Twisted Vines Cabin -Tiny Home Near Watauga Lake

Welcome to our tiny-home cabin in the Appalachians near Watauga Lake, the Appalachian Trail and three Ski areas; we would love to host you! Although we allow up to 4 guests, please keep in mind this tiny home is only 500ft². The home features one queen bed as well as a queen sleeper sofa in the living area. Twisted Vines Cabin is hosted by Christie & Donaven at WataugaLakeVacations, come relax, unwind, and reconnect with what you love.

Escape the city lights in our Appalachian tiny-house. On the main level, there is a full kitchen, dining area, living area, and outdoor deck complete with grill, bistro dining set and outdoor seating. For connectivity and entertainment, we offer free high-speed WiFi, a 43" 4K HDR Roku TV. As cell service is limited in this remote area, WiFi calling must be enabled to make phone calls. Downstairs has a magnificent queen bed made from beautiful, local hardwood, a full bathroom with shower, small sitting area and laundry room. Watauga Lake, the Appalachian Trail, and ski resorts are all within minutes.

You have access to the entire cabin. There is very little yard space; however, there is ample deck space. Paved parking allows for two vehicles.

This area is quite remote; however, the cabin is on a major road for the area (it is only a two lane highway) and is very easy to get find.

Watauga Lake, one of the cleanest lakes in the country, offers great places for boating, swimming, water sports, fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and paddle boarding. Boat rentals are just seven minutes away and the Little Milligan boat ramp is five minutes away.

The Appalachian Trail is 11 minutes away, and many hiking trails such as Laurel Falls, Blue Hole Falls, Pond Mountain, and Lacy Trap Ridge are close by.

Additional recommendations for local places are in our guidebook.

This cabin is located on a well traveled two lane road. During the winter, it is plowed first and up kept regularly. There is ample parking just off the road for 2 vehicles or vehicle with a trailer. Pull in and pull out is easy and no backing up is required.

There is a Dollar General within four minutes and a variety of grocery stores 18 to 25 minutes away. We recommend you get groceries prior to arrival.

WiFi calling must be enabled to make phone calls from the cabin - cell service is limited in the area.

This cabin is located in the Cherokee National Forest. One of the benefits is you will possibly get to see wildlife! We have seen bear, deer, turkeys, etc. Conversely, you may see wildlife! Since it is in a remote area, be aware that this is a possibility and should be expected.

A baby crib, Graco Pack-N-Play, is available in the laundry room.

Wonderful stay at Watauga Lake

The cabin was very clean and comfortable. The hosts were wonderful and communicative. Everything we needed was there and it was super convenient to the lake. The bathroom and bedroom are downstairs, so be aware of that if you have any physical conditions that would make it a problem. We had a wonderful stay and will definitely stay again when in the area.

Quite an unexpected surprise!

It was an amazing little getaway and we were quite surprised at the layout of the rooms. What I expected was to turn the corner and find a little room to sleep in. Instead i was greeted to a staircase that led to a huge bedroom. It was an enjoyable weekend and look forward to staying again in the future!

Watauga Getaway

We had a great time at this property. It was just the right size for the 2 of us. Was super clean, cozy and comfortable. The location is great being so close to the lake as well as short drives to Elizabethton and Boone. Great communication with the owner. Would definitely recommend for a couple's getaway and would stay again.

A Really Awesome Little Cabin

Great cabin. Just didn't see in the property pics that the front door of cabin was just a few short feet from main hwy. Just a little nervous about being between curves that close to road. Pets and children would require extreme caution. For two adults it's a Great Cabin. The bedroom being exactly where it needs to be😉

Quaint Cabin

Great for a quick stay and very convenient to public lake access. Overall the cabin was clean. The location of the cabin is very close to the road, would not recommend if you have small children. The cabin was probably not a home originally, the bedroom is on the lower level and had a musty odor. The bathroom is functional but also small with a 3x3 shower. Would be great for a couple fishermen looking for quick access to the boat ramp.

Clean but very moldy downstairs.

Home was immaculately clean. Unfortunately they are not mindful of the moldy bedroom and shower area downstairs. If you are at all sensitive to mold steer clear. It smells bad down there. Husband and I arrived late with no other options so we slept upstairs on the couch and makeshift bed on the floor. They need a better dehumidifier - get rid of any carpeting - redo the tiny shower area. Also surprised it was right off a major road. - The good part was the well stocked kitchen and nice updated appliances. No dust. It was definitely clean. It just has mold issues that need to addressed. (The towels Stink bad of mold in the bathroom too.) Too bad because there was a nice big bed downstairs.

Loved it except 1 thing...

The cabin is excellent, well appointed and very comfortable. Great internet and even the phone service was adequate. The queen bed was very comfortable and the room is pitch dark for great sleep. We loved the proximity to all the lake marinas and some restaurants we would have loved to visit but most were closed Monday and Tuesday. The only disappointment we had was how close the cabin and parking area was to the main road (Hwy 321), something others may want to be aware of if you have a quick small child or pet. Otherwise, even with the occasional heavy traffic noise, we loved the back deck for morning coffee and relaxing in the evening. We would love to visit again.

What a peaceful getaway!

Look no further for a cozy and intimate cabin in Tennessee! My husband and I wanted to do a relaxing getaway with our dog and we got just that! Christie and Donaven had amazing communication first off and I really appreciated that! They made the instructions for check in seamless and they would even text us to just ensure that we had everything we needed! The cabin is incredibly clean and for up to 4 people it's a perfect amount of space. Although we didn't need it, there was everything you may have needed to cook a meal in the kitchen, they even left some snacks and goodies when we arrived! The bathroom shower is a very small squeeze even for a small bodied person, however the shower pressure was great and the hot water always came on quickly! It might be an odd thing to say but they also had really soft sheets and fluffy towels, haha! The cabin is right off the road, like RIGHT there around a bend. However, it wasn't always a busy road so it felt safe to turn into the small parking area and be able to pull out when leaving. The traffic off the road never disturbed our stay there and inside we were never bothered by noise. Check out was actually one of the easiest I've had when staying at a rental as well! They were totally accommodating to let our dog stay with us and he had a blast! I would definitely stay with them again! We had an amazing time!
