Family-friendly holiday rentals in Watauga River

We loved the space and it was perfect to go see a show at Beech mountain. Easily walkable to the mountain for the concert.

This by far the best place we have stayed in the last few years. It was beautifully and comfortably decorated. Had everything we needed. Morning came with a symphony of birds and sounds from the cows in the neighboring farm. Nighttime brought a chorus of tree frogs. The beds were comfortable the kitchen stocked and the hot tub was a great way to relax at the end of the day. Close to fishing and hiking. Would definitely stay again if back in the area.

This little cabin was in a gorgeous location! Right next to the snow tubing and not far from grandfather mountain! The views from the hot tub were amazing! Brought our two dogs and they loved it! The patio with the hot tub was fenced in so the dogs were able to hang with us while we were relaxing in the hot tub! Definitely would recommend and plan to come back!

Even though it was a short stay for us, I can’t say enough positive things about our experience. Simon’s hospitality was exceptional. He went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. Beautiful location beside the River to enjoy from the front porch. Very pleased with the accommodations. Everything you need for a relaxing stay. Thank you again Simon!

We had a great stay at William's place. it was clean, peaceful and we felt right at home. The grill and hot tub made it a great place to relax, unwind, and cook out after a day out. Would definitely stay again!

We loved everything about the place and our stay was perfect. We highly recommend it to anyone. Greg was very excellent at communicating.

We loved our stay in the NC mountains! It was peaceful and beautiful. Janice was a great communicator and made sure our stay was comfortable. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin with us!

My husband and I stayed for a month at the house and absolutely loved it. It was peaceful and beautiful with the music of a rushing streamf filling the house everyday when we opened up the French doors. It was refreshing to see that the house actually matched all of the photos and the amenities that were listed. It was great to have a grocery store and a restaurant within 15 minutes of the house. we loved it so much. we're going to come back again next year.

We had a great stay at the Plumtree Cabin, it was nice to journey through the mountains and find ourselves in a private Cabin next to a farm. We were also welcomed by a family of 7 deer each night of our stay. Very affordable and comfortable cabin. Will definitely keep in mind for future travels.

The birds nest was perfect for our weekend trip to Asheville. The house was very clean and organized. Had everything we needed, plenty of towels and a perfect location. When you are on the patio or walking through the garden you understand why it is named “little bird”. Just loved it.

Only here for one short night, but it was exactly what I needed. The cabin was clean, cozy, and easy to find. Loved the back porch with the rocking chairs overlooking the creek and so peaceful. Super convenient location but still felt like a quiet escape. Would definitely come back for a longer stay!

My husband and I had a great stay! We went for a peaceful time away, and it was exactly that. We relaxed and enjoyed our time away, went to the local shops and ate some great food. We would definitely come back!

This is are new go to when we visit Family. Very Tranquil setting peaceful quiet. We are Animal lovers So their Dog Tuff Tuff came and visited us owner was present we said it’s ok we love Dogs. Go about your day Tuff Tuff stayed with us for about 15 minutes and he just left. Very Nice People. Look forward to visiting here again😊 God Bless

We stayed at the cabin for our wedding weekend and it was perfect! A nice, quiet spot to relax between events.

We would 1000% stay again! We barely left the home because the views and the comforts were perfect for a vacation. They have every amenity you could ever ask for. There were appliances in the kitchen that we never used but we were impressed by alll of the options. The beds are comfortable and it’s easy to feel at home. As for the driveway- it is quite steep and looks intimidating but people that have experience driving on mountain roads will be totally fine! I made it with my Honda Accord. Book your stay, you won’t regret it!

such a beautiful place to stay! truly a hidden garden within 10-15 to downtown boone and the parkway! Host was very friendly and attentive. enjoyed everything about our stay, will definitely be back.

A great location if you are doing activities at Beech Mountian resort, very walkable. They were very responsive and provide very good info for dining and activities.

Great cabin! Perfect for what we needed on our AT hike. Close to the trail heads, clean, and cozy

A pristine home in an amazing private community. Full equipped with kitchen, bath, and extras. Always great recommendations and responsive to questions. Highly recommend for families that enjoy nature and privacy.

I had a great month long early spring stay at this mountainside studio condo with beautiful mountain and valley views. The unit was clean, comfortable, relaxing, and was perfect for my very simple needs. There are many on site and nearby (non-ski season) mountain hiking trails and quiet neighborhood road walking routes. I appreciated having access to the heated indoor pool and fitness room in the community clubhouse. Overall, a wonderful spot for anyone looking to enjoy the mountains!

Kayla’s place was perfect for our stay. We found everything as described and we felt right at home.

This is our second stay at Nicole's place. Five-star accommodations - squeaky clean, super comfortable beds, and we appreciate all the extra amenities (coffee, snacks, spices, etc.). The deck is the perfect place for a morning coffee or evening meal. Can't beat the location as you can walk to town, the outlet mall, and the trails at Cone Manor Park.

What a great place! Also the host was very kind and great communication! Very nice place and only 10 minutes from Sugar Mountain. Wonderful amenities including pool, hot tub, sauna, library, shop, workout room etc etc. Only (potential) issue which is no fault of the owners is that this is a large 10 story condo complex. On busy days, especially around the weekend it can get very busy during check in and check out and you have to park outside of the guard shack and get shuttled back to the condo. Again, we didn’t really have much of a hang up but others did-just something to keep in mind. Fantastic place, and well equipped! Thank you again!

Whitney & Jay were great hosts—responsive and helpful when we had questions. The space was just as shown/described in the listing. My family of four enjoyed our stay during spring break and our first time skiing during Sugar Mountain’s end-of-season March Madness. We made such wonderful memories here. Be sure to enjoy the most stunning sunrises and sunsets from the balcony.
