Welcome to Norris lake!
Relax in a prime end slip location at straight creek marina. Boat remains docked in slip.
Great spot to fish and relax on the water!
Please note that this space is basic!
NO SMOKING
NO PETS
Please note this listing is for the boat to stay at the dock as a floating camper. It is available for rent as a navigable houseboat through the marina. The tiny houseboat is a single level open studio style space in a private end slip at Straight Creek marina.
Very quiet and peaceful area. It's ideal for guests looking for a budget friendly place to relax on the water.
If you are super picky or expecting the Ritz then this place isn't for you. It is extremely minimal and very basic.
There is a full-size pull out platform with a futon style mattress.
It has been in a protective zippered waterproof cover since new and also has an extra zippered cover.
Linens provided and pillows provided that have zippered covers on them.
BATHROOM: Cabin style bathroom with a brand new Incinolet incinerator toilet. Itâs just like opening a regular toilet except it incinerates the waist and basically operates like a dryer. You are responsible for cleaning up after each bathroom use and resetting to toilet. Itâs extremely easy to operate, but if this is an issue for you, please do not book.
Guest also have access to the 24/7 bathrooms at the marina. Itâs very close. located on the same slip row!
Have you ever been camping??? You know how when you go camping and you need to use the bathroom, you walk to the bathhouse in the campground. This place is exactly like that. Think of it as a primitive floating camp site and you wonât be let down! If you are not OK with the bathroom situation then this place is simply not for you.
Please read through the entire listing and preview all of the pictures before booking. Itâs a great place to relax at the lake!
