'Got Rocks' 1 acre on Watauga River, Gazebo, Flat yard, Close to Golf Courses

Please email us to book.

Got Rocks? We sure do.. This river property is a great place for a family vacation, a quiet escape, a ski trip in the winter, or some river fun in the summer. A short drive off Highway 105, this property is a central location to all the High County has to offer. Nestled at the foot of the Grandfather Mountain, you are minutes away from the profile, but also close to larger areas like Boone and Banner Elk.

Basic amenities include Direct TV and Internet, however you may not need them in the summer as you may want to sit outside on the back deck or gazebo swing and enjoy the soothing waters of the Watauga River. Flat land is at a premium in the mountains, and this property has an acre of flat land and the yard is a great place to bring the kids to play or fish along the river. A fire pit at the edge of the yard is also available for your use, with a small creek going by that feeds into the Watauga River.

The home has been recently renovated and has been expanded to include generous decking and a sunroom. The kitchen is adjacent to the open concept family living and dining room areas. The home has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The Master Bedroom has fantastic views of the river and has its own private bathroom.

You will enjoy this river retreat. This home is perfect for families, couples or a group of friends getting away for the weekend. There is lots to do from hiking and shopping in the summer to skiing in the winter. This location is a short 5 minute driver from Sugar Mountain Ski resort. Why stay in a small hotel room when you can enjoy the beauty of the mountains from your back deck?

**Note, this VRBO is not in Echota, if it comes up in the search that way, it is the closest listing to Boone we could select

**Property may only be available to rent with a 3-4 minimum night stay around holidays. Please inquire about dates as we will try our best to accommodate.

Wonderful stay
Property was perfect for my family and our dog. It was very clean and comfortable and the location was beautiful. We went to ski Sugar Mountain and found that it was a short 10 minute drive which was perfect. We will definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Property
The house is very comfortable and well stocked. The setting is amazing. It is beautifully landscaped and the sound of the river in front and from the Gazebo in back is the most relaxing, peaceful place I’ve ever felt in our beautiful North Carolina mountains. We have already booked it for the fall.

Wonderful and relaxing spring break
The house was perfect for our family of 4 and our pups. Check-in was easy, home was clean and comfortable and equipped with the standard kitchen items needed to cook a few meals at the home as well as paper products/dish soap/etc. The river bubbling through the property was so relaxing from the porch. We can’t wait to visit again!

Lovely home
It was a great gathering place for our adult children to join us for a family vacation. The location is convenient to many activities. The house was clean and well-stocked with basics. The river wraps around 3 sides of the property. We enjoyed the soothing sounds of the river and relaxed around the fire pit. We look forward to returning for another visit!

Lovely place
My son and I stayed here for the week during spring break. We had a great time and the host was super accommodating for me to bring our special needs cat along. It was close enough to hikes and a grocery store but not too close. The creek was super nice to enjoy. The only downfall is that it’s is in a neighborhood and right off the main highway. We enjoyed our entire week and didn’t want to leave. Thank you for sharing this great place!

We had a great time socializing by the incredible babbling creek. Lots of space and nice property. The only thing is the wood rockers in the gazebo smelled really bad from mold and mildew. We moved them out of the gazebo.

Perfect spot for our young family and old dogs
We loved how remote this cabin felt. We brought two old dogs that enjoyed sunbathing in the yard. Our 2 and 6 year old spent hours playing in the beautiful creek. We loved the proximity to town and comfort of the home. We will surely be back!

Can’t Get Enough of “Got Rocks”
Our third fall “mini” vacation at this property. We love it! Comfortable - secluded but close to both Boone and Banner Elk. The perfect place for a weekend retreat - but close to restaurants, breweries and grocery stores. Can’t recommend it enough. We will be back next year.
