40's Cabin, 2 Streams, Roomy Deck, Updated Kitchen

We named our space "The Creek House" because of the bold creek that flows down the hill from the cabin. The home is located in a holler with views of the mountains in the distance. It is peaceful with sounds of water cascading over the boulders. You might also hear the occasional neighing & mooing of our neighbors on the farm next door! The area offers hiking, fishing, skiing, tubing, gem mining, Zip lining, UTVing, dining, antique shopping, wine tastings at local vineyards, etc.

Ross's Retreat on Watauga Lake

Nestled in the mountains of Northeast Tennessee on Watauga lake, one of the cleanest lakes in the country, great for fishing. Has a boat dock with great views of the mountains and lake. My place is close to restaurants and dining, and family-friendly activities. You’ll love my place because of the views and the accessible location. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, families (with kids). But no large gathering or parties
