Find serenity on Norris Lake's calm waters while enjoying live music from the marina’s entertainment schedule or relax on your private dock. Don't forget you need a boat, whether you bring or rent one of the many boats available at Straight Creek Marina. Regardless parking at the marina is free. Please note the Gypsy is equipped with a paddle boards and two kayaks for your use. The space A few notables: The Gypsy is suitable for a maximum of four people. No exceptions. If you are bringing children they should be a minimum of 10 years old. You must remember that this is a floating house, in the water. There is not a fence between the house and the water. Children have a fantastic time here, but we highly encourage and recommend children wear a life vest at all times. The Gypsy is not a place for groups to party. It is a quiet retreat, perfect for a couples, girls trip or is perfect for fisherman, but not a fit for larger groups. If you plan to have more people at The Gypsy during the day than you registered with, you must let us know. The number of people affects toilet pump outs and we may need to charge a fee. So unless we hear from you, if you book 4 people we assume you will only have 4 people hanging out. Need to Know: - The water is city water safe for drinking. - We will start you off with some paper towels and ziplocs, but you may need to bring more. - We will provide the toilet paper for our marine toilet. - Absolutely no pets.
