Ross's Retreat on Watauga Lake

Nestled in the mountains of Northeast Tennessee on Watauga lake, one of the cleanest lakes in the country, great for fishing. Has a boat dock with great views of the mountains and lake. My place is close to restaurants and dining, and family-friendly activities. You’ll love my place because of the views and the accessible location. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, families (with kids). But no large gathering or parties
