Guest Access:
As our guest, you'll have full access to the entire property, except for a few areas reserved for house supplies.

Getting Around:
Our Norris Lake properties are located in scenic, rural settings, away from busier towns and main roads. Roads leading to many of these properties may include winding routes, hills, varying grades, and narrower stretches typical of East Tennessee’s lake communities. A personal vehicle is necessary, as public transportation and rideshare services are limited in the area.

During the winter months, we recommend 4WD or AWD vehicles and/or appropriate tire chains when snow or icy conditions are expected. During winter weather, main roads are prioritized for plowing, salting, and other road treatments. Snow removal and road treatment on smaller rural and mountain roads may take additional time, with service schedules varying depending on weather conditions and road priorities.

We encourage guests to monitor weather forecasts and plan accordingly. Should winter weather be in the forecast, we recommend arriving with groceries, drinking water, and any other essentials you may need during your stay to minimize unnecessary travel during inclement weather.

☑︎ Seasonal Lake Levels of Norris Lake - Norris Lake is a flood control reservoirs managed by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). Water levels fluctuate seasonally, with TVA generally lowering lake levels from September through April for flood control purposes and beginning to refill the lake in May. Full pool is typically reached between early June and early July, depending on rainfall, weather conditions, and TVA water management. Because lake levels are managed by TVA, they are outside of our control and cannot be guaranteed. Water levels, shoreline access, and dock accessibility may vary throughout the year. We encourage guests to check current TVA lake levels when planning their stay.

We arrived expecting the lakefront experience clearly advertised for this property. Upon going into the backyard, we immediately noticed there was no dock, despite the listing stating that one was included. When we contacted management, we were informed the dock is “seasonal,” which was unexpected during the peak week of July 4th.Because of the lack of a dock, we had nowhere to store the boat we rented. We were required to return it to the marina every day and drive approximately 20 minutes each way for pickup and drop-off. This added over an hour of unnecessary driving each day and significantly disrupted our plans on the lake.The listing also stated access to Sugar Hollow Marina, which was not provided during our stay.Inside the home, we also experienced issues. There was no hot water the first night, and the following day only a small number of guests were able to shower before the hot water ran out. For a home advertised to sleep 12 guests, it did not meet expectations for accommodating our group.Overall, we were very disappointed, as several key features and expectations based on the listing were not met during our stay.

It was honestly one of the smoothest experiences I've had with a BNB, and the property was even cooler in person than advertised on the site. I also really appreciated how easy the check out process was. A lot of property rentals will charge astronomical cleaning fees and still ask that you do a majority of the cleaning before leaving, and all they wanted us to do was the bare essentials (run the dishwasher, and leave towels on the bathroom floor.)It simplified our trip, and we'd love to book this property again in the future.P.S. that swimming hole was AWESOME!
