Defeated Creek Marina, located on Cordell Hull Lake, is one of the most beautiful lakes in Tennessee. Protected and maintained by the US Army Corps of Engineers, it is a finger lake of the Cumberland River. With its river feel, its is 67 miles long and almost 1 mile wide at its widest. Plenty of shoreline to explore and beautiful scenery. Cordell Hull Lake is known for its Bass fishing, amongst ot

her types. The Marina itself hosts numerous fishing tournaments throughout the year. Defeated Creek Marina, on Cordell Hull, is a scenic 1 hour 15 minute drive east from Nashville. We are located within a Wildlife Reserve and you are sure to see herds of deer, wild turkeys, foxes, rabbits, hawks, and more. Defeated Creek Marina offers a full service Marina complete with pump out station, restrooms, gasoline, oil, water toys, bait, beverages, snacks, and hand dipped ice cream cones! We have 72 slips available to rent year round as well as transient slips for your short stay. We rent both pontoon and sport boats. We have 10-14 passenger pontoons all with bimini tops and swim ladders. Most of our pontoons are equipped to pull tubes, which we also offer to rent. Really, there is no better way to spend the day with your family. Our sport/runabout boats seat 6-8 and are also great for tubing, skiing, and wake boarding. This is an awesome lake for water sports! Included in our amenities are rental cabins right on the lake with incredible lake views. Everything is included-linens, towels, pots & pans, dishes, utensils, grills, and television with DishNetwork, etc. All you need to bring is something to eat and yourself and you're all set for a relaxing, peaceful, serene getaway. If you don't feel like cooking, we have a full service restaurant steps away from your cabin. Book nightly and weekly. Call or visit our website for rates. We also offer RV hookups and tent camping and great prices. RV sites have 30 amp hookups and water. We are sorry, but we do not offer septic on these sites. Tent camping is steps from the water and we have planty of shaded, private spots. Creekview Cafe is the restaurant at the Marina. Enjoy your meal on our deck overlooking the lake and Marina, or order to-go for a picnic on your boat. Rumor has it that we make the best burgers this side of the Mississippi, hand battered catfish and hushpuppies, frog legs, shrimp, and plenty of other delicious southern style cooking. Hats off to our breakfast cook Gayle, who makes amazing omelettes, and Ashley and Lucas, who are sure to impress with their culinary skills and unique daily specials. www.defeatedcreekmarina.com
