You may have to speak a little louder at the "Old Fisherman's Cottage," as the sound of waterfalls abound at this unique vacation rental. The main cabin was built on 6 acres and only 50 feet from Beech Creek, where only the creek does the rushing.

The cabin's interior features native ash flooring, white pine paneling, and lodge decor. There are 4 bedrooms in the main cabin, two queens, one full, one full/twin bunk. The main cabin has a single bath. A large screened porch with table and chairs, a porch swing and other seating opens onto a sun deck then a short ramp to the pavillion, then to a rock patio and streamside hot tub. This cabin has all the comforts of home in a private wilderness setting.

A second cabin is available if needed. It features a queen bed, full bath with antique claw foot soaking tub, kitchenette and covered porch with rhododendron railing overlooking the waterfall. This charming, romantic getaway is elevated and has the feel of a tree house. It is finished with all native wood and cathedral ceiling. It has its on TV with Direct TV's full movie package. It is located only 50 feet from the main cabin yet retains its on privacy. Open the French doors and let the sound of the waterfall soothe you to sleep. The "Treehouse" does not rent separately to assure the privacy of our main cabin guest.

A streamside 6 person hot tub is set in a tanquil location just a few feet from the waters edge.

An old, abandoned, narrow gauge, rail bed provides a wonderful hiking trail up the creek. Great pool fishing on designated trout waters for miles upstream of the cabin. If you prefer to use a guide Foscoe Fishing Co's Orvis endorsed guides often frequent Beech Creek and can meet you on site, or book a float trip down the Watauga for world class trophy trout or smallmouth fishing.

Boating and lake fishing are six miles away on beautiful Watauga Lake. Skiing on Beech Mountain is seven miles away, along with world class restaurants and many other activities. Boone is 12 miles away with a multitude of amenities and activities.

  • We had such a great time on our cabin getaway. With 2 kids (2 and 3.5 yr old boys), there was much fun to be had. Exploring up and down the stream, roasting marshmallows, and takig full advantage of the hot tub! We even captured a crawfish! Some great memories were made. We would love to come back during the summer!

    What a great month, I can't believe it is over. Of all our summers in the "highlands" this has been the best. I couldn't keep the kids out of the creek - swimming and catching critters. Perfect place for the extended family-lots of relaxing for everyone! Thank You! See you again

  • My husband and I, along with some of our family members, spent over a week at this cabin. The place is absolutely fabulous! The hours spent just hanging out at the pavilion were most relaxing. The adjacent stream is incredible. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. It is just perfect for a family get-together or just a place to get away from it all.

    We enjoyed our stay. The constant and babbling stream was incredible whether listening day or sleeping at night. Relaxation meets its match here!
