Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Watauga Lake

This home is amazing! Gregory and family have put a lot of thought into house amenities and decor. It definitely reflects a labor of love. Only suggestion is the he rethink who he has cleaning for him however we did not let that affect our good time. This home is too amazing. I brought my family here for a weekend and all my grandchildren loved it. I believe they liked the house just as much as Tweetsie Railroad! We were on the deck the first morning we were there and two fighter jets came through the valley almost eye level! Talk about excitement! They were tripping! I know some reviews talk about the drive and Gregory thoroughly explains it in the description to the tee however I think that was apart of the charm! Appeals to the adventurous side of me I suppose! Hands down this place is definitely a must see. Thank you Gregory and family for sharing your home!

We had an amazing time on our romantic getaway at this beautiful Bluff City Airbnb! The hot tub was the perfect place to unwind, especially at night while watching the lightning bugs dance around us pure magic. The decor throughout the home was cozy and stylish, making it feel like a true retreat. We loved the goats and their sweet guardian dog, Bonnie such a fun and heartwarming bonus! The views were stunning, adding to the peaceful vibe of the property. We did have one small issue during our stay, but the host was very responsive and did their best to help, even while out of town, which we truly appreciated. We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing escape, and we’re already hoping to stay again on our next trip if it’s available!

Loved loved loved staying here!! Was so happy to be able to pet goats! The most perfect kitty lives on the property and will politely make you biscuits! The place was so comfortable and cozy. Loved the lightening bugs and trails to the creek, escorted by kitty of course. Host was so down to earth and went out of her way to allow me an early check in! She’s a super woman! Will definitely be back, close to many great hiking spots! The blue hole is a must! Thank you!

What a beautiful oasis for my family, and our senior dog, Lola. It has a huge fenced-in yard, dog treats she loved and a creek she waded in. There's a relaxing grassy area 10 ft across the street with adirondack chairs, a hammock and large swing. You can grill out under the trees, & dip your toes in the water. The front porch has multiple seating areas for reading or enjoying downtime surrounded by some of the most fragrant and colorful flower beds which I'm completely jealous of. Added bonus is having a two car covered garage. What a great find nestled in the Appalachian Mtns. House had spacious bedrooms with updated bathrooms (huge soaking tub) and large flat screen TVs in multiple rooms. So many places to see and enjoy in this area. We will absolutely be back!

We had a great week at Pie in the Sky. The views are spectacular and the home is welcoming. Although there are other homes nearby, the neighborhood feels so peaceful. We enjoyed quiet mornings and evenings on the deck. Options for daytime activities are plentiful in the surrounding area. (Grandfather Mountain, Boone, Blowing Rock, Linville, Asheville) Corinne was very responsive with any questions that we had. Any issues that we had were quickly resolved. The home was well appointed with everything we needed to settle in and make the week easy. We picked up groceries at Lowes - a short drive west. The hot tub was so nice after a long day of hiking. My kids loved the separate lounge area and the cabinet of games. We would love to stay here again.

The cottage was cozy and comfortable. It's in a quiet neighborhood, with private parking just outside the cottage. The owner, Micah, has given a lot of thought to the details to make a stay pleasant -- electrical outlets in the right places, full range of utensils, well-appointed kitchen and bathroom, excellent heating and cooling, comfortable bedding, etc., I had everything I needed right at hand. I was on a fishing trip, and the cottage had plenty of room to handle my gear, which I appreciated. Grocery and restaurants nearby. Most of all, I found this a great place for relaxing after a long day on the stream. Micah is very responsive, answered my few questions promptly, she's nice and very accomodating. I recommend the cottage highly.

Cannot recommend this place enough!! We had a great stay, the location is great and convenient to restaurants as well as Boone and Blowing Rock. The house was pristine and so homey! The hosts were amazing and went above and beyond to make our stay special and extremely accommodating. The house was so clean and comfortable. We loved the outdoor area and being close to the river. It was such a relaxing and enjoyable place to stay. We will definitely be back!!

Kelly and Caleb’s vacation home was an absolute dream for our family! We had the best time and were able to enjoy some peace and quiet and we also enjoyed exploring surrounding areas. The home was cozy, clean, and peaceful.. I loved that it was family friendly!! Thank you both for allowing us to stay!

