definitely stay again.
