Feels Like Home "Lake front" Lake Watauga in the TN Hills

Relax and experience the beauty of Eastern Tennessee in our spacious (2100 sqft) and comfortable home away from home. Settle in to one of our three private bedrooms, then head to the fully-appointed kitchen to grab a snack or fire up the grill to enjoy the lake and mountain views while you prepare a meal. Enjoy floor-to-ceiling windows in our living room and game room for that mountain view from the indoors.
For the rest of your stay you can enjoy fireside chats, fishing and swimming in famous Lake Watauga from our private double deck boat dock with room for your boat, jet ski or kayak relax in the hot tub, or play pool and/or cards in our game room. With so many options, there's sure to be something fun for all ages and interests.
For more exploring, our cabin is centrally located just a short drive from many tourist attractions. Visit one of several marinas located on Lake Watauga to rent boats, kayaks, jet-skis, and other water-sport equipment. Or, bring your own boat and launch it at the closest marina (approximately 5 minutes from our cabin).
Plan a hike to nearby waterfalls, or Grandfather Mountain. Head about 30 miles east to Boone, NC and visit the Tweetsie Railroad and wander the beautiful campus at Appalachian State University.
Plan a visit to Bristol Motor Speedway, or head west about 20 miles to visit one of the nations oldest covered bridges in Elizabethton, TN. If you're visiting on a Friday or Saturday night, Elizabethton also has a drive-in theater that plays current films. Wander the antique shops, or enjoy a classic Eastern Tennessee meal in Johnson City. So much adventure and relaxation to be enjoyed, you're sure to want to visit again!
Although we love our four-legged friends, pets are not permitted at this time.


ATTENTION DUE to damage from Helene the hot.tub is out of order until further notice. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Great views and comfortable home
We had a great stay at this property, it has a beautiful view of the lake and is a short trip to multiple marinas. The house itself has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Just be aware that the driveway is super steep and your tires will slip a bit going up, especially in the rain.

Wonderful property!
This is our second visit to the property and we enjoyed just as much as our first visit. The cabin is very clean and we took full advantage of all the amenities that were offered including swimming off the dock to playing cards and pool in the game room. The owners are always very responsive and we look forward to staying here again soon!

Relaxing get away
Very clean, lovely and comfortable. View from deck was wonderful. Bed was comfortable. Very quiet location. Good base to go in several directions. Yes the driveway is steep but that is common in this area. It is paved so not really a problem. Would stay again in a minute.

Stay at Butler Lake House
The house is absolutely beautiful and the hosts were always available when needed. The drive to the actual hosue once you enter the gate is steep and the dock is a bit of a short walk. The place was clean and nice. Great place overall.

Beautiful cabin. Peaceful and remote area away from the hustle of everyday life. No cell service till you get down closer to Watauga Lake but enjoyed that aspect. WiFi was wonderful and thoroughly enjoyed our time in this cabin. Everything you need was provide to cook and enjoy the comforts away from home:) Great communication with Host…

Beautiful Lake Cabin
We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful lake cabin. The cabin had everything our group needed for a hassle free relaxing weekend including a well stocked kitchen and a Kureg coffee bar was an added bonus! The owner also supplies a guide book to the cabin and the amenities which is very helpful and thorough which was very much appreciated. Highly recommend this property and hope to return to visit it again soon.

Beautiful Cabin ~ Wonderful Vacation
We had an amazing time. The cabin was absolutely beautiful. The host was very responsive and helpful. We rented a pontoon boat for our time and tied it up to their dock. So convenient. We can't wait to go back!! Thank you!!

Beautiful lake house!
Spent time on the water - brought inflatable paddle boards. Elderly or inform people will struggle to get down to the lake - it’s a steep walk or drive. Cabin is well-appointed and attractively decorated.

Great stay
Very accommodating house with everything you need for the kitchen and extra blankets, etc. Great communication with the hosts and detailed instructions for everything in the house and the dock. The dock is down a steep hill but doable in a car back and forth. We brought our boat, kept it at the dock and had a great time! Would definitely rent again.

Perfect getaway!
We enjoyed our stay during Thanksgiving week. The cabin was lovely and had everything we needed, even more than we expected. The welcome basket and toiletries were thoughtful and a pleasant surprise. You can’t beat the view from the living room and deck! Would definitely recommend staying here, but be aware the driveway is very steep and winding.

Get Way
It was a great place to enjoy the beauty of East TN. I love feel of just getting away from the rest of the world and enjoy the lake and it’s beautiful mountains. The steepness of the route to and from the dock is something to get use to but grow up in East TN I’m very aware of it. All and all great place.

Beautiful Cabin
This property met all our needs. It was extremely spacious and offered a lot (coffee bar, fire pit, hot tub, spacious rooms and a beautiful view!)The steps to boat ramp were pretty steep but we didn’t need them. Driveway was steep with two very sharp turns that my hubby mastered. Morning coffee on the patio is a must! Would definitely come back. A big shoutout to our host for making our stay very comfortable and relaxing!
