Dale Hollow Lake getaway tucked in the woods, one minute from the lake!

Little Bear Trap is the perfect home for your Dale Hollow Lake adventure. You'll be on the water quick; the home is less than 1 mile from Eagle Cove Marina's ramp and 9 minutes from Star Point. Dale Hollow has beautiful, clear water and is an excellent lake for wake boarding, water skiing, tubing, boating, and one of the best lakes in the country for fishing. The #1 and #2 national record smallmouth bass were both caught here at Dale Hollow. The hiking trails are some of the most beautiful and scenic in the nation.

Little Bear Trap features a large living room, 2 baths, a well stocked kitchen, and 3 bedrooms. Every room has a ceiling fan and the house is equipped with central air and heat. There is also plenty of room if you have air mattresses and we have 2 single cots that we can offer if you give us notice. The master bedroom has a king size bed, flat screen high definition television, dresser, and a private full bathroom. The American room has a queen size bed, a large dresser, a closet, and is decorated with rustic American charm. The Bear bedroom has a queen size bed, dresser, closet, and a sliding glass door leading out to the back deck. The American room and Bear bedroom share a bathroom located right off the living room. A washer and dryer are available for your use if needed.

The living room has a couch, loveseat, and a few chairs for lounging around. The large flat screen television has a great selection of high definition channels. We have a blueray/DVD player and over a 100 movies to pick from.

The kitchen is well stocked with service for at least 8 people. It features a stove/oven, microwave, fridge, toaster, coffee maker, pots, pans, knives, grilling utensils, plates, cups, mugs, silverware, dish towels, paper towels, and a few of the more used condiments.

Each bathroom is stocked with hand soap and toilet paper, but you should plan to bring your favorite toiletries and maybe a few towels.

The back deck is our favorite place! There is a porch swing, a large outdoor patio table that seats 6, a gas grill, a pitboss Kamado charcoal grill (ceramic egg), a few extra chairs, corn hole boards, stairs that lead down to the woods and a fire pit area with a few chairs for chilly nights. There's a tiny creek that leads down to the lake. It's a very steep drop behind the barn and fire pit area down to the creek bed.

We have a covered carport for your vehicle or boat. If you plan on fishing while you're here, there is a motion light to light up the parking area (for late nights and early mornings) and a power cord on the side of the carport to plug in your trickle charger.

The location of the home is Skyler Lane off of Eagle Cove Road, which is 2 minutes from Eagle Cove Marina but it is also around a 9 minute drive to Star Point Marina. Both Marinas offer boat rentals (fishing boat, ski boat, pontoon, jet ski, and canoe rental), boat slips and covered slips available.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washer/dryer, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Perfect location!

The location was great! Easy and quick access to the lake. Very quiet and peaceful in the evenings and mornings. The owners were very friendly and easy to communicate with. It had plenty of room for parking multiple trucks and a boat. We would definitely book this place again in the future!

This is our second time staying here. Great communication with the host and flexibility. Great location and well-furnished place! Car port and grills on the back deck with a great view of the woods make for nice evenings after a day of fishing. With any luck we'll be back next year!

Peaceful and relaxing stay.

I brought my dad, brother, sister and sister-in-law to Dale Hollow for several days. My dad grew up in the area and his family was evacuated when they created Dale Hollow. He wanted to try and find some of the places he remembered. We drove around the first day and then took a boat over some of the area where his family's houses stood. The last day he was able to find his grandfather's place which wasn't under water and few other places. The water wasn't clear enough to see anything below, but had a good time fishing and swimming. The house was perfect. He has trouble walking, so the ramp to the back porch was perfect! It was a short drive (1 min) to Eagle Cove where we rented a boat. We fixed dinner a couple of nights on the grill and sat on the porch. The house has three bedrooms and two bathrooms so there was plenty of room. We had the cutest hummingbirds visit! We had a wonderful time! I would highly recommend!

The house was very clean and having 2 bathrooms was a plus. Eagle Cove Marina is minutes away. Brandon texted all the information we needed for our stay. Check out was easy - sometimes there is a long list of things you’re supposed to do before you leave, not the case here. The road the house is on is very quiet. No traffic. There are a few restaurants in Byrdstown if you don’t want to cook. We enjoyed our 3 day stay!

Great property

We had 6 adults and two pups to celebrate my husband’s 60th birthday. The house was perfect for us. Loved the covered back porch - rained first night and we grilled and played games and enjoying listening to the rain. We were 5 mins from marina where we rented a pontoon boat multiple days. The host was wonderful and reached out - so friendly and easy to work with. We will be back!

Property was comfortable & not too far from lake. The only issue was there was no WiFi & no phone service. So perfect getaway from everything & everyone if you are looking for seclusion.
