10/10
This was our first time going to Norris Lake as a family of 11, ranging in age from 13 through 75. Our initial concern was the number of steps (77), but even the two oldest adults were able to use the steps without difficulty--a stop to take a breathe once in a while was all. The house is well stocked with great appliances (the extra ice maker really came in handy). The kitchen was well stocked. Having two refrigerators was a big plus. The house sleeps 20 so our 11 family members had plenty of room. We loved the house but, I think, that the big hit from this stay was the dock. Our grandchildren used the kayaks and paddle board everyday. Almost everyone enjoyed the sliding board and the jumping platform. I'm 75, and I actually did the slide a few times! The whole family loved the lounge and rocking chairs. I'll add that the water was so clear and most of the time we had the cove area to ourselves. We did not have an opportunity to use the fire pit, but the lighting at the fire pit was quite nice. There was plenty of parking for our four vehicles. We did use the Blackstone one evening so the family sized picnic table was perfect for our group. I must add that the owners were very quick to respond to any questions that we had which was an added plus. The family consensus was that this was a really fun, relaxing vacation and that was directly related to the home and the dock. We did rent a pontoon boat from Sugar Hollow Marina, and the kids loved their water park.
