About this property

Waterside Condo - Norris Lake - Andersonville, Tn

Waterside Marina is a full service marina to meet your boating needs and also includes a restaurant.

Waterside is a gated community located 7 miles from I-75 at Exit 122 off State Route 61E (which is a straight road great for pulling boats). This condo is about 20 minutes from downtown Knoxville, with abundant shopping and restaurants. Other attractions in East TN are The Great Smoky Mountains, Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Dollywood which are less than 1 hour away.

Enjoy fine boating, excellent fishing (including small mouth bass, crappie, white bass, rock bass, walleye, and a variety of other game-fish) beautiful scenery, and many other opportunities for R&R at this luxurious new lakefront condominium at Waterside Marina on Norris Lake.

The interior boasts ceramic-tile flooring, marble counter-tops, and is fully furnished. Outside is a sizable patio which commands an unobstructed western view of historic Norris Lake, perfect for relaxing sunsets and sunrises.

The lake itself is surrounded by 56,700 acres, two large game-management areas, three state parks, and three county parks - all dedicated to public recreation.

Waterside is a gated community with a perfect amenity package for people who relish lakeside living at its very finest; a pool, a clubhouse, walking trails and green space/recreation areas.

And of course, there’s the marina. Waterside Marina is a full-service, totally renovated, 400-boat slip marina, complete with a restaurant built over the lake and a ship store for all your boating needs. Boat slips have sewer and water, and can accommodate up to 90 foot houseboats.

Experience Norris Lake at Waterside for yourself, and you will see why so many people have fallen in love with the natural features, wildlife, and recreation East Tennessee has to offer.

Also located within 5 miles you'll find Big Ridge State Park. The heavily forested, 3,687-acre park lies on the southern shore of TVA's Norris Reservoir. Visitors to the park will find a wealth of activities to meet any interest from guided nature tours to backcountry camping. Other notable features of the park include: the Norton Gristmill built in 1825, remnants of Sharp's Station Fort construction in the late 1700's, and Indian Rock where a plaque commemorates the death of Peter Graves, a settler of Sharp's Station who was attacked by Indians at this spot. Also, the park has several notable structures built by the Civilian Conservation Corp.

Other great places to visit nearby include Museum of Appalachia, a living history museum of pioneer, frontier, and early artifacts of mountain life in the Southern Appalachians.

Also located within 5 miles, Norris Dam is a 4,038-acre park, located on the Norris Reservoir, began in 1933 as the first Tennessee Valley Authority project. Miles of trails lead hikers through deeply forested valleys and ridges. Many other attractions await your finding at Norris Dam State Park.

Several antique malls are within just a few miles of Waterside Marina.

Super Walmart located approx. 7 miles (just as you get off interstate) and near fast food restaurants, plus several upscale and some quaint hometown restaurants. You are at the lake in the country, but still not so far away that you can't visit some other places, but still be convenient to shopping, etc.

This place is perfect!! We had a very blessed trip. It's beautiful inside and outside. The bed was like sleeping on a cloud. The place was well stocked too. The lake views are incredible. We enjoyed the walking trail by the lake, and the workout room.

Cozy with great location

The cozy condo has everything you need to enjoy your stay. Beautiful view from the patio, short amazing drives to marina's, shopping and restaurants. The condo is a bit small but we were there to enjoy the outdoors so it was perfect for us to come back relax and recharge and get out to explore the area some more. Everyone is so nice, neighbors, host, local business employees. If you're looking for a touristy spot this is not the area but if you want quiet, beautiful scenery, amazing boating and time to relax this is the perfect location. As for the condo itself, kitchen is well equipped, there's laundry in the unit, nice bathroom and very comfortable queen size bed. No cell service with Verizon or T-Mobile in the unit but it had good wifi and cable tv.

Nice Comfortable Budget Friendly Condo @ Waterside Marina

The condo is the perfect size for a couple. Its a budget friendly unit that treats you to the same on site ammenities as the higher priced units. We stayed for 5 nights. We arrived Early and were told we could check in early which was great. The condo has everything you need for a comfortable stay. This is a ground floor unit so you have a patio rather than a balcony. We have stayed at Waterside condos before and its a great place to enjoy your time.

Beautiful Waterfront property

We enjoyed our morning’s coffee & tea on the porch outside area, with the sun blasting in our faces, the birds chirping happily and the squirrels were raiding the tree out front!! Watching the boats come and go from the marina, with all the great scenery it was amazing! The place was as stated just MUCH, MUCH, more beautiful . The condo was beautifully equipped inside, just perfect enough room for 2 ! We were very pleased and will be staying here again when we visit next time! Thanks, Debra

Amazing lakefront unit!

