Note: There are steps to enter into home thru the front door. Once inside all one level. Also, steps off/onto the Deck. Basement is not part of the Rental.&nbsp;Also, we are in a rural area with spotty cell reception inside house so WiFi calling is recommended when inside home. Also, there may be a couple of neighborhood dogs that come visit since we are in a rural area. They have been very friendly to our previous guests.
Fishing along South Holston River in front of Pad 1 and Pad 2 is restricted with no fishing allowed per TVA due to the spawning season between November 1 - February 1. Fishing on other parts of the South Holson River including Pad 4 and Pad 5 is allowed year round.

Cleo's Place Pappaw's Fishing Pad #4

The cottage is great right on the river and very clean

Right on the River

Super nice place, clean and cozy. Definitely recommend for a weekend or any length of stay.

Super Nice

We recently stayed at Cleo's Place on the South Holston River, Bristol, Tn. Cleo's Place is now part of Papaws Fishing Pad and we feel you can not find a better selection of cabins to stay in Bristol and Bluff City Tennessee. We have been staying at Bob's cabins since 2015 and every stay has been a pleasant, enjoyable experience.

Long time guest

This was our second stay at Cleo’s Place. It is absolutely perfect. We love sitting on the porch by the river. The house has everything you need and is beautifully decorated. We will be back!

Second Stay

We had a great weekend relaxing on the deck overlooking the river. The cabin was very clean and well appointed. I suggest bringing binoculars to watch the bald eagles!
