Mountains surround Doe River 400 ft Frontage, wildlife out the back door.

Private setting on the Doe River. Two bedroom, two bath. Recently remodeled rambler. Within 25 minutes of the Bristol Motor Speedway, Roan Mountain, Watauga Lake, and the Tweetsie trail. Close to ETSU and Milligan College and centrally located for the famous "Southern Dozen" for the motorcycle enthusiast. Downtown Elizabethton is close by for antiquing. Private setting but close to shopping.
The Doe River is known for great Trout fishing, especially in the fall. We have 400 ft of river frontage for fishing and or kayaking. The house is located within minutes of the South Holston river as well as the junction of the Watauga and Doe Rivers, one of the best Trout areas in the eastern U.S.
Sit on the large deck and simply enjoy the peace and quiet. Great place to get away and relax. Full kitchen with everything you need. King size bed in master. Two XL twins in guest room. Gas grill for cooking out on the deck as well as comfy patio furniture under cover. Towels and linens, pots pans and dishes provided. We also have streaming and wifi for your TV enjoyment.
We have an adjacent property as well, # 2127445. May wish to check it out ! This adjacent property is a romantic 1 bedroom loft for two.

The house and property were beautiful. Perfect for our getaway. The water right outside the back door made for a stunning view both mornings and at night. Fire pit was an added bonus. Thank you for the great hospitality and service from the very kind owners. The pride in their home and their community shows! We will be back!

Beautiful home and surroundings especially the deck overlooking the river. Carport was a plus. It kept us dry while packing up while it was raining. Everything we needed for preparing meals was available. The homeowner called to give my husband fishing location tips. We thought that wS above and beyond nice. We highly recommended this property

Fly fishing weekend

From the start, communication was top notch! The house was fantastic and exactly has advertised. Enjoyed fishing in the "back yard" on Friday, we had a blast catching Rainbows and Browns! Love the proximity to Elizabethton, which is where we met our fly fishing guide! Great day floating on the Watauga!!Will be back...thanks for a great weekend!!

Wonderful Home

The house felt like home upon arrival. We weren’t too far from town but away from traffic! The sight and sound of the river running through the backyard was relaxing. Homeowner left detailed instructions and information. We will be renting again next time we are in the area.

A great place to return to after a busy day out. I was looking for a place to relax and this home was PERFECT! Listening to the water out the back was a wonderful addition to my morning coffee on the deck.

Cozy Hidden Gem

We are repeat offenders and plan on keeping that status. Never disappoints, in fact it just gets better with every visit. This sweet home sits right on the Doe River. Very convenient to restaurants, grocery stores, etc. but feels a world away. First steps in the door and you’ll feel you are right at home in this cozy, clean home. Well appointed kitchen. Clean bathrooms with lots of hot water and great water pressure. Super comfy beds and linens Wonderful cowboy grill right beside the waters edge. Very clean gas grill.Comfortable deck furniture overlooking the river. Richard and Diane are the best host. They go above and beyond to assure you have a wonderful visit. Needless to say, we highly recommend Journeys End!!

Missing Journeys End the Moment I Left

The owners put so much Love into making this vacation rental feel like Home Away from Home. The inside was as beautiful and Cozy as the outside! Stunning views of the Mountains and the sound of the River was so peaceful and relaxing. Fishing was fun and watching the Birds were an extra treat! Located near Great Restaurants and Shopping. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to relax and stay warm during a weekend getaway with a beautiful Snow fall. Can’t wait to visit in the summer to do some tubing and kayaking right off the back porch!! Thanks so much!! The locals were as friendly as they come!!
