Pirates Cove 9 Bed/9 Bath, large hot tub, private fire pit, double dock

Let’s start with the positive… Check in was super easy! Directions were great. The lake is beautiful and we had so much fun on the double dock. The kids loved the water slide and jumping off the top. We paid extra for the water package and used the kayaks, the huge pad, and paddle boards every day. There was plenty of space for our large group of 19. We especially appreciated that every bedroom had its own bathroom! Two dishwashers and two refrigerators were so helpful!Now to the not so good…We stayed here years ago and loved it. Since then, the furnishings have really gone downhill. One of the couches was so lumpy it was hard to sit on! Most of the beds were not very comfortable. The knives in the kitchen were super dull, the non stick and some of the cookware wasn’t very clean. When we walked in it seemed clean. But it could use a deep clean. Maybe it was because we were there in August and it had been cleaned well at the beginning of the season, but there were spider webs and dirty cupboards. There were several steps leading down to the water that were rotted and one of the boards in the upper dock as well. The host was very responsive when I texted about that and had someone fix them quickly, which I appreciated. She said they were going to do a major repair at the end of the season, but my son in law stepped on two different boards that broke under his feet! All in all, we enjoyed our stay, but for the amount of money for one week, I guess we expected a little more.

Great time by all. No issues with checkin. Kitchen well stocked. Grill was a little worn out, but still able to grill multiple times. Will.consider returning in the future.

Great week with family and friends. Location was perfect.

Wonderful attention to Detail fast on fixing a problem and very accommodatingAnd just overall very welcoming environment

We had a blast and hope to be back again!

Great property and great time for all! Thanks so much!

Have been coming to Norris Lake for over 30 years, have rented numerous vacation homes, this in our opinion was the best, so very well stocked and a very comfortable home for a large group. Will rent this home again.

Great place with lots of room and rooms! Very clean and equipped very well for a large family or families. The views are beautiful. There are a lot of steps to the dock and water but they are very manageable. We enjoyed the water sports equipment. The multiple decks were nice and the house had a lot of places to hang out. We would highly recommend Pirate’s Cove!

I can’t imagine a better house for family fun and interaction.

This property was very nice and has all the things you need/want. It’s tucked away in a great cove for plenty of swimming, jumping from the dock, or sliding into the water. We are 4 families (total of 16 ranging from 6-46) and there was plenty of room for all! Plus I don’t think I heard “I am bored” one time from the littles, or the teens. If you are bringing a boat the launching point is super close and there is plenty of room to have a second boat. You will not be disappointed at all. The only thing that we found that was a little issues was the dock got super slick, even if you were not running.
