About this place

Located between Dale Hollow Lake and Lake Cumberland, tucked in a Hollow down a quiet track, you’ll find a schoolhouse from way back. Built in 1919, cozy and sweet, with original wooden floors and charm complete. The creek hums low when the time is right, and summer skies glow soft and bright. Lakes are near if you choose to roam, but the Hollow feels like home. Spring blooms, autumn glows, winter hushes with snow; at Hidden Creek, time slows in a storybook place.
