Ep 5. Fishing Around Watauga Lake

In season 8, episode 5 of Lakefront Bargain Hunt, titled "Fishing Around Watauga Lake," the search for the perfect lakefront property continues for an outdoorsy couple who are avid fishermen. With a budget of $375,000, they're hoping to snag a waterfront retreat on Watauga Lake in northeastern Tennessee.

First up on their list of must-haves is easy access to the lake for fishing, swimming, and boating. They're also hoping for a year-round home with plenty of space for visiting family and friends. With the help of a local real estate agent, they tour three potential properties.

The first property is a cozy cabin with a private dock on a quiet cove. The couple is impressed with the cabin's rustic charm, but the interior is a bit too cramped for their liking. They're also concerned about the property's lack of outdoor space for entertaining.

Next up is a spacious ranch-style home with plenty of room for guests and a large deck overlooking the lake. Although the property lacks a dock, the couple loves the big backyard and ample space for outdoor activities. But with a price tag over budget, they worry that the property might not be a feasible option.

Finally, they head to a stunning log home with a massive stone fireplace and expansive views of the lake. The property features a private dock and plenty of room for guests, but the couple is unsure about the home's remote location and lack of yard space.

Ultimately, the couple must decide which property best meets their needs and budget. Will they choose the cozy cabin with a private cove, the spacious ranch-style home with a large backyard, or the stunning log home with amazing views? Tune in to find out.
