About this property

Watauga's End Farm. Riverside Getaway in East TN

This is just a great place to take advantage of the races and the river.
We enjoyed restoring the farm and house to make a scenic countryside vacation spot. We stripped down the house and were able to save the old pine floors and ceilings as well as some nostalgia some ancient metal shingles. We made some unique furniture out of barn wood and used luthier grade curly maple to make the kitchen cabinets.The plumbing is indoor and modern and the beds and linens are new.
The main level upstairs has 2 bedrooms-- a queen and a daybed with 2 twins, as well as a bath with an extra sink outside. The living room has a sleeper sofa and the small kitchen is on this level.
Downstairs has a King bedroom and a bunkroom along with a family area, laundry and bathroom. There are decks and a dock to take in the river and this is a great place to finish your float trip. You can pull out your boat or have your guide drop you off right where you are staying since this is the end of the river.
Our farm is where Watauga river becomes Boone lake and is on the edge of Johnson City so you are just minutes from the mall, cinemas and restaurants. It is a quick jump onto the Bristol Highway and you are 12 miles and less than 20 minutes from the race track.

An excellent alternative to 2 hotel rooms, our group of 4 adults was very comfortable. Clean, excellent mattresses, great kitchen, scenic location not far from town. Hope to be back in the future!

Fantastic Race Weekend!
What a magical property. The drive in on their private road set the tone for what lied ahead. Beyond peaceful setting with friendly hosts. The river was serene and my kids loved the farm animals. Kim and James we beyond accommodating in letting our kids tour the bard and feed the horses, chickens and peacocks. Home was very comfortable with nice TVs and a suitable kitchen. Would not hesitate to book with them again. Memorable experience.

Farmhouse
This property was perfect for our weekend stay. House was clean and well stocked. Perfect size for a family get away with plenty of space for everyone. Owners very helpful when we had trouble locating the property since as the listing states, GPS has difficulty locating the property. House is located on a working farm. Granddaughters were thrilled with the cows, horses, donkeys and goats.

Great place!
This place is a little slice of heaven. Lots of space and it’s on the river. We saw ducks, geese, pileated woodpeckers, horses, donkeys, Guinea fowl, peacocks… Nice large deck with a gas grill and fire pit downstairs. Will definitely stay here again.
