We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was the first time doing a lake vacation. We usually go to the beach. I think the children enjoyed it most of all. The house was plenty big and Krista responded promptly to messages. My only concern is there was not room for all of us to sit together in the living area. It seems the middle level had more furniture for sitting. Other than that everything was fantastic. They loved the jumping bridge.

Property is just as it looks in pictures and exceeded our expectations. Location is fantastic as it is located near jumping bridge but in a cove where you don't have to worry about boats flying by while you're in the water. The host was absolutely fantastic. We had issues with our boat and she went above and beyond trying to help us have the best trip by suggesting rentals and things to do without a boat. Would love to go back again!

About the host

Hosted by Craig & Krista Conard

Host profile image

We have enjoyed Norris Lake with our family and friends for many, many years. We decided to purchase a home so that we could enjoy even more time at the lake, and more time with family. Whether we're relaxing on the dock watching the kids play, or enjoying a hard ski or tube ride, it's always a fun time at Norris.

Why they chose this property

LaFollette was our choice for the easy-to-drive roads and the convenience to grocery and retail stores and marinas. We also like the private ramp that Lakeside Estates offers, and the large, quiet cove and year-round water.

What makes this property unique

The Great Escape has plenty of room for multiple families, with 9 bedrooms, 2 living rooms, 2 full kitchens, 2 dining areas, and 3 decks with plenty of seating. The kids can also enjoy the game room while the adults enjoy the hot tub. It's a short walk down to the lake - and the 2-story dock provides plenty of room with parking for 3 boats, and a top story seating area with tables and chairs. The kids will also enjoy the slide!

Our home is well maintained, in a prime area close to the jumping bridge and ski zone, with a large, private clean cove. The perfect spot for your family vacation.
