I've stayed in many homes on Norris and I think this has been my favorite. The lake access is rather secluded and the boat traffic minimal making for a very peaceful stay. Sara was an excellent host and I appreciate all of the communication throughout the process. Thank you!

Family Reunion Fun

We rented this home, and an adjacent for a bi-annual weeklong summer family reunion. The home provided lots of indoor and outdoor entertaining space to use and sleeping quarters that we could divide up for this who wanted to be further away from the common spaces. The docks are a lot of fun for the whole family too, and while there are steps to access, we all got used to it and the trip up and down is worth it for the beautiful views and swimming / water sport fun. Thank you to the host, who was helpful and responsive too!

Simply Amazing. Can’t wait to come back!

This house has it all - plenty of space, everything you need in the kitchen, comfortable beds and an amazing dock. The property is as described in the listing, but the photo's don't do it justice. We really loved the cute canvas welcome bag the owners gave us. Nice touch! Communication with the owners was easy and they were very responsive. Unfortunately, I had to do some work during this stay but the wifi worked great. The TV's are also smart, so you are able to log into your accounts and watch Netflex, Hulu, etc in the evening. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay and enjoy your very special lake house!

Second stay- even better than the first

We love this home and location! Close to Sugar Hollow, Shanghai, Deerfield, jumping bridge plus all the fun water/boating. When we're not out and about we LOVE hanging out on the double decker dock. This was our second time at Serenity Now and it did not disappoint. The kitchen has been remodeled and furniture replaced since our first visit. Very nice! There are two refrigerators, perfect for a large group. The whole property is well maintained and clean. The owner was quick to answer questions. We're hoping to stay again soon!

This property was amazing. The property manager was very thorough and easy to deal with and responded very quickly. The property was very well updated and stocked. The dock was amazing. This was one of the best houses we have stayed in at Norris Lake They even had a welcome package for us when we walked in. It was nothing short of amazing. Thank you so much.

Well Used

Couches were broken down and uncomfortable both in the main room, and in the lower levels the majority of the beds are uncomfortable, because mattresses are also well used and you roll to the center of the bed. Had a problem with mice had to get our own traps to catch no response from Local property manager property had two refrigerators yet they did not have one turned on but a sign on it saying it takes 24 to 48 hours to get cold. That doesn’t help when you bring a large family there with food and are unable to put it in a cold refrigerator . The dock was very nice, unfortunately, along the steps, 91 from the dock to the main floor, which we understood before renting the community. Pool area is poorly maintained, and parking and access is extremely difficult. Never went to the pool it didn’t appear to be maintained never saw anyone in the pool during our entire stay, very limited parking at the house yet others houses along the road were blocking turn around you had no one from the property management staff made the move. They just allow them to block the area overall would not stay here again.

Great property! The owner and property manager were both very responsive to a few questions/concerns that we had. The beds were very comfy. Weeds around the steps/firepit were a bit overgrown and housed a smelly black & white critter that hisses at folks as you pass by but it didn't deter us from the amazing dock! In our opinion the best part of the whole place. So many wonderful memories made. We will be returning to Norris next yr!

We stayed at Serenity Now 6/18-6/25/2022. The home was very clean upon arrival, the kitchen was very well stocked with dishes/cookware/utensils (Keurig made me happy too :), ample sleeping space for our entire party! We were a little bit confused about the lower level bedrooms and how to access them, but we got that figured out in short order! Overall, great location on the lake - we had a great time and would stay again/recommend to friends! Thank you!

We had a really great time. The house is very nice. It does have a TON of stairs, in the house and to get to the lake. Some are very steep. The beds were all very hard and the 2nd floor king bedroom had a tv but isn’t connected to anything so you can’t watch it. In all we had a good time and the lake is beautiful!

Good Family Vacation

Our family enjoyed the location but be aware it is called ‘Party Cove’ by the locals. The cove was a high traffic area and some of the neighbors can be loud partying and shooting off fireworks, but the house is great because we (especially the sleeping baby/kids) couldn’t hear anything inside. The rental is showing wear and tear. There were cobwebs, moldy shower curtains, stained/torn towels, toilet paper holders falling off the wall, the foosball table was broken, most the games had missing the pieces, and the Xbox in the loft didn’t have any games. The loft and 2nd floor stayed very hot during the visit while the basement was freezing and needed extra blankets. Individuals who stay in the bunk bedroom upstairs should be aware there are no closet or dresser to unpack clothes. We did enjoy having two refrigerators to keep ice and food. The Blackstone grill was amazing! We frequently cooked breakfast and dinner outside. We also enjoyed trash pickup was done frequently. The double decker dock was a huge hit with kids. They enjoyed jumping and sliding. One thing to consider is the top dock and pool do not offer any shaded areas, so you may consider bringing some umbrellas to get a break from the sun. We reported two issues during our stay. The lock from the lake into the house stopped working. The different code provided didn’t work and no one showed up to fix it. The second issue was the fire alarms going off throughout the house. The fire alarm in the basement appeared to be the issue due to a leak in the ceiling. We disconnected the detector to stop the alarms and reported it, but again no one showed up to make any repairs while we were there.

Fantastic getaway

This property is clean, well stocked, and well taken care of. We had 17 people and plenty of room to have our own space, yet, be gathered in the great room area all together. We used the 2 large, outside grills, one being a Blackstone grill, several times to make large meals. There are 2 refrigerators to accommodate all the food. The dock was awesome with both sun and shade areas. We spent a lot of time floating in the water by our dock. The area has a nice, friendly vibe with all the neighboring houses. We had a fantastic vacation. The only thing we would change is a few more bath towels.

Great week

We enjoyed our stay at Serenity Now. The house and dock were beautiful. I would agree with some previous reviews that the A/C is a problem, especially in the Retreat rooms. We kept the main room curtains closed all day and still struggled to get the house below 75 degrees- and it was 80 in the Retreat. We did have a good experience with Kim the property manager- she was helpful at the start of the week with a dishwasher issue. Thanks for an overall great week!
