About this property

Beautiful Waterfront Lakeside Retreat with Private Covered Dock & Great Ratings

Lake Front Retreat w/2 large decks & High speed internet.
Located only 15 minutes from I-75 and Jacksboro (Grocery stores, gas stations and restaurants) with beautiful views of Norris Lake and the surrounding mountains. Your Perfect lakefront vacation home has a private dock with 1 covered slip available. A short walk to the lake on a concrete path. The water is deep in this part of the lake which is great for fishing and swimming and with deep water the dock is accessible by boat 365 days a year. Best of all, the dock is all yours!

The Property offers 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and sleeps 18.
Our home makes for a great retreat for a larger family with kids, several couples, or even a small church group. You are just a short car or boat ride from Indian River Marina and Whitman Hollow Marina ( Froggies- a popular hangout & marina on Norris). Pontoon Boats and Ski boats are all available for rent through either of the marinas. If you're looking for an relaxing retreat or a spot for the perfect vacation getaway, this is your place!
Immediately be taken by the gorgeous views out of 5 sliding glass doors that open onto the 2 large partial covered decks. Your home-a-way from home is open concept, clean and cheery. Your family will enjoy making memories from the 54'x12' deck complete with new gas grill, dining and sitting areas. Inside all will have plenty of room in this open and airy kitchen, dining, and 2 living areas to enjoy classic games, movies and music together when your not out exploring the coves and wonders of Norris Lake.
Some of our favorite things about this property are the two large decks you can watch the sunrise over the mountains while looking at the lake with your morning coffee and sit by the fire in the evenings with your favorite beverage at the outdoor gas fire place. The downstairs den area is a perfect hangout for movie night (55” HD TV). The real showstoppers are the spectacular views, the amazing kitchen, and the large dock that makes for a great place to kick back and enjoy a cocktail. Later retire to comfortable new beds with soft linens. There are 2 King beds, 5 Queen beds and four twin beds (that are bunks over four of the Queen beds).

This is a NON SMOKING home. Minimum age 30 years to rent. We do have outdoor cameras that monitor the outside areas.

For the true fishing experience, people recommend Mel’s Striper Guide Service. Mel is a full time fishing guide with over 10 years experience guiding on Norris Lake. Mel maintains his personal 21 ft. Center Console boat equipped with the latest in fish finding technology. Morning trips up to 8 hours are based on fish catch & your preference.
Need a break from the lake for a day? A great idea for the most adventurous - there is Tubing or Rafting in the Smokies on the Pigeon River or Zip-lining through the Smokies. The upper section of the Pigeon River boasts 12 Class III and 3 Class IV thrilling whitewater rapids! Accompanied by a professional river guide, you’ll be escorted down 5 miles of lively rapids with equally engaging nicknames such as Too Late, Vegamatic, Razor Blade, After Shave, and Lost Guide. No Experience Necessary! Zip-lining includes over a mile of lines through the Great Smokies canopy!
Cumberland Gap National Historical Park, the gateway to the west is approximately 35 miles north with numerous hiking trails and scenic overlooks for you to enjoy as well as a museum.
We are 45 miles from Knoxville and only 75 miles from the popular Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg resort areas. You can hike the new Cumberland Trail or dine at the McCloud Mountain Restaurant with beautiful views of the Cumberland Mountains. There are also 2 world class ATV parks within a 30-60 min drive (Windrock and Ride Royal Blue). Close to the Chapman Hill Winery and Deerfield Golf Resort.

Stunning!

This house was my favorite house I have stayed in at Norris. Also one of my favorite areas on the lake as well! The house and the lake are BEAUTIFUL! The house had plenty of room plus more for family of 8 plus 1 under one. Has everything you need for large meals, and dinning space so you all can eat together. The outdoor furniture and fireplace really put this place over the top! The hill which the owner will talk to you about is no joke, but as long as you don’t mind burning off some of those vacation calories you’re fine! The owners are so nice and very responsive. Also this house was very easy and quick to get to once off 75, which was very beneficial when traveling with a baby!

Beautiful house and great hosts

The house is brand new and everything is in great shape. Beds are all very comfortable. The outdoor furniture on the porch and down at the dock is all sturdy and comfortable — conducive to spending lots of time relaxing outside. The back porch is covered and shaded in the evenings, so it’s perfect for dinners and relaxing outside. The owners are super organized and responsive, and left thoughtful touches like a welcome basket with snacks and a bottle of wine. Lovely leafy view of the lake. Great stay!

Annual family lake vacation

The kids, grandkids and us all had a great week and wonderful memories. The house is beautiful and the view from the upper deck is amazing. We used the gas fireplace frequently on cool nights and mornings. The kitchen is wonderful and fully equipped, they thought of everything. Ample bedrooms and bathrooms. Evyonne and Andy are very responsive and helpful when we had any concerns. The deep-water dock with kayaks and plenty of chairs was great to boat and swim off with the Grandkids. The path to the dock is very steep. As one of the previous guest stated it is a challenge for all ages.

The perfect lake house getaway!

