Although we love our fur babies, ABSOLUTELY NO PETS, at this time.

At Glen's Getaway, you first step up to the main level deck and enter through the full view front door to unveil the fresh, open floor plan, with the entire east facing wall made up of windows to take in the Tennessee views.

There is a large comfy sectional couch, chairs, end table with OSB outlets and a coffee table to gather around.

We also have a plethora of baking pans, crock pots, cocktail glasses, serving dishes and utensils placed in the pantry or cabinets so you can assemble or grill any spread you and your friend's desire.
(We will provide basic cleaning supplies, some dish tabs and trash bags. Please note, there is NO GARBAGE DISPOSAL.)
Glen's Getaway has 6 spacious and tastefully decorated bedrooms that sleep 16-2 rooms on each floor of our tri-leveled house. All bedrooms have a ceiling fan for those who need that constant soft breeze or white noise. The main floor bedrooms are just off a short hall. The left BR has a queen bed, nightstand, dresser and a desk for taking time to write a letter or do a little work if necessary. (Closest door remains locked for supplies.) The right BR has a queen bed, full length mirror, nightstand, shelving and ensuite. The upper level features the largest BR on the left with a queen bed, futon, dresser, bedside table and an ensuite. (Closet remains locked for supplies.) The right BR has a queen bed with storage below it, shelving and also an ensuite. The two lower-level bedrooms are windowless, so they are perfect for those afternoon nappers, young and old. The left BR has a queen bed, dresser, end table with OSB ports, a dimmable overhead light with remote, a full-size closet and a large screen television. The right BR has a bunk bed-twin/full size mattresses, futon bed, plus a twin mattress stored below the bunk that is pulled out and remains on the floor. It has a chair for lounging, shelving and also a dimmable light with remote.
When you take the stairwell down to the recreation room, you're met again with the full picture windows and a sliding door that leads out to the lower-level deck. There is a large screen, smart T.V. that you can watch a sporting event or movie on. There's a cushy couch and loveseat to lounge upon and the coffee table, it is extendable. You can pull it up for ease of reach or leave it flat, so that you can play one of our interactive family board games together. You could also challenge each other at a game of ping pong or table tiki toss. Your group could karaoke with our rocking-color changing Bluetooth speaker. Everyone can enjoy our rec room-we also have puzzles, cards and a few children books and toys. There is also a breakfast table against the far wall, along with some cabinets, a sink and another refrigerator/freezer for storing any of your overflow food and beverages.

The first communal bath is off the main floor and second shared bathroom is in the lower level of the house. The other 3 are ensuites. All bathrooms come with 1 SET of TOWELS-that is 1 washcloth, 1 hand towel and 1 body towel for a total of 5 sets. PLEASE PROVIDE YOUR OWN ADDITIONAL BATH TOWELS AND LAKE TOWELS. (We will provide a bottle of pump soap and a roll of toilet paper for each bathroom.)
At Glen's Getaway, we have several entertainment activities on our multi-level decks. Our lowest deck has a putting green that you and your friends can test your stroking ability on. We then have tiki toss, tumbling towers and cornhole available for play on the lower-walkout deck. There is a picnic table that can convert into two benches, additional chairs and tables that way the whole group can gather for the festivities.
The main level deck houses the grill, a covered dining area for six with adjustable lighting, fan, a few chairs and side tables to allow for more seating. All of our decks are a favorable place to watch the birds, the stars and your friends have a good time! (Please do not enter outdoor locked area-for host's supply use only.)
Your guests could head down the lighted stairs to the landing, where you can gather around the fire pit to roast hot dogs, make s'mores or take in the ambience of a nighttime fire with the company and laughter of others.
(Pending NO TVA posted ban on burning.)
Venture further down the steps to the private boat dock. The dock has one covered boat slip and can withstand a max dock load of two boats and two jet skis. The dock has towel hooks and sun powered lighting. The still waters of the no-wake cove allow the perfect conditions to take our kayaks out for a spin. You can bring your own floaties, tubes, or mats and recline for hours in these calm, clean waters. You can bring your paddle board and just ride off into the sunset, take a dive off the dock or reel in some nice fish.
Flat Hollow Marina is located just 1/2 mile from our home, so it makes bringing your boat or jet ski a breeze or take up the opportunity to rent one from them! They provide a variety of rentals and supplies. They have a restaurant varying nightly entertainment, such as trivia and live music and it is just a short walk, boat or car ride away.

Perfect family vacation home
We had multiple families and kids of all ages on our trip. The house was very clean, comfortable, well stocked, and had so many fun activities for the kids! Great no wake location and close to the marina making it easy to launch boats. We had a blast!

Great Vacation
Have stayed in 9 different houses on Norris Lake. This one rates up there with the best. The property manager was excellent to work with as there were a few minor issues that were resolved quickly. The two things to be known is there are 70 steps from the dock to the house and the house sets back a good distance from the main water.

Great house for our group of 14 (3 families)
This was our first year staying at Flat Hollow Marina. We had an awesome stay at Glen’s Getaway! The property was in excellent condition, as advertised. The only complaint we had, the last few steps to the dock were a little sketchy but looked like they may have just been a temporary fix. We also didn’t read you needed to bring bath towels (they supply a few) but that was our fault. The kids enjoyed the putting green and ping pong table. We loved being able to have our morning coffee and mimosas on the dock and gather around the dining table on the deck for dinner. Thanks again for being gracious and communicative hosts! In our kids words (22 and 15), this was the best trip ever.
