About this property
Cozy Cumberland River Cabin between Dale Hollow & Lake Cumberland. Dog friendly!
Paradise on the Cumberland River! Fish, Hike, Birdwatch, RELAX! 1,300 sq ft of awesome home perched above the trout filled Cumberland River. Watch the Otters, soring Eagles and listen to the owls, tree frogs and coyotes at night. We are about 8 miles down river from Burkesville and 38 miles downstream from Cumberland Lake. Twenty minutes from Sulphur Springs-Dale Hollow, forty minutes from Wolf Creek Dam and Hatchery Creek. The house is Victorian on the outside and cabin on the inside. The upstairs has a loft with a futon, upstairs bedroom has a queen bed and a pullout couch, shower and laundry. Downstairs Bedroom is a double bed, pullout couch and Full bath. The living room has a pullout couch and two oversized chairs surrounding the fireplace. My wife decorated this and I will tell you, you will love this place. Between the swing on the front porch and the beautiful back patio and river hammock you can choose your method of relaxation.
Sit by the fire, pitch horseshoes, fish and BBQ on one of the Wood, Charcoal or Gas grills over looking the river or get adventurous and try your hand at the Wood fired pizza oven! There are playing cards, cribbage, corn hole, crokinole and a dartboard if you like games. AC, Heat, Galley Kitchen, indoor fireplace, washer/dryer, sheets, pillows and towels. There is also wifi, Internet ROKU TV.
You can use the boat ramp that adjoins the property it is a community ramp that we maintain. You won't see the boat activity down here that you see in the first 15 miles down from Wolf Creek Dam, six boats a day is a lot. This a great base camp for large trout, striper and walleye. Book a trip with Gregg to see the river, fish for trout or learn to fly fish!

Had a great getaway for five days. The property was as described with great outdoor areas to sit and relax. Gregg communicated well leading up to the trip and was a wealth of information. The area was easy to find, quiet, several places within 40 minutes to visit (Dale Hollow Lake, Wolf Creek Hatchery, Burkesville)
The property was everything we expected. The back deck overlooking the water was very relaxing. The decor in the house I’m hoping this was probably the most interesting accommodations I have ever come across.I additionally the host was so welcoming and we felt very at home.
I truly enjoyed the property! I highly suggest it if you are looking for a peaceful getaway, and it there is some fabulous trout fishing. The kitchen amenities were great, which is all the more important when you are looking to get away from it all. I will definitely try to return with my Dad and nephew for a trout fishing excursion before the end of the summer.
Wonderful hosts appeared with fresh salad from their garden and a dozen eggs from their chickens. That doesn’t happen very often! . Love their property, very comfortable and right on the Cumberland River.
We had the perfect week of relaxation in a beautiful home on the river, and our dog loved it maybe even more. Very dog friendly, and the hosts are very helpful.

Awesome week! We enjoyed our stay here everything was great! The host was very friendly and hospitable! House was very clean. Loved sitting on the back patio watching the river and the hummingbirds. Very nice place for family memories!
Our first of many adult weekend away and a perfect place to stay. Beautiful setting as well as quiet!! Couldn’t ask for anything more for a getaway. Hosts were amazing and very kind.
This place is awesome!!It has everything you need and then some...Great area, beautiful home and super helpful people to deal with!!!Thanks Gregg and Gaylene!!!
This stay was amazing! We enjoyed the scenery and just some relaxation time. Our pnly wish is that we could have stayed longer. We left saying how much we needed to come back and stay again!
Absolutely beautiful and peaceful backyard with a wood cabin feel inside. It was a great get away for our family with the river views and so close to Dale Hollow.
Beautiful home! Excellent views of the river. The breeze off the river was amazing while fishing. Excellent hosts, very friendly and gave us some farm fresh eggs. Would love to stay against sometime!!
One word? lol thank you! The cake was delicious and the berries and mint were a nice touch! Hope to see you again.

Why they chose this property
Our dream has always been to live on a river full of trout and now its no longer a dream. If there is one thing about trout, its that they live in beautiful places and this is no exception. We love Burkesville its small town USA, we can go to the hardware store or grocery store and everyone knows your name. We have several like minded neighbors forming our little river community on Riverbrook Trail. We feel truely blessed to live in such a beautiful place.
What makes this property unique
The house is very nice, knotty pine, decorated nicely with river views from every room EXCEPT the bathrooms! The backyard is the crown jewel in my opinion. Nice lower level grassy area near the river is always cooler with a picnic table and hammock. Raised concrete patio with the gas grill, table and chairs. If you like outdoor cooking you can choose from wood, charcoal, gas or wood fired pizza oven. The house is stocked, you are going to over pack!!!
