Great Family Week

Our family has stayed in Big Creek for many years. Love the area, and this home is perfect for our family. Grandparents, kids, and grands enjoy the time on the water and on the dock. Norris has a special place in our hearts.

Perfect

Great location, great house, great dock, great driveway, easy steps to water. Our family had people ages 3-66 and the house worked well for all ages. Games and movies for kids, movies for adults, a fully stocked kitchen and two washers and dryers was nice for the number of people that stayed, and a bonus that bath and kitchen towels were provided so we didn’t have to haul down.

10th stay at our Favorite Norris Lake Home

This was our tenth year staying in As You Wish and we love it! The house is very clean and has everything we need for our large group. The kitchen is well equipped with cooking utensils and cookware. The bedrooms with king size beds and attached bathrooms are perfect as we are 6 families coming to stay for the week. Our favorite part of our stay is the dock being so easy to access from the house (no steep sets of never ending stairs) and the dock is in a great cove that allows for lots of swimming and floating and we can also access the lake very quickly to start tubing and boarding. Highly recommend!

Great stay for big extended family

The house is maintained well and was very clean. We had a large group that appreciated the fact we had enough room to congregate together on the main floor for dining and games/puzzles stocked by the owners or spread out to enjoy separate activities like billiard, swimming, shuffleboard, and movies. The views were beautiful and there was direct access to the water.

Great Thanksgiving Holiday!

Our very large family were looking for places with a large enough dinning room to sit 16 for our Thanksgiving dinner. This home delivers! The house is big enough where even when you have a large group you still have space. The bottom floor was perfect for the kids and teenagers.

A Bachelor's Retreat

Our stay with about 20 folks couldnt have been better. Two slips for the boats and room for our party barge. Place has a great location for an evening dinner at Whitmans Hollow and late night drinks. Dining in is easy with a large grill and plenty of refrigeration, pots, pans, utensils, plates bowls etc. Plenty of room to hang together or separate into groups to watch tv, play games or simply hang out. Sleeping quarters are very nice and their are planty of bathrooms with large showers and tubs. Enjoyed the fact that there arent a ton of steps to get to the water and not terribly steep either. Owners were very helpful about the area and how to coordinate our boats and trailer storage. Thanksfor a great place to enjiy a great time!!!
