CABIN AT THE COVE at Watauga Lake!

Enjoy a peaceful retreat in this tiny modern lake cabin located within a marina community. Take in a view of the mountains from the large front porch.

Weekend getaway

Overall good, but was unaware of location surroundings. Property does sit on Watuaga lake, however you are unable to see the lake from the property.

Trailer home view blocked lake view :-(

Except for the view of trailers which wasn’t listed, it was ok. I would not have rented if I seen the proper view.
