We loved this house. I am gonna be straight forward though- there are a lot of steps… a lot of steps. But- it’s the price you pay for being on the water. It was well worth it- just make sure you have what you need when you go to the dock the first time. The house was cozy, clean and perfect for what we wanted. We are going to go back next year for sure! My brother and dad brought their boats and we took our kayaks and paddleboards. We had the best time and the best weather. We had 16 of us and had plenty of room. Parking was a bit difficult but thankful for the overflow parking. Definitely recommend this house. Great stay, great family weekend!

The house was perfect for our family! We have 4 families. Each family had their own floor, bathroom and space.The A/C was great even on the very top floor. Beds were comfortable with a perfect set up, several king sizes beds. Too many places have only 1 or 2 king size beds. Most adults especially younger couples are used to king size beds. So that definitely was a plus for our family. The only thing that was a slight problem was the road into the house is steep and the parking is tight. But we managed to get 4 full size cars parked in front of the house.The grandkids age 5-18 had a blast down at the dock. Jumping off the top deck, going down the slide, and fishing off the deck. The area is reasonably quiet from boats and swimming activities. So really enjoyed just sitting out there on the very comfortable chairs provided.My husband said his only negative for the whole week was not having a Kerig coffee machine. There are lots of spices and kitchen cooking supplies. Two grills which were great to have. Do bring dishwasher, clothes, and body soap and shampoo. Also paper towels and toilet paper if you’re staying more than 2 days.We rented a pontoon boat from the local marina. That added a lot of fun to the week. We boated over to the Shanghai restaurant one night and had a delicious meal and beautiful ride back.

We are thrilled you and your family found our home perfect for your vacation. Thanks for the recommendation about the Keurig we plan to purchase one. Parking at lake front properties can be challenging. Diagonal parking at our house can accommodate up to 6 vehicles. There also is an overflow parking lot for additional vehicles. Would love to host your family again next year!

We are happy that you enjoyed your stay at It's Five O'clock Somewhere! The private cove and beautiful scenic view is why we purchased this home. Given the terrain that surrounds Norris Lake, many steps to the lake are the norm. Fortunately, our home has fewer steps than many rental properties. We hope you consider returning in 2020!

Family vacation

My family and I enjoyed our stay at this location. Everything was just as listed. The only part that was challenging was the parking, It's very tight and close to a cement retaining wall. The kitchen was fully stocked and the dishes were in good condition. In the past we brought our own dishws due to poor cookware so we appreciated that. Would definitely stay here again.

Dad’s 90th

From the time we walked in we relaxed. Everything was clean. We had enough room to spread out and just enjoy being together. When you live in Florida you forget how beautiful Tennessee is. There are a lot of stairs but even my 90 year old dad made it down to the lake. We are talking about doing it again next year.

About the host

Hosted by Amy Montgomery, Lori Panda

Host profile image
We live in Columbus, Ohio and have been vacationing at Norris Lake for years. It’s always been a dream of ours to own a home on Norris Lake. We finally found the perfect one! We love to share our home with others so they can make memories like we have over the years!

Why they chose this property

We chose this home because of the location in Lakeside Estates and it's easy access from I75. We are only 3.5 miles off of route 63. It’s in a protected cove in a no wake zone. You can swim safely without worrying about boat traffic.

What makes this property unique

Our home accommodates multiple groups. It’s spacious floorplan allows several get away or group entertainment areas. The private dock provides all day fun and easy access to your own boats. It is close to the Jumping Bridge and Sugar Hollow dock. It provides a water paradise in the summer but it is also a wonderful retreat year-round. The autumn leaves are colorful and it is a cozy gathering place for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s. The gated community of Lakeside Estates offers it's own Boat launch ramp as well.
