Welcome to The Bluff – Your Dale Hollow Lake Getaway
A cozy studio-style cabin just up the hill from beautiful Dale Hollow Lake and East Port Marina. Whether you're planning a relaxing weekend or a full week of lake adventures, this peaceful retreat offers the perfect combination of comfort and convenience.
Inside, the cabin features an open living space with a fully equipped kitchen, a queen/XL twin bunk bed, a separate full bathroom, and a charming loft with two additional XL twin beds—ideal for families or small groups.
Step outside to enjoy the laid-back atmosphere and relax by one of two shared fire pits. Complimentary firewood is provided to make evenings under the stars even better. Planning a group trip? There are two similar cabins on the same property, available to rent separately for larger gatherings.
Located in the scenic Upper Cumberland region, The Bluff is a quiet and convenient home base—just a short walk or drive to East Port Marina, where you'll find boat rentals, a seasonal bar & grill, and a public boat launch. It’s also within day-trip distance of Nashville, Knoxville, Chattanooga, and Gatlinburg.
Guest Access
Guests have full access to the cabin, both communal fire pits, and private trailer parking located just behind the cabins.
Communication
We're here to make your stay seamless. Feel free to message us through the VRBO platform at any time before or during your visit.
We are happy to allow pets for no additional fee, but would like to be informed if you are bringing your pet. Excessive pet mess (hair, damage, waste, etc.) that requires additional cleaning will be subject to a fee. Dog bowls and beds available upon request. Please pick up after your animal and keep animal on leash at all times.
Smoking/Vaping is allowed outside the cabin, but cigarette butts must be disposed of properly in the provided receptacles.
The cabin is one of three onsite that can be rented separately or altogether. While there is ample privacy at each cabin, we ask that you be respectful of your neighbors during your stay (excessive noise to a minimum, communal fire pits trash free).

About the host
Hosted by Lee DeVries
Growing up and spending my life in the beautiful surroundings of Alpine, TN, I have developed a deep connection with the majestic mountains that I proudly call home. Exploring these natural wonders is one of my greatest joys, often accompanied by my beloved dogs on long walks or while relaxing outdoors with a good book. In addition to being a registered nurse, I gained valuable experience over a decade working at East Port Marina on Dale Hollow Lake, a family business on my husband's side that focuses on travel and tourism. I began my career there as a cleaning girl and waitress, gradually advancing to roles involving direct client interaction as a manager and office clerk. After my tenure at the marina, my husband and I embarked on an adventurous journey across the United States, staying in a variety of rental properties. This experience offered us a unique perspective on the vacation rental business, allowing us to see it through the eyes of the customer. With this insight, I discovered a passion for hosting rentals, ensuring that each guest feels welcomed and comfortable. I take pride in offering a rental experience that travelers can enjoy, especially those with furry companions, as pet-friendly accommodations are very important to us. This commitment to providing a delightful stay is a reflection of my love for creating a welcoming and enjoyable environment for all.
