Every Fisherman's Dream! Located on the beautiful Watauga River!

Fisherman's Dream is ideal for any fisherman, family or corporate getaway. We offer a beautiful lot with wade out fishing, mountainous views and the tranquility we all need these days. Property includes all linens, fully equipped kitchen, washer & drier, gas grill, TV & WiFi, and both a gas and wood burning fire pit. All you have to pack is your fishing pole and personal items. We will provide the rest!

Fisherman's Dream has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The master bedroom has a queen sized bed that will sleep 2. The other two bedrooms each have 2 full sized beds that could easily allow this property to sleep 10!

Located just 5 minutes to the quaint city of Elizabethton, you can find great local eateries such as the famous Ridgewood BBQ. If you don't want make the trip to town or fry your catch of the day, delivery is available. The grocery store and package stores are 5 minutes away, yet you still have the tranquil setting of a mountain retreat! It is truly the best of both worlds.

Bristol Motor Speedway is only 15 minutes away!! It 's a perfect way to spend race weekend; fish in the day and race at night!!! Roan Mountain State Park, Watauga Lake, and the Jonesborough Storytelling Festival are also very convenient to this property.

The Watauga River offers the some of the best trout fishing in the entire USA! With approximately 2000 fish per acre (yes, you read that correctly). Trout species in the Watauga River are Rainbow, Brook and Brown. There are also various non-game species. This property is almost halfway down the river. It is perfect for taking a lunch break, refilling the cooler, or just stretching your legs before you continue down stream.

Did I mention that right outside the back door of this property is what I call "The Church Hole?" Fisherman almost always stop to fish this location and usually catch something. You can also sit on the bank and just cast a few if you aren't up for wading in the river.

Fisherman's Dream has something to offer everyone. We hope to see you soon.

Thanksgiving trip
This is our 3rd. Thanksgiving stay. We choose Fisherman’s dream for the views, fishing and the house is always clean and decorated with a cute cabin feel with the closeness of town a few min. Away. Just watch out for the bear in the kitchen in the middle of the night. If you don’t believe us book a stay and find out for yourself.

Great little trip
We enjoyed our stay. The location and close proximity to the river was great! The beds were a little uncomfortable and kitchen items could be a little better but overall it was a great stay. I’d stay again.

Excellent stay
Property was very clean and cozy. Had family over and fished off the riverbank. The backyard is exactly as pictured and there is a raised up plateau with chairs that is right on the river and you can fish from right on the river. There is a river access also if you want to go into the river. Loved my stay and the hosts went above and beyond for me when I needed them due to my error

We loved our weekend here. It was a cold but beautiful time of year to admire the river and surrounding landscape. Perfect driving distance to the main part of Elizabethton. The rental was very clean, had all necessary accommodations, and provided an excellent place to relax.
