About this property

'Happyhour', Norris Lake, Cov Dock w/slide, by Deerfield, Lg Fire Pit, sleeps 30

Happy Hour is a lake front home designed around the celebration of family and friends. It is ideal for reunions, gatherings, and the entertainment of both large and intimate groups. Happy Hour accommodates up to 30 guests in beds and is equipped with ample table seating. Located on an acre lot with more than 200 feet of private water frontage & built right on the 1044 (the lowest and closest to the lake that the Tennessee Valley Water Authority will allow).

This 8 bedroom home offers 2 full Living levels complete with a full kitchen, living room, dining area, as well as a private deck with a full outdoor furniture set and grill on each level. A 3rd walkout lower level is equipped with a play area, foosball and TV, and two bedrooms designed as kid friendly bunk rooms, along with one full bath. This 3rd level is very private and is sure to accommodate the more active evening activities, while providing tranquility to the upper two floors. The 3rd level walks out to a private deck which extends to a secluded hot tub deck equipped with a new hot tub overlooking the water. Beyond the hot tub deck is a walking path and fire pit area on the water’s edge.

The Covered boat dock is oversized, constructed with Trex decking and is equipped with two personal watercraft drive up docks, a water slide, and a large sunning deck with a Tiki Bar and is ideal for playing at the water or just hanging out. The Main level of the house is located on the street level with no steps to the water. This is ideal for those wanting to avoid steps while still enjoying the breathtaking views of the water from this level.

An 18 x 32 foot fire pit and camping area has just been added on the water’s edge. It is elevated and overlooks the water & is perfect for evening gatherings or early Spring and Fall activities. Like the rest of Happy Hour, it was designed with the group gathering/family in mind. Sharing stories with your friend/relatives around the fire or just roasting marshmallows with your grandchildren is a special experience you will remember for a lifetime. Two tent areas beyond the main gathering area are ideal for the kids to have a campout close to the house during your vacation.

The main level kitchen is enhanced with granite counter tops and custom Tennessee built cabinets. The majority of the main level has authentic hardwood flooring, 17 foot tall cathedral ceilings, a 50” LCD TV, two dining areas, a beautiful owners suite equipped with a king bed and a desk for catching up on work activities. The owner’s bath is top of the line with a Jacuzzi type tub and tile flooring. The 2nd bedroom on the main level has a king bed and adjoins a full bath via a private entrance. This 2nd bath is also open to the great room and is a common bath. The 3rd bedroom offers two full beds and a great view. The Main level deck extends the length/width of the home as do the other 2 levels of deck, and offers a sunning area with lounge chairs at one end and a table and chair area, with a large stainless steel grill, at the other.

The middle level has an open floor plan complete with a large family room, with a spectacular view, and a 50 inch TV, as well as a 2nd full kitchen, dining area, 3 bedrooms, full bath and a laundry room. The 4th bedroom is located on the lakeside and has a king bed and TV. The 5th bedroom offers a king bed. The 6th bedroom is set up ideally for the young family with a queen bed and a set of twin over twin bunks with a trundle pull out bed. There is plenty of room for a Pack N Play (as Happy Hour has two of them upon request.)

The lower walkout level, as mentioned above, is complete with a recreation/game room and two bedrooms. The large room has two full over full bunk bed sets, and the 8th bedroom has two twin over twin bunk sets.

Happy Hour has plenty of parking and, can accommodate up to 8 cars outside of the home, and many more in the development's auxiliary parking area. Happy Hour is conveniently located in the Lakeside Estates gated community just a few miles from I-75 and minutes from the city of La Follette. From the lake, you couldn't ask for a better location. The very popular Deerfield Resort is located just south of Lakeside Estates and around the corner from Sugar Hollow Marina, Shanghai Marina, and Springs Resort. You can enjoy these full service marinas and restaurants within a few minutes boat ride, yet be very secluded at your vacation home.

**Please note that between mid November and the first of March the water levels at Norris Lake are normally down. This can limit access to the dock depending on the water level.

