- Nearby is a large National Trout Hatchery which stocks hundreds of thousands of trout in these waters in addition to the abundant native Rainbow and Brown trout population. -- Want to go for the biggest and best? Some of the finest guides in Kentucky are available upon request.
Our area is nationally known for its deer and turkey hunting. See them often from your front porch. Nearby Dale Hollow Resort boasts one of the top 30 golf courses in America. Our guests enjoy Pool privileges at the Tompkinsville Inn.
Something to do when not chasing the big one? There is golf, boating, kayaking, and canoeing on nearby nationally known Dale Hollow Lake.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2006
We're well into those 'golden years' and way back when I was a high school educator and coach I longed for that fantastic fishing hole - you know, that secret place you knew when you were a kid. After long searching we found it and built it as our intended full time refuge. I know you'll love it just as we do. Only wish we could spend more time here!
Why the Owner Chose Burkesville
Today even the 'so called' pristine spots are pretty well developed. That's fine and there is plenty of that within 10 to 30 miles, but what we really wanted was a great fishing retreat far away where the fish are big, bite obligingly, and the birds and deer share life right up to the doorstep. We're blessed and believe you'll feel the same.
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
Nothing says wilderness like riding the only free public ferry in Kentucky as you cross to this quiet place of refuge. The river murmurs just outside your door, a constant companion and, on those misty mornings you look out on the fish jumping in the golden light of dawn. It's not heaven, but you can see heaven from here!

This followed heavy rains and the "swift" was less than 4MPH. The river was back to normal within 3 days. RHM
