Caryville Home w/ Private Dock & Norris Lake Views

Stay was great will book again for our next Norris Lake vacation.

This is our second trip to Lake Norris and we absolutely love it! Property had everything we needed! Had a gorgeous view from top deck. Nice to have own private slip for boat. Would not recommend pulling trailer or boat to this property. Previous posts stated you can park truck/trailer on site-which is not wrong. However, road is very narrow and difficult to navigate.

House was very nice, great view and well equipped. Excellent covered dock with a nice swimming area in a quiet river. Lots of Parkin is a plus.

Location! Location! Location! Beautiful setting on the water, sunshine, dock, deck, kayaks! Air conditioning is excellent. Washer and dryer, dishwasher for convenience.House is in need of maintenance but we spent our time outside. 1 king bed, two queen, 1 double. Large air mattress found in the laundry room.

It was great

very clean and comfortable. had everything we needed with beautiful views of the lake

This property was so clean and accommodating! Great location! Next time we’ll need to come when it’s warm so we can enjoy all the water toys!

We stayed here in early June with our family of 5 (kids 9, 6, and 2), and my parents. Overall, the rental was affordable and our stay was great. We come to Norris for the lake and the covered dock itself is very nice. There was ample space to keep our boat and all our water toys. There are camping chairs in the garage if you want to sit out on the dock. One of our favorite things to do is to play off the dock with our mat and paddle board. Since this is on the northside of Twin Cove and not in a private cove, there is some boat traffic. We came during the week so the traffic wasn't horrible, but it might be an issue on the weekends if you are swimming around the dock area. Some of the boats go really fast and the wakes will knock your boat around, even if you tie up well and use bumpers. There was a lot of debri in the water around the dock. I'm not sure if that was the time of year or if it is common for this part of the lake.  The hill to the dock wasn't a terrible walk (though my parents in their seventies had some difficulty and only wanted to make a few trips per day). The concrete walkway as you near closer to the dock is very nice. The dock was off to the side of the . We fixed it once but it went right back. My kids actually enjoyed it this way, so they could play on the concrete pad leading into the water (I think it reminded them of our family cabin in Michigan, where the water is very shallow by the shore). The septic did smell until our last day. I didn't realize it was the septic at first and attributed the smell to a dead catfish. The owner was responsive and sent someone right out shortly after being notified. We didn't use the fire pit for this reason, as it is very close to the septic opening. The outdoor furniture and deck have seen better days and could be replaced. The deck is peeling terribly and has holes in it. Some if the stairs look like they are about to cave in. No complaints about the inside. House was clean for the most part and has a dishwasher, washer, and dryer. Just be aware that there is only one bedroom upstairs and three in the basement. There were sufficient starter toiletries, toilet paper, paper towels, and dishwasher pods, which is always appreciated. There was ample parking for our trailer and two cars. Be sure to drop your boat in the water before you get to the house, as recommended. Easy access to I-75, Twin Cove, and Walmart for groceries.

Dock and at water experience was great. Deck furniture was tired and cushions were not welcoming as covers have holes and rips so not completely covered prior to arrival. Sleeps 12 is a real stretch as needed to sleep some on air mattresses which was less than ideal. Main bathroom toilet was dirty upon arrival. Garage great room was great for the kids to play games, etc. Kind of needs a refresh.

Great location close to I75 house very close to water Would consider return trip
