Wonderful Christmas Getaway

This house was the perfect size for our family of 12 ranging in ages of 9 months to 57 yo. As others have stated, the kitchen is very well stocked. The dining table was the perfect size for our group. The bottom floor was perfect for having fun in the evenings so we didn’t wake up the babies. The big Christmas tree was beautiful and perfect for our holiday week. The only downsides were: the top floor had only one bathroom with a shower for 3 bedrooms to share (we made it work), there were no instructions for starting the fireplace (finally figured it out) and it stopped working after the first night - not fun being from Florida & looking forward to a fire on a cold Christmas morning. The carpets are stained and worn, which was a bit worrisome with 2 crawling babies. The shower curtain linings were not clean and we had to wash most items in the kitchen before use as they weren’t very clean. Many lightbulbs were burned out throughout the home - the bottom floor master bath had only working bulbs over the mirror. Found the upstairs thermostat after 2 nights of freezing (instruction book would have been nice). To end on a positive note, we loved going down to the water where our 2 yo grandson loved “skipping” rocks with his uncle. The climb up the many stairs was great for working off the many Christmas sweets. Like others have said, the driveway is very steep, but all of our cars navigated it fine. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves and had a great family Christmas.

Nice home. Great owner!

The home is very well appointed and has everything you need for the trip. Eight of us stayed for a week and went without nothing. You can tell the owner keeps up on maintenance and takes good care of the property and everything that comes with it. We unfortunately did not have the greatest weather during our trip and the owner even reached out and offered for us to come a different weekend. During the trip there was a significant storm and a tree came down on the property. The owners immediately reached out to make sure we are okay as they were alerted by their ring door camera. They promptly had a crew there the following morning to remove the tree and clear the driveway so we could get back out.

Summer stay for a party of 8

The house provided ample room for all of us. The bedrooms were comfortable, and the common areas allowed us to spread out and relax. The kitchen was well stocked with essentials and plenty of various K-cup pods. The stairs leading down to the lake were a bit long, as we already knew when we booked, but the multiple landings made them manageable. Even those who needed breaks during the climb found it doable multiple times a day. The lake was deep right of the dock and great for a quick swim and easy boat docking. Our only suggestion would be to add more chairs near the dock. We loved spending time by the water, but additional seating would enhance the experience. I would recommend bringing your own boat or renting one from one of the nearby marinas.

Wonderful family getaway place.

We had a wonderful time in this spacious home on the lake. We appreciate how stocked the kitchen was with supplies. This made family meals away in the mountains easy to prepare and spend quality time. Thank you for a pleasant stay.

Phenomenal experience, great location

Absolutely loved our stay at this property. It is clean, well furnished, obviously kept up, and amazing views of the lake. Thoroughly enjoyed the quiet, set back nature of the property. Was incredibe to sit on the deck and read while drinking my coffee in the morning (coffee maker and Keurig provided!), and heading out on the lake for the afternoon. Overall the kitchen was really well stocked and plenty of books, board games, poker chips, etc. for any inside folk. Ameneties including paddleboards and kayaks were in great shape, easy to access and use for outside folk. Property owners are incredibly communicative and responsive. They seem to care a lot about their guests' experience. Was more than impressed by high quality bedding and toilet paper.

Awesome Stay!!!

What a wonderful time! My family's spring break trip to Norris was especially enjoyable at the Big Blue Lakehouse. We loved the sunsets and enjoyed breakfast on the deck. The kids had a lot of fun fishing off the dock. The water was still a little cool, but that didn't stop them from taking a quick plunge. Michelle and her team were really responsive to our questions as we were planning the trip and provided us a number of really fun ideas for day trips while we were here. House has everything you can need and more. It is HUGE! We look forward to our next trip.

Amazing Home for a Family Vacation

Our family had such an amazing stay at Michelle's lake home. The set up is absolutely perfect for extended families or a couple of families traveling together. The two master suites worked perfect and there was ample space for all the kids. We found an added bonus with the kids toys, pool table and arcade game in the lower rec room. The kitchen had everything you need to prep meals, snacks, baked goods, etc. We are looking forward to coming back again this summer.

Fun Times!

The place was well equipped, clean and beautiful! We didn't know how to work the hot tub and Michelle had someone come right out to show us! The steps were intimidating for carrying loads but we did it and it was worth it! Elderly would not be able to do it. The oldest in was group was 72. Driveway was not as scary as some reviews led you to believe. We hope to go back!

