Our family had a reunion in TN, June 2007. Most stayed at another resort but there were not enough cabins for everyone so a couple of families stayed at Piney Point.

Although the other resort had more modern cabins, and a restaurant on site, the cabins and boat rentals were more expensive. The driveways were very steep, long walk down a lot of steps to get to the lake, nice balcony with a minimal view of the lake as you had to look thru a lot of trees to see the water.

Overall I was much happier with our Piney Point cabins. The area was not as crowded, the cabins although a little older and more rustic (like a cabin should be) were neat, clean and comfortable. Nice front porch with table and chairs with a beautiful view overlooking the lake. A picnic table out front, a grill for cooking out and small clothes line to hang wet swimsuits.

Cabin has air-conditioning, your basic kitchen with refrigerator, stove, small microwave and , includes a small variety of pots, pans, dishes and silverware. All towels for bath and kitchen are provided, just bring your own beach towel! Living room with couch, inn table and chair, a TV that picks up a few channels, and a dining table that would seat 6. The bathroom has a shower. We had a 2 bedroom each bedroom had a double bed and a twin bed so could easily sleep 6. Bedding is all provided. They also have one bedroom cabins and an A-Frame that holds up to 10 I believe. .

Piney Point's cove doesn't have a lot of boat traffic so it is quiet, peaceful and serene. You can fish off of a few different docks, or rent a pontoon boat or a fishing boat for very reasonable prices. Piney Point has 2 paddle boats FREE for guests to use. We spent an enjoyable time paddling around the lake one afternoon. They have a nice swimming area with a dock for sunning and floats for guest to use.

The owners, Wayne and Jane were getting ready to open a volley ball court on the beach. The have been updating the cabins and grounds as time permits and were so friendly and accommodating. They made us feel very welcome.

They come around and clean the grills, pick up used towels and provide fresh ones and ask if there was anything you needed. Jane looked up information on the internet for us and let us use their land line to make calls and reservations to go White Water Rafting. Wayne gave us some tips on where to eat in town and fishing in the area. They are the nicest people and seem to really enjoy their guests and want them to have a good time.

The cabins do not have phones, neither did the other resort. Unfortunately cell phones unless it is Verizon can't get signal due to all the trees and hills. But it's a vacation who needs a phone?

Another BIG PLUS, they allow pets for those of us who hate to leave our furry families behind. My brother brought their 2 doxies and they only charged a one time $5 fee for each animal for the whole week, which is VERY reasonable.

They also have a fire ring area where you can build a bonfire and look out at the lake. Plenty of woods and trees everywhere if you like to hike or explore.

The walk to the dock and lake is short and easy, across your yard, cross the road and down a short sloped grassy bank and your are right there! No millions of steps to go up and down.

The office has movies, and books for guest to use. A few basic supplies, ice, bait and some T-Shirts, coffee cups and mugs reasonably priced for souvenirs.

We had a great time. Was fun and relaxing, my brothers family and I hated to come back home to Kansas and Missouri. There web site has good information and pictures so you can get an idea of how the resort is set up and how pretty the area is. I hope review helps you. I would definitely recommend this resort.

We had a family reunion here in May of 2006. It was a great place as we all had our own cabin, but it was easy to plan and eat together. The grills were perfect, the weather was great and the fishing was unbelievable. We hope to plan another reunion there this year. Faith Marshall

My family and I spend a week every year at Piney Point. We have so much fun. The scenery is great, the fishing is excellent. It is also nice to have a beach to swim at If you have young ones. The owners are also very nice.

If you love a little rustic setting, quiet atmosphere, beautiful lake. This is the place to stay. Fishing is great. The owner's are fantasic. We have been coming for years. Our kids love it. It is great for boaters or someone who likes to fish. Can't wait to go there every year.
