Cozy River Home

This property was exactly as listed. As soon as we walked in it felt like home. It was cozy, and very clean. It had everything we needed except food. Seeing the wild geese every morning in the river was extremely relaxing. We came for the bristol race and the drive was easily about 25 minutes. Would rent again.

Peaceful and friendly

The house was very well equipped and spotlessly clean. We enjoyed sitting on the porch watching the river in front of us, and waved back at the friendly folks who drove past. We had a very nice time and look forward to coming back soon. Our friends who stayed with us commented that as soon as she walked into the house, she felt at home.

Quiet and Relaxing Weekend Getaway

We came for the races in Bristol for the weekend. The home was charming and inviting. The bed was so comfortable! The waterway in front of the house was calming and relaxing. The view was beautiful. We thought the old Texaco station next door was so cool. We sat outside at night and listened to the water and sounds of nature. It was so good for the soul. The host was very responsive! We are already planning to come back next year since we had a wonderful time!

Nice, big and clean

We stayed over Thanksgiving to see family in Elizabeton and had a very nice experience. The home is large enough, the master bed was comfortable and everything was very clean. The property next door must have been an old gas station which was not anything to look at but the river across the street was beautiful and your just down the road from Wautuga Lake which was gorgeous. Communication with the owner was very quick and we had everything we needed. The pictures on the listing were accurate. I would stay there again if I visit.

Fabulous Cabin / Location

My husband and I stayed at Misty Waters for a week - it is located close by for kayaking the Watauga River. The mornings and evenings were my favorite - sitting on the porch enjoying the cool breeze of the river - priceless. The cabin was very well maintained and Angela was a great hostess.

This country house is perfect for a quiet getaway. The views are beautiful and the lovely neighbor is the nicest person ever. I wish I had more time to talk to her because I loved hearing the history of the location. The inside of the house was so nice & updated. We had everything we needed.
