Compass Rose: Orient yourself! 3 bedroom peaceful retreat on the lake

This adorable 3 bedroom house is located on 2 acres with a beautiful view of Watauga Lake! Centrally located, it's a half mile from the Butler Trading Post, Bayview Marina public boat ramp, Maddie Moe's pizza, Butler Museum, and Butler Fitness Center. Bring your swim suits, yard games and grillin' skills. Enjoy sunset dinners on the patio, surrounded by the majestic mountains of the Blue Ridge.

This property is in a peaceful agricultural neighborhood populated by locals. Watauga Lake can be accessed by a 3 minute walk down the road, or by either of the marinas within a mile of the house. There is a large front and back yard, as well as a wooded area to explore. The front porch is a secluded place to have a private moment away from the family, while the large back porch sports a couch and 3 tables for gathering with the group, with an incredible Watauga Lake sunset view. All three bedrooms have queen beds, and one room has a twin trundle bed for extra accommodation. Access all your favorite streaming services from the brand new smart TV in the living area for movie night. Everything you need to make a meal (minus the groceries!) can be found in the kitchen. Kiddos (and playful grownups) can bounce their wiggles out on the full sized trampoline in the front yard.

Please note that at this time, we cannot host pets.

Winter family get together

The compass rose is a great little home to get together with friends and family and enjoy the peace and quiet of Butler Tennessee. Brooke is a fantastic host and very easy to work with. Very accommodating, I can't rave enough.

Lovely!

Loved staying here! Brooke was great and the place as very peaceful. The only negative I have was that there was a lot of ants in the kitchen, but other than that the house was clean and very comfortable.

Perfect hideaway

This was the perfect location to be close to family we were visiting while having a comfortable quiet place to return to. My friend has difficulty with status but has no problems at this property and we were so happy to find it.

nice house

The property was well appointed and as listed. We were hiking during the day and then playing board games in the evening. We had some communication with the owners and they were prompt and friendly. The house had some sugar ants but the owner plans to take care of this immediately and this did not impact our stay nor our opinion of the property.

Loved the property

We enjoyed the property! It was perfect for families with kids/teens. I always look for places with little to no knickknacks (toddler) and single story layout. We love the yard, the older kids tossed the football while the littles watched the cows across the street roam the hill.
