This lake house exceeded our expectations! We were very happy with the accommodations in both the main house and the tiny house, and the outdoor spaces and amenities were awesome, especially the dock. Communication with Paul both before and during the stay was top notch. We had an amazing week at the lake, in large part thanks to choosing this house. Highly recommend!
This is a beautiful property that has been so thoughtfully designed to ensure a family has everything they need to enjoy the gorgeous lake! The hosts are phenomenal and very helpful. The views from the numerous porches and decks are stunning!
Paul was very responsive to all of our needs and was so easy to work with throughout the entire process.
We loved the location of the house and also the tiny house was a hit as well.
Would definitely stay again!
WOW…This place is way beyond expectations. Paul has put his heart & soul into this property. Everything you could ever need during your stay is available. The amenities are amazing. Fridge and dryer at the dock was our favorite. I made ice cream cones while the grands played in the water and it was such a hit. The trampoline and water mat were a great surprise for the kids. Took a sunset cruise in the evening in the pontoon and had such a great time. The house is so well equipped, literally has everything you need in the kitchen. Ice maker was also a plus for the coolers and just chillin your drinks. We stored our dinks in the extra fridge on the lower level, which left plenty of room in the upper fridge for food. We will definitely book this house again. Thanks Paul for your thoughtfulness when putting this house out there to rent. We really appreciate you!
Nice house to stay in and owner is super nice. Only downfall is the steep and narrow roads and driveway. Just drop your boat at Campbell State Park instead of bringing it down to house and you will have no problems. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Leslie, I do agree that out neighborhood ramp is a little difficult to get to, and that it is pretty steep. it is definitely good if you only have one or two people to drop a boat in.
Another alternative is to put in any Whitman Hollow, which is about 2 miles up Demory Road. Their ramp is a very gradual grade. and it is closer to the house than the park.
thanks for the feedback!

The property was exactly what my family of all age ranges needed! From toddler to 52 years old and all ages in between everyone loved every minute of our stay! No one ever got bored. One of our sons owns a pool company and said he’d consider having his work trip for his employees at the property. The extra toys changed everything. The kayaks and paddle boards were always in use and the clean clear water of Norris Lake was so refreshing. The owner was amazing and always in communication.
The house had many things to do to keep everyone busy. Paul communicates quickly. We were able to try the new chair lift he installed it helped our older visitors reach the top deck.
Paul was a great communicator. There were 14 of us that stayed and there was plenty of room. There was plenty for all of us to do and we didn’t get bored. The newly added screened in area was a hit. We sure did spend our evenings and mornings there. The lake is absolutely breathtaking. The dock was a blast. There were so many things for us to do. The pontoon boat was a plus and was available whatever days we chose. Thanks for allowing us to stay and the precious memories. Our dog Manny loved it just as much as we did.
The location is amazing tucked into a cove and we spent so much time just hanging at the dock. Kayaks and paddleboards, slide and the big 2nd story jump kept the kids entertained. Fishing was easy and fun with the littles in our group. We rented the pontoon and cruising the lake was relaxing. House had every single thing we needed. The rope swing was a hit and smores around the fire in the evenings was a perfect end to each day. We had 18? 19? People and everyone had a comfy spot to sleep. Great communication and instructions for everything
Weather was 80 and overcast with some rain and storms. We still had an amazing vacation. Looking forward to coming back to stay again!

Property gets an a minus / b plus. Only a couple small things. Some of the stairs are very steep and older renters may find them difficult. Hand rails on only one side for a lot of the trip to the dock. Kitchen is narrow so teamwork there is tough. Good selection of dvds with varying audiences. Dock went to winter water location during our stay which is approximately 50 yards from where the stairs drop you this shouldn’t be a problem during full pool months but should be noted if you are trying for a late September last hurrah. The amenities like ice and games are a welcome piece. Could use a few low watt night lights near the floor on the stairs and the main/kitchen level. We left a kitchen light on so our kids could make their way up in the dark should they need.

