Quaint Winter Getaway

We stayed at the cabin for 5 days! There was 6 adults, 6 teenagers, a two year old and an infant. We all comfortably fit into the cabin! It was clean, no bugs. We used the hot tub a bunch and the three fire places throughout our stay. The kitchen has everything you need. Bring toilet paper, paper towels, large trash bags, and dish soap. We had to make a run after the fact to grab some items which was fine!

Family Christmas at Barefoot

As listed, photos pretty accurate. Everyone had a great time playing games, eating, and trying to fish. No one got a bite but that could be the water was so low. We only had one fish day because some pretty good storms came through. We loved the large tables for game playing, several groups were playing at the same time. The house also has lots of play zones for the children. The garage play area needs a little heat in there, too cold for me to watch the kids playing.

Family lake time

Great covered dock for 2 boats with upstairs deck! not to bad of walk up to the house. Large rooms with lots of space to cook and gather together as a family. Yet spacious enough to separate for some quiet time. The younger adults very much enjoyed the ping pong table!

Great house on Norris Lake

Thank you for allowing us to use your home! My family had a great time at this house on Norris Lake. The house is beautiful with many different areas for relaxing. Two beautiful decks with fireplaces and a screened in porch. It is very well equipped. We had a lot of fun with a shuffleboard table and corn hole. We created many wonderful memories from our week at the lake. Andrea and Brian were great hosts and very responsive.

Great place overall

We have been staying at Barefoot Landing every year since 2016. The kitchen has everything you need, ice maker is a plus, huge refrigerator, comfortable beds, two big decks and lots of room to get away for alone time. The cove is great as we spend most of our day on the dock now that the kids are older. Highly recommended for family gatherings.

Relaxing Stay

We all enjoyed the week at Norris Lake in this property. A quieter part of the lake, made it more comfortable Large house, with two amazing (large) porches and a two-boat, two-story dock made a great lake experience. Renters were easy to access and very helpful as well.

Perfect house for families and friends of all ages!

Barefoot Landing accommodated both the young and the old very well. The extra large double sided refrigerator, chest freezer, commercial ice-maker, Blaze grill, and gas stove with a large griddle made cooking fun! The kitchen also had one of the largest islands I have ever seen! One of the best features of this house was the dock and boathouse. It was easy to fish standing on the back of the dock, and the front of the dock with the ladder was fabulous for those who were into diving and swimming. There were a few more steps than we anticipated, but it was all doable. We had a wakeboard boat and a pontoon, and they weathered the occasional storm without a problem. The upper deck was wonderful for sunbathing and hanging out. The shuffleboard and the hot tub were a hit with everyone. Sleeping spaces were spacious, and all of the regular beds were very comfortable. The children even commented how comfortable the bunkroom was! The mattresses on the bed and the trundle bed in the apartment over the garage were not quite as comfortable, but that was private and a great getaway. The game room/garage needs updating -the pool table is badly dinged and the ping-pong table and basketball game are broken and unusable. The foosball game was the only game that was truly usable in that area. Barefoot Landing is THE place to rent if you have multiple families or varying ages of people. I would certainly return to this property!

Early May Lake Trip

My friends and I spent three nights at Barefoot Landing and had a great time. Communication throughout the booking process and stay was easy and effective. Barefoot Landing has a stunning view of the lake from nearly all parts of the property. We most enjoyed the kitchen, deck and dock along with the multiple areas for evening outdoor fires. Our only thoughts of improvement include stocking the house with essential supplies, updating some of the game room items and checking for functionality of the amenities prior to move in. The hot tub was unfortunately down a pump and out of commission for the weekend, though Brian was quick to address our questions and issues. I would certainly recommend this property to friends or families looking for a quiet cove to enjoy.

Unforgettable Family Getaway at Barefoot Landing

Our large family decided to ring in the New Year at Barefoot Landing, a VRBO rental. Despite being tucked away in a tranquil place with limited cell service, Wi-Fi is available and the property's amenities more than made up for it. The heart of our celebration was undoubtedly the kitchen. It was a cook's paradise, fully stocked and ready for our family’s food enthusiasts to whip up holiday meals. The joy of cooking together brought us closer, transforming meal prep into a cherished bonding activity. The living spaces were cozy, with fireplaces that added a warm touch to our holiday gathering. They became our favorite spots for sharing stories and playing games. Meanwhile, the game rooms, packed with options for all ages, were a big hit with everyone. Despite the lack of cell signal, the charm of Barefoot Landing lies in its perfect blend of tranquillity and adventure. It created a memorable backdrop for our family's New Year's celebration, making it an experience we'll never forget.

Great Adult Sibling Fall Weekend

This was our second year at barefoot Landing. We have a large group of siblings and their spouses.(13) The kitchen is huge and well, equipped for staying in and cooking. The view of the lake is beautiful, and we enjoyed sitting on the top deck of the dock in the afternoon sunshine, as well as building a fire in the evening. There are three fireplaces to enjoy, lots of large tables to sit together and play games as well as a game room in the garage, and other ways to entertain and have friendly competition. Everything is top-notch, except for maybe the mattresses, but for a couple of nights, they are fine.
