Rented their 82' houseboat. It was clean and stocked as we expected. The rooms were comfortable. The staff was super accommodating and helpful. Great experience all around.

Great marina and restaurant. Rented a houseboat and couldn't have been happier. Few issues that were taken care of quickly. Beautiful lake

A beautiful marina on Dale Hollow lake! We rented a pontoon boat and the price was very reasonable! We arrived a little late so they gave us an extra hour to keep the boat out. The employees were all very polite and friendly as well as eager to please and make our outing a pleasant experience. The store is very clean and very well stocked with tee shirts, boating gear, and about anything you need for your trip. A little out of the way but totally worth the drive!

Rented the Eagle 90 foot houseboat. The accommodations were great except not being able to put toilet paper in the toilet. That was a bummer for some of our guest. The service at the Marina was exceptional and they responded any time we needed them. Mike’s Restaurant was very good.

The place was awesome. We rented a boat with a slide and a grill and couldn't be happier. My baby girl got to ride a boat for the first time and swim in a lake for the first time. Landscape was perfect, and there are a lot of places to park with skipping rocks!
