Please note we deliver the boat to the property & the boat can be taken out anytime during your stay, just note per our insurance, the boats are not to be taken out after dark. All Bookings must be made a week in advance to guarantee delivery. All boats must be returned with a full tank of gas to avoid additional charges. Please note we do not rent tubes but local marinas do & the boat is to be returned to the house after the rental period is over.

-It is not allowed to leave your trailer at the property & is highly recommended to launch prior to going to the property. The road is short but is a single lane and is tight & peaks & valleys in spots which would make turning around with a trailer difficult. We however do provide several options. There’s an additional property we own 2 minutes away that the trailer can be dropped in the field beside the house or we have a gated warehouse less than 10 minutes away that it can be left at for the duration of your stay. Just please be sure to let us know which option you prefer as it gets closer. You can put in at Beach Island Marina (5 mins away)!

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.

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

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.

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.

Perfect house in cove

We got extremely lucky finding this house, it was the last house on the lake that would fit out group of 8. Four adults and four kids ranging in age 12-15. First, the location, super easy to find by boat because it’s the first cove past Bubba Brews. Also, the cove was great because it’s in a no wake zone so you can paddleboard and kayak as well as swim off the dock without worrying about big wakes. The kids would swim off the dock in the evening, no worries because there are lights. We rented a pontoon from the owner, it was at the dock and in great shape, just as they stated and it was super convenient. Fire pit area is well stocked with wood (thank you!) House was great and I was pleasantly surprised at all of the kitchen items available, crock pot, blender and plenty of plates, glasses, flatware. The one word of caution because we looked at the exterior pictures and didn’t heed the warning. The walk from the house to the dock is extremely steep and dangerous, especially if it’s raining or in the morning and late evening when iits damp out. My father came ans he is over 70, I was very concerned about a fall. It was difficult to get heavy or awkward items to and from the dock due to the severe incline. Other than the incline, everything was fantastic!!!

The property is beautiful if I were to make any changes I would do a pathway down to the boat dock because you have to maneuver goose poop and a steep hill on slippery grass 😟..Shades for upstairs bedroom would be a huge plus !!! When you’re on vacation you sometimes want to sleep in and not get up at 6:30 in the morning … Overall a beautiful property!!! Thanks The Llewellyn Family

A fabulous getaway -family with teens

We wanted to get away from the third Michigan COVID surge and snow... this quiet little cove was our great escape! House is well maintained, everything was as described or better. It's obvious they are reinvesting into their properties. We've stayed in quite a variety of home rentals and this was THE best stocked kitchen!! Super easy to prepare & eat our meals, and about 10min from grocery stores. Close to multiple state parks for hiking during the day, followed by relaxing in the wonderful hot tub to ease sore muscles, and wrapping up each evening at the covered firepit. Word of caution about the property slope of this whole area: very steep, like nothing we've experienced before. Property manager was SUPER responsive and helpful. Would definitely recommend!!
