About this house rental

Located in Norris Lake, this attractive house for $764 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. Located in a deep water bend of Norris Lake, Afternoon Sun offers two amazing vacations in one. A modern mountain home, situated on 5 wooded, peaceful acres with abundant wildlife and all the comforts and conveniences needed to perfectly sleep 16 people. Once feeling relaxed and rested, pack up the tram for the 2.5 minute ride down to the largest dock on the lake. Including a 1000 sq ft upper deck, there is plenty of space to park/use your lake toys, entertain your family/friends, and prepare/serve the days meals. Once your coolers and bluetooth speakers batteries are near empty, the days last light still won't have reached the mountain peaks opposite you. Watch the majestic sunset across the backdrop of the surrounding mountains or it's time to retreat back to the house and unwind on one of the decks/porches, by one of the two gas fireplaces, around the wood-burning firepit, or on any of the brand new furniture. Finish one of the best days of your year planning the next one's adventures where you can take advantage of our high speed internet to re-book "Afternoon Sun" for your next lake and mountain retreat! A very comfortable 4,292 sq/ft modern home (2007) that features a luxury double decker dock (1000 sq/ft), 5 bedrooms, 4 baths, 5+ acres of fun outdoor space with custom constructed fire pit, outdoor shower, large outdoor patio for grilling, covered porch and lower patio with hot tub overlooking the lake/sunsets, and a screened in porch with a propane fireplace. In addition, the property conveniently offers a custom tram (holds 1000 lbs) that arrives at the main level of the property and completes a 2.5 minute ride down to the dock (8 - 15 stairs remaining once you arrive at the dock; depends on lake level). The luxury double decker dock and deep water (35 ft from edge of dock) makes for complete afternoons swimming in the Afternoon Sun of Norris Lake. Ample outdoor furniture allows for all family and friends to lay out, play with lake toys, ski, and watch the sunset from the best positioned dock in East TN. The cozy modern home offers the best of East TN yet is conveniently located 9 minutes (most are 30+) from the interstate at exit 129 (Rocky Top) where a Cracker Barrel and liquor store are both located. In addition, due to its location, the property has complete HIGH SPEED WIRELESS INTERNET. (We stress this as many homes on the lake have satellite internet due to their distance and remoteness. Satellite internet has bandwidth and data limitations. With our internet, you can stream movies, stream music, or, if needed, take video conferences calls all day long without interruption. We recommend the more enjoyable options.) The main level features the master suite with a private walk out to the covered deck and views of the private lake property, king bed, crib, private bath w/ walk-in shower & jacuzzi tub, a custom kitchen with a high end stove (added 2022: https://zlinekitchen.com/zline-60-range) and subzero refrigerator unit, laundry room, a great room with a custom built stone propane fireplace, access to the covered deck and screened in porch, a queen day bed with a pull out twin trundle in a room that can double as an office (custom built desk/bookshelf w/n that room). Access to the patio and tram is also on the main level behind the kitchen through the screened-in porch. The lower-level features a fun, spacious recreational area with a 65" TV with complete surround sound, a kitchenette (full size refrigerator), two separate bedrooms (one king & one queen), one with a private luxury bathroom with walk-in shower while the other’s luxury bathroom is accessible from within the bedroom and from the rec room. If needed, in the rec area there is a pullout out couch to sleep the 15th or 16th guest (if this is planning to be used, please let us know in advance so we can apply the appropriate bedding). A bonus room is located above the laundry room and garage which is the ideal teenager/kid space with two separate bunk beds (4 twins), a queen bed, couch, and TV for the late night gaming/movie binging one needs.

A great option to have it ready and waiting for you upon your arrival!) ✓ 9 minutes from I-75 to House (9.5 minutes to breakfast (Cracker Barrel) or to the liquor store) ✓ 40 min drive to Neyland Stadium and Thompson-Boling Arena for SEC football games, basketball games, and concerts ✓ 50 min drive to Knoxville McGee Tyson Airport (TYS) ✓ Boat rentals of all kinds ✓ Several Marina’s on Norris Lake have restaurants and live music so you never have to leave the Lake! ✓ Great family entertainment such as Twin Cove Marina, the Museum of Appalachia, Coal Creek Miner’s Museum, Cove Lake State Park ✓ And so much more *Note: - Check-in is 4:00 PM - Check out is 10:00 AM. - Effective Oct 1st 2020; any desired usage of the hydrohoist (boat lift) requires an additional fully refundable deposit of $500, a daily fee of $40, and provide make & model of your boat to allow us to verify weight & height do not exceed capacity (4400 lbs is the weight limit for the boat lift). - There is a private 7-person jetted hot tub located on the rear lower covered patio overlooking the lake and mountains.

Our group comes to Norris each year but we have outgrown our usual spot so decided to try this out. Overall the house, dock and location were great. It's really convenient to I-75 and having Twin Cove Marina across the lake made it easy for boat rental, gas and ice. The driveway to the house was less steep than most houses we have stayed in. The kitchen was well stocked and it was nice to have a large fridge upstairs and another one on the lower level. The overall cleanliness of the house and dock area needed some attention. The floors were dirty and we actually ended up scrubbing the dock ladder ourselves because they were so slippery. The tram was nice to have to get the kids and gear down but note it is the only way to get up and down. We found it would have been nice to have a secondary way to get up the hill for quick runs as the tram takes about 8 mins round trip and can only hold 800 lbs. Overall it's a lovely house and location and we really enjoyed our time.

Nice spacious place! The additional living areas, front and side deck, where awesome to have in the evenings! The trolley made it easy to get coolers and items down to dock. Side note that trolley is the ONLY way to access the dock so just be aware. Owners where easy to communicate with. Only complaint I have is the place was not very clean, no fault to owners as hard to manage remotely. Very beautiful place and the lake area was not super busy so safe and comfortable place to float right off the dock area.

The house was exactly as described and had plenty of space for our group of 12. The bunk room was perfect for kids. The location is great and very close to Twin Cove marina. We rented a boat and the employees were nice enough to come pick us up at the dock. The tram is nice and is the only way to get to the dock. Overall very nice!
