We came down to Dale Hollow for a week house boating. I will start by saying that the boats were clean and nice for 10 year old rental house boats. The lake is amazing. My only complaint is the staff at the marina. I had called the Friday before we were to arrive on that Monday and asked if we would be allowed to board early if the boat was ready. I was told that we could. When we arrived on Monday around 9am we checked in (not expecting our boat to be ready that early) and let staff know we were there and ready so we could get our boat when it was ready. We were told it was an extremely busy weekend and the boat wouldnt be ready till 3. It is in the print that check in is 3pm. That is pretty standard for most house boating places but Ive always been told "you can get it when its ready" and that is usually earlier than the time said. We decided to take our bowrider boat out on the lake to explore for a few hours but noticed that the whole marina was very quiet with not really any employees around. We noticed only one houseboat sitting at the fuel dock and no one around. When we came back around noon to eat lunch and the marina looked the same. Very few employees and still the one houseboat, which ended up being ours, still sitting in the slip at the fuel dock with no one around. After lunch we asked if we could start at least loading our boat and were told it wasnt ready yet. We sat on the dock and waited till 2:40pm and after still not seeing anyone as much as touch our houseboat and asked again if we could load. It was just then around 2:50pm one guy walked in and asked "are you guys ready?" "go get your stuff." Once we got our stuff loaded a young man was trying to explain everything on the boat but could not answer any of my questions. He barely spoke and would just mumble that he would have to ask the boss. Once the boss came, he ran through some stuff and thankfully I have house boated before so I kind of know what I am doing. Every other place Ive house boated before had hustling staff that was preparing your boat to get it out asap. We sat there for hours when we were told over the phone that if it was ready we could get it. The boat was ready the whole time we were there and we were just waiting on one guy to show up and basically push us out to sea. Then we brought the boat back for fuel and water midway through our trip and told staff what time was the earliest we could bring it in on Friday because we had a long drive ahead. We were told 8 am. I said we would be there shortly after 8. We pulled into the marina and no one was around. I honked the horn a couple times to get help docking the boat. These arent exactly easy to dock if youre not use to driving them. Well, no one came out till after we had done it ourselves. Luckily I was able to dock it without a problem. Staff came out a few minutes later. The staff seemed friendly but the process was never explained and we were barely talked to. We had to ask and pry any information from staff. For being in the house boating business for 10 years, its no wonder there were several empty house boats sitting in the docks not being used. I will not be renting here again. We felt like a complete outsider.

My family and I stayed here in cabin 1 for two nights and it was just wonderful! We ordered some food from their restaurant and it was fabulous and the prices are affordable too. My son and I wanted to fish but we could not afford a boat rental this trip and fishing from shore is very difficult because of the terrain. Next time we hope to be able to rent a pontoon boat and fully enjoy the lake. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the cabin was VERY clean and tidy and the beds were awesome. The only problem we encountered was there was no wifi the entire weekend. We were not there to surf the net obviously but at night when youre winding down youd like to be able to check your email, etc...We did inform the office both days and we were told the problem was being worked on but unfortunately it never did work. There wasnt a cell phone signal at all but I blame our carrier Sprint for that. All in all it was a wonderful weekend and we will definitely be back. I am disabled and I think next time a pontoon rental will be the way to go for us as it would provide the best and easiest access to the lake!
