This property is advertised as a four bedroom home. It is only a two bedroom home with three more beds randomly placed in the basement. It was disappointing as we were hoping everyone would have their own private room. Dock needs repainted. Owner was friendly and responded quickly. Place was clean.

Great Stay on Big Creek

We had a great stay over the 4th at this property. Big Creek is one of our favorite parts of Norris and the house is in a great location. Nice dock, nice cove, concrete path all the way to the dock. We had 8 adults and had plenty of room. Kitchen is well-equipped, plenty of parking in the driveway, AC worked great to cool us off after a day on the water. We'll rent this one again, thanks for a nice stay!

Wonderful lakeside stay

My friends and I spent a weekend here to celebrate a milestone birthday. Everything about the house was exactly what we needed to be comfortable in our new decade. You do have a steep walk to the water, but the dock and cove are worth it. The host was super responsive and helpful with all of our needs. We all agreed we would definitely stay here again!

Great!

This home was perfect for our group of ten. Plenty of space to spread out. The two story dock was tons of fun for the kids during the day and provided an epic view of the amazing sunsets (best we have ever seen at Norris)!! The home is extremely clean and well equipped and communication with the host was fabulous. Five Stars!

Great location and everyone enjoyed! House had everything you'd need. It's a steep walk to the dock. Probably not suitable for older anyone that has a hard time walking.

Plenty of room, even on rainy days!

It rained every day, but we were still able to enjoy the lake. The two-story dock was great and the wrap-around deck space gave all of us (10) plenty of room to spread out and relax.

The property is beautiful and clean! Property was equipped with everything we needed for our stay and a few bonuses like the lake matt...the kids loved it. The host was very accomodating and check in was easy. Our only complaint is the trees blocking the lake view! Amazing vacation!

Perfect Lake Weekend!

My friends and I had a wonderful lake weekend at this property! The private dock made having a boat day very convenient and easy, and it is just a quick trip to the marinas nearby. It rained a bit on our trip, but the covered porch gave us the perfect spot to drink coffee and listen to the rain before starting our day. The host had excellent communication and was very accommodating. This is the third year for our lake weekend getaway and the group said this was by far their favorite house! Thank you for everything!

Great home! Bigger than expected.

We really enjoyed gathering at the house with some friends from college! There were lots of beds and plenty of space. The walk was steep at points to the dock, but overall not as bad as some of the other walks we have had when staying. The property manager was great and attentive but not bothersome. The dock was really nice for our rented boats, very peaceful. I wish it had more countertop space, but that’s because we were cooking for 13.

Good Lake House for Families

Really enjoyed our stay here - the house was perfect for our two families (11 total - my sister and I with our adult children). There were lots of beds so everyone had a place to sleep - and three good bathrooms. Two living areas had lots of seating and the kitchen was very well stocked with dishes and pots/pans, so we were able to cook big family meals too. The dock was SUPER nice - loved the sun deck and the location was scenic and central, so we explored alot of the lake. Close to Sequoia and Whitman Hollow marinas. The walk from the dock to the house was very steep, but short, so... pretty normal/average compared to most Norris houses. The owners appear to still be doing some improvements in the house so I expect this rental will just get better over time.

This house was fantastic for me and my group of friends for a weekend on the lake! Accommodates a TON of people. We had about 12 and almost everyone had their own bed! Communication with Christy was super easy and the house was easy to find. Highly recommend!
