This place has three cozy cabins on the Watauga River and seems to attract a loyal following of fishermen. It has more space for recreational vehicles, but we stayed in a cabin and loved it. The owners keep the grounds neat and clean--even the fire rings, where a campfire is lit at night. Kayaks are available for paddling the river (TVA sometimes releases water from Watauga Dam around noon, so we took care to be on dry land by then). We lenjoyed the decor of our cabin--each has its own theme--and the porch facing the river, with its rocking chairs and flower box. It wasn't hard to fall asleep, since the beds are comfortable and the area is quiet. This is an affordable getaway, very relaxing.
