Everything was just as we hoped. Very clean, well stocked, close to the water⊠Several extras provided, basket full of sâmore fixings, popcorn popper for the fire pit, fire food, lots of water toys⊠Loved the lake theme decor! Very comfortable bed and pillows. Covered section of the dock a big plus. We want to come again!
Another summer down, and another wonderful stay. :) Nothing is overlooked and the place is spotless, with beautiful views in a peaceful location. Looking forward to hopefully another enjoyable stay in the future!
Easy access and we enjoyed the dock - and jumped in the lake every day - inside was very clean and modern - in fact, it was much more updated then we thought! The AC worked amazingly as we had temps in the upper 90s for several days!
Much needed peacefully beautiful setting. We where married on the lake and stayed here years back. The updated cottage is absolutely beautiful. Hopefully they will have us back.
This was my third stay at Catfish cottage, and I plan on returning next year. The owners have perfected all the amenities you will need to enjoy a relaxing, fun experience on Watauga Lake. The cottage and property are immaculate, and they worked extra hard this year after having survived Hurricane Helene. Itâs a magical place for me, and anyone I invite always falls in love with it as well.
My partner and I enjoyed our stay at Catfish tremendously. The property is immaculate; the hosts have thought of every detail. We cannot wait to go back! Highly recommend.
This is our third time coming back and we love it every time! We have made this our Anniversary get away spot! Pat is so easy to work with and she cares about making sure you have a great experience!
We stayed three nights. The cottage was great. It had everything that was advertised. A great quiet location with the private dock. We will come back again.
Our experience was phenomenal, from check-in to check-out. The hosts have thought of everything to make you feel right at home, and you cannot say enough about the beautiful location. A great place for a relaxing and peaceful vacation. We will definitely be back!!!
Patricia and George were great hosts that were very accommodating to everything we needed. Great cabin. Great Lake. Great area. Great hosts! So naturally a great time!
We throughly enjoyed staying at catfish cottage. Everything is so well organized and the view is absolutely amazing. Very peaceful and tranquil. We will be back đ
My husband and I rent this cozy lakeside cabin at least once or twice a year. It's perfect for two people (plus dogs). Hosts are always so welcoming and the cabin is well-equipped. 10/10
We are an older couple who fell in love with the location of Catfish Cottage. We kept the name that was on the cottage, but almost everything else has been updated (totally inside).
It is at the intersection of the Watauga River which flows from Boone, NC and the lake. In the winter, out front of the cottage is a natural spring which when the lake is iced over, there is a circle of unfrozen water where the spring is. Kayaking and/or canoeing up the river is an adventure or just going for an evening canoe ride out in the lake. Pontoon rentals are available from either Fish Spring Marina or Lake Shore Marina in Butler, TN or Cove Ridge Marina
