Great place to stay

Beautiful property. Plenty of parking for vehicles or boat trailers. Plenty of seating on the deck and by the fire pit. The beds were comfortable. Everyone who went on the trip loved the property and we would definitely stay there again. It’s only about 20 minutes from Sunset marina, but I would recommend renting dockage at the marina If you are bringing a boat. The road to and from the marina is pretty curvy.

Great getaway, great property

Very clean property in quiet surroundings, with river just yards from cabin! Owner was very responsive when we reached out to them. We enjoyed a great getaway and were only 15 minutes or so from the nearest Dale Hollow marina.

Relaxing Getaway

Our family had a wonderful stay. The cabin was perfect and supplied all the necessities and more. Outdoors was beautiful. We tubed & fished in the creek, made s’mores over the campfire and played with Frank, the sweer dog. Thank you Jennifer for your hospitality.

Needed down time & exploring the area

Enjoyed the home and property. Kayaked a few time on river, fun while water was up! Dale Hollow Lake is a family favorite, spent most afternoons there. Unfortunately there for fire at Sunset Marina. People at marina were great and we were still able to rent pontoons. Good times!

This was an amazing cabin with a beautiful backyard! There is a river running through the backyard, my kids had the best time fishing and kayaking! The cabin has everything you need plus a lot of extras! It was very clean and you can tell the owners take great pride in their home and want to provide a great experience for their guests.

Awesome location

River made the entire stay worthwhile! The heavy rains the night we got there really got the river going which made it nice to float around on tubes(which we thoughtfully provided) And made for small rapids that the kids loved, along with the kayaks. However the rains brought a lot of humidity and bugs! Big bugs 🤪 bring the spray! The black stone was also great

Memorable Moments

It was a long weekend Friday -Mon a lot of rain prior to arriving and the river was high and a little rough, grandson’s went kayaking anyway and one of the kayak got away and went down river and grandson and girlfriend went to get it after a couple of hours of being gone, I elected to call had 911 nicest people to have around in an emergency. All ended well but a little more excitement than I was looking for on our first evening. The house was very nice and loved the s’mores display for us. The family spent Saturday riding the rapids over and over having a great time until rain came back. That night we made s’mores around the fire. We spent Sunday playing games due to the rain and still had a wonderful time! Great place and Jennifer is wonderful and very helpful.

The BEST time you'll have right on the beautiful river!

This place has everything a family or a bunch of friends could want to unwind! Peaceful porch vibes, chill in a kayak/tube on the river, hunt for cool rocks, relax by the fire and explore the 5 acres - there's so much room for activities! There's plenty of space in the house with a fully stocked kitchen and a dining room table that makes you feel at home. The wifi is fantastic and the smart tv was also a fun blessing on the rainy nights! Traveler's tip - always bring some teenagers with you to haul all your groceries and gear up the steps! We will definitely be back soon!

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Lancaster

Host profile image
Our family loves to spend time together enjoying the outdoors. My husband and I grew up going to Dale Hallow lake some of our fondest memories are of the time we spent there. We wanted to spend more time here with our family and friends so we began looking for a place on the lake. Everything we found on the lake had a view of the lake, but was still a 10 min drive to get there. Our real estate agent told my husband about a place that was still close enough to the lake, but it was actually on the river.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the property when we first saw it. It is so beautiful with its huge trees, natural wildlife and amazing location right on the river. Our family and friends have grown to love the place and we enjoy spending time here year around. My favorite thing to do is to sit on the porch in a rocking chair and listen to the peaceful sound of the river-it doesn’t get any better than that!!! In the spring, fall and winter we enjoy exploring the river and hiking in Big South Fork and other state natural areas .My son loves fishing on the river and Dale Hallow Lake. In the summer we love to spend the day on gorgeous Dale Hallow Lake. We hope everyone can come enjoy this beautiful area of Tennessee and make their own treasured memories.

What makes this property unique

Private peaceful setting to explore the Wolf River
