My family and I were in the area for a wedding, and having a house big enough to accommodate our family was awesome! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and the kids enjoyed the games and activities provided.
We are so happy to hear that your family had a good time! It was our pleasure to provide Glen's Getaway for your family Thanksgiving.
We want to thank you for your review and hope you you will join us again for another holiday gathering!
Take care-Glen's Getaway
We had multiple families and kids of all ages on our trip. The house was very clean, comfortable, well stocked, and had so many fun activities for the kids! Great no wake location and close to the marina making it easy to launch boats. We had a blast!

It was a delight to have you stay at our place, Glen's Getaway! We couldn't be happier that your family enjoyed their stay and we thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
We do understand your concerns with the steps to the dock and we apologize. They are a current work in progress due to the lower than normal water levels from the dam repair.
We do hope you will recommend us to friends and think of us next time for your winter or summer vacation!
Thank you-Glen's Getaway
Parking is somewhat tricky.. not a lot of room if you have bigger vehicles. Overall the host was helpful and always responded quickly. Followed the home on Facebook after booking and they noted they added another suite! No where was it noted that it was an additional cost per night to have this room available to use during your stay so felt slightly deceived by the listing. Overall good location on the water.. very clean! Kayaks were a great bonus.
Have stayed in 9 different houses on Norris Lake. This one rates up there with the best. The property manager was excellent to work with as there were a few minor issues that were resolved quickly. The two things to be known is there are 70 steps from the dock to the house and the house sets back a good distance from the main water.

What a wonderful rating and opinion you have given to us, at Glen's Getaway!
As it is our first time renting, we are thankful that you chose to try our location out. We also appreciate the suggestions you had and have already began implementing some of those ideas to make Glen's Getaway even better.
It was a pleasure having your family and friends stay and we hope you will be joining us for many more summers to come!
Thank you from Glen's Getaway!
We had a slight delay in getting into the cabin due to not receiving the code to the lock box. Just said it was sent but I didn’t get. I was able to contact host and she provided it within a few mins of our arrival. We enjoyed our stay! We stayed with children and rented a boat from the Marina right down the street. We enjoyed using the kayaks and the children loved all the games that were offered to entertain them. Overall great experience! The house was clean. The location is not close to any shopping and nearest grocery store is about 15-20 mins away but this didn’t phase us because we brought our groceries with us. Perfect place to get away!!
This was our first year staying at Flat Hollow Marina. We had an awesome stay at Glen’s Getaway! The property was in excellent condition, as advertised. The only complaint we had, the last few steps to the dock were a little sketchy but looked like they may have just been a temporary fix. We also didn’t read you needed to bring bath towels (they supply a few) but that was our fault. The kids enjoyed the putting green and ping pong table. We loved being able to have our morning coffee and mimosas on the dock and gather around the dining table on the deck for dinner. Thanks again for being gracious and communicative hosts! In our kids words (22 and 15), this was the best trip ever.

Thank you for your 5 star review! We are so glad your whole family could enjoy Glen's Getaway and it's amenities!
We apologize for the look of the steps. We recently had work done to the gangway because of the low water levels from the construction on the dam. The water, however, was much lower than anticipated, so we had to install some steps and railing, short-term, to connect the ramp more safely. We understand they don't look very attractive but we hope next year that area will be under water!
Again, we appreciate your review and that you chose to stay at Glen's Getaway-we look forward to hosting your family and friends again in the future!
Thank you!

Hospitality and Miscommunication Nightmare
We chose this property in hopes to find a rental we could continue to year after year, but as the stay continued, we realized that wasnt the case with this property- not because of the property itself, but due to the constant run around we were given by the property manager. We arent the type of people to complain... ever. But it started with checking in. We arrived right at check- in time and had only received the initial genetic message about the proccess- no code to key entry information. Once we realized this, we attempted multiple times to contact the host. We understood that service in the area is fickle due to the location but it took over an hour for the host to get in touch with us, almost argumentative about speaking to the renter prior to check-in through Facebook, come to find out it was communication with the following renter, not us. Due to this, we lost some groceries and started the experience off on a bad foot. We realized that the air-conditioning wasn't working. We contacted the host and let them know what was happening. I took multiple steps to ensure the house could remain cool enough to be comfortable for sleep; removed filters, cleaned out water from the furnace pan to get it to kick back on, etc. The host was adamant it was one specific issue and I tried to explain that it wasn't and I knew what needed to be done (I am a contractor by trade.) My suggestion fell on deaf ears and we went multiple days without AC.
