Caryville Home w/ Dock, Steps to Norris Lake!

Great house for boating at Norris Lake. Clean, well-kept, well-furnished. Liked the labels on the cabinets for where everything is stored. The driveway is very steep so if you plan to take your boat to the house before launching, you will need a fairly powerful vehicle.

This vacation home on Norris lake was great! We had small finds that needed attention on our arrival and our guest specialist responded quickly and efficiently. The house was spacious and having the dock was a great addition. The kitchen was well stocked with kitchen necessities which made it nice to fix our meals at home while being there for a week! Beds were very comfy and two of the bed rooms were exceptionally spacious. Will absolutely consider this lake house in our future trip plans!

What an awesome property! Everything was perfect. Plenty of space for my friends and I to celebrate my 40th Birthday! We spent our whole time on the dock and floating in the lake. It was so peaceful! The hill getting to the lake was a little steep. Parking at the dock was really convenient though, so if you couldn't walk you could always drive. FIVE STARS! Thank you for an amazing stay at Norris Lake!

Great stay, ridiculous fees!

The house was very clean quiet and comfortable

Smooth check-in and great location to the lake.

Our family enjoyed our time at the lake. The dock was accessible by foot or by car for those that needed a lift down. Great for fishing a swimming. Close to the marina(s). Fully stocked with all your vacation and kitchen needs.

We had high hopes for this house but cleanliness and the management company ruined it. PROS: the beds were very comfortable, AC kept up with 90° temps, the decks for my kids to play, the dock was very nice. CONS: 2 used condoms found under a dresser when I love it away from the wall to plug my child’s baby monitor in. Management told me “the don’t move heavy furniture to clean” but I’m 5’7”, 140lbs and moved it on my own to plug the cord in. Grill also caught on fire because it was disgustingly filthy with grease buildup and I had to use the fire extinguisher to put it out. After I reported the fire to Evolve, I was questioned if I turned it on correctly and who I spoke to on the phone said to me “what did I expect, a new grill at every VRBO I rent?” HOW RUDE. I said “no, I just expect my family to be safe at your property.” I have pictures of everything and do not believe anything Evolve writes in response to this review defending their actions. The property manager asked how he could make it right and I said 50% refund for total cost of the trip. He said he would have to ask someone higher up and get back to me. It’s been a week and I’m clearly not getting any money back so I have a responsibility to report this horrible management to other potential renters of this property! The location was wonderful- house was great size-wise and whatnot, but Evolve made it a zero-star rating.

We used the porch to play board games (we brought with us) during the rain. We swam in the Lake and took out the Kayaks. They kitchen had everything we needed. The bathrooms were nice with lots of fluffy towels. Many things to do at this property. As others have noted, not appropriate for people who aren't comfortable walking down the hill to the Lake. It wasn't a problem for us but it may be for some.

Nice place. Not as close to the water as pictured and firepit not close

Well-stocked kitchen. Lovely stay. Had a great time.
