Bring the whole family — pups included* — to a warm and cozy cabin retreat, a perfect home base for outdoor adventure with access to a private dock on crystal-clear Watauga Lake overlooking the Appalachian Mountains. Enjoy hiking the AT, swimming, fishing, and boating by day, then unwind on the wraparound porch by the fire pit as the sun sets and you stargaze the night away. It’s the perfect getaway for you, your loved ones, and your pups as you relax, reconnect and make memories to last a lifetime.
