8 / 10Excellent·Sep 2025
We enjoyed our time relaxing by the river and on the porch surrounding the house. The hot tub was an amazing way to end our days.
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
This cottage was amazing. We had the best time sitting around the fire pit by the river and kayaking up and down the river, also. The water was so clear, and it was a very nice place to stay. I highly recommend them, and we will definitely be planning to book there again when we are in the area. The stairs leading down to the river are very steep (as mentioned in the posting description), but other than that, it was great.

Property was so adorable! The house is very spacious, well stocked and adorably decorated. The river was a wonderful way to unwind from a busy graduation weekend.

Beautifully remodeled house overlooking a gorgeous scenic bend in the Watauga River--feels remote but is only five minutes from the Bristol Highway in north JC. A rustic modern feel inside, a great bed, and outside, beautiful deck with hot tub providing gorgeous river views. Bryan is attentive but not intrusive and responds to questions instantly.
