True Oasis!

This place has everything I wanted: peaceful lake setting, cooking pans & utensils, gas grill, indoor & outdoor seating, slide into the lake, paddle boat, kayak & plenty of room for 5 adults & a helpful host for my questions. Highly recommend you stay at The Donner at Norris Lake!

Awesome stay at Norris

We rented this house for a family reunion at Norris and it worked perfectly! Clean, spacious, lots of outdoor space! Plenty of boat parking and we love the Whitman Hollow Marina and Froggies Bar! Kids loved jumping off the 2 story dock! We will definitely rent here again in the future! Thanks Adam for the hospitality!

House was fabulous and clean. Beds were nice and kitchen was well stocked and great for a large group. Internet worked great. However, wish we would have known there was no phone service in that area of the lake and TV had no cable or smart capabilities. Overall, perfect stay.

Unique and Relaxing “GetAway” Experience

We have nothing but positive things to say about this property. The house was clean and exactly as pictured. We were also able to utilize the paddle boat and kayak along with the slide at the property. It was just a wonderful stay all around. Many Thanks!

Great getaway! Will return!

My wife and I work remote and the internet was fantastic! Also this has everything needed to cook some meals, if you aren't hanging out at the great Marina bar and grill, Froggie's! Quality of knives, cookware, sheets and towels...all felt very well thought out and focused on a great experience! Will definitely return!

We LOVE this place. Everything is amazing... I think this was the 5th time we've stayed now!? Myself, my husband, my parents, and our two kids (now 5/7). Place is VERY well stocked, a fantastic outdoor space and the porch spaces are everything! The host and house manager are so friendly, address any concerns immediately, and make any issues during our stay a non-issue!Obviously, 10/10, will stay there again!!!The kids wear themselves out going up to the top deck to jump in for a swim! The younger has been doing it since he was just 3!!!
