About this property

The Boathouse Bungalow • Dale Hollow Lake 1 Minute Away • Free Firewood • Pet-Friendly •

Welcome to The Rockhouse – Your Dale Hollow Lake Getaway
Escape to The Rockhouse, 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 Rockhouse 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).

Very impressed! The hosts are VERY nice. Beautiful and just up the hill from Eastport Marina. As soon as you walk in, you are gently greated by a wonderful scent which stayed there throughout our stay (I fell in love with). Unique staircase which was fun to go up and down when you got used to it. This cabin had everything we needed for our stay even had shampoo, conditioner and body wash (we needed a lighter for the firepit though). Such a pleasure to stay there, even gushed to my extended family of how wonderful this place is as well as the hosts! My family will definitely stay here again when we visit Dale Hollow next!
