Watauga Lake Home! Hot tub, kayaks, Slip access & Mountain View!

The mountain chalet is a 3 level home and has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths
• 1st floor Master bedroom has a King and full bath
• 2nd floor master has queen and full bath
• 3rd level bedroom has two twin beds, a loft with two beds and a kids hide away with one bed
• The 1st and 2nd level both have gas fireplaces

It doesn’t get prettier than this. One of our guests, described Watauga Lake as Lake Geneva in the NorthEast corner of Tennesee. Our house sits atop of the mountains in Appalachia at 4500 feet. Because we are in the Cherokee National Forest, there are very few homes on the lake which makes the views prettier than normal. In addition, the lake gets warm early in the season. You can swim from April through late October. It is a short walk to the private marina and gazebo, where there is a private covered marina; Fish Springs will bring a rental boat to an open slip for you if you'd like or you can bring one yourself. In the winter, it is an amazing home located 20 miles from a handful of skiing mountains including Sugar, Beech, and Appalachian. Our home, completed in late November 2009, looks like something straight out of a movie with driftwood trees inside the house as well as indoor and outdoor water falls. You can be busy every minute, or simply sit by the water's edge and relax.

Family Vacation
Pros: We were amazed at the detail and workmanship in the cabin. The cabin was almost perfect for our stay. At one point, we had 6 adults and 4 children under the age of 5 staying in the cabin. We all had plenty of room and thoroughly enjoyed our time together. Tom responded to several issues at check-in in a timely manner. The flowering planters were a nice touch! We saw lots of wildlife, including a family of black bears. The fire pit was perfect for s’mores and family memories. The grill was very convenient and we used it often. The rockers, hammock and outdoor games were welcomed. The directions Tom gave made it easy to find the cabin. We are very glad to have had the boat slip available and thankful that Tom suggested reserving a boat early. The lake is absolutely gorgeous as we spent most days on/in it! Cons: We arrived about 30 minutes after check-in time, as requested by Tom, and contractors were still working and worked for another hour or so. Upon arrival, we found the refrigerator, freezer, oven, and general living areas in need of a good cleaning. There was no vacuum available for guests. (The housekeeper left hers for our use!) During our month long stay the construction crew showed up at the cabin twice, once with a two hour notice and one time without any notice. We found this to be an inconvenience.

Beautiful as always
This was the third year that we have stayed in this beautiful cabin. My family and I love it. We usually stay at the lake more but this year we just relaxed and enjoyed the cabin. The hot tub is amazing, the scenery is gorgeous. The cabin had everything that we needed including peace and quiet. It is so comfy and just feels like home. Tom is a wonderful host and checks to make sure you’re checked in and made it safely. We have never had an issue staying there so there has never been a need to reach out to him. The cabin is clean, well equipped, and just everything that my family and I need for a week away.
