Hollerback Hunt & Yacht Club, peaceful, family,pet friendly,private dock 6 Acres

Welcome to Hollerback Hunt and Yacht Club! Just kidding, there is no Hollerin', Huntin' or Yachtin', but if peace and quiet is what you're after then this is the perfect place to relax and unwind. We welcome those who enjoy nature and can appreciate and maintain the peaceful atmosphere that we and our neighbors cherish.

We are located in Altamont, TN which is an hour and a half from both Nashville and Chattanooga, and 45 minutes from Sewanee, Monteagle, The Caverns, Manchester and McMinnville. Altamont is approximately 2000 ft. elevation and temperatures are 10-15 degrees cooler up on the mountain than in the cities.

We are a family friendly retro cottage/cabin nestled in the trees on our 6 wooded acres next to a 10 acre spring fed lake, which keeps it full pool year round, and our own private dock and sun deck for swimming, sunning, floating, catch and release fishing and paddle boating.

Well behaved pets are welcome for a small fee but must be on a leash when off the property. They are also allowed at most local hiking spots.

Bring whatever you have that floats or use our 10 ft John Boat. (sorry no outboard motors allowed, but battery powered trolling and old school paddling are ok, paddles provided.

1.5 hours from both Nashville and Chattanooga and 45 minutes from Monteagle, Sewanee, The Caverns, Bonaroo, Manchester, McMinnville.

OTHER THINGS WE HAVE:

FIREFLIES, lots of them around sunset. Just like stars in the trees.

HUMMINGBIRDS, if the feeders are out you are welcome to add nectar to them. (1/4 cup sugar, to 1 cup boiling water, let cool, fill feeders) They put on a great show all day long near the front porch. There is usually a jug of it in the refrigerator.

DEER, they love to graze in the back pasture. Absolutely no hunting, but feel free to shoot them with a camera if you are lucky enough to see them.

RACOONS, so BAG and TIE and lock all trash in the cans on the back porch and don't forget to use the strap to keep them from getting into it, they are very clever. Garbage pick up is Monday.

BATS, yes, bats nest along the bluff and appear every night to eat Mosquitos, so we don't have many! but bring bug spray just in case.

BEARS, we have NO bears! Go to Gatlinburg if you want bears.

NEIGHBORS , we love them and ask that you not trespass on their property, not allow pets to roam the neighborhood, and keep music and loud noise to a minimum.

Thank you for checking us out! We hope you and your family will join us and make many wonderful memories here.

Much needed get away
We had a fantastic time. We loved getting up and having coffee on the front porch swing, and or dock. Kids had a great time fishing and swimming. The place was very clean and well equiped. Its out of the way which is perfect for us. Very pet friendly as well. Would love to stay again.

Great Stay at Hollerback
We spent Labor Day weekend at the Hollerback Hunt and Yacht Club - we had a great trip. Our three school aged kids and dog enjoyed playing in the water, riding in the boat, playing in the yard. When we weren't at the house, we were hiking on great trails and taking in amazing views. House is setup well - kids all slept easily upstairs, while we stayed downstairs. Location is wonderfully private and quiet - deer in the yard every morning. Great getaway for the long weekend!

Loved this little lakeside canin
Our families enjoyed the cabin and the lake. Fishing and kayaking were amazing. The wildlife was spectacular as were the stars. Very quiet place. Our only complaint was that the downstairs bedroom was hot, but it seemed to get better the longer we were there.

Great hideaway near lots of beautiful trails
We enjoyed our stay at this peaceful and tranquil property. Located on a very private lake and road, we felt like we were truly away from it all but still had the creature comforts. So many wonderful and beautiful hiking trails nearby combined with the clean and perfect temperature lake made this a paradise away from home.

Great place to get away
We were very happy with this place. We had so much fun swiming in the lake and playing volleyball! We drove to some nearby waterfalls on the dreary days which made it totally worth it.
