Talley's Cabins and Breakfast By Dale Hollow Lake. Right Where You Want To Be!

Talley's Cabins' and Breakfast is a privately owned getaway nestled in the hills of Northeast Tennessee (Upper Cumberland Plateau). Comfortable, clean, and quaint. We are located in Hilham, TN in Clay County. This cabin is located on 47 acres that includes trails for hiking and enjoying the outdoors. There are multiple creeks and waterfalls on the property.

Some nearby attractions include Dale Hollow Lake, Mitchell Creek Marina, Standing Stone State Park, Cummins Falls State Park and we are only 20 minutes away from three quaint county seats: Celina, Gainesboro and Livingston. The larger town of Cookeville is 45 minutes away.

A stay with us includes continental breakfast for self-service within your cabin.

This Cabin includes:

- Large HD TV with Roku
- WiFi (500mg download)
- Hot tub
- Central Air/Heat
- Fire pit for those s’mores and hotdogs
- Beautiful views and large front and back porches with swings
- 47 acres of trails for exploring and hiking
- Multiple creeks and cascading waterfalls
- Fully stocked kitchen complete with microwave and coffee pot
- Tank-less water heater (It always aggravated me in places I’ve stayed and would run out of hot water! Not at TC&B!)
- King size bed
- Grill (Kamado style and picnic table)
- Games (eg., Monopoly, cards)
- Linens supplied
- Accommodates: 2

- No Smoking
- No Pets

We are in small, peaceful and secluded county. There are no interstates or major airports in our area. The Dale Hollow Lake area is truly a hidden secret and gem. Local TN folks knows just how beautiful the rolling hills and lake is. We are about 20 mins from the marina.

1.Please review our Guest Cabin Book from our website ( under General information. It contains all types of useful information about the cabin and area.

2.If you are GPS’ing your directions to us: Use 764 Hickory Lane, Hilham Tn.

3.It is always easier getting here in the daylight. These country roads are kinda dark at night

4.Please note there are no close-by grocery stores, so you may want to bring grocery’s with you, instead of getting here and then heading back out to a store (about 20 mins).

5.Cell service is extremely limited on the drive in; AT&T is non-existent, although a bar or two once at the cabin. Other providers are spotty.

Our area does not house the standard local chains/commerce. This is no hustle or bustle here :) Our local commerce are Mom&Pop shops offering the essentials and a heaping of country charm and hospitality.

As you drive down the gravel road of Hickory Lane, look for a large 6' tin rooster on your right by a large painted rock with our logo and sign on it. Turn Right onto gravel driveway and drive straight going through the red cattle gates. Drive straight down the driveway staying to your Right. At the bottom of the driveway turn Left and go straight to cabin #1 which just past the red barn.

We had a great time getting away from the daily stresses of life. It was a very relaxing atmosphere. Enjoyed the trails and hot tub. Bed was cozy. I love chickens and was tickled with the farm fresh eggs left in our cabin for breakfast! We are already planning to return!

A little slice of heaven
This is the second time we have stayed at Talley’s Cabins, but it won’t be our last! We LOVE it here. It’s a beautiful location, and it’s perfect for our long weekend getaways. The Talleys are always the perfect hosts and provide the cleanest property, the best breakfast items, and the easiest check in and check out processes. We have not been disappointed with anything ever. We will absolutely find a way to get back here before summer! (And maybe during summer!) Don’t miss out on this gem!

Quiet and secluded
This is the perfect place for a quiet getaway. The property was nice with some trails and lots of fossils to find. The cabin was tucked away, out of sight of any of the other cabins. It was clean and comfortable. Light pollution was minimal so the stars were bright and vibrant. And because the hot tub is drained and refilled before each check-in, it’s not overly treated with caustic chemicals, making it soooo much nicer than most vacation rental hot tubs. The free firewood, breakfast, and snacks also put this rental ahead of the rest. Definitely recommend.

We had a nice, relaxing stay and enjoyed the hot tub. It was very quiet and tucked away from the city, but not too far out. We were provided treats and breakfast foods. And, the bed was so comfortable!

Relaxing Getaway!
The peace and serenity of this cabin is exactly what we needed! We felt right at home with everything we needed for a getaway. They thought of all the details. I was able to work from home very easily here. You will not be disappointed booking with them. They are right around the corner if you need anything. We even purchased a few pieces on furniture from Steve's shop on-site. Such a great stay and can't wait to come back!

Absolutely beautiful property.
My wife and I stayed in Cabin 1, which was very private, for our first anniversary weekend. Talley's definitely exceeded our expectations. Cabin 1 had an extremely comfortable king size Tempur-Pedic bed, full kitchen, dinning table, couch, and TV. Oh, and a free breakfast too. The farm fresh eggs and blueberry puff were delicious. Outside there was a hammock, fire pit, Adirondack chairs, a picnic table, and a hot tub. There were walking trails right outside the cabin. Our only regret is that we didn't think of taking an anniversary trip sooner so we could have stayed longer. We'd love to go back again sometime, but we'll book in advance so we can stay a week or so because the weekend wasn't long enough. Thank you for a wonderful weekend getaway.

Cozy Romantic Getaway
My husband and I were looking for a weekend away from the hustle and bustle. We ended up finding much more than that! Steve and Dana's property is beautiful and private. The cabin was beyond perfect with hot tub, porch swing, hammock, and fire pit. The homemade breakfast berry puff was just the cherry on top, a very delicious bonus. This was probably the first vacation we have ever come home and felt truly well-rested. We cannot thank Steve and Dana enough for the most romantic and relaxing getaway we have ever had!

Cabin in the woods
Lovely cabin in the middle of the woods. It's a good drive if you want to go anywhere, but it's great for hiking or just hanging out in the hot tub. Fresh eggs in the morning, good internet, and lots of solitude; this worked quite well for me,

Little piece of perfection
We wanted a quick getaway to escape the city and explore some of the small town charm in Livingston and Gainesboro. Hilham is perfectly located within minutes of each of them, and the Talleys have the best cabin for privacy and relaxation. The cabin was adorably decorated for Valentine’s Day, and it was very, very clean. There were fresh eggs, blueberry fluff, and tons of snacks when we arrived. The Talleys went out of there way to make us feel so welcome! We grilled out and made a fire both nights, and woke up to have coffee on the porch and listen to nature. So perfect! We even met the cat, Ms, Kitty. She was the cutest thing! Even though we were on their property, we felt completely secluded and secure. So much so that we are already planning a trip back in the late spring.
