Here at Suits Us Fine, natural light warms the two story great room with floor to ceiling, lake-facing windows. An expansive and well-stocked kitchen with a big island also offers a large counter bar peninsula for serving and additional seating. Near the three-sided decorative fireplace beyond the large dining area, an enclosed three season porch opens to the great room and the full width main level deck.
The master bedroom on the main level also offers a private walk-out to its own decked balcony with a gorgeous lake view, as well as an adjoining newly-renovated bath with walk-in shower and convenient first floor laundry room. Downstairs, two full updated baths are conveniently located for everyone coming up from the lake after a great day on the water, and serve the three bedrooms on the lower level as well.
All kinds of cozy nooks and unique spaces make this a fun house to explore and settle into. An awesome new game room with a beverage refrig provides a fun hang-out spot for everyone rain or shine, while the lower level family room offers another gathering area with walk-out doors to enjoy the patio and expanded lower deck with its panoramic lakeview, adirondack chairs, fire table, cornhole set, covered grill stand, outdoor wicker couches and chairs with comfy cushions, dining table, deck swing for two and the new 6- person hot tub with bluetooth speakers.
A circle driveway provides ideal parking for as many as 10-12 vehicles, and the outdoor firepit on the gravel landing adds to the outdoor fun. Parking on the low traffic street above the driveway is also available for 3-4 additional vehicles and watercraft / ATV trailers.
Take the stairs to the lake, or meander on the gravel path at the end of the circle drive down to the 5' wide steps to the lakefront dock. The large platform dock offers a ladder and room enough to pull up additional watercraft on either side. There, you'll open your stay to the relaxation of hanging out on the dock with its own table, , enjoy the free kayaks, or launch your way out to every water adventure on Norris Lake you can imagine! While the main channel view is stunning, there's just enough of a cove to provide safety for those who'd just like to float around or watch the kids splash in the water.
Owners have purchased and totally renovated "Suits Us Too" (vrbo # 3001464) as a companion home right next door on another 2 acres. It will feature a brand new covered dock, 6 bedrooms and 5 full baths, and will be able to accommodate another 22 guests - reserve both for your larger group and family gatherings, sleeping up to 45 together.
Book with us, and we'll also provide a suggested packing list, floorplans and sleeping arrangement diagrams, vacation guidebook to the cabin AND surrounding lake and area attractions, as well as Norris Lake maps and marina guide.

Big Creek on Norris Lake is a favorite stretch of water, well known for its seclusion and wooded shorelines. There's also a nearby skiing course for learners, and several of the lake's best marinas are close by, including Whitman Hollow, Sequoiah, Stardust and Twin Cove. Closest boat launch would be at Whitman Hollow Marina
Best transportation is by car on land, but to navigate the lake, boats and jet skis work best - although we do suggest bringing your own paddle boards, kayaks or tubes to just enjoy floating around. But around the property, feel free to walk or hike, enjoying the natural beauty and low-traffic area near the lake!
