Hatch | Fishing Lodge on the South Holston River

**Rates $335 - $395 per night**  The Hatch is the heart of Tailwaters Lodge—a spacious 3,500 sq. ft. retreat perched a short 3-minute walk from the world-renowned South Holston River. Designed with larger groups in mind, this three-level lodge offers six bedrooms, two kitchens, and ample gathering space, making it the ideal choice for family reunions, corporate retreats, fly fishing groups, or private celebrations.  Lower level  has one bedroom (one king bed and one twin bed), main floor has three bedrooms (1st bedroom - one queen bed, 2nd bedroom - queen and two twin beds, 3rd bedroom - queen and one twin bed), and upper floor (1st bedroom - queen and two twin beds, 2nd bedroom - queen and one twin bed) totaling 6 bedrooms, 1 king, 5 queens and 7 twin beds.

Guests can walk straight from the front door in waders to access over 500 feet of private river frontage or drive their vehicle down to the river.  The Hatch is located approximately 400 yards from the river with the river wrapping around the property.  Or set out with daypacks to explore scenic river trails and nearby portions of the Appalachian Trail. For racing fans, Bristol Motor Speedway is just 15 miles away, providing an exciting daytime adventure before returning to the tranquility of the mountains.

Inside, The Hatch is designed for connection and comfort—with two well-appointed kitchens, 2.5 baths, and a dining area that seats up to 24 guests. (Max 12 lodging guests at the Hatch) Two private entrances (front and rear) provide added flexibility, with the upper entrance reached via a scenic stone walkway and expansive 16' x 25' deck. Evenings invite storytelling around the outdoor firepit or relaxing beside the indoor gas log fireplace.

The Hatch is often used as the central hub for our hosted fly fishing experiences, team-building getaways, and curated group stays. Whether you're planning a multi-day fishing trip with friends, a wellness-focused offsite, or a family milestone gathering, Tailwaters Lodge offers turnkey solutions, local guide partnerships, and unforgettable riverside hospitality.
