We had a great visit. The house was very nice and the weather was perfect! Walkway to the dock was steeper than it appears but not terrible. The cove is nice and quiet, not a lot of boat traffic.

If I could give more than 5 stars on communication I would! Gunner was great with answering questions and being so helpful. This home was great for our family, the rooms were nice and spacious and very clean. It was a great location on the lake being quiet but yet close to the big water. We will definitely stay again.

We had an amazing stay at this Norris Lake property and would absolutely book it again. From the moment we reserved the house, the owner was outstanding to work with. Communication was excellent—responsive, helpful, and proactive throughout the entire process.The home was spotless when we arrived and very well maintained. The views of Norris Lake are incredible, and we never got tired of sitting on the deck and taking in the scenery. The lake itself was beautiful, with crystal-clear water that made swimming and spending time on the water a highlight of the trip.The kayaks were a fantastic bonus and were enjoyed by both adults and kids. We also rented a boat, which was a great experience and allowed us to explore more of the lake’s coves and shoreline. The dock is one of the best features of the property—easy to access, spacious, and perfect for swimming, relaxing, and tying up the boat.This home delivered everything we were hoping for in a lake vacation: a beautiful setting, a clean and comfortable house, excellent amenities, and a host who truly cares about their guests’ experience. We made wonderful family memories here and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a great Norris Lake getaway.The

Norris Lake

The property was in a great location, quiet cove, cute house. Our only complaint is the downstairs bedroom could use window coverings on the doors, and there is a birds nest on the dock which made for bird poop on our boat everyday.

Yearly trip 2023

We love this house. It is very clean and the beds are SO comfy. This is also our favorite neighborhood to stay in on the lake. We definitely will be booking this home again and I’ve already shared the listing with other friends who would like to book this house as well. Communication 100% thank you so much for making our yearly trip so cozy!

Overall, stay was very good. Advertised as expected, host was responsive, accommodating and met expectations. Home was clean, very spacious, with a beautiful view of the lake. Only issues would include parking set up and hot tub. Parking is at a very steep incline and makes parking a little more challenging, along with packing, unpacking etc. Hot tub was nice amenity; however, the chemical levels probably need to be adjusted, as the hot tub bleached all of our kids swim suits and also gave them chemical burns on their skin. This probably sounds worse than it was. We survived, but it was annoying and frustrating for the kids who wanted to be in the hot tub all of the time. Overall, very good stay, though, and would go back

Amazing!

The property is even better than listed. Extremely clean - both inside and out! The location is perfect with a nice walk down to the water. Although it is steep, it is fairly easy for most properties in the area. Owners and managers were responsive and helpful. One of the best I ever rented!

Perfect family getaway

Just left this beautiful lakehouse and we are so sad. We had the best week with our family of 11. So many great memories on Norris Lake. The owner was so quick to respond each time I messaged him. Very helpful. So nice and easy to have the pier and easy access to the lake right out the back door. Perfect getaway on the lake, we did not have to leave the property for anything except boating. Amazing week and already planning for next year!

The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Renting the boat was a very easy process. The host comminicates promptly. It is located in a quiet part of the lake with minimal lake traffic noises. The views are beautiful. Be prepared for a steep drive down the driveway and a steep walk down to the dock - both are worth it! My only complaint is that the ground floor bedroom has full windowed doors (one facing the driveway and the others face the deck with the hot tub) and do not have any window coverings. Blinds or curtains to give the option of privacy is definitely needed. The house had plenty of firewood for evening fires. The beds were very comfortable. Bring an extension cord for anything you need to charge on the nightatand as there are no outlets by the bed on the lower floor. Plenty of towels available. And laundry is available if needed. Would definitely stay again.

To Steep For Me.

First let me say other than a few minor broken items, the home is very nice. The home is located on a one lane road on the side of a mountain. The driveway is unbelievably steep and the walk down to the dock even steeper. By afternoon no one wanted to go down to the dock because of the walk back up or walk up that driveway to get in a car. You share the driveway with home next door and it can be a little crowded. Nice home, just too steep for us.

Thank you for your review & sorry to hear that the hill was too much for your party. We just want to point out that we have it listed in the description about the walk to the dock & steep driveway as well as having numerous pictures in our listing to accurately depict the grade. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again at one of our other properties. Thanks!

Norris Family Vaca #10!

Our stay at this little cottage was a welcomed summer break! Lake access and the house location on the lake was perfect! The cove where the house is located is very large and very quiet. It's off the main body of the lake but not your typical cove location! With two littles this year there was a quiet and wave free place for our five year old granddaughter to become more confident in her swimming abilities! The house accommodated our party of seven adults and two kiddos. The decks were wonderful places to gather for breakfast and late evening games. The hot tub was a plus for the two year old who still isn't quite sure about the BIG lake! Having anccess to a rental pontoon that was waiting for us when we anrrived was a big plus! It was used every day! Everything was wonderful! The path from the house to the dock is very steep without railings, which proved challenging for the older adults (I am still on the rehab side of a knee replacement!!) but by the end of the week, it seemed to get easier! If we could changed anything, it might have been nice to have one more bathroom and another ice maker, as only the kitchen refrigerator made ice! We just purchased ice but the access to ice was limited in the house when we used it to pack coolers in the morning! Thank you for helping us create some AWESOME memories!!

Wonderful!

Fully stocked kitchen with plenty of sheets & towels. The walk to the dock was a breeze due to a full sidewalk & short distance. Instructions for who to contact IF we needed anything were crystal clear as were the instructions for how to leave the house upon dismissal. Our cove was lovely & the kids played in the water everyday & fed fish every morning. Highly recommend!

Great place and location

We brought our own boat last week in June. The cul de sac cove is quiet and great to swim in. Take the boat for 5 min and you’re out in the main channel. This side of the lake is not busy but still close to Bubba Brews. We had smooth water all week. House is well appointed for 9 people with included bedding. 2 bathrooms is enough. Kitchen was great. Hot tub works. Enjoyed the fireplace. Dock was great. Driveway is steep but didn’t bother us. Walk from house to dock has a newly paved concrete sidewalk. It wouldn’t be easy for elderly or those with bad knees. Our group was aged 13-45 and didn’t stop us from having fun for a week.