Amy’s place was perfect! Exactly as shown in photos, had everything we could’ve possibly needed, & she left water bottles on the counter for our arrival :) We had a quick one night stay and Amy’s rental was great for us.

Great location! Minutes from everything, easy check in, and great hosts.

What a gorgeous location! I could have simply sat outside enjoying the views -- which I did quite a bit! But it was also convenient to some great hikes, of which I did one. I only stayed one night, and unfortunately didn't get to meet Warren, but I will definitely be back. Highly recommend!

Paul’s place was the perfect base for some hiking in the area. Paul was a great host. We had everything we needed especially a quiet spot to unwind and rest.

Loved this place and the aesthetic. The living space was immaculately clean, modern, and I loved the pigeon mural. it easily accommodated our group of four, but could easily handle up to eight. As honestly described in the listing, it was a little noisy at night, but given the location, it is to be expected. It really wasn't a bother to me at all. It was a great stay! Thanks for your hospitality! - Jeff

Excellent accomodations and host - will be staying here again next year for our three-day convention. Thanks for a great place to stay, Catherine!

Wonderful home to stay in! it is way bigger than we expected and was perfect after a long day of travel to relax in. Both bedrooms are very comfortable. Cheryl was wonderful and very accommodating for us!

What to write in such a small space! Kevin and Susie are precious folks. We got in late on our first night and Kevin helped carry our things upstairs. And chatted with us for a bit. Susie had made some AMAZING cookies for us. We loved the space of the apartment. It was clean, cozy and just as the pictures portrayed. The bed was so comfortable!!! We will definitely be staying here again. Roan Mountain is our me favorite place and Kevin and Susie have the best place to enjoy it! Thanks for having us ♥️

Simon and Julia are super helpful and kind. The place was just as expected, kitchen was fully equipped, everything was clean - and beautiful views. You can hear the neighbors pretty clear upstairs - but you can’t do much about that - plus it was disclosed in the listing. So overall I give 5 stars to Julia and Simon because THEY were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING - super responsive, I will definitely be returning ❤️ p.s. my bro forgot his wallet in the bnb after we checked out and there was absolutely no issue going back to find it - they are a delightful couple.

Whitney was very personable, couldn’t figure out the gate and she took a personal call without hesitation to help. So close to all the great places in town.we will be back.

Kyle was helpful and responsive. The place was very clean and the decorations were beautiful. My friend and I had a girl’s weekend and wanted different rooms (because we like to sleep in opposite temperature) and this fit us perfectly. We each had our own bathroom and the beds were very comfy. It was nice to have a kitchen and laundry option too. The directions were easy and Banner Elk is a 5 minute walk. The best part was the 180 degree view! I miss it already and didn’t want to leave! There were deer outside our window both days so that was a bonus. We would stay here again for sure!

I can not say enough about this beautiful little gem in the woods! It was so well decorated and all the little thoughtful additions, like a bag of local coffee and heated bed covers were just perfect and exactly what I needed for this get away to reconnect with myself and nature. I barely left the condo, because the view was so spectacular and how cozy the home felt! I was visited by a bunch of different birds on the cute patio where I painted a few of them as I sipped coffee and just listened to the breeze ruffle the leaves or rain shower that softly fell! Definitely hope to return very soon!

This place is in a beautiful area. It's private and quiet surrounded by nature's wonder. Every morning I woke up to a beautiful sunrise on the balcony with my coffee listening to the birds sing. I slept on the sofa bed facing the balcony and it was comfortable. My kids enjoyed the bed in the bedroom. We made breakfast and dinner and enjoyed how comfortable and cozy the ambiance felt in this condo. I took morning walks nearby. Otter falls is nearby and you can hear the creek from the balcony. The condo was very clean and had the basic necessities for our weekend stay. Definitely coming back again.

Loved every bit of this cozy peaceful stay! Would love to come back!

We had a great time staying here, it was cozy and perfect for a mountain getaway. Everything was clean, and the location was great.

We enjoyed our stay! Everything was perfect. we'll definitely be coming back when we visit Johnson City again!
