When comparing dollar-for-dollar in this tight economy, many large families are finding that affordable, and fun, vacations are as close as a trip to Sunset Marina and Resort on Dale Hollow Lake. While the economy tends to influence most families while planning their vacation destinations, many realize the value and memorable activities associated with a trip to the lake. Dale Hollow Lake, in North-Central Tennessee, overlapping into South-Central Kentucky, is within a day?s drive of more than 50% of the nation?s travelers. And the variety of activities while on the lake is extensive.
?Every year we listen to our customers as to what they are looking for when visiting the lake,? said Sunset Marina and Resort General Manager, Tom Allen. ?If there is something we need to add, we do it. Our object is to make their vacations fun! This year we added Paddle Boards to our rentals. They are becoming very popular with all ages.?
Jet skis, ski boats, paddle boats and the new paddle boards can be rented by the hour or day at Sunset Marina and Resort. But with the amenities on the houseboats, like VCRs, a swim platform, slide, and on some, even a hot tub, families find that grabbing some floats or a noodle for the water is a great way to spend the afternoon. Water games during the day, and board games or star-gazing at night brings families together creating memories that last a lifetime.
When staying on a house boat from Sunset Marina during a typical summer vacation, the price per person, per day, is generally less than most destination vacations around the country. For example, the 65? x 16? mid-size cruiser sleeps up to 10 guests. For two families of five who want to share expenses, the cost equates to less than $ 50 per person per day in peak summer months, less in late summer, or spring and fall. Even when you add in the cost of gas for the houseboat, the cost is still more affordable than many other destinations. Another huge advantage of house boating is that you bring your own food, so you eliminate the high cost of dining out ?on the road.? You have complete control over the expenses associated with your vacation. And of the type of food you eat!
Dale Hollow Lake has 625 miles of shoreline, so finding different locations and visiting different coves brings a new adventure daily. There are plenty of hills to hike, lots of places to pull into the shore and explore, public beaches and camping sites and of course a whole lake for those who enjoy fishing. Swimming, skiing, and even snorkeling and scuba diving are popular on this crystal-clear, shale-bottom lake. A week on the lake is unlike any other vacation.
Sunset Marina and Resort on Dale Hollow Lake offers three sizes of house boats, ranging from the 50? x 17? Family Cruiser, which sleeps up to eight, to the elegant, 74? x 20? Flagship, which sleeps up to 12. All three floor plans have queen size beds, full kitchens with all necessary cooking and serving utensils, and one or two full baths. Plus each houseboat has flat screen TVs, DVD players, Satellite Radio, blankets and pillows (bring your own sheets and towels), and a gas grill on the deck. Each houseboat features a top sundeck with a canopy to get away from the sun or enjoy the cooler nights on the water. Star-gazing is optional, but suggested by most lake visitors.
