Our stay at Lakin' It Easy was great! This was our group's first time at Norris Lake and Paula was a great resource and host.
She was always prompt to respond and gave very thorough answers to my many questions! We had 8 adults, 10 kids and 1 infant and the house was perfect for our large group - the covered patios were perfect for late evening downtime or taking shelter from the couple of rain showers we had. The overall layout of the house is incredibly functional for a rental house and it had the most well-stocked kitchen of any rental any of us had ever stayed in. Plus there were lots of little touches throughout the house including an ice maker, tons of hooks to hang towels or wet clothes on, an extra full size fridge right off the kitchen and various baskets throughout the house that demonstrated the owners put a lot of thought and effort into making the property a perfect fit for renters. There were plenty of outdoor seating options and various hang-out spaces to ensure you never felt crowded. The location on the lake was perfect too - stunning views, excellent swimming off the covered dock, endless spots for tubing, and a short ride to various marinas. When searching for a rental at Norris, it would be hard to top Lakin' It Easy! One thing to note if you are needing to work while you are away, the internet and cell service was spotty (through no fault of the owners - the information sheet says they have the best available internet option for the area). After adjusting to this, we found it nice to unplug for the week and truly live in the moment with those around you, but a few members of our group had to unexpectedly cancel some meetings so I thought it might be helpful to let you know in advance. This property is absolutely amazing!
