Nice Cabin in Rural Setting
This is a pretty cabin in a very rural setting near the Watauga river. It has a lot of windows and we enjoyed watching the cows across the street, and we also saw baby lambs. The long mountain views are awesome - we saw them covered in snow!The inside of the cabin is nice and new; although minimally decorated. The beds were very comfortable; everyone enjoyed them.One interesting aspect of the cabin was the flies. It was strange seeing so many of them in the winter with temps in the teens. I suppose they're hibernating nearby. But in any case, there were many flies inside the cabin. Thankfully, they had plug in devices that attracted and killed them. But we swept up flies almost daily. Can't hardly imagine what it would be like in the summer. Maybe it's from the cows across the street, IDK.Anyway, a few ideas to make the stay even better for guests, and get to a "Premier Host" level:A few throw blankets in the living room. It gets chilly with all those windows. A few spare pillows in the bedrooms.Glass drinkware. At LEAST one set! It's no fun drinking out of plastic cups for Christmas dinner. A set of four or six GLASS wine glasses.More hand towels and kitchen towels. One dish towel for a week stay with cooking and cleaning in the kitchen is just not sufficient. One hand towel for each bathroom was also insufficient.I think this cabin is mostly meant for fishermen on the Watauga, but it could be much more with a few changes. We enjoyed our stay!

Love this place!
Absolutely the most relaxing trip! The cabin size and the amenities were perfect. Considering the devastation of the hurricane to East Tennessee, we were so worried about the trip. The host was very helpful on different things we could do and even have snap shots for the directions. It was a fabulous time! Thank you so much!! The communication was spot on for every concern or question. I would recommend this place to anyone that is looking to get away and relax!!

Great property & Great host
The house is fabulous. The lot is huge. Plenty of entertainment inside and out. River access is close but not the safest by foot. We found that driving and parking at one of the boat ramps was better and safer. 2 min drive. No icemaker which is fine but ice trays would have been an easy remedy. The grill is nice, we used it for burgers. There was not a grill cleaning brush or grill utensils; again easy remedy. Overall we had a blast, my boys did not want to leave.

Beautiful cabin
We were impressed with this cabin. It was very clean, new, and nicely decorated. The host was helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. It is located on the outskirts of Elizabethton, in a little area called “dog town”. It is easy to get to, paved roads, pretty views. The cabin is kind of close to the road. Be careful because lots of people fly down the back roads in this area. But beautiful yard and views. We enjoyed our stay and would stay there again if ever in the area.

Beautiful home, wonderful getaway
The house was very clean and nice. We had an easy check in process and the owner was pleasant. The only issue we had was a water leak in one of the bedrooms with a queen bed. We couldn’t sleep in the bed one of the nights we were there, and we were unable to use the upstairs shower/tub one day as well. I notified the owner and he wasn’t able to get someone to fix it until after our check out day/time, but he was very nice about it. Overall, I would recommend this property, no bed for one night and not having the extra shower was a little inconvenient for our last day there

Beautiful home
This house was beautifully put together and immaculate. Very cozy and clean. We had a full house of 11 people (adults and kids). Great location for us as it wasn’t far from so many different things we were doing amongst Tennessee and North Carolina. Great scenery just surrounding you outside with beautiful mountains and farm animals. We would def stay again. We had great communication with the homeowner as well, very nice guy.

Beautiful brand new log cabin.
High quality construction, beautiful bathrooms and kitchen. Nice floor plan. Cows are right across the street in a farm setting. Not very private, but there’s not a lot of traffic in this area. The river for great fishing is right down the street and Watauga lake is just a few miles away. As a seasoned Elizabethton area VRBO aficionado, definitely worth a lot more than he’s asking for the daily rental.

Great location and comfortable stay.
Great weekend getaway spot. Awesome views and location close to the airport and town. We flew in just for a couple nights and Brian was good at communicating and recommendations. The cabin is new construction so everything is pristine. Everything was setup nice and had everything we needed. Kitchen is fully stocked with all the dishes and utensils. Has a traditional coffee pot, even a couple filters and a bag of coffee. Comfortable linens, board games, two big smart tvs with good WiFi. Big wraparound porch with a grill. Would definitely stay again.

This cabin was absolutely beautiful. Brand new and spotless! Plenty of room in the house for a large group. We were even visited by a mama deer and her two fawns in the huge backyard one night! The area is quiet and peaceful with amazing windows and a great view. Check in and check out were seamless and Brian was very communicative and helpful with great suggestions. We had a great time and felt like we were living in luxury in the country!
