The Space:
This spacious 3-bedroom, 3-full-bathroom bungalow was thoughtfully designed with a cozy modern farmhouse aesthetic — clean lines, warm finishes, and all-new everything. The efficient layout is perfect for families, small groups, fishing buddies, or couples looking for a relaxing waterfront getaway.
Outdoor Living at Its Best: Unwind waterside around the beautiful firepit and outdoor dining area, or take in the views from one of our peaceful decks. This is the kind of place where mornings start slow with coffee by the river and evenings end under the stars.
A Fisherman's Paradise:
If you're an angler, you've just found your dream rental. The property offers private water frontage uniquely located at the mouth of the lower South Holston River as it flows into Boone Lake — one of the most dynamic fishing locations in East Tennessee. The charming waterfront cottage is also only 15 minutes from another world-class trout fishery, the Watauga River and within a 1 hour drive of countless mountain streams and lakes.
Spring & Summer (May–Mid September): When Boone Lake reaches full summer pool, the property features stable lakefront access — perfect for launching your canoe or kayak, swimming from the bank, and fishing for trophy lake-run trout and striped bass.
Fall & Winter (Mid September–April): As TVA draws down Boone Lake, the river channel becomes exposed, revealing phenomenal wade fishing during low-water periods when South Holston Dam isn't generating.
Two nearby boat ramps:
1. Bluff City boat ramp on Boone Lake (~1 mile downriver)
2. J. Forrest Thomas access area on the South Holston River (~1 mile upriver).
Whether you're fly fishing for wild browns, targeting migrating stripers, or introducing the kids to their first cast, this property delivers world-class access.
Perfect Homebase for Events & Adventures:
Attending a NASCAR race at Bristol Motor Speedway?
Catching a concert or Rhythm & Roots Festival in downtown Bristol?
Trying your luck at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino?
Playing in a Pickleball tournament at Bristol Sportsplex?
Exploring the Tri-Cities food and brewery scene?
This riverside retreat's central location puts you minutes from it all — without the noise, traffic, or hotel prices.
Guest Access:

- Parking area accommodates large boat trailers — pull right in with your rig.
- Full access to the entire property, including all outdoor spaces and waterfront
Important River Safety Note:
The South Holston River's water level fluctuates based on TVA's generation schedule at South Holston Dam. At low water, the river is calm and perfect for wading. During generation, flows rise several feet and become swift and powerful. Always check TVA's water release schedule (published the day before on the TVA website and app) before recreating on the river.
