| We held our family reunion at the Rice Retreat in 2008 and 2009. We had 18 people and used both parts of the Retreat. We had an outstanding time each year. The house is very comfortable. We loved the modern kitchen and the entertainment center in the living room. The upper and lower decks were great places to enjoy the wonderful view. We had a great time and highly recommend the Rice Retreat. |

| Martin, thank you for allowing us to stay at your home on the lake. My wife Renee and I loved it. The view, the lake, the fishing, the wonderful home and the comfy beds. How could it be better! Please book us for a return visit next summer. I can't wait to fire up the grill on the deck. Thanks again, Harold & Renee. |

| We really enjoyed our stay at your home during the Thanksgiving holidays! Our family lives in Livingston this enabled us to spend a week with our loved ones, have a down home holiday dinner, and no one got in anybody's way. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us! |

This is our third year coming to the Dale Hollow area. We found this house by chance the first year, and wouldn't think of staying anywhere else. The view is spectacular and the home is wonderful and inviting. We have made this our yearly vacation rental as nothing else could ever compare. Many kudos to the Rice family for allowing us to enjoy their home! |

| What a great walkout basement. I've stayed here for years, and the finish done on the lower level this year adds so much to the house. The house was perfect! The lake was perfect! Allways a great summer getaway. Thanks for sharing it with us. |

| Our first trip to the Dale Hollow Lake area & our 25th anniversary. Twelve of us enjoyed your beautiful home, & all felt quite spoiled. I think we lucked out & found the best place to stay on our first trip to Dale Hollow, there at your home. After looking around the DHL area, there was very little that would outshine your place. The view from the deck was exceptional! The furnishings were lovely, the home was spacious, and well kept. Sunset Marina was a treat to visit. Even your neighbor across the road, & the cleaning person were friendly & good to meet. We hope to come back again soon! |

Three Couples really enjoyed the solitude of the area and the lovely home. The setting and the view is marvelous. We explored the area a little, but mostly enjoyed the quiet. The weather did not cooperate for us to get a pontoon boat, but that's ok. We enjoyed the grill and had steaks one evening (I have one like it at home). Also enjoyed the fireplace.

We’ve enjoyed your comfy home - - what a beautiful view & lovely deck! It would be really nice to have a couple floor lamps in the living area to facilitate late night reading.

Wonderful house – very clean + spacious. 3 families stayed from church; had a great time. The only thing we would suggest is more TV’s (for kids) and a basketball goal. If you ever finish the basement, a rec room would be very nice. (Pool table, games, etc.) Love the view! Plan on returning. (Left you a mixer). Thanks,

I booked the house last March for a fishing trip for 8 guys. To this day, we still talk about how nice the Rice property was, and it can't be beat for the cost. GREAT location, beautiful house, with an oustanding view. Thanks a lot, we really enjoyed it!

| Comment Text: Thanks so much for allowing us to share in your gorgeous Dale Hollow home!! Mike and I have been coming to Dale Hollow Lake for "over" 25 years. With kids that love watersports for over 20. There is no place else that can match up to the beauty and serenity of it. The Rice Retreat was absolutely everything it was said to be and more. It is beautiful and simply feels like home. Nothing better than sitting on the deck at the end of the day, with a cup of coffee, and looking out over the lake. Five stars!!! Thanks again to the Rice family. Mike, Terri, Brittany & Kyle Milbourn. |

HAD A GREAT WEEK! HOUSE + VIEWS ARE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. We’ve been coming to Dale Hollow for the past 30 years with our kids plus extra! This beats camping (almost). Looking forward to another stay!

We loved our week at Rice's Retreat. While the view was beatiful, the peace was worth the nine hour drive. We used to go to Cumberland, but when we first visited Dale Hollow two years ago, we couldn't believe how much cleaner the water was. A wonderful lake. If I could make one suggestion, I would like to see an umbrella added to the table on the deck. We had some very hot days, and we were unable to use the deck until the sun set. |

Thank you for loaning us your Lake House. We had an awesome time. We come down to Dale Hollow for smooth and warm water, and we got plenty of both. My 10 year old daughter came down here as a very tentative skier, and by the end of the week she was skiing like a pro! Great fun.
The house is darn near perfect. In fact, it felt much more like a home, and not a rental house, which is about the highest compliment I can pay. My wife and daughter both fell in love with the rocker in the family room, and I suspect one of those will be showing up at our house soon.
Your rental booklet is amazingly complete. We've been coming down here for many, many years, and we still learned a lot about the area that we didn't previously know. Nice touch, and much appreciated. I couldn't agree more with your comments about Tom and Angela at Sunset Marina. They are one of the biggest reasons we drive to this end of the lake.
Thanks again for helping to make this a very fun and relaxing vacation! |

We stayed at the Rice Retreat at the end of our Memphis/Nashville vacation. This place was gorgeous and the neighbors were friendly and helpful.
We went horseback riding at Pack Trips, just over the Kentucky border, and we spent one day down at the Marina on the paddleboats and at the beach.
My most memorable part of this stay was noticing that I've never seen so many butterflies, lightning bugs, and stars. The night skies were just breathtaking.
Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Very nice home! Very inviting; very clean and decorated very awesome! Had a wonderful time! We want our whole family to return so they can enjoy this as well! I don’t want to go home because this is soooo relaxing, but I do want to go home because I miss my girls! If we had forgotten anything, you would have had it here! That was nice, thank you!
