I have stayed in quite a few rental properties and the attention to detail and the amenities provided in this house were the best I've experienced. The owners were very communicative, lived locally and were very attentive to any request we had during our stay. I highly recommend others to stay at this property.
Awesome property. Great location, kitchen has everything you would ever need. Everyone had such a great time! We will be back. Owner was very responsive. House was beautiful
House was perfect for our family lake trip. Very clean and well stocked. Proximity to jump rock, cave and marinas was a definite plus. Owner is very responsive to any questions we had but those were few - mainly the boat launch location.
Only issue we had (and not any issue w/ the property itself) was navigating those narrow roads to and from the the boat launch with a large pontoon boat/trailer. Not for the inexperienced. Though we are adept at this it was still a bit dicey at times.
Would definitely stay again.
This was by far the cleanest and nicest lakefront property we've ever stayed at. We enjoyed our time and working with the property manager was a great experience. We will be back!
AMAZING PLACE EASY TO FIND. HOUSE FULLY FURNISHED YOU DONT NEED TO BRING A THING. KIDS AND ADULTS HAD A BLAST LOTS OF LAUGHS GREAT PLACE TO MAKE MEMORIES. OWNERS AWESOME PEOPLE ENJOYABLE TO TALK WITH GREAT PLACE WILL BE BACK!
We rented this home over Memorial Day week and had an amazing time. Everything you need is provided, and the mule makes getting to and from the water a breeze. Marie is a dream host. She's super easy to communicate with and goes above and beyond your typical VRBO host. We will definitely be back.
What a great time at Whatta View! House beautiful! Kitchen is fully stocked! Decor is amazing. So glad we got to enjoy Christmas decor as well! Great trip, already talking about visiting again!
The property was great, everything was as described. The property owner was very responsive to our questions. Our family does a lakehouse rental every summer and we all agreed this one was one of the best. The UTV was great for getting supplies and people to the lake. If you are towing a boat the boat ramp is super close. Parking is ample. We will definitely be visiting again! Thank you for sharing your home.
This home has EVERYTHING you could need in a rental house. There was every kitchen and bath supply, including napkins, paper towels, dishwashing liquid, and plenty of linens. The only thing we needed to bring were lake towels. The side by side was great for transporting coolers to and from the dock. We would definitely stay again.
We were able to create so many wonderful family memories on our vacation at Norris Lake (July 2023).
“Whatta View” was the perfect place to start - Beautiful home, peaceful lake views, and certainly
ALL/EVERYTHING you will need to enjoy and relax during your stay.
Marie was a great host for checking-in and responding quickly to any of our questions or needs.
Also, PLENTY of supplies -- in the Kitchen, adult & children’s games, water toys, boat dock, and more, so you never had to worry about “forgetting something”. Planning our next family vacation already.
We can not say enough about our first visit to Norris Lake and staying at Whatta View Lakehouse. It was a beautiful house with everything we needed. Kitchen was well stocked with plenty of dishes, pans, utensils, and anything and everything you can imagine. The griddle grill made for a great barbecue for breakfast and dinner! The side by side Gator cart made it super easy to get the older folks down to the boat dock! the owner was fantastic and responded right away! We will definitely be back! Highly recommend this place!
Our family loved the house, our teenage boys each brought friends, we cooked dinner and breakfast each day so the black stone, 2 fridges and large enough kitchen with pantry were key. Downstairs area with pool table and hot tub became the kids main domain! The ATV to take coolers and supplies up and down the hill to the jet skis and boat was awesome. We used the paddle boats and kayaks every day. They are close to a marina great for getting gas and to jumping rock. The views are STUNNING! The beds are a bit firm, but all the bedding is nice and the house is Stocked with paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, plastic cutlery and napkins, laundry soap, dish soap, hand soap and toiletries baskets. The owners manage the property with care. Great rental!
The house and property are amazing and everything you might want is provided. We decided to vacate the property a day ahead of schedule to give us enough time to try to remove all dog hair from my disabled veteran nephew’s service animal due to the owners severe allergies. Even though VRBO properties must allow service animals to comply with federal and state laws, the owners objected to our service animal in a way that put a damper on our enjoyment of our vacation. As a result, we decided to leave a day early and rent a hotel for our final day.
