Mountain House near the Appalachian Trail, Watauga Lake, Bristol, & Johnson City

Hilltop Hideaway is a cozy oasis offering gorgeous valley and mountain views! Grab your coffee and sit for a spell in one of the front porch rockers to listen to the sounds of the surrounding farm life. Unwind after a day on Watauga Lake (10 min), hiking the Appalachia Trail (5 min) or Skiing Beech/Sugar Mtn (35 min)! Enjoy the privacy of the country with easy access to Johnson City (20 min), Banner Elk (30 min), Bristol (30 min) or Elizabethton (10 min).
We are up a “holler” as we say in East TN. After traveling up the gravel drive, porch steps will take you through the front door to an open living room and kitchen with the bedrooms/bathroom down the hallway. Although there is only one bathroom available, the master bedroom offers an additional vanity sink. You can expect to hear the sounds of nature - whether cows and donkeys occasionally during the day, or crickets and cicadas most evenings! There is a small fire pit that guests are welcome to use while practicing fire safety.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker, an ironing board, and a desk.

We had such a wonderful time! The house was perfect for our family's stay! My husband and I traveled with our four kids, ages 7, 4, 2, and 1 and made so many beautiful memories together, soaking up the porch swings, movie night hangs on the cozy couch, and looking at the cows next door were a few of our favorite features! I’d definitely recommend this little spot!

Beautiful views

We loved the property and the home. Great Mountain and farm views. There were so many supplies at the home already prepared for us. We have never stayed anywhere like that before, where so much was thought of for us!! The firepit was nice. My son loved watching the fire and roasting hotdogs and marshmallows. Julie was a wonderful host and always got back to me quickly. Thanks for a great stay and hope to come back again!

The things on front porch blew in the wind all night, two different nights. They banged and made noise all night long.

Excellent stay

Our family of 5 had a great stay. We didn't spend much time at the house since we spent most of our days visiting family nearby, but we felt at home when we returned each evening. We had one issue with the heat on the first night, but Julie was incredibly responsive and even followed up the next day. The home was decorated nicely, and we'd definitely consider staying again when we return to the area.

Nice countryside home

Our family had a nice stay! The home has everything that you could need! Our favorite part was the big front porch that offers great mountain views along with all the sounds of country living! Also, Julie was great to work with and quick to respond to messages!

Just the ticket ❤️

My spouse and I were in town for an unfortunate circumstance and Julie was nothing but supportive and accommodating throughout our entire travel process. The property was quiet and beautiful, absolutely perfect for healing and reflection. I would definitely recommend Julie and her property for a vacation.
