We found a little gem of a property with Derrick and Meredith’s “mother-in-law” suite by Norris Lake. We love the lake life and on a whim, scheduled a long weekend at the property. We were pleasantly surprised to find a very clean, comfortable property with all the space our family of 4 needed for a few days. The kitchenette was perfect for making easy meals, and the sleeper sofa was perfect for our kids (10 and 7). The bed was comfortable, the internet was great to stream videos (and catch up on work email). But the real prize of the property is the dock—it’s perfect for sunbathing, swimming or fishing. They also have all the water toys you could want: kayaks, a paddle board, a lily pad mat, and water noodles. They also have a spacious tritoon boat for rent as well as jet skis. We rented the boat for a day, and Derrick took the time to walk us through all the boat’s “bells and whistles” so we felt confident taking it out on the water. They have knee boards and tubes for the boat, too!
As far as hosts, Derrick was excellent! Very communicative and responsive to my questions. You can’t go wrong with this property if you’re looking for a fun, relaxing weekend at the lake.
