Super Clean and Comfortable

This property looks brand new. It was extraordinarily clean and very well stocked with everything you could possibly need - including firewood and fishing rods! We had four adults in our party and the place was very comfortable. One thing to note, the bed in the primary bedroom is VERY tall and may be a challenge for anyone with a physical disability. That said, there are two twin beds in the other bedroom that are normal height.

Relaxing

This cabin is beautiful and very comfortable: the attention to detail is above and beyond my expectations. Other cabins we have stayed at had bare minimum in amenities, Mark and Stephanie thought of everything! If you forgot something, they have you covered! Very clean and comfy. We really enjoyed the River in the morning and ended our day just relaxing until dark. Quiet and peaceful, best night sleep! Tons to do! I suggest Watauga Winery, it’s beautiful. We didn’t want to leave! Love Elizabethton, this will be where we retire to!

This place is beautiful, very well maintained, clean, and has everything you need for your stay. The owner is extremely friendly. Having the river as your back yard is picturesque. Had a fire in the pit and even did a bit of fishing. We will be back.
