The house was perfect for our vacation with our kids & grands! The kitchen is very well equipped and the overall house was perfect! The boat dock fit our 24 ft Splendor, our son's Mastercraft and wave runner with still enough room for the water fun swimming, the dock slide and our daughter's paddle board! Definitely reviewing this property!

We have been coming to Norris for years and this house was perfect - stocked for a large group. Comfortable and truly thought of everything when designing. Location for easy in and out to all lake/marinas, quiet for water floating days, your bridge jumping and renting fromoasis watersports (is our fav). What they send you prior to arrival was the most any Management or owner in all my years and it was so so useful!! Also a few things popped up and they handled right away! Def stay here!

This was a very nice house. Lots of games, which helped on the rainy days, which we had a lot of when we were down there.The dock was very nice, although I did not like the idea of sharing a fire pit with another house.But other than that, those house was very nice, very roomy, we had twenty two people thereand with three levels it worked out perfect

The home is located in the mountains and we are restricted to satellite cable and internet. We do have dish network cable on 6 of the 12 TVs in the home. When they stayed we had a lot of rain and storms so the cable was a bit choppy and that is out of our control. As for the internet we do have HughesNet which is the only provider available, and we are restricted on how fast it is based off weather as well. This is all due to the location on the water in the cumberland mountains.

Everything about Waker’s Paradise was exactly as described and we had an absolute fabulous time. We had more than enough space for our group of 22. Our group has been traveling together for 10 years and this was without a doubt the best stocked house in the kitchen with everything you could need. We will be back!

Family gathering

This house was perfect for our gathering. Spacious,accommodating our group of 20 easily, even for dining.We had all that we needed. It is located in an area that is meant for summer gatherings, but had things to do inside as well. We would recommend this house.

Waker's Paradise

Norris Lake was amazing. Brittany with the Management Group was available to answer all questions and made sure we were well taken care of. Rented a boat from Oasis Watersports, and they delivered right to the house. We could not have asked for a better experience.

Family birthday

Beautiful home, and quiet lake property. It was perfect for a family weekend! The entire family enjoyed it, and loved the location. They all came from out of town so some toiletries (hand soap, shampoo, more dishwashing soap) would have nice to have instead of having to bring them. The boat ramp is very steep.. but we managed. We absolutely loved it here.. would stay again!

Great August Stay

The house was great - very spacious, clean and easy to navigate. The beds were amazing! We've all stayed on terrible cheap VRBO mattresses but everyone agreed that these were heaven. The kitchen was perfect for our large family. The location is a bit far down the no-wake zone but it wasn't too bad. The owner was also extremely responsive to all questions. We'd definitely stay here again. Wonderful trip. Thank you!

Family vacation at Norris Lake

We really enjoyed our stay. The kitchen is amazing with the appliances and supplies. The only problem is the air conditioning. It is not at all sufficient for the 2 lower levels. It was hot! We really did have a blast! Thank you!

This was a great property and had plenty of space for everyone to spread out. It is a great location it just takes a while to get to since it is at the end of a long no wake zone. It was nice that you didn't have to worry about a bunch of traffic when the kids were swimming. The neighborhood trailer parking was really tight and not a good set up, and the road to the boat ramp is really steep.

Great house! Having two of everything was great! House had plenty of dishes and silverware. And lots of space for multiple families. The dining room table benches were a little uncomfortable, but a great addition. The slide water pump pumped the water in the opposite direction so that was a little challenging, but otherwise everything else was perfect.

Paradise

We have stayed in this cove multiple times with our large crew. We love the location, the seclusion, and the house! The house is big enough that the 17 of us always have plenty of room. The double fridge, ovens, and dishwasher are always a must with such a large group. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything that you need. The game rooms are always an added bonus. The bed are comfortable and the house is always clean. Lookong forward to our stay again next year!

Enjoyed our stay, some issues with wasp on second floor and a few safety issues with railings. Would not recommend this home if you have small children as there are many steps....living room is small, not as large as pictures show. We had 14 adults and 7 kids from 1yr to 13yrs. Not as clean as some VRBO'S we have stayed in....mold and mildew in showers...windows very dirty and the lake was lowered before we got there...

Thank you for taking the time to share feedback. We’re very glad you enjoyed your stay, and we appreciate the opportunity to address the items mentioned during your stay. As soon as we were notified of two loose railings leading to the dock, our team was onsite and completed repairs within two hours. We take safety seriously and have happily hosted many families with young children over the years without concern—guests simply understand that our home is nestled in the beautiful woods and mountains, and natural terrain and elevation changes are part of that setting. Regarding the insects, the issue involved bees (not wasps). With the crisp fall weather in the Cumberland Mountains, occasional insects can be unavoidable, but we treated the area immediately upon notification to ensure your comfort and have monthly pest control service. We are also disappointed to hear mention of mildew and cleanliness concerns, as this was not reported during your stay, and we pride ourselves on a clean home. Had we been aware, we would have immediately addressed it just as quickly and thoroughly as we did the other items you brought to our attention. Guest satisfaction and responsiveness are always our priority. In terms of space, our home offers three living rooms, and the photos accurately represent the open-concept kitchen and main living area, which many previous guests have complimented for being spacious and inviting. Finally, we clearly note in our listing that water levels naturally recede after Labor Day, which is standard for the lake and the season (October). We are committed to providing a clean, welcoming, and well-maintained home for all our guests. We are happy your group enjoyed your stay overall and wish you many more great travel experiences in the future.

Happy Halloween

We visited this place with a large company and spent this time with a lot of emotions. Everyone had equal conditions for rest and everyone was satisfied! The only thing that upsets is the lack of a pier near the water. There was no opportunity to enjoy the quiet atmosphere of nature by dipping our feet in the water. But this did not prevent our company from spending this time unforgettable)))

If you are looking for a place to gather with family and friends, this is a great choice. We stayed in November to celebrate my dad’s 80th birthday, so the lake was not a huge draw. The water level was down by the house this time of year and not useable (we knew this and didn’t plan to have a boat). We chose this place as the location was central for us and it was large to accommodate our group of 20. Plenty of beds, kitchen was large with two of everything, and two large tables for dining. The golden T golf game was fun, as was the ping pong and hot tub. This neighborhood is full of rentals, so if you are coming with a group and need more than one house, you could easily find another close by. We walked the neighborhood in the morning, it has a few very steep hills, so you will get a workout for sure! Driveway accommodated our six vehicles. Overall, we enjoyed this place for a weekend with family. We said it would be fun to come in the summer and bring a boat!

Unforgettable Memories

Our family (four generations) stayed at Waker's Paradise to celebrate my parents' 50th wedding anniversary. It was a perfect location for making memories and celebrating family. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook for a crowd and the lake itself provided access to fun activities for all ages. There's a rope swing right across from the lake house and the jumping bridge is very close by. Additionally, I have never experienced faster or more responsive communication than we did from the owners. We faced a few hiccups when moving in that were completely outside of the owners' control and we were in shock by the effort that they invested to address those concerns. You can tell that they are committed to making sure their guests have good experiences. Overall, I highly recommend Waker's Paradise. Everyone is already asking when we can go back.

I think ppl of older age should know about the stairs. There are so many. Also there was not enough hot water in the kitchen to do much. Hot tub very clean, lots of fun stuff in house to do, kitchen was very stocked on dishes & pans which was nice & having a ice machine was also a plus! Kids & family had a great time with lots of memories to look back on.
