About this property
Quaint cottage by the Lake
Enjoy this quaint cottage within walking distance of beautiful Dale Hollow Lake.
Although the cottage doesn’t offer a lake view, you’ll be extremely pleased with the convenient proximity to the Dale Hollow marina (at Cedar Hill) and its amenities. While here, take a trip back in time to 1955 and imagine the excitement within the fishing community when the Worlds Largest Smallmouth Bass was weighed in at the Cedar Hill marina. The historical swinging bridge at Dale Hollow is within a 15 minute walking distance from the cottage. Here, you’ll find a swimming area along with picnic tables and grills. The Dale Hollow dam and Cedar Hill Marina are both within view of the swinging bridge which make the location a nice place to relax and “boat watch”!
Thinking about setting a new world record but forgot the boat? It’s not a problem. Several marinas are close by and are happy to accommodate you with one of their pontoon boat rentals. Feel free to contact me for details. We do recommend that you arrange the boat rental in advance of your arrival to secure availability. If you’re looking for an awesome fishing experience, don’t hesitate to ask us about guide service. We work with a local guide who has years of experience on Dale Hollow and will be sure to make your trip unforgettable.

Communication was excellent with the hosts and they were willing to accomidate our families needs. The house was as advertised and very clean. The location is in such a beautiful area, so close to swinging bridge and swim area. I would definitely choose to stay at any of this hosts properties in the future.
Came to do some fishing and the location was perfect. Right down the road from boat ramp. House was clean and very cozy. Very cool cabin setting inside as well. Will be coming back
Property exactly as advertised, very clean and nice. Met an old friend there for a fishing trip and had a great time. The hosts were SUPER nice and responded right away on any questions I had. Would definitely stay here again.
Me and 3 friends took a fishing trip and stayed for 3 nights. it was a perfect location and a very nice place! beds were comfortable, property manager was flexible to change our dates when we got rained out. 5 out of 5
My husband and I had a great time during our long weekend. The cottege was exactly as the pictures showed-very clean and comfortable. Kevin (host) was great - we'll definitely be back.
We had a wonderful time at this little cottage. The host was very communicative and generous. It was very close to the Pleasant Grove Recreation Area. We spent one day hiking, exploring, and swimming. We spent one day in the cottage playing board games and watching movies. It was the perfect place to bring our kids. We loved all the fish decor and comfy beds. There was plenty of seating outside on the porch for sitting with a cup of coffee and a book. The kitchen had everything we needed. There were so many pillows and blankets. It was the coziest little house! We hope to come back in the near future!
This was a great place to stay for a fishing trip. Parking can be a bit challenging with 2 (20’+) boats but doable. Also had outside electrical outlets for charging batteries. We had everything we needed and were very pleased with the accommodations .
Excellent owner, communicates in a timely fashion, makes the extra effort to assure your stay is good. Cost effective, well appointed, clean, great location for ramp/lake access.
The property is as advertised. Plenty of room for a group. Everything worked as it should. Great location for our hiking adventures. Check in was a breeze! Highly recommend Dale Hollow Pizza for dinner… it was amazing!
The cabin has plenty of space and was very clean. Lots of things you need for the kitchen were available. I loved all the pillows on the beds. The property manager was super nice, allowed a late check out, and was very easy to contact.
This is my second time staying here and I'm sure we will be back
Great location to Cedar hill marina, extra parking, roomy house. All the things you need for a great vacation plus the little items you forgot to bring (coffee pot, utensils, fan etc.. ) Great place , owner was awesome and very tentative. Would recommend to anyone.
The house was close to the road, but had plenty of parking room and a nice deck, but several nails need to be fixed. Cozy place that had everything you needed. It's in the woods, and we saw 1 mouse, but you're in nature, still a clean place.