Marie was amazing to rent from. She went above and beyond to make sure our stay was nothing less than perfect. She even brought us lanterns when we lost power for 6 hours. The house and property were exactly as described. The house was clean and beautiful. There were enough supplies, garbage bags, toilet paper and paper towels to last the whole week. Most places hust have enough for a couple days. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of pots, pans and dishes. The boat dock was nice having room for 2 boats which with a group of 13 you need 2 boats. They had a peddle boat, 2 kayaks, and 2 paddle boards. The house had pool table and board games. There's also a hot tub, ping pong table and corn hole boards, which came in handy because we had one day it rained all day. I would recommend this house for anyone. The side by side made the short trip to the dock easy for all ages. The Hitchcock and Eickhoff family's will return forsure.
My husband and I, our 6-year-old son, parents and sister and brother-in-law enjoyed a weeklong stay at Whatta View. So many positives about this house it's hard to know where to start. So, we'll go with the obvious...the VIEW! Something we loved about the view, was that you are looking across the lake to undeveloped land. So, you aren't facing other houses. Just beautiful Norris Lake.
The house is three levels with a great layout. Two bedrooms upstairs share a jack and jill bathroom. The main floor has a master with the attached hall bath. The basement level also has two bedrooms that share a bathroom. Roomy is an understatement. You can spread out in this house and still have plenty of space. Huge big screen TV in the main room with plenty of seating for all. So many cute touches in the décor that celebrates the lake life.
We certainly enjoyed all the amenities. The pool table got a lot of use, as well as ping-pong, the cute custom Norris Lake corn hole boards and the HOT TUB! It was so nice when temperatures dropped to get in and warm up and enjoy the lake view. The fire pit, down near the water, was a special treat to roast marshmallows. There are plenty of seats and even a table. And firewood and skewers were provided. The dock has two picnic tables and 4 chairs for your comfort. We fished off the dock each day. Kayaks and a paddle boat were also such a treat to have provided. The waters were so clear and clean, which was lovely. It is a steeper trek down to the dock but completely doable. Marie the owner gives plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, laundry soap, softener, etc. The kitchen literally is stocked with any type of cookware you would need. With plenty of plates, utensils, silverware, etc.
We would definitely love to stay again and look forward to that time. Norris Lake is a beautiful area. We also were close enough (50 min) to go to Knoxville and enjoy the zoo one day and dinner. We rented a pontoon from the local marina to enjoy the lake as well. The only thing we would love to see next time, would be faster internet speeds. All in all, this is one not to be missed if looking for a house that literally provides all the amenities and Whatta View!
Such a great location and view!! The house is great, supplied with everything you will need, and owners are great to work with. Book, you will not be disappointed!
Super clean , very updated and kitchen was fully stocked with everything you would ever need to cook with. Definitely would stay again.

About the host
Hosted by N. Marie Ayers
I am a local Realtor but am a native to this area. My husband and I live only 3 miles from the rental homes we have on Norris Lake. Our hobby is working. So when I am not selling real estate and he is not doing HVAC we like to work on houses and make them new again. That's the story here. We own the house next door and bought this home and was going to paint and fix and rent it........................8+ months later its been a total renovation but it turned out great. Come reap the benefits of what we love to do. See ya on Norris Lake.
Why they chose this property
This home features one of the best open water views on Norris Lake and yet one of the most gentle slopes to the lake. We have lots of outdoor space for guests to gather. A nice 1,800 sq ft aluminum dock with total bumpers around the slips and additional bumpers on the poles. We do get some wake but we enjoy riding the waves on tubes/floats and don't forget 'Whatta View'.....that's what we like the most. Our neighborhood is home to one of the nicest public boat launches in the county and it is 2 miles away to make your stay even better. All of our neighbors are great and its a good mix of vacation rentals and owner occupied homes. It's not the 'party place' but it is the come relax and enjoy Norris Lake community. We're happy to be a part of it.
What makes this property unique
Whatta View.............gentle walk to the water, 4 seater side by side for coming/going to water at no additional cost, oversized (legally permitted) dock, 2 person arcade game, pool table, ping pong, corn hole, hot tub, 2 paddle boards, 2 kayaks, 1 pedal boat (as long as it lasts), fire pit with roasting sticks/wood/kindling, everything you need inside. Why wouldn't you book it?
