About this property

Deerfield Lakefront Home. Most expansive unobstructed view on all of Norris Lake

The STEWART NORRIS LAKEFRONT HOME is located in Deerfield Resort near the point where Cedar Creek meets Norris Lake. Our sunset lake view is one of the widest and most panoramic on all of Norris Lake. Our home is a stunning, cedar and glass, 5800 sq. ft., on a full acre. It comes with a new private boat dock, wrap around decks and a new beautiful large separated covered deck. The home is a beautifully furnished vacation rental home decorated with original art throughout. Our amazing view can been seen through the wide array of large windows in our main room. The windows are thermal energy efficient double pane that resists sun and heat while still giving the wonderful view. All the other rooms on all three floors are lake facing. We are adding major upgrades for our 2025 rental season. This includes a new dock and cement steps with outer channels for the dock ramp wheels to keep the ramp always secularly positioned. Adding to this are two cabeled dead men to completely hold the covered dock with slip in place. This state of the art solution gives us the most dock stability available.
Our new large covered deck with an outdoor ceiling for summer breeze and, electrical outlets connects with the stairs halfway down to the dock. It is high enough up to also give spectacular views. Since building our home in 1992, we have continued to add many renovations. As an example, all the bathrooms were totally redone in the last few years. Our home has two large complete kitchens, two dining rooms, two comfortable living rooms each with their own large screen TVs. The lower living area has a regulation pool table, which guests really enjoy. The privacy of having two separate living rooms allows more choices for our vacationers. The lower level also has a covered deck accessible from all rooms. Since we are on the west side of Deerfield, we have access to a local provider’s internet tower. The speed is better than our Comcast business account in Knoxville.

Deerfield Resort is a gated community with a wonderful golf course, tennis, pickleball, swimming pool and other amenities. 900 acres of beautiful walking to enjoy spectacular views. Just outside the main gate is a comfortable winery (voted Tennessee’s best boutique winery in 2024). There is really something for everyone. Our master bedroom on the main floor has a very comfortable king bed. The connected master bathroom has a jacuzzi tub with lake view and, a separate walk in shower. There are 4 queen bedrooms with new mattresses. Two are on the top floor, and two on the bottom floor. One on the top has an attached bathroom, the other bathroom is off the hall. The two on the bottom floor share a double room bathroom at the end of the hall. There is a full sized open bedroom on the balcony over the living room which has two twin futons and a privacy curtain. It comes with a full closet, night stand, dresser ,etc. We chose to have this room open for its view of the main room and lake. There is another twin futon located in an open alcove down the hall on the top floor. There are also two adult accommodating European style futons in the lower main room. In all we have four full baths and two half bathrooms.
The STEWART HOME is perfect for families and friends in so many ways. We built this custom home in 1992 and thought of every possible feature for our vacationer’s comfort and enjoyment. It has served our family and friends many wonderful experiences throughout the years. There are two stories of wraparound Lakeview decks, nicely furnished with durable deck furniture and, gas barbecue connected to two one hundred pound propane tanks. We fell in love with the location on first view, and feel very lucky every time we show up to experience it again. We have many guest books in the main living room, filled by folks who have taken the time over the last thirty years to share their written delight about our home and view.

Great lake vacation

We LOVED staying at this house! Every dawn and dusk we enjoyed sitting outside on the deck enjoying the incredible view. The house was spacious and well equipped. It definitely met all of our needs. There are a lot of steps to the dock and some of them steep. The dock is on the main channel in the lake and docking the boat with wakes and current could be a challenge.

Wonderful Lakehouse Stay!

We are usually a beach vacation family, but this lake vacation exceeded our expectations! Greg and Kenlyn were very gracious VRBO hosts, the home was very spacious for our two families, and the location was wonderful. We rented a pontoon and jet skis from the nearby marina which the young and older adults loved and the lake was just absolutely beautiful. The sunsets from the home were breathtaking. Everyone agreed we will be back.

Great home for extended family

We had 15 of us, and this home is so spacious, and accommodating for large groups, that we were comfortable all week. It was very clean, and had everything we needed including 2 kitchens, 2 coffee maker and a Keurig - plenty of other appliances, plates, etc. If you are looking for a large place this is it - Oh yes, and the view is spectacular.

Annual Family Vacay

Going to different places each summer with our blended family of 13 led us to this property for the summer of 2023. My brother's family also came, so there were 17 of us in all. The house was very spacious and accommodated us very well with the children being able to have futons to sleep on. The two kitchens were a big bonus. We enjoyed the lake with the beautiful view, the park, and the pickle ball courts where we learned that my husband and I enjoy pickle ball and plan to become a force to be reckoned with when we play back home in Ohio:)

Beautiful home w terrific lake view

This house has beautiful views of Norris lake looking West towards Shanghai Marina. With 2 balconies, there plenty of space for kids and adults to enjoy. The home is in a beautiful neighborhood (Deerfield Resort) which is very well maintained. If you’re pulling a boat, be aware of hilly and narrow roads. The driveway is a little steep but has room for 4 vehicles. If you plan on docking your boat at the house, recommend bringing extra fenders and lines as busy weekend boat traffic will rock the boat significantly. The house is very well equipped - we had a great time! Thanks!!

