About this property

Huge Dock! - 2 slips! Tinyhouse! Secluded Cove! Pet Friendly! Boat Option!

Enjoy a relaxing stay in a modern log cabin in a very secluded cove on Norris Lake, with options to make your stay an absolute turnkey experience. The house is located off Racetrack Hollow in Big Creek near the end of a cove, so there are essentially no boats back in the cove. The lakehouse has ~150 feet of frontage, so there is plenty of room to swim for your group. If all the beds and convertible beds are used, the house can sleep up to 23 people, but it would be tight. Realistically, the property is ideal for 3 families.

The rates for Memorial Day through Labor Day include both the lakehouse and tinylakehouse. Outside of this window, the rate is for the main lakehouse only - the cleaning of the main house is $225. The tinyhouse can be added for $100/night, plus an extra $100 cleaning.

New for 2021 and beyond is a huge 32' x 52' Three Slip Covered dock (2 covered available for guests) with an upper sun deck. The dock is the ultimate in luxury - added to the dock is a FULL SIZE refrigerator, CLOTHES DRYER for drying wet towels, Small propane grill, propane fire table, microwave, and sound system.

The main house has 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms. The King Master suite, on the 2nd floor, has an attached bathroom and sitting area, along with a private balcony overlooking the lake. The 2nd bedroom on the main floor has a king platform bed. The bathroom on this floor has a newly renovated rainfall shower, and is open to the living room. The third bedroom is on the lower level, and has two twin over full bunkbeds with twin trundles, a double futon, and the third full bathroom. There is also a pullout couch in the main living room, and a single pullout twin bed chair in the sunroom. The sunroom has a slider and curtain so it can be made into a 4th bedroom. All bed linens, as well as bath sheets and towels are provided - just bring your own beach towels for the lake. Also, the house is completely pet-friendly - please feel free to bring your dogs with you - NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE, as long as you treat the house with respect - Dogs deserve to have a vacation at the lake with their humans!

The tinylakehouse is truly unique - It has a Bedroom with a Queen Murphy bed for nighttime, and a Murphytable for daytime dining. The loft has a Cordaroy convertible Bean bag - it is a bean bag by day, but opens into a queen size bed. The living area includes a queen size convertible sofa, as well as a projector with a 100" screen, and a wifi DVD player. The bathroom has a shower, toilet and vanity. The tinykitchen sports an air fryer, microwave, 2 burner stove and mini-fridge.

For indoor entertainment, we just have regular broadcast TV. New in 2025 is Unlimited Fiber Optic Internet! Also, there are ~250 DVD movies, a number of board games, a foosball table, and a Nintendo Wii entertainment system. Plenty to do in the unlikely event there is rain during your stay.

New in 2023 is an additional 16x20 upper deck, along with a 20 x 20 screened in porch underneath! The porch includes another TV & DVD player, has a small propane firepit/bluetooth speaker combo and is great for relaxing and taking in the lake views.

All in all, the main house can sleep up to 17 people with all the pullouts. The tinylakehouse can sleep another 6, for 23 total (that would be very cozy).

I try to make the lakehouse as turnkey as possible, so I have an ice machine, lots of toilet paper and paper towels, bath soaps, shampoo, garbage bags, etc - i also include all linens and I try to keep nice, fluffy bath towels!

Included with the rental is use of the dock (rental includes 1, and possibly 2 covered slips with advanced notice). Also included with the house are a number of water toys, including 4 kayaks, 2 paddleboards, a paddleboat and various flotational toys. We also added a 'mountain corn hole' game, carved into the side of the hill. There are a number of lifejackets available for use, to ensure that your guests are safe. Also on the property is a great high fly swing.

For cooking, the kitchen comes fully equipped, and there is a grill on the deck off the sunroom. There is also a propane powered outdoor pizza oven, which is a great option to let people make & bake their own pizzas, as well as a propane smoker to slow cook your favorite meats. If you prefer cooking over an open fire, just light the firepit with the included wood, and cook directly over the campfire. In the evenings, enjoy s'mores over a fire in the fire pit, located midway between the lake and the house - the house is stocked with plenty of wood at no additional charge.

If you don't have a boat, don't worry. The owner has a 22 foot, 115 HP outboard 14 person max capacity pontoon boat available for rent in conjunction with the rental of the house. This boat has been totally upgraded in 2024 - new vinyl weave floor, new upholstery, adding a 3rd toon for stability, and a new control.

Any questions, please let me know. Thanks for looking!

After 30 years working at GE Aviation, I have left the corporate world, I met the woman of my dreams, Joy, and am pursuing my passion for serving others as a neighborhood handyman in Bellbrook Ohio. I am continually making improvements to the property, so what you see when you reserve the lakehouse is only the beginning....My goal is to have as many people as possible enjoy the lake experience, and to make it a truly turnkey service... just come down and let us be your host!
