This lakefront property well exceeded our expectations. Plenty of space for everyone. The front yard was perfect for volleyball and egg hunts. Dock was great to fly kites and fish. Plenty of room in the kitchen for food and cooks.This will be on our list of rebooks for future trips.
Loved our stay!! There was 15 adults and 6 children, but still room to be seperate when you needed a break from the noise and activities! The dear strolling thru in the evening and morning was really nice too.
We spend time with the men's ministry of our church and we had a blast!!!
Host was very communicative, the house clean and in a nice area with a great view!
We will return for sure!
Beautiful house with wide open spaces for family to gather both inside and outside. Perfect home for a family to rent. Great location beautiful view. The house is even more spectacular in person than in the pictures. We will stay here again!
My family of 27 (7 siblings and our families) were able to book Field of Dreams last minute and John Bertke was so kind and helpful! All needed information came quickly from John. The house is amazing! It has a great space for family to hang out together! The kids loved the spacious bunk room. Although it was cold and snowy when we were there, so we couldn't enjoy the beautiful outdoors, we had 7 family members do a POLAR PLUNGE! We could have used a few more towels, but that is the only thing I would change. I'm hopeful to have our next family gathering there!
The home was amazing!..The photos dont give the home the credit it deserves. The house was warm and inviting and everyone had lots of room to move around. I would give the home and property a strong A+++
We had 9 adults and 9 children under 8. Pictures donât do it justice. Place was beautiful and plenty of room for everyone, to be together or just off by yourself. It was overcast/rainy most of week but we still had great fun in the water. Lawn was big but hadnât been mowed so a little too long for kids to play but everyone had a relaxing good time
Wonderful house for Large Group and Small Children
We chose this house largely due to the flat ground, less steps and number of bedrooms / bathrooms. We had small children that we did not want to worry about falling. The house was perfect! The openness of the house was wonderful for our large group and we did not feel crowded. The kitchen had everything we needed and the large ice machine saved us so much time and money by not having to drive and purchase ice for our coolers and drinks. The yard was great to play outdoor games. Prior to our stay the owner always answered our questions very quickly and we had no issues to contact him for during our stay. We thought the house was great and would definitely recommend staying here. Hopefully we will be able to plan another vacation here!
Property was in a very remote location. This may be fine in warmer months but inconvenient to travel to places in the area from there. The house had everything we needed. The fireplace was not working and we had no response from anyone regarding this. It would have been nice to have this again as it was a bit colder. The dock also was floating and not brought to shore until the middle of our stay. We were unable to fish at that time and that was one big reason we chose this place. Great layout in the house for a group and most likely a great place to stay in warmer months.
Absolute perfect stay for our large group of 25+. The home has gorgeous views from the entire rear of the home. The large deck off the family room is where we spent lots of our time. We had two wakeboats so the double boat dock was perfect. The large well equipped kitchen allowed us to cook for the large group with no issues. The house is well maintained and very clean. The large bunk room was great for extra space as well. My only thoughts for others to note is the house does sit on the main area of the lake, we did not get much floating time due to traffic on the water creating a lot of waves, same with the upper deck on the water. The waves definitely cause the upper deck to move significantly so we chose not to spend much time up there. Overall we were extremely impressed and happy with Field of Dreams!
We had a great stay with our whole extended family. It's rare to find one home we can all fit in and also afford. The space was great, and the property managers were quick to respond to questions and resolve issues. The linens could use an update, but other than that everything was fantastic.
The house was perfect for our group of 30 - ages 3 - 70+. We had plenty of room for everyone. The 3 refrigerators, 2 dishwashers and 2 living rooms made the logistics so much easier to deal with. The views were stunning and there were so many deer! We couldn't have chosen a better home for our week long wedding adventure.
This is a beautiful home, situated on an incredibly nice, level lot. I hosted 8 managers for a corporate retreat and this property worked perfectly for our needs. The host was very responsive too!
This is a great property on Lake Norris. Our larger group loved the house and the instant access to the water. We had an issue with the kitchen sinking leaking but the maintenance crew was right in it and had us up and running in about 2 hrs. We would definitely stay again.
John Bertke lives in Dayton Ohio and enjoys visiting Norris with his friends and family. He enjoys fishing and smoking cigars. He started managing this property in January 2019
The Hintz family provides us this fantastic property located on a rare, flat Norris Lake tract of land. A beautiful home for the perfect friends & family gathering place.
