Very Comfortable
We enjoyed our stay in this very clean and up-to-date cottage!! The outside porch was not very clean but liked having the gate so our small dog could enjoy it with us while we had our morning coffee!! Found it extremely difficult to get our pontoon in to unload!! Gates are not wide enough to manage getting boats in and out easily!

Cute house but needs alot of repairs
House is on a narrow ditch lined road, with splitrail fence acriss entire front yard, with very narrow gates limiting access to the parking area. We couldn't get our pontoon thru the gates and needed to take it to the marina a day early, and had to pay an extra night to store the boat there till we could get it launched the next day. andparkin a reserved slip.

Nice place to stay for a few days! Close to the lake, plenty of kitchen utensils/cookware/dishes, clean. The only downfall was, the beds had fleece blankets instead of comforters. Overall I would recommend staying here!

Nice place close to view of Dale Hollow
Great place to stay and beautiful location. Home was very nice and provides everything you would need. Enjoyed riding around the neighborhood on UTV for the beautiful views. Also nice to have corn hole game to play. Only problem was a little difficult to get in the driveway with a long trailer. Would definitely recommend to stay here.

Great Little Hideaway
We really enjoyed the cabin. It was well furnished with everything you need for a nice vacation. We had fun playing cornhole with our friends after a day on DHL. We have a 21 foot boat and had no issues getting in and out of the driveway. However, some vehicles drive fast on the road out front. There’s a hill on the road so be cautious pulling out. The road to the Cove Creek ramp is pretty much one lane so the next day we decided to use the Sunset Marina ramp. The only issue we had with the cabin was there were no top sheets on any of the beds. We found some in the closet wadded up in a bag so we were not sure if they were clean. Also, the Roku remote in the living room did not have any batteries but I found that the remote in the bedroom would operate the TV in the family room. The yard was overgrown and could have used some maintenance. All and all is was a great place and we plan on staying here again.

Very nice property that supplied everything needed for comfortable stay. Especially enjoyed the front porch and grill on the deck. A little difficult to pull boat trailer into driveway, but we figured it out...we drove around the block and entered from the opposite direction.

Perfect House and Location
Perfect! The house was the perfect size for the two of us and our two dogs. Thank goodness for folks who allow pets (2). So close to the lake too. Just a five minute drive to Cove Creek Rec area with free easy launch. The house has EVERYTHING you need for a comfortable stay. Kitchen fully equipped, house is clean, quiet location, and THE BEST SHOWER. : ) Highly recommend this. **There is plenty of room for Pick up truck and 18' boat** We finally figured out how best to park after a few attempts. Would definitely stay here again.

Home base for the lake
The property was excellent, everything was clean and working with good amenities. It was hard to move the boat in and out of the driveway, but it was nice to have the yard and fire pit. The treager proved clutch in cooking some hot dogs for the kids, bacon for the wife and a steak for me. I'll stay here again the next time we visit Dale Hallow Lake.

We stayed at this house previously (it sold earlier this year). We were thrilled with the WiFi upgrade and a few other things that have been done by the new owners. It’s a perfect house for 4 people. We will definitely visit again.

The place was very clean. Had all the essentials we needed. Very close to the marina. Which was a blessing since we had to dodge the weather all week. Would stay here again. Only suggestion it would be great if you had a little shelf or someplace to put can goods.

DHL getaway.
The cabin was clean, very well furnished and convenient to the lake. We had an issue with the wood pellet grill, but Hannah promptly had it taken care of. The owner hadn’t installed the gas grill yet… The only drawback is access and parking. The property is in a nice, quiet neighborhood. It’s located as soon as you go over a little hill. So your turning in on a blind hill. Not a big deal if everyone obeys 25mph speed limit…which most folks did but several did not. The fence/gate setup makes the driveway access really narrow and there’s not much room on the street to swing wide. We had a hard time getting in and out with just our full size truck. Our first night of parking was really interesting (we had a slip rented at Sunset the remaining nights). We had our 22’ boat with us because the property had “boat parking” in the description. We barely got backed in the second entrance off the street with 4 spotters. We flagged down one of the neighbors on their side x side and they told us we could go out and around the loop the next morning since there was no way we were getting the truck and boat going the other direction. The cleaning ladies told us that the current owners had just bought the property virtually and had only just recently been there. I would suggest to the owners to remove the gates and angled sections of the fencing to utilize the full width of the driveways. It would also help to extend the driveway/culvert up the hill on the first entrance. This would really help with getting in and out and make it boat parking friendly since Sunset rarely has temporary docking and they no longer allow you to drop your trailer at the top of the hill.
