NEVER BEEN TO WATAUGA LAKE

Watauga Lake is an extremely beautiful and clean recreational lake (3rd cleanest in the country) located in the Cherokee National forest with 105 miles of shoreline. More than half of the lake is mountainous national forest and cannot be developed, so its really naturally beautiful and not crazy overpopulated with boats. This hidden gem is known to be one of the most beautiful lakes on the east coast. Watauga lake is great for boating, jet-skiing, tubing, skiing/wakeboarding, fishing, swimming, kayaking etc.

Downstream of the dam is a very popular whitewater rafting area as most of the local companies in TN and NC bring their patrons here. Hiking is also very popular as the Appalachian trail and a couple of small waterfalls are nearby. This property is also close to attractions in Boone, Banner Elk and Blowing Rock, NC and also attractions in eastern TN.

We have great sunny summers with no mosquitoes and beautiful fall colors when the leaves change. In the winter time, skiing is a popular option at nearby Sugar and Beech Mountain. This is a spectacular mountain and lake getaway.
Stair notice: Nestled in a scenic mountainous location, this charming vacation rental offers the perfect lakeside retreat. Please note that the property features approximately 15 steps leading to the front door, and additional steps down to the dock. As with most properties on the lake, the terrain offers a bit of a climb and descent, making it a great option for guests who appreciate nature and don't mind a little extra effort. Please consider these features when booking.
Rural Location Notice:
Our property is located in a very rural area. Cell service may be spotty. Local services such as maintenance, repairs, or emergency help can be limited and slower to respond. If an unexpected issue arises during your trip (such as power outages, weather impacts, or pest encounters, etc), we recommend checking out early if the issue affects your comfort. We do not offer refunds tor trip related interruptions, delays or inconveniences outside of our control. We strongly encourage guests to purchase travel insurance.

    My spouse and I went for some R&R to fish and hike and just enjoy nature. Great house with amazing natural light and views ! Location right on the lake was just what we needed.

    Beautifully decorated house, with lots of windows and outdoor spaces to enjoy the views of the lake. It is on a “finger” of the lake, so there is virtually no boat traffic. Very peaceful and quiet. Property manager was very responsive.

    I had great concern with the condition of the steps leading down to the front door. It would appear they have shifted. The slope is unsafe and the whole staircase is leaning. I can provide pictures if you like. I am a retired Fire Code Official from NC, and I don't think that stair would pass inspection. The kitchen does not have an exhaust fan, which led to a nuisance activation of the smoke detector in the dining area, when we used our cappuccino machine. Later, the same detector went into battery fail, and we had to remove the batteries to get it to shut up. Mattresses were hard as a rock. The gas grill was used up and rusted. Only one burner in the grill would light. We really couldn't take advantage of the lake access... too many steps for our age group.The place WAS quiet and clean. The scenery was outstanding. With a little attention, it could be much better.Jenelle was very nice and did call us back regarding what to do with the smoke detector. You can reach me at my email.Thanks,Terry

    Really loved this property, the beds were comfortable and I’m thankful we were allowed to bring our pets. Great proximity to the wineries for a little getaway after being on the lake. Loved that there was a kayak and Lilly pad to float on. The only con was that the deck looked a lot nicer in the photos, none of the sitting areas were inviting and were pretty dirty and needed a little tlc but the floating dock was clean and we just brought camping chairs down there which was totally fine.

    What a great week! The house was the cleanest pet friendly house we have ever stayed in. The host was extremely helpful making sure we had everything we needed. There were plenty of cozy blankets and the beds are super comfy! We enjoyed our stay so much, we extended our visit an extra day! We would highly recommend this house to anyone wanting to come and enjoy the lake. We would absolutely rent this house again.
