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.

    The hosts were fantastic at communicating with anything I asked. Absolutely no issues first entering and zero issues for my stay. AC / heat worked fine with all amenities you needed in the kitchen if needed. Although all I really needed was the refrigerator and mostly the Keurig as all I did was fish. Honestly you couldn't ask for anything else as this place fit my stay perfectly.

    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 house is great for a fishing trip! Older home but clean. I would recommend bringing whatever you like to cook in as there were very few pots and pans in the kitchen. Super close to marinas, dollar store, grocery store, and the best pizza from Dale Hollow Pizza! The owner was very friendly and super accommodating. Thank you so much!

    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.
