Comfortable Condo on the Lake

AmyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Eric’s place was the perfect getaway to get to know the area! The condo is located on the water, no water views but easy access to the water and boat dock. We brought a kayak and it was easy to use the dock to put in and explore the lake! The place was clean, comfortable and provided all the basic needs! Would highly recommend!!

Banner Elk 1BR on Lovely Resort

SherryRating, 5 stars28 months ago
A great location with almost immediate access to skiing and hiking trails! We didn’t use the amenities while there but did see many families enjoying them. A 15 minute ride to Boone and all that area offers was a plus. This was a quiet, corner location with a soothing view of a pond on the grounds out all of the windows. A good sized space to wind down after a full day of adventures!

Krew’s Quarters-Lakefront Sleeps4 on South Holston

JacobRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We enjoyed our stay! The space was very clean and the location was wonderful. The view from the deck was beautiful. Another plus is that we were able to pull our pontoon on the shore and leave it for the weekend. Kayla was a phenomenal host - very friendly, welcoming, helpful and responsive! Would recommend!

CarleeRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had a great stay with Jamie. The location is close to everything you’d want to experience in Boone. Jamie was proactive and sent access information and instructions ahead of time. Jamie checked in several times and was ready to answer any questions that popped up. We loved how cozy this spot felt. Perfect for a weekend getaway.

Beautiful Farm House Apartment

DawnRating, 5 stars22 months ago
I had a lovely two week stay at Eliber's listing. Everything was exactly as described. It is very close to downtown Burnsville and easy access to the main road but also quiet enough that deer were in the yard. Eliber was very responsive and answered any questions I had quickly.

We loved our quiet nights on the river with Kerry. She is a safe warm and super friendly host with the most picaresque mountain homestead. The space is cozy, comfy and clean.

Secluded Lodge Overlooking River - $0 Cleaning Fee

SheilaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This is a dream come true. Peaceful, secluded, spacious. Absolutely everything you could ever need. Alicia was easy to communicate with. She checked in on me to be sure all was ok and even left snackies upon my arrival and coffee ready to go! I watched deer, turkey and cows on the deck. the pictures cannot possibly do this gorgeous home justice. It's breath taking! Would highly recommend this lodge to stay at! Loved it!

KiannaRating, 5 stars13 months ago
This was a perfect spot to stay for my family. It is literally right across from the river. The place was stocked with everything we could possibly need. We went fishing with the two fishing poles and tackle we found. Very clean. Quick responses from the host. I definitely recommend this Airbnb.

Skipping Stones Getaway - Watauga Lake Dock & Hot

JolynneRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a truly wonderful stay at Skipping Stones Getaway with our family of five. From the moment we arrived, it felt like a peaceful retreat—surrounded by beautiful views and the kind of quiet that instantly helps you unwind. Christie and Donaven have thought of everything. The house was fully stocked with all the essentials (and then some). From extra phone charging cables to those little items you might forget to pack, it was clear they’ve put a lot of care and attention into making guests feel at home. We spent our days out on the lake kayaking, soaking up the calm and beauty of the surroundings, and our evenings enjoying quality time together around the fire. It was the perfect mix of fun and relaxation. Skipping Stones Getaway is the kind of place you want to return to. Highly recommend for anyone looking to slow down, recharge, and make lasting memories in a truly lovely setting.

Riverfront home on the South Holston River

ForrestRating, 5 stars8 months ago
This was our second time staying at this property in the main house, and it was absolutely fantastic again. I plan to come back again whenever I can find the time. The hosts are very kind and helpful, and there isnt a thing I would change about the house! I only wish I had more time there.

Lakefront Sunrise Deck w/ Boat Slip, Washer/Dryer

ElizabethRating, 5 stars20 months ago
Renee's place was a gorgeous haven in Johnson City during our time at the National Storytelling Festival--the home away from home, with a stunning lake, exactly what we needed. Everything was exactly as advertised, only a 20 minute winding drive from Jonesborough, but you never wanted to leave when you saw the sun meet the horizon and reflect across that glassy water. Thanks so much, Renee, we had such a wonderful time revisiting Appalachia.

Chapel Cove Lake Condo

LynetteRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This home was perfect for a visit to the tri-cities area. It was so welcoming and every little detail was clearly carefully considered for the comfort of guests. Even the check-out requirements were exceedingly reasonable and not the least difficult or burdensome. This Boone Lake neighborhood is off the main road enough to feel secluded but close enough to make traveling to anywhere in the area convenient. We had a terrific, though short, visit and would definitely want to stay again on our next visit. One of the best Airbnb's we have visited - I would (and did to friends in the area) highly recommend.

The place was great for skiing at Sugar Mountain. Everything was good but the floor was bit dirty, our white socks turned black within 5 minutes of walking around. Other than that, everything was perfect!
