Every Fisherman's Dream! Located on the beautiful Watauga River!

Fisherman's Dream is ideal for any fisherman, family or corporate getaway. We offer a beautiful lot with wade out fishing, mountainous views and the tranquility we all need these days. Property includes all linens, fully equipped kitchen, washer & drier, gas grill, TV & WiFi, and both a gas and wood burning fire pit. All you have to pack is your fishing pole and personal items. We will provide the rest!

Fisherman's Dream has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The master bedroom has a queen sized bed that will sleep 2. The other two bedrooms each have 2 full sized beds that could easily allow this property to sleep 10!

Located just 5 minutes to the quaint city of Elizabethton, you can find great local eateries such as the famous Ridgewood BBQ. If you don't want make the trip to town or fry your catch of the day, delivery is available. The grocery store and package stores are 5 minutes away, yet you still have the tranquil setting of a mountain retreat! It is truly the best of both worlds.

Bristol Motor Speedway is only 15 minutes away!! It 's a perfect way to spend race weekend; fish in the day and race at night!!! Roan Mountain State Park, Watauga Lake, and the Jonesborough Storytelling Festival are also very convenient to this property.

The Watauga River offers the some of the best trout fishing in the entire USA! With approximately 2000 fish per acre (yes, you read that correctly). Trout species in the Watauga River are Rainbow, Brook and Brown. There are also various non-game species. This property is almost halfway down the river. It is perfect for taking a lunch break, refilling the cooler, or just stretching your legs before you continue down stream.

Did I mention that right outside the back door of this property is what I call "The Church Hole?" Fisherman almost always stop to fish this location and usually catch something. You can also sit on the bank and just cast a few if you aren't up for wading in the river.

Fisherman's Dream has something to offer everyone. We hope to see you soon.

Perfect Family Getaway
Our family enjoyed staying at Every Fisherman's Dream even though we aren't fisher-people. We relaxed, played football, did art work and my 15 yo tried fly fishing. He didn't catch anything, but had an amazing time trying. This was the perfect spot for us to enjoy some "us" time. It was also a great distance to everything we needed, including Emmanuel Seminary and Milligan College. Highly recommend this as a place to stay if visiting a student or coming for an event at the College.

Fishermen's Dream house Review
Location is excellent with a superb view of the Watauga river and close to good supermarkets and general infrastructure. House is very comfortable for a small group of friend or a family.

Enjoyed our Time
We enjoyed our time. Fishing on the river was great until mid afternoon when water rises with dam release. Also because the fishing is good, there are many fisherman who fish this area both by wading and in boats. We enjoyed being close to shops, local attractions and restaurants but we also missed a more secluded location. It was kind of the best of both worlds. Our main focus was fishing for our adult son. We enjoyed the back porch and sitting out there every day. Would suggest some updates on the mattresses. The master bedroom especially was very noisy when sitting down and rolling over. Enjoyed the openess of the floor plan and having everything on single floor.

Great little trip
We enjoyed our stay. The location and close proximity to the river was great! The beds were a little uncomfortable and kitchen items could be a little better but overall it was a great stay. I’d stay again.