Hi Tim,
The steep stairs are inside the house - that was the way it was built (as a cabin), similar to the galley kitchen. There are two other staircases (albeit outside) that are standard stairs to get to the main house level.
I explained to you in the welcome email that the dock movers may move the dock when you are renting to keep it in the water. I have sufficient electrical cable to keep the dock fully functional all the way to winter pool, so it is an extra few steps to get to the dock. On the lights, the renters keep moving them. I do have 3 table lamps on the main level, a couple with low watt bulbs, that could have been used.
I am surprised that you didn't mention that I let you use the tinylakehouse at no extra charge to provide your parents with a private place to stay.
100% Yes! Veteran & Newbie Lake Lifer Win, Kid and Dog Approved.
If you are looking for a family-friendly, fur baby approved, vacation HOME, in a safe, convenient cove, with fun at your fingertips, this is it!!
The location alone was the best I have ever stayed in 15+ years at Norris, for multiple reasons! It’s a peaceful, private cove with maybe 20 houses. You can sit on the “Big Deck” of the HOUSE or the dock and watch everyone play with ease. Huge bonus: no thru traffic on either side of the cove! Most of the homes are owner occupied (with the right to VRBO). You can let the kids explore a bit. Quick boat ride or drive to dinner/lunch/shopping ect. Only 30 mins from 75. Easy drive from Cincy; Buc-cees is a great half way pit stop! This isn’t a rental in my opinion. Both the main house and the Tinyhouse are homes! Loved watching the sunrise in the comfy chair, in the sunroom! Screened in porch w/fans tvs ect, master suite on top floor with private deck, nice main floor bedroom, great lower level with bunk beds for kiddos. The tinyhouse is ideal for solely entertainment OR additional housing. Our kids loved having their own “house”. When I was a single parent, vacation entertainment could be intimidating; Book this! It was super easy. I could have done this with little ones on my own. Grab groceries and you don’t even need to leave. Plus, you can bring your fur babies! The dogs loved it and they were easy to contain. Highly Recommended Coal Creek Fishing Charters for ALL ages! Or ATVs “Best Vacation Ever”. Total Mom Win :)
You won’t be disappointed with this property. The location is beautiful and pretty much anything you need is available. We loved swimming in the quiet cove!
Paul is as great at Answering all my questions. The dock and all outdoor spaces were amazing. Was a great place to celebrate with plenty to do without leaving the house. The kitchen was well equipped. Tiny house was a great addition. We were able to do Yoga on the upper deck on the water.
The house was perfect for the weekend getaway. Paul went out of his way to make the house comfortable for us and ready for the Holidays. Some unexpected events happened during our stay, and Paul was accommodating allowing us to extend our stay an extra night. Would recommend this for any friend or family get togethers.
We had a wonderful stay. Paul was very quick to respond to all of our questions and you could tell that he truly cared that we have a easy stay. We spent most of the time on the dock utilizing the water toys.
What a GREAT stay! The house was AMAZING- we enjoyed drinks on the main floor deck two nights before dinner- never made it down to the middle-level deck. Drinks on the covered dock when it was raining the first nice- AWESOME! Dryers at the dock, outside, and washer/dryer indoors too. The refrigerator down at the dock- perfect for drinks and lunch- we grilled out twice for lunch b/c there was a grill on the dock as well as the main deck. The water was AMAZING- green/blue, clear, deep & felt GREAT! Slide off the top of the deck (patio area w/ chairs- definitely used this!), toys included paddle boat, two kayaks, and 2 paddle boards. There were noodles, life vests, basic fishing poles, etc. We also brought two inflatable inner tubes, Saw BIG fish but only caught one small one despite multiple attempts. :) Pizza oven was so fun- we saved for our last night but wish would have done it earlier b/c there were leftovers. Enjoyed fires on two nights and movies on 3-4 others (variety to pick from). Paul was quick to respond to any questions we had- an excellent host. Small group- 3 adults, including my 78-year-old father, and three dogs. Lots of steps down to the water/dock, but not bad b/c landings/lateral movement. GREAT trip/break from "real" life! :)
The house was the perfect size for our crew and there was every type of lake toy to make it super fun! The dock is awesome! The teen boys loved going down the slide and jumping off the top deck. So much fun! Plus there were lots of games and supplies in the house. The detailed communication and lake map were exceptionally helpful. Thanks Paul!