We absolutely loved our stay at Waterside, the lake front unit was delightful. Perfect for a couple or family with small child(ren) like ours. Communication with owner was flawless. Our experience contradicted previous reviews, we noticed water leak from unit above, but witnessed no visible mold, etc. We absolutely loved Waterside and this unit, we will be back!

Always perfect

2nd time staying here. Perfect place to unwind & recharge. Close to several parks with hiking trails. Close enough to small towns worth checking out, or Knoxville if that is what you want. Spent most of our time on the covered patio enjoying the peacefulness of the area. We took a space heater for this purpose, and we're comfortable out there even after the evenings got cool. We will be back, and in warm weather again.

Really excellent

Place was spotless when we got here, with a note assuring us that everything has been cleaned thoroughly with bleach. Debra was easy to contact and quick to respond to questions. The Bathroom/shower is very nice and matches the expectation for a luxury condo complex. Grounds are quiet, residents are friendly, and the pool/Hot tub were clean and well-maintained. highly recommend this place to those looking for a get away (especially during covid). Will stay here again On our next visit!

Explore The Beautiful Mountains

We did a lot in a week. The property was perfect. It was in the middle of all our events. We drove to Noah’s Ark in Williamstown,KY. Pall Mall TN to get a great history lesson on St. York. Then explore the great Smoky Mountains.Cades Cove is a must see. Gatlinburg was amazing. Your place was extremely nice to come back to every night. Quite and right on Norris Lake. One of our stops was just minutes away. Bible Baptist Church. Enjoyed both services. People are very welcoming. We are looking forward to our next trip in this area to bring family. Thanks for a wonderful week. Highly recommend Westside Maria to everyone.

A restful stay

Bed was comfortable, condo was clean. Dirty cup in cabinet but the owner would not have control of that. Shrubbery was overgrown so the view was limited. I did notice a company was trimming in other areas. Also, the stairs down to the condo amount to 16 stairs. Quite a few for my age! There isn’t any place to leave a boat I wouldn’t suggest taking one! The marina charges $40 per night but the clincher is you must have $300,000 insurance coverage. Anyway we used the pool several times and the location is near enough to Knoxville for food and shopping. Condo is well supplied with dishes, towels and such. Overall a good value.

Perfect for a couple, maybe with small kids

I have stayed in other 1BR units here before, so I knew what to expect. It's cozy, efficient, convenient, and in a beautiful location. Waterside has a great clubhouse, pool, convenient access to the nicest marina on Norris. Decor in this unit is classy, it has a washer dryer, full kitchen, two TVs, and nice outdoor area. This particular unit needs a little maintenance, however. The toilet handle was broken and taped, and flushing mechanism came detached. The tub/shower faucet doesn't work sometimes; we discovered we had to push it in and turn it, to get it to engage. The faucet needs to be replaced. And the tub didn't drain very well. We will share this with the owners, expecting that for future tenants, (say later this year and into 2020), these issues will be addressed. We love the Waterside marina and condos! If you plan to book there and bring a boat, check with the marina ahead of time to be sure they have slip space. They only have a few, and they sell out quickly!

Poor condition and health/safety concerns

The shape of the property really negatively impacted our trip. We’re not sure how often the owner frequented the condo and we let them know that we noticed there are several items that are in need of repair or not up to the quality we have become accustomed to while staying at Waterside previously. I’m not certain if prior tenets have mentioned these issues or if the owner has someone that checks on these items, but we have had to create workarounds to navigate daily activities Safety and health issues with Mold all over the bathroom including covering the ceiling which could cause difficulties for people sensitive to mold, which our family is. Plus, at least one smoke detector did. It have a battery installed. The condo claims to sleep 4, but the pull out couch is broken in several places and hardly a sufficient sleeping spot. We understand a fold out isn’t the most comfortable item to sleep on, but it seems close to final failure. The stove top and oven are not working properly. Not all of the top burners work consistently. The oven does not get to temperature or stay. The can opener does not open cans and is filthy. Lastly, the bathroom sink faucet and the bath faucet handles need to be tightened. They’re very loose and it makes it difficult to set the temperature to the appropriate setting.

About the host

Hosted by Debra Powers

Host profile image
We have been married 51 years and grew up in the area around Norris Lake. We always went to the lake for camping vacations when we were young so we know most of the great things the lake offers. We decided we were getting too old for sleeping on the ground in a tent and decided this was a much more comfortable way to "camp". Hot tub, swimming pool, nice comfortable queen size bed, etc.

Why they chose this property

We love the area, the lake and are very familiar with Norris Lake. We felt like it was a good value for the money.

What makes this property unique

Gorgeous view of the lake and marina from our unit. Sit on the covered patio and watch the water. Just enjoy the quiet at night with the shimmer of the moon on the water. Wonderful!
