About this property

Charming 2 BR/2BA cottage in Butler--great covered porches, big fenced yard

Sweet "old Butler" home has been thoughtfully remodeled but retains all its charm--9 foot ceilings, some original wood floors, 2 king bedrooms and 2 full baths. Covered porches with sofa and rocking chairs and fenced yard--pet friendly (dogs only) Sunshades for porch areas. Sleeps 4 adults and has a very comfortable daybed with trundle for up to 2 kids. Easy parking, no winding roads. I mile from Cove Ridge Marina for boat rentals or bring your own--there is room for a vehicle with trailer to park and the closest public boat access is a half mile away, just behind Bay View campground. Home has Spectrum WIFI and 3 Smart TV's for your streaming needs. But there are plenty of outdoor activities year round, from fishing/boating/swimming on Watauga Lake to hiking trails and other great towns just a short drive away--Abingdon VA, Johnson City TN, Bristol, Elizabethton for shopping, dining and entertainment.

About the host

Hosted by Gail Smart

Host profile image
Watauga Lake has been one of my favorite places for many years and I have stayed in many vacation homes in the area. I have also always loved old houses, so this cottage that was moved from "Old Butler" before the TVA flooded the valley for the lake, just seemed to be meant for us.

Why they chose this property

The home is located on Piercetown Road, which is the "main" road through the little community of Butler--so paved state maintained access to the house, no narrow steep driveways, just a few steps to enter and then all one level.

What makes this property unique

Charming older home with 9 foot ceilings, some original wood floors and updates done a few years ago. Beautiful lot, adequate parking, level access. Close to Cove Ridge Marina (they offer boat rentals) and to the easy public lake access if you bring your boat. Pet (dogs only) friendly with a large fenced in yard accessed off the covered side porch. Walkable neighborhood.
