Make Elizabethton your quiet base. Our pet-friendly cabins sit on five wooded acres about 38 to 45 min from Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Bristol and about 25 to 30 min from Bristol Motor Speedway — a night of shows, racing, or the casino floor, then back to a hot tub and woods instead of a hotel tower.
Stay at Monarch: two private cabins; pets welcome (they stay at the cabin, not on the casino floor). Compare Cabin A and Cabin B and book from Our Cabins.