Thanksgiving vacation ‘22

We stayed in the lake house with a couple families for a 3 day holiday weekend. When we first arrived we discovered a water leak and we’re able to get in touch with the host. It was late at night and we were able to avoid the immediate area of the leak and the host sent a person to repair the property the next morning. Other than that the property was very accommodating for the 13 people who stayed there with us. The view is amazing, the place was very big and easy to spend time with the family or get some alone time if needed. The beds were great the 2 kitchens were fantastic since we cooked Thanksgiving dinner there. Plenty of bathrooms for a large gathering. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful views

The house is very nice and spacious. Plenty of room to spread out for our large group (10 adults, 4 children and 1 infant). Well stocked upper kitchen. The view from every bedroom and all decks is spectacular! However, basement area had a strange odor and little centipedes. We also found small ants in upper kitchen. Dock is fairly rocky from all boat activity on lake. We still swam off it, but some in our group did get “seasick”. Less rocky in morning and evening. Overall, would recommend but feel the basement odor and bug issues should be addressed especially for how expensive a week’s stay is.

ANNUAL AUGUST NORRIS VACA

Greg was awesome to deal with. Very helpful with any questions that we had before getting to the property. The house was beautiful, and we had plenty of room for all 12 of us. The bottom floor (apartment) was great for the younger adults as they had their own hang out area and kitchen. The only negative, which Greg did tell us about, but we didn't heed his warning...since the property is located on the tip of the peninsula and is in a great location with several marinas and the jumping bridge very close, the boat traffic is INSANE which means the dock is constantly moving A LOT. We had a boat and 2 jet skis with us, and at some points in time, the boat was rocking so hard that we thought it was coming out of the water (no exaggeration there) and the jet skis took on a bit of damage even though we brought the dock protection/pads for them. The other boaters in the lake run their boats extremely close to the dock with no regards of the large wake they cause. But again, Greg told us about that, and we just didn't realize how rough it would be. But we all had an awesome time and stayed on the dock all day, you just learned to roll with it's motion. I would recommend to any family needing an awesome house and host.

Beautiful View

My family of 13 members (including 4 small grandchildren) spent a week down at Norris Lake. The views from the front windows and the deck were, indeed, absolutely gorgeous. It was wonderful to be able to see in 3 different directions...the sunsets were amazing! The house was large - there was plenty of room for all of us. The living area was exceptionally spacious and the dining area, with the proximity of the bar, was big enough for all of us to sit down to a meal together. Our main, and rather big, concern was the cleanliness of the home. The kitchen drawers were quite dirty with crumbs....enough so that we washed every utensil before using it. The outside of the house had ashtrays that were overflowing and several beer cans in the grass. Even though the owners stated that no pets are allowed, we found a small "pile" behind the TV. At the end of the week, we emailed the owners with our concerns and they immediately responded saying only that they were sorry that we hadn't contacted them or the cleaning service (for which they had, in fact, given us a phone number, in the directions that they sent us prior to our arrival) earlier in the week. We had not wanted to complain, but as the week progressed we found more problems. I realize that the owners are not on site to monitor the cleanliness of the house. They told us that they had forwarded my email to the cleaning service and assured us that the matters I mentioned would be taken care of. All in all, we had a wonderful week. However, their email left me feeling like it was my fault because we didn't contact them earlier. Four times in their email they said......"but as I have said, I'm sorry that you didn't email or call us about the issue." So, my guess is that these issues will be resolved for future tenents.....and oh, by the way, the Wi-Fi did not work the entire week. FIVE STARS FOR: spaciousness, views from the deck, 2 large refrigerators ONE STAR FOR: cleanliness, no Wi-Fi, sheets that need to be replaced

The house and property were fantastic, and we all like theDeerfield location very much. However, the lake was at its summertime high, and the dock/ ramp moved way to much to utilize as much as we wanted. The dock moved, with the water, and broke the gas cap off rented jet ski. Other than that we had a terrific vacation.

About the host

Hosted by Greg & Kenlyn Stewart

Host profile image
This family built home has been passed down to, daughter, Kenlyn and her husband Greg. They moved to Knoxville many years ago because of the natural beauty of the area. Being artists who made our living selling nationally, we could have lived anywhere. Nowhere else was ever tempting enough to take us away. We still live in South Knoxville in a cabin built by mountain folks in 1931.

To add to the wonder of our area, we thought about building a small home on a lake. Kenlyn spent almost a year exploring all of East Tennessee. She found Norris Lake, the cleanest lake in Tennessee, to be the spot that kept drawing her back. She found Deerfield Resort to be sweetest location on all of this amazing lake. We spent many days looking through Deerfield for our dream location. At the end of every search day, we always came back to one particular place. It was a large foundation that offered the most stunning, breathtaking lake vista and sunset we had ever experienced. When we found that the owner couldn't continue to build, the whole family jumped in and bought this dream setting. With such a large foundation we had to build big. Our 5800 square foot home was built in 1996. We knew it was the perfect vacation getaway, so we joined Vrbo when it was in its infancy. We are still with them.
The home has gone through many upgrades throughout the years. We have had generations of folks continue to come back. All the heartfelt reviews on this site make us very pleased that our efforts are appreciated. Kenlyn and Greg Stewart

Why they chose this property

We chose to build this large home because of family in Tennessee, North Carolina, etc. We enjoy the home ourselves with family during the off season. We originally planned to build or purchase a little cabin but finding this amazing spot changed our minds. It is a decision we have never regretted for an instant

What makes this property unique

Our family enjoys the home tremendously with the many activities Deerfield and the surrounding areas offer. There is a pool, tennis/pickleball courts, marina with restaurant, and a great very well maintained resort golf course. Fishing off our dock is a great way to spend your time. There is a great spot, much visited by locals, off the left side of the dock. Our view is what brought us to build on this location. It is magnificent. Unrivaled on the whole of Norris Lake. For day trips, we are just over an hour from Knoxville, and a bit more travel from Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and the Smoky Mountains. Most folks, however, just prefer to stay at our home and enjoy what the amazing lake offers, and finding their own nooks in our large comfortable house, and many decks.
