Perfect

We had such a great time!!!! The house was perfect. The lake was beautiful. House was clean and loved all of the amenities included. Providing the bedding, laundry detergents, toiletries a plus as well. So much seating and room for everyone to spread out. We used the paddle boards daily and loved sitting on the dock.

Paradise Inn is an Oasis close to home.

The property is clean, and well kept. Plenty of space for 3-4 families and the covered dock with three boat spots is a huge plus. Thanks for an awesome weekend. We’ll be back for sure! Gave minus one star for property description as the house is listed as “144” on VRBO when actually it’s “104”. Not a huge deal but caused some confusion initially amongst some of our guests.

Our stay

Our stay was great the only down fall we had was the heater was not working when we got there and the hot tub had issue the property manager did come out to work on the heater for us but it just took a while to get warmed up in 30s weather and someone was suppose to come look at the hot tub but we never got information back on it they did have some caution tape on one deck for some reason but like I said the property manager did his job like it was above his head on the other stuff. And they need new cleaning people the bathrooms and kitchen area not so clean at all I had to clean up a little before we used anything.

Great Multi-Family Getaway

We had 3 families and a total of 10 people stay for a long weekend at this property. We arrived after dark and the narrow country roads made finding the place a challenge, especially with the boat and jet skis in tow. Once we dropped the trailers at the marina, we were able to find the house. Everything was as advertised when we arrived. The house has tons of space with bedrooms tucked around every corner. The beds were comfortable and everything we needed was provided. The owner was very communicative and accommodating. A short (5 minutes) idle out of the no wake zone led to some of the best skiing water I've ever seen. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you for everything!!!

Perfect family getaway

This property was all we had hoped for and more! Location was perfect for our family with young kids. Nice quiet no wake zone, so kids could swim freely without worry of speeding boats. House was plenty big for our group of 6 adults, and 6 kids. House was stocked with everything we needed! Kitchen had every appliance, and tool, and enough dishes for everyone ! Trash has to be bagged, we had plenty of bags, but make sure you have extra with you, just in case. Flat Hollow marina is very close, but we were a bit disappointed with their supplies. We were very happy that we took all our food for the week. Parking was no issue for our 3 vehicles. We were amazed at how beautiful the water of Norris lake was. It was a hot week, and we were so thankful for the warm, clean water to swim, and float in. Have never seen water like it anywhere else! Manger was great to work with, very quick to respond! Thank you for sharing this beautiful property!!!

Our group had a great stay here! The place was clean and well-stocked, and the location was great. We appreciated that the living room has plenty of seating, the dining table is spacious, and there are TV stands and a nice game selection in the living room. We also appreciated the second fridge downstairs and the labeling in the kitchen which made it clear where everything goes.The host sometimes took a while to respond and the check-out guidelines were a bit confusing, but these were minor things and I believe the host is working on them.A few small things to be aware of (which may also be clear in the listing, but just fyi!): -The top floor/attic room doesn't have a door. -The house does not provide shampoo, conditioner, or body soap.-When the lake is low like it was during our visit--and especially if it rains!-- getting down to the dock can be a bit treacherous. This is a problem for nearly all the houses in this strip (not just this one), so just an fyi to be careful!We've stayed in a number of places in Flat Hollow and would definitely recommend and return to this one!

Great location right on the water. Very comfortable home with everything you need for a wonderful lake get away. Hot tub, kayaks, paddle boards, great dock. There are a lot of stairs to get down to the water but it is manageable for most people.

Fun in the sun

Outstanding time for all, only drawback ended up being a clogged shower drain and we noticed an aged deck board (rotted) near the large eating table on the deck off the kitchen. Blocked it with an article of outdoor furniture to prevent a child from possible boo boo

Family gathering at the lake

Property manager, excellent communication. Overall the house was tired. The two bunk rooms in the basement were without windows and closets, did not expect that. We had no electricity in upper two bedrooms, but they refunded us some money which we appreciated for the inconvenience. Parking is tricky but worked for five cars. Had lots of fun and made great family memories!

Disappointing experience

We showed up to the property after 10pm with 6 tired kids, only to realize that the door code we were sent did not work. As there was no reception at the house, we had to load everyone back up and backtrack 15 mins down the road to get enough reception to call the property manager. The next morning we were excited to get on the water, only to realize that the box with the life vests was locked with no instructions on where to get a key. Another hour wasted while we waited for the property manager to come out. The house smelled bad and looked run down. The hot tub was not filled enough so the jets were spraying into the air, and the water faucet was locked so we couldn’t add more. The chlorine floater was empty, so the hot tub very quickly began looking like dirty bath water. The dock area was very nice, but we definitely did not realize how steep the path to it was and the sheer number of stairs to get there.

Great house on a beautiful lake/river

We had a great time visiting some friends I haven’t seen in years. The house was plenty big enough for the 12 of us with beds to spare. Lots of stairs to get to the boat dock, you’ll get a nice workout in. The kayaks were a blast and the water was great. Overall it was a great place to stay.
