Compass Rose: Orient yourself! 3BR on the Lake
we drove up for a wedding and happened to be there in the middle of the hurricane. Even though we had no power, we were still able to communicate with Brooke because she walked to the end of her road to get service to message us. If that's not a great host, I don't know what is. Thank you so much for being available even during the worst conditions to help answer questions we had. The Airbnb was beautiful and I even saw a couple deer which made me happy. Definitely recommend this place and we will be going back in better conditions.

Watauga Lake Home with Private Dock - 3bedrooms
This was a very comfortable home. Spacious and beautiful, and very clean, with gorgeous grounds. I loved all of the beautiful artwork on the walls! We were there for race weekend at Bristol, so we weren’t able to spend a lot of time just enjoying the property, but would love to come back one day for that. I would definitely recommend!

Boone Lake Retreat
absolutely beautiful place to stay, this is the second time we have stayed here and will continue to come back again and again. game room and fishing on the lake is a huge hit!! 10/10 recommend

Holston River House
This place was really nice, really enjoyed our stay here.

Skipping Stones Getaway - Watauga Lake Dock & Hot
We had a truly wonderful stay at Skipping Stones Getaway with our family of five. From the moment we arrived, it felt like a peaceful retreat—surrounded by beautiful views and the kind of quiet that instantly helps you unwind. Christie and Donaven have thought of everything. The house was fully stocked with all the essentials (and then some). From extra phone charging cables to those little items you might forget to pack, it was clear they’ve put a lot of care and attention into making guests feel at home. We spent our days out on the lake kayaking, soaking up the calm and beauty of the surroundings, and our evenings enjoying quality time together around the fire. It was the perfect mix of fun and relaxation. Skipping Stones Getaway is the kind of place you want to return to. Highly recommend for anyone looking to slow down, recharge, and make lasting memories in a truly lovely setting.

The Eagle's Nest w/Paddle Boards and Kayaks.
The Eagle Nest cabin was such a beautiful and peaceful place to stay. The host, Ricky, was always available, proactive, and helpful. The cabin is stunning and also pet friendly! There’s two cute farm cats to greet you daily! The house is nearby Watagua Lake and getting out on the water was the highlight of our trip😊.

Comfy Farmhouse at Watauga Lake
I really liked the clutter free space and tasteful design. The beds were comfortable. The area peaceful. Loved the fence backyard. The large kitchen table was great for all the board games we played. I liked the hand sprayer in the showers. Lot's of throw blankets. No bath soap or shampoo provided, so bring your own!

Relax in this 4BR, 3BA Boone Lake front cottage!
Very beautiful place! Well taken care of! This place is very roomy and was over looking the water. I stayed right at peek winter with snow so we did not get to enjoy the out doors much but it was super pretty looking out the window at the snow and water!

100 Mi Views | 2.5 mi to BR | Hot Tub | Kids Loft
Everything was perfect! Brian was super responsive and helped out with a couple small things we needed help with asap! Thank you so much!

Banner Elk 1BR on Lovely Resort
A great location with almost immediate access to skiing and hiking trails! We didn’t use the amenities while there but did see many families enjoying them. A 15 minute ride to Boone and all that area offers was a plus. This was a quiet, corner location with a soothing view of a pond on the grounds out all of the windows. A good sized space to wind down after a full day of adventures!

Krew’s Quarters-Lakefront Sleeps4 on South Holston
Great little place! Thanks

Black Kettle Mountain
John is “the” host! We had a great time in his property. The property has everything you need to have a great time. You can fish, swim in the pond, play pool, etc. John takes really good care of you, cannot ask for a better host!

Banner Elk 1BR on Lovely Resort
We had a great stay!! Everything was just as described! Perfect distance to sugar and beech for skiing! We hope to be back soon!

3 Mi to Grandfather Mountain Park: Cottage w/ Deck
This place was exactly what we needed it to be. I would definitely stay here again.

Lake House with Hot Tub, Game Room and Dock
Had a great stay. Fun place right on the lake.

A-frame Lakefront Getaway, kayak, private hot tub
I spent 3 nights on this property , the pricing was fair for the view and the amenities. Absolutely beautiful scenery, I hate that I didn’t get to get in the lake because of the weather , but so happy they had private hot tub on the property. The hot tub itself will leave you feeling stress free lol. The house was spotless and decor was beautiful very homie. I was suppose to have 5 guest but ended up just being 3 and feel like that’s the perfect amount of guest for this house. Love it , and highly recommend if you just wanna get away and enjoy some nature.

Mountaintop Vistas of NC/TN/VA
This was easily one of my most favorite vacations of all time. The tranquility and the peace that Nancy is beautiful property provided will be a memory that I will always cherish with my kids. Outside of the property, we were fortunate enough to take a pottery lesson with her and my daughter mentioned several times to me how this was one of her favorites experiences with me. In addition, they were kind enough to share an opportunity to hike down to their private land in the gorge gorge for a peaceful and fun Saturday afternoon. What an adventure it was and well worth it. overall, we will definitely be looking at coming back and absolutely be sharing this magical place with friends and family.

Farmer & the Naiad, cottage on 1800s farmplace
Can't say enough about my stay and how lovely Sarabeth was. The cottage was truly beautiful (the art work, design, furnishings). Every detail was thought of. It was the perfect getaway in stunning surroundings. Sarabeth and her family were so warm and responsive whenever I had questions. I felt truly welcome. It's a very special place and I can't wait to go back.

Summer in the NC mountains-
We enjoyed our trip to Newland and surrounding areas. Jeremy’s place was perfect for our family and friends. We enjoyed our trip!

Charming Mountain Cottage conveniently located
It's a really charming, comfortable, clean, and quiet place. It has the best kitchen equipment of any place I've stayed: a large set of dish- and glassware, pots and pans, plush towels, comfortable bed. The host communicated well and quickly. I would definitely return.

Blue Ridge Bungalow w/spa at Linville Land Harbor
It was a great place to stay at, thank you
