Great house!
Beautiful home and we had a great stay! I do Wish it would have been mentioned that the dock didn’t have power. We had a jet ski to plug in but Noami was great and went and bought us an extension cord to use during our stay! Naomi also had to come and reconfigure the door lock, when we arrived we couldn’t get in. Luckily, the back doors were unlocked and we found a way in. The dock could also have some hooks to help hang life vest and towels. And the basement bedroom didn’t have a remote to the tv. But again the house and our stay was great!! Would definitely stay again.

The best vacation home ever!
This was perfect for our large family! Everything was so clean and you truly could never be bored with so much to do. We loved the ability to bring our own jetski and leave it at the dock. We absolutely loved this home and can’t wait to visit again!

Just awesome
It’s peaceful, it’s perfect for families, it has great amenities. The downstairs game room is awesome. Main floor has the best view. The stairs are no joke! Though the water’s down right now about 15’. Fishing is TOUGH. The WiFi does ok, but you’re not really there to use it a ton. Just know it might lag if you have work stuff to do. Had a late evening AC issue on the single hot day we had. Someone was out the next morning by 930 working on it. Great customer service. This place was fantastic. Will look to come back!

Excellent retreat!
We had a marvelous time in this space. It was fun for my friend’s grandkids and the popcorn machine and movie room were a huge blessing on a rainy day!

Amazing despite the steps!
This house is everything you’d want it to be if you’re looking for a quiet family retreat. Clean, fun, quiet when it needs to be, private dock for floating, convenient access to the marina. The steps wear on ya after a day, even when planning what to take in one trip, sometimes there’s just too much. There is no electricity at the dock although there are lights and outlets. Bring your own toys as you prefer and have a great time!!

Great spring break!
The house was perfect - 2 families (9 kids between 10 and 16). We had ng out, paddle boarded, fished from the dock, rented a boat, cooked, played games, watched movies. The house was super clean, easy check in/out, and had what we needed for the week. My only recommendation is that if you have a bigger group, you probably want to bring a large frying pan or electric skillet.

Great Vacation home
Best beds ever. We loved the cabin, lots of room for 6 of us. This home has an awesome theater room, the internet connection causes some buffering, but they also had dvds to watch. Beautiful, comfortable home. Thank you

Great 25th Anniversary Gathering
We rented this home to with our friends to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We had a great time! Plenty of space for everyone to have private sleeping quarters. We ate breakfast and dinners on the large outdoor dining table. Spent nights enjoying the stars on the upper deck of the boat dock. Rented a boat for 2 days to tour Norris Lake and having the noodles and rafts were helpful for swimming. My only reservation would be the number of steps (60+) and steep grade of the driveway may be very challenging for some!

This place was perfect. We couldn’t have asked for better place. Beds were super comfy and the amazing selection of movies for the theater room had the kids excited to hunker down at night. Definitely will stay again.

Great Lake house
We stayed for a long weekend for a girls trip and this house was perfect! Such a nice house, everything was very clean and there was plenty of space for 11 of us. The dock was great and we had a good time at Beach Island Marina/Bubba Brews for dinner one night, which was only about a 10 minute drive/boat ride. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay!

Overall Great Experience
My group consisted of two families of four, so four adults and four kids total. The setup of the home was fantastic for us and it was sparkling clean upon arrival. It's packed with cool features like the ping pong table and theater room, and has a nice, spacious dock. The location is also easy to access and has close proximity to Beach Island marina for the boat launch, as well as Bubba brews for food and drinks. Our only few gripes were some tv remotes that didn't work, horrible "hotel" toilet paper, and a really dirty dock and dock chairs (which to be fair, can happen overnight at Norris). To use the movie theater, you have to follow a full page instruction sheet so setup is not easy, especially for kids. While Vacasa only says "No Trailers" at the home, they do not offer another solution for storage, but luckily the local marina allowed us to store ours there for the weekend. Overall, these complaints are minor compared to how nice the house is and the experience it provided for our group. I'd definitely recommend it and we would stay here again in the future.

Great place to retreat!
We have stayed at Blue Sky Retreat a couple times now and we love it! Such a great location on the lake, very clean, and great accomodations. This place has everything you need. The movie theater also provides unmatched indoor entertainment. Can't wait to go back!
