House was great and clean. Views were amazing. Water is amazing. Steps weren’t for the weak of heart but that is clearly disclosed in the listing. Owner was responsive to messages and questions I had before we arrived. Once we arrived, he checked in with us to make sure everything was good. Would definitely stay again!
The stairs and rocks to the lake were challenging. The house and property are beautiful super clean and comfortable. I would totally book this property again.
Amazing views! Absolutely beautiful. The property was well described. The lake was very low when we went which made the walk to the dock an extra challenge. We ended up getting a slip at the marina to make things easier. The kitchen is definitely small like noted in other reviews but it works.
The house is beautiful, well maintained. Great stay, highly recommend. The whole process was very simple. The owners are very informative and easy to work with.
Absolutely Incredible to say the Least. We enjoyed our Family Vacation so so much. We made amazing memories! Definitely making this an Every Year thing!!
The property is very nice, bright, and clean. It was very well stocked and had everything we needed. The steps are definitely a fitness test - as noted.
We had a group of 8 adults using the 4 bedrooms. All the beds were reported as very comfortable. The home is very well stocked for larger groups with the main dining table able to seat up to 10 people comfortably. The decks are great - particularly enjoyed the swing and the hot tub on the lower level. The steps are certainly a challenge, however with some planning to limit the trips up and down, you can enjoy boating and swimming off the nice dock as we did. Very nice home with an accommodating and responsive host. We look forward to a future return visit. BTW - the week after labor day is a great time to enjoy Norris Lake with low lake traffic.
The house has a great layout. Very functional. Kitchen was a little small to meal prep for a large group but we made it work. Rooms were spacious and clean. The view from the back was amazing. The stairs from dock to house are challenging. No carrying of coolers for sure. Hot tub wouldn’t heat up but wasn’t a big deal for the group. Overall it was great for our group and would book again.
12 adults & 1 toddler enjoyed this spacious and comfy lake house. A great place to unwind and relax. The stairs, as advertised, are definitely a challenge for any older adults or anyone unfit. A great exercise though. Would definitely recommend Carpe Diem and would stay again!
This place is very nice. Exceptionally clean and well kept.
Joe the owner was super responsive and very accommodating.
The only negative is that there are lots of step to the lake. We counted 178. So if you are in anything less than very good shape or over 60 you will want to look at another place.
Carpe Diem was a nice place to a big group (9 of us) to stay over the Thanksgiving week - it offered great views of the water, and a relaxing environment for the short vacation. The owners were very responsive to my questions and even picked up some new pie pans and a roasting pan when I let on that we were planning to make Thanksgiving dinner while there. Our dogs also loved the upper deck, as it is fully-enclosed. The hot tub was great to lounge in after a day of relaxing too. We did not get on the water, but did walk down to the dock several times and greatly enjoyed the nature. It would have been the perfect time of year for canoeing or kayaking, as there were very few other boats on the water. Great for a family trip!
We enjoyed our weekend getaway at the Drumm's lovely lake house!
Know they aren't kidding in the directions to just trust that the house is on that road - keep going. You will go past the marina another 1/2 mile and it is on the left (the directions end at the marina... but the house is past that.)
The home is comfortable and roomy. Plenty of room for our group of 8 to spread out with teenagers downstairs part of the time. We enjoyed their games, puzzles and fall football on their big screen TVs.
Great hosts. When we arrived the AC and fridge were both not working properly but Joe was very responsive and had the AC fixed quickly. I understand a fridge is on order so should not be problem going forward.
Fair warning the steps are killer! If you are not physically able to walk nearly 200 steps to get to the dock, pick a different house. You do waste time driving back and forth to the marina to pick up those who are unable to do steps. Otherwise the house and host were fantastic. This house is more designed for a couple families with kids and not really for a large group of adults. On rainy days there are no activities to do indoors for adults. The loft bed is definitely for kids and the kitchen is small and not enough seating for everyone if there are adults. Perfect tucked away quiet area for a couple families to enjoy the stay at Norris lake. House was very clean and well stocked. Plenty of towels. Listing is as described I just didn’t read carefully enough to realize it was not the best place for our large adult family vacation. Joe is great to work with and was very willing to accommodate early arrival and late departure and gave excellent directions. Would stay there again which a much smaller group. Honestly, no more then 6 adults with a few kids would be a perfect fit In this house. Thanks Joe for a great time and for sharing your house with us!
This is a very nice home. Amazing view! The home is well supplied and comfortable. The steps to the dock were a bit daunting but we managed well. Flat Hollow Marina is very nice too. I recommend this beautiful home to anyone. If you have someone who can't do the steps to your boat... Just have someone get the boat and meet you at the marina. Plenty of parking. That's what we did. Otherwise it was a beautiful week!
This is amazing place. The view from the decks are beautiful. The only downfall is the steps to the water. You have to be prepared if you plan on staying the day at the water. Would highly recommend this house to adults that are in shape.