Our family had an amazing vacation at this home! The house is equipped with literally EVERYTHING you may need. You can tell the home was built properly and corners were not cut in the process. Supplies provided by the homeowners were immaculate and the little details left for our stay did not go unnoticed. It truly couldn’t have been a better stay. Highly highly recommend this home and hosts! Thank you again!

Beautiful and relaxing!

We loved our week on Norris Lake! House has a great layout, very comfortable and had everything we needed. We took our two boats and loved the dock. We spent a lot of time on the water and on the huge porches. The hill to the house is very steep but we conquered it!!! Evyonne was very helpful and great to work with! Highly recommend!!!

Would definitely book again

We loved our stay at this house! It was new, in great condition and well maintained. The owners were very responsive and helpful. Furnishings were all of nice quality and more than met our needs. The back porches were perfect for lounging and relaxing. The kitchen and living room were open and bright with plenty of space for preparing meals and relaxing at the end of the day. The house layout worked well for multi family groups. The dock was in good condition, nice bumpers along the posts, furniture for hanging out and plenty of space for swimming. We wouldn’t hesitate to book here again.

Beautiful home

The home is brand new and stunning. The owners were excellent communicating. No surprises whatsoever. Check in was flawless, house was immaculate. Kitchen is huge and had everything you could possibly need. Like many homes on Norris fairly steep walk to dock. Path was paved but still a good workout walking up. I counted my steps to be around 120 or so. We brought our 21ft Sea Ray. Beautiful dock with nice sitting are and kayaks and paddle board were nice addition. This is on wider channel so wakes were happening. We launched from Whitman Hollow which is about 5 minutes by boat but about 30 minute drive. There is no community boat launch. The neighborhood is very nice with newer high end homes. Overall this place is amazing. Only thing to consider is the walk up from dock to house. It is a workout. But house is flawless and gorgeous so worth it. This part of lake is also nice. Sequoia marina about 30 minutes by boat and very nice one. Froggys food was really good and was nice to be so close to Whitman Hollow to gas up in the morning. We would definitely return.

Beautiful Home

Beautifully decorated home with gorgeous views of the lake. Our family really enjoyed our stay here. Kitchen was perfect with everything we needed to prepare meals for our large group. Nice size bedrooms with comfortable beds. We especially enjoyed the use of their 2 kayaks and paddle board, plus the kids had a blast on the water pad. The owners were very informative and pleasant to work with. Would love to rent from them again in the future.

Perfect

The home is beautiful and perfectly appointed in every way. You can tell the owner put a lot of thought into every detail that affects your stay. The location is great. I've stayed in numerous homes on Norris Lake. This home is by far the nicest. Also, the dock is great. The owner is responsive and considerate. I can't say enough good things about this home/owner.

Norris Lake Reunion

Top-notch property with all the amenities. If you are looking for a home for a large group this is the place. The home offers many different locations to have a little solitude as well as larger gathering spaces to comfortably hang out. The views from the back deck are amazing and peaceful. No detail has been left out and you will want for nothing. The pictures in the listing are very accurate. We also prepared most of our meals at the house and it is a gourmet kitchen with everything you will need. The hosts are very accommodating and the response time is almost immediate. We hope to return again soon to the Norris Lake area. What an introduction!!

Super cute and spacious getaway

We had our family vacation at Norris Lake this year and it was perfect. Marina is right around the corner which was super convenient. The homeowners welcomed us and reached out to help with any accommodations. House was fully stocked with plates and cookware and there were a few snacks which was so sweet. The beds were plenty and very comfortable. The trail to the dock is steep but we were made aware when booking. The dock was perfect for our family and lots of fun was had. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful stay

We had a wonderful stay. Evyonne and Andy thought of everything from from coffee pods, creamer, snacks, dish and laundry soap, vegetable oil, syrup, spices to sandwich bags. When we thought we forgot something, we just opened another drawer and it was there. Take your own life jackets for the kayaks… even Walmart didn’t have any to purchase. The walk down to the boat dock is very very steep and about 7 feet of large rough rocks to cross over at the end to get to the dock. Overall an excellent stay. Hope to plan another trip soon.

Labor Day Vacation

We enjoyed our stay at this lake house! The home is absolutely beautiful! Decorated like it is right out of a magazine. The house was so clean and the accommodations were incredible. Both outdoor decks were great places to gather. The top deck had a large table to accommodate the whole family. The fireplace with outdoor seating was so nice. The lower deck offered the ring game and corn home which gave us lots of opportunity for competitions! The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. The large table was perfect for eating meals and playing games. The view of the lake from the house was lovely. The bedrooms were large and the bathrooms were so nice. The layout of the house was perfect and spacious. We are looking forward to renting this amazing house again next year!

Great house! Great dock! Great vacation!

This is house is a great place for a family vacation! Everything, including the house, is high-end and brand new. There are even two sets of washer and dryer, which was very convenient for our group. The large deck provides covered eating and living areas where we spent most of our time, and the fans made it very pleasant even in the July heat. The dock is fantastic. You can fish right off the side and pull in bream, sunfish, and bass. One word of caution: the walkway from the house to the dock is very steep and may not be passable to the elderly or physically disabled.
