Property is just as it looks in pictures and exceeded our expectations. Location is fantastic as it is located near jumping bridge but in a cove where you don't have to worry about boats flying by while you're in the water. The host was absolutely fantastic. We had issues with our boat and she went above and beyond trying to help us have the best trip by suggesting rentals and things to do without a boat. Would love to go back again!

We had a party of 18, 11 of them being children. We had plenty of room to hang out and sleep. The dock was beautiful both morning and daytime and the kayak usage was greatly appreciated. The kitchens are stocked and well equipped to fix any meal. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this cabin to anyone with a large party.

The cabin was absolutely beautiful and just as described. Our large extended family, ranging in age from 3-80, had a great time being together. The owner made sure everything was ok and the property manager ensured everything was in working order. Nephews wanted the Xbox fixed and she sent someone to fix it even though the parents said it wasn’t necessary. I highly recommend this property.

Amazing

Having visited Norris Lake once before, we had an idea of what we were looking for on our next trip. This house fit the bill for 23 family members to enjoy the sun and lake for a week. Lots of bedrooms/bathrooms, and the kitchens were very well appointed with all that you need. The dock with the raised deck was great fun for all. Boating is a short troll in the no wake zone out to the main lake. We are looking forward to booking again!

Amazing Property & Great Experience!

I can't say enough good things about this rental. The house is perfect for all sizes of groups. Having the private dock with water slide, deck, and access to two kayaks made for an easy adventure on the water. The location close to the nearby marina made jet ski and boat rentals super easy, too. The owner and house manager were excellent and any inquiries were immediately responded to. The house was also extremely well stocked with kitchen needs, games, DVDs, etc. Nothing was overlooked. Would definitely stay here again!
