Quiet Spot on the Lake!
We enjoyed our stay so much! We had four adults, and four children ranging in age from 2-9. There was plenty of room to spread out, and the kids enjoyed the lower level. The dock was perfect for swimming and docking our boat for the week. We utilized the paddle boat, kayaks, and floaties as well! The cove is quiet and does not have a lot of boat traffic. We were able to fully relax and enjoy the clear water and beautiful views of Norris Lake! We would definitely return!

Fantastic Stay! You can’t go wrong with this property and location!
This is the second time we’ve stayed at this house. We love the cove, the area of the lake, the dock and the house. The hosts are very responsive and even took the time to call us to make sure everything was good the second day of our stay. We did have an incident where thief’s stole items off our two boat mid week. Items stolen were not visible from water. Even if you think something secure and hidden, a thief will always find a way. This was unfortunate and we learned a hard lesson. However the owners were great in keeping in contact with us while we worked with law enforcement. The officer stated they get 3-4 reports daily for the entire lake. We would stay here again.

Beautiful view
We rented this home for thanksgiving to meet mid way with family. The driveway is very steep! The house doesn’t allow pets yet I saw pet hair all over the floor. Overall the house did not look like it was just cleaned for our visit but rather like it sat for a while not being rented. Another disappointing thing was it didn’t have a wine bottle opener. I messaged the owner and they said there should be one but there wasn’t. I would have expected them to send one over. It definitely didn’t provide any of the usual necessities you get with other rental cabins such as paper towels, trash bags etc. Found that kind of weird. Overall the house is spacious and views are beautiful. We enjoyed the kayaks and had a great time.

Best Get-Away Ever
If I could give Hiwassee Hideaway more than 5 stars, I would! The house was absolute perfection…our hosts left plenty of supplies and lots of information about restaurants and things to do…they were amazing!!!! The minute we walked into the house, our stress level disappeared and we were in heaven! It was so incredibly peaceful and looking out of the full wall of windows in the morning while the sun came up took our breath away. House was immaculate, beds were extremely comfortable and the house had plenty of amenities. Planning on making Hiwasse Hide-away our annual “retreat”. Rent this house….you won’t be dissappointed!!!!

Great location!
This spot on the lake was excellent - quiet cove, close to nice boating water, and not too far from highway/grocery. The stairs and dock setup were fabulous. Nicest stairs of any Norris property I've been to in the 8 years we've been going. The house was well equipped and big enough for our group. However, we found the single bath on the main floor to be just not enough for the 4 adults sharing it, just personal preference. The kid space downstairs was excellent for sleeping, playing, watching TV, etc. The only downfall on the property in my opinion was the outdoor space. The large table was on the lower deck right outside the kid's room. This wasn't ideal for groups with small kids who get to bed earlier. The owner was responsive and friendly. Overall, great experience and yet another amazing vacation on beautiful Norris Lake!

Hiawassee @ Norris Lake
This property is very nice and on a quiet cove which makes it great to swim in lake. There is a marina just a 5 min boat ride away that will drop off your boat rental right to dock, which was very convenient. All the stairs from house to dock can make it challenging and a chore if you forget something and very slippery when caught in rainy weather. Three recommendations to the owners: 1) the path from stairway to house, which are pavers in the ground on the hillside...are dangerous when wet. Maybe a concrete sidewalk would be better. 2) the baby gate at house does not fit the opening at top of stairs, would recommend finding one that does. We had a toddler with us and had to improvise to block the stairway. 3) the new lights installed in master bathroom above sink are not high enough for average height people. Both my husband and I are 5'9" and 5'8" respectively and had to duck to see in the mirror. Otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property and hope to be back.

Great week
We had a great first trip to Norris! We loved this home and the location. Our boys (17, 15 and 13) loved the jumping rocks just outside the quiet cove. We rented a jet ski for 2 days from twin cove Marina and the pick up and drop off was very easy. (We also rented a boat but we waited too long and had to drive pretty far to get it and the return process wasn’t as easy as if we had rented from a close marina). I’d recommend renting a boat from mountain lake or twin cove but make sure to do it early. The driveway at this home took some time to get used to as it is steep but it was no where near as steep and long as some of the others we saw in the area. We preferred going down the gravel side and up the paved side if that’s helpful. 😂. My 3 boys and I were also able to join a local gym (for 1 week) to go to in the mornings. It was only 15 minutes away and the price was very reasonable. (Top Fitness). The owner’s recommended El Charro (Mexican) for us to try for dinner and our whole family loved it! We left a menu in the information booklet at the house.
Thanks for a great week!!

Spectacular!
We were literally pulling our of our driveway (boat in tow) when the owner of our OTHER rental called to let us know they had a water line break and the rental was flooded. We got online and reached out to the owners of "Hiwassee Hideaway" and they responded immediately . They got their cleaning crew into the house and we were able to check-in that evening. They were so kind, considerate and accommodating! The house was fantastic and the location is perfect. We can't say enough great things about them and the house!

Great place to stay!
The house was lovely, and convenient to Mountain Lake marina. Well kept dock on quiet cove. Just perfect for my family to enjoy the long weekend. House was nicely decorated and furnished. The owners clearly take pride in their home. My only suggestion is two of the toilets were really small, so not the best for tall/larger folks.

Perfect vacation spot!
If you are looking for a beautiful, peaceful place to relax and unwind, look no further! My family loved hanging out for a week here in the privacy of this beautiful cove. We spent a lot of time floating in the crystal clear water at the dock. We enjoyed the kayaks, paddleboat, firepit, and the dock for fishing, We also rented a boat from Mountain Lake Marina which is right across the lake from here. They even delivered the boat right to our dock. Very convenient. The home is well stocked and provided everything we needed in addition to an amazing view! The check in process and communication with the owner was great.