Up and Downs

House was outstanding. Couple major drawbacks however. Driveway is straight downhill. Used emergency brake to assist regular brakes. Going up the driveway was equally treacherous. Steps to boat dock (265 of them), need to be completely replaced. Railings as well. Son fell through one of them. Once again, the house is wonderful. Boat dock was great. Location on lake was great. Michelle the owner was great and let us check in early.

Beautiful house with amazing lake view

The house worked perfect for 15 people. We had 3 families with kids ranging 9-17. The house with equipped with everything we needed for the week. The dock was nice to have as we brought jet skis and a boat. The steps were a little rough going back up, but all in all was a perfect vacay. The owners were very responsive to any questions we had, and was very responsive to handle any situations we did have during our stay.

Family Xmas/New Years celebration

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the Big blue lake house. There was more than enough room for all 14 of us. The home has everything you need. We enjoyed the game room and got to introduce some ld fashion games in the game room to our grown children. The pool table was a big hit. The Christmas tree was perfect as we celebrate Christmas & New Year's there. The pictures do no justice to this beautiful home. We loved everything about this lake house home. We will be back in the summer to enjoy the lake.

We have stayed at this property for the past three years and it gets better and better every year. Our family is able to relax and enjoy our time together without having to sorry about the little details of staying away from home; so many things are accounted for and prepared before we ever arrive. Truly a special place for our children as well. We know that "the bakehouse" will stick in their memories for years :)

Amazing views and good memories

We had a party of about 15 ppl all age ranges from 1-71 and we all had an amazing time. So much so that we stayed an extra day. The views from the house of the lake are breathe taking and the house itself is so much more than even the pictures show. There was so much for everyone to do. We did not even leave the house. Except to go to the store which was about 30-40 min drive. Can’t wait to come back in the summer!!

Great place to get away!

The property is pretty secluded with just one neighbor across the tree line. It was a quiet and relaxing weekend we intended it to be. The property manager was quick to reply when we had one minor question/issue, and had it addressed quickly. We had a small group, but this place has plenty of rooms/beds/space to keep larger parties comfortable. There are quite a few steps down to the dock, and while we didn’t have a boat we got in some exercise each day walking down to the dock and back up. Overall we had a great stay.

The big blue lake house

I highly recommend the big lake house, we really enjoyed our stay there. It was so relaxing and everything you could ask for.. The host was amazing. I can't wait to hopefully vacation here again in the near future.. My kids absolutely loved it & didn't wanna leave lol.. The steps to the dock was pretty intense, but the view is absolutely worth it.. The driveway isn't as bad as some say, but again I'm from kentucky & we are use to it here.. All in all we loved our stay from young to old.. Thank you, the Botkins family 😁

A little something for everyone...

As we are packing up I wanted to leave a review while the stay was still fresh in my mind. The home is BEAUTIFUL. When we first arrived my oldest niece's jaw hit the floor and she said "this is like a rich peoples house!" The girls lived running up and down the stairs. My grandfather spent every morning out on the back patiowith a cup of coffee watching the sun rise and hit the lake. This was the first half of his dream vacation and I am so glad that it was made perfect with this home. Whenever I reached out to the property owners they were super fast to respond. The house was super clean. The steps down to the lake were a bit to steep especially with two in our party being on Oxygen. But the hot tub more than made up for not being able to swim in the lake. Oh also be warned the road leading to the house is very winding. Do not take it fast. In all we would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Lund

Host profile image
We LOVE our lake home! It is truly our happy place. We are originally from the Omaha, NE area and relocated to Cincinnati in 2015. Norris Lake was a wonderful find for us. We spend a lot of time at the lake house making memories for our three young children and our four grown children and their families. The house brings us so much happiness, and we hope it will for you and your families as well

Why they chose this property

Who could ask for more?! We sit directly on the lake with both steps and an ATV path to the private dock. The home sits in a private community where you will find your own kind of serenity. The wildlife is endless! Coffee in the morning and drinks in the evening on one of the decks will be a highlight of your vacation. From the dock you can fish, swim or catch some rays. A short boat ride away, you will find a jumping bridge. Jimmy's place has phenomenal food and service and a GREAT staff of super friendly people if you are not interested in preparing your own meals. This house comes with everything you could want - extra towels, toiletries, paper products, pots, pans, slow cooker, blender, grill -- you name it...we probably have it!

What makes this property unique

Quiet! With easy water access to excitement. When we come here...we don't leave! Amazing lake views and mountain views from 360 degrees. Wrap around covered porch on 3 sides allows guests to enjoy nature even if Mother Nature doesn't cooperate.
