Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2004
My wife and I lived in Knoxville, TN for 10 years and loved spending time at Norris Lake. We now live in Northern KY so that we can be closer to our families.
Why the Owner Chose Jacksboro
Even though we moved, we wanted to continue to enjoy boating and skiing with our children and friends, so we bought this cottage to enjoy and share with others. Our property is close to our friends and it is in a wonderful area of Norris Lake.
The Unique Benefits of this Cottage
Our property has a covered dock and an on-site boat ramp (which is quite rare at Norris). We are near the end of a cove, so there is no boat traffic in front of the dock and it is very safe for swimming, even for smaller children. The lot is not steep and the house is close to the water, so it is easy to walk between the house and dock. Our property is very peaceful and relaxing - it's a great family get-away!

From the Owners (Mike and Annette): We lived in Knoxville, TN for 10 years and enjoyed boating on Norris Lake every chance that we could. After moving to the Cincinnati OH area, we would travel back to Norris Lake to visit friends and go boating. We found that we missed the lake so much, that we eventually bought this cottage so that we could continue to enjoy boating on Norris with our friends and children. Norris is a beautiful and clean lake! It is great for water sports and relaxing. We hope that you and your family enjoy Norris and our cottage as much as we do! We welcome your comments and suggestions. Please share your experiences in our guestbook so that others can enjoy them too!
