About this property

Cabin on Dale Hollow Lake - Hike to lake

Situated approx. 100 yards from water on 5 acres at the end of a road. Very private. Hike to the lake, but only 1.3 miles to the highway and 10 miles to town. 2 miles to boat dock, plenty of land to enjoy. Trails to the lake for a ATV or a horse if you bring yours. The new swimming pool will be complete before April 2015 unless unforeseen circumstances show up. A new pool table is usable in the basement, basement has couches and walk out deck to back yard, along with two queen beds in one room and a complete bathroom. I recently added a fire pit down by the lake and left four chairs.

Dishes, silverware, bowls, coffee maker and cups, cooking pots and pans, blender, Crock pot, gas grill. Master Bedroom has King bed and Master bath, other two bedrooms on second floor are queen beds with bathroom between. All beds are new, Purchased 2/26/2014. Very clean and recently Painted. Screened in Deck on back of house facing Lake is 8' x 35'. Deck on front(8' x 35') and side and outside of finished basement(35' x 8' Deck) which faces lake. Small fire Place inside.

The county allows sale of Alcohol. Sunset Marina Cooks up a great steak and The River Grill serves up some good dinner and The Bobcat is good for breakfast. There are other eateries in Brydstown and is a 10 min drive from cabin. For those that like to eat very well, I recommend Craw Daddies in Cookeville and there is a very good Mexican eatery in Livingston, TN next to Food Lion.

The Marathon station has all the lures anyone could want if you plan to fish and need a few items. Live bait can be found at the Kwik Stop or at Sunset Marina where one could use for boat ramp, 5$. Also, the state park, adjacent to Sunset Marina, has a good boat ramp for 4$, State Park(2 Miles away) also has a beach. There are several Marinas around the lake and Dale Hollow is approx. 61 miles long with several fingers of water.

We have WIFI, TV in the Living Room and Master Bedroom has a DVD player. We are just getting started and although this place is awesome, It will only get better,..

Wonderful family retreat

We had a wonderful time. The house accommodated all 12 of us easily. Everything we needed was there, the house was clean and comfortable. The kids loved the pool and riding their scooters. Maria was a a great host. They treated us like family. Highly recommend.

VACATION!

This was one of the coolest places my family and I have ever stayed. Great location, beautiful house, easy access to the lake and marina. We will definitely stay here again. The homeowner was gracious and friendly. I couldn't come up with a bad thing to say about it if I had to!

On the lake, minutes from sunset marina!

Great location only 5 min from sunset marina. Plenty of room & parking. Pool was nice! Met our needs, minimal privacy. Wasn’t expecting to rearrange our plans when homeowners were using the pool with their visitors but we went to the lake so not a huge deal…pet friendly which was a selling point! Lot is heavily wooded & would be great for 4x4s. Sweet Maria left a note, was in communication often, & owner was regularly in eye sight if anything was needed. House was comfy. The grill, stocked kitchen supplies, screened in porch, fire pit all very convenient.

Beautiful peaceful property

Great place to stay. Well stocked kitchen. While there is a grill, we took a grate and cooked on the firepit. The pool is beautiful. DOG FRIENDLY! Owners are even fine with letting the dogs play in the pool. If you plan to go, plan to take groceries and cook. Not much to choose from in "town". There is a grocery store for last minute things. We will definitely be back!

Great house in a wonder location!

We loved this house and pool. It was super clean and comfortable, the pictures on the website do not do it justice. We had a fantastic time and would love to visit again. We brought our pontoon and the marina was so close and convenient. The only downside was the kids developed rashes from the pool, we think maybe the levels of chemicals were a little too high. We were also accused of taking 2 pillows from the house which really upset our families.

Pool was great!

We stayed for a week at the cabin in September with my family and parents. The weather was amazing so we enjoyed the pool every day. Unfortunately if it weren't for the pool, I would've given the property a two-star. The cabin was NOT clean when we arrived. The kitchen and bathroom floors had not been cleaned, there was hair in the bathtub, and most of all the toilets were not clean. Yuck! The cabin definitely needs some TLC. While the surrounding area is beautiful and the pool was a hit with my kids, the cabin needs some work. Many of the light bulbs need replacing, the box springs on a bed upstairs was broken, making the bed very uncomfortable, the bathroom sink in the downstairs bathroom was clogged, the bath towels look like rags, and the screened-in porch in the back has a huge hole in the screen. Overall, this could be an amazing property. especially with the pool, but the cabin needs some attention and a good cleaning.

The Perfect Escape!

This is our 4th year renting through VRBO and this cabin was my family's favorite thus far! We wanted to get away from the beaten path, hang out by a pool with family, friends, our dog, and just chillax instead of adhering to any kind of jam-packed itinerary. This rental allowed for a super-comfortable, safe, and fun week in gorgeous surroundings doing exactly that! The cabin was clean, the beds were comfy, the linens and supplies were plentiful, and while there were fire pits that we could have used, we didn't because the pool was so darned awesome! The owners were on site when we arrived and they are super-cool, animal-loving folks which we appreciated! There is a FoodLion close by so we enjoyed full meals in the well-stocked kitchen every day, cold beer, and bought more supplies for our group as needed. We had family pool tournaments downstairs and watched DVD's in the living room (BluRays aren't compatible with the current DVD player.) I really appreciated use of the washer and dryer in the cabin, the former of which is nicer than we have at home! We could see Dale Hollow Lake in the distance through the trees, which was lovely, but we weren't interested in venturing down there, again--because we were so happy to hang out by the pool and we aren't into boating. Our group consisted of 6 adults between 19-53 and everyone had a blast. I would def. recommend this cabin to others and return for another vacation here without hesitation.

Freedom Point- the best rental on Dale Hollow!

We immediately fell in love with Freedom Point! We took our boat, jet skis, and utv. There was so much parking space for all of them and for all of our cars and trucks! There were 7 of us who stayed all week, and others who came for a couple of days at a time. There was so much sleeping space in this house, no one was without a bed and couples didn’t have to share.. lol. The openness of the inside made playing games and family time a blast! This was, by far, the cleanest place we’ve ever stayed in. The previous reviews are definitely not accurate for 2023. The hosts were so friendly and accommodating. Maria went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, and then some. Thanks for all the goodies!! The pool is A-MAZING! Our little had so much fun swimming! (No need to bring a float) We loved the back (screened in) porch area as well for having morning coffee and another place for our little to run and play safely within our sight. It is located very close to Sunset Marina (we happened to be there during the fire at Sunset, very sad) which made it easy to launch and pull out our boats each day. (Didn’t want to pay the $50/day for a slip.) I just can’t say enough good things about John and Maria… The only thing we needed was another week to stay and enjoy this awesome place!

About the host

Hosted by John Pappas

I work nation wide building Permanent Grandstands. I can live anywhere in the country I want and after two years of searching, I chose this spot. I live 80 yards from the rental. The rental sits on 5.5 acres and backs up to the Corp. of Engr. Property. My home sits on 11.5 acres and both homes have their own drive. I grew up In South Chicago, I love Chicago, but this place beats that!!! Everyone that has ever been here, Let's just say it is an eye opener, a paradigm shift, therapy if you will;-)!!!

Why they chose this property

Clean and beautiful!!!!

What makes this property unique

One mile of Trail riding and privacy. Dale Hollow Lake. I love this place. I live approx. 80 yards away.
