The space
Elizabethton, TN offers the best of multiple worlds at your finger tips. Enjoy the small town feel with hometown shops, local restraunts and much more in our historic downtown.
It is a fisherman's dream with the well-known Watauga River, trophy trout fishing at your front door and the Watauga Lake, a "Bill Dance Signature Lake, which also offers boating and swimming on its peaceful waters within 15 minutes. Boone Lake, South Holston Lake and River are also just a short drive away. This area also provides many access points to the Appalachian Trail within a short drive as well as many other hiking trails to lookouts, waterfalls and nature hotspot. Ski Resorts in Beech Mountain, NC and Sugar Mountain, NC are less than 40 miles away. The iconic Bristol Motor Speedway is just 17 minutes from our driveway. Some of our personal favorite short drive day trips are to Blowing Rock, NC (52 miles), Boone, NC (47 miles), Banner Elk, NC (33 miles), Grandfather Mountain (29 miles), Linn Cove Viaduct (41 miles), and The Blue Ridge Parkway (@ 40 milles). There are also shopping options in downtown Bristol (State Street divides TN and VA), The Pinnacle Shops (20 miles), and Johnson City (8 miles). Walk, run or bike the Tweetsie Trail which connects Elizabethton to Johnson City by beautiful trail.

Great place. Close enough to all attractions but secluded to keep it quiet and relaxing