We had a fantastic stay here with a large group, bringing along two boats and a jet ski, and the property accommodated us perfectly. The house is very spacious, offering plenty of indoor and outdoor areas for everyone to relax, hang out, and enjoy time together.The dock was one of our favorite spots—it’s ideal for spending the day when you’re not out on the water. The location is also a big plus, with easy access to several marinas just minutes away. The community dock and trailer parking made everything incredibly convenient for our group.The owners were wonderful to work with—very accommodating, responsive, and helpful. They also provided great tips and recommendations for the area, including restaurants, which made our stay even more enjoyable.Overall, this property is perfect for large groups, especially those looking to enjoy time on the water. We would definitely stay here again!

My extended family, ranging in age from 1 to 89, stayed at Happy Hour the week after the 4th of July, our first lake vacation after years of renting beach houses, and it did not disappoint.Norris Lake is stunning and the water was perfect. Rent a boat and spend your days exploring the marinas and swimming spots. Most places don’t open until noon and close by 9 except on certain days, and there isn’t much to do in town, which makes this the perfect spot for a family or group of friends looking to relax in nature, play games, boat, swim, and fish.Happy Hour sits in a no wake zone, a short ride from the jumping bridge, Sugar Hollow Marina (wonderful drinks, a parrot named Sugar Daddy, and the best spot for boat gas and ice), and Shanghai Marina (free spray park for the kids).The dock is one level with a slide, a covered boat port, and plenty of space to hang towels. Bring rafts or noodles for lounging, and don’t miss the rope swing, just a short swim away.The house itself is fantastic, with two kitchens and three separate living areas, so everyone had their own space to spread out and relax, including a wonderful middle floor kitchen and living area. Mornings were made for coffee on the deck, evenings were made for chats by the fire pit, and the hot tub was put to very good use the whole week.

I am sure you can find a better place than this. Just don’t pick this one until you search other 8 bedroom, 4 bath homes first and their amenities. And pictures from 10 years ago look great too! Your starter paper towels and toilet paper for 25-30 people-very small, cheap and one roll in each bathroom. Really. Clocks needing batteries and under microwave lights so you see when you cook. The cleaning team that comes in between rentals can’t possibly have time to check all that. Heck they leave your clean sheets folded on your bed for YOU to put on. And all your cookware, bakeware, etc. all unorganized under the counter so you have to dig through to find what you might be able to use. No empty cabinets to keep your food in for the week. It also said the home came with an ice machine which I knew my sons would like. Guess what? It was taken out last year but write up never got changed. I think the prices for rentals have really gone way too high plus you pay all those extra fees like Stay Tax (what’s that?), service fee at almost 1000 and a cleaning fee. You don’t want to complain but c’mon people think about it!

Response from VrboOwner on 13 Jul 2026
I'm sorry to hear you felt this way. You and I had communicated numerous time before and during your stay. I had taken the time to call you and answer all questions prior to your arrival. None of these were questioned with the exception of the ice maker. Let me address some of your issues ~ **The house photos are not 10 years old. We actually got all the furniture and artwork replaced last summer and everything from that was updated on the website. ** Starter packs- Yes, like most houses, we provide a starter pack of paper towels and 2 rolls of toilet paper in each bathroom. You received a VERY DETAILED email from me explaining that, as well as I gave suggestions on what all you should bring for the week (TP, paper towels, paper plates, shampoo, beach towels, etc) It was very laid out. **I apologize if some of the lights under the microwave were out. Our cleaning ladies do the best they can to check all of that stuff each week. You never alerted us they were out or she would've gladly come to the house and replaced them. ** You are correct in that most of our cabinet space is filled with cooking stuff, plates, bowls, silverware etc. We usually just put all of our snacks and such on the counters. We've never received a complaint about that. **Sheets - Most houses down there leave folded sheets on the end of the bed. And it was stated in bold letters in the email that you received that you would have to make the beds yourself upon arrival. We do that for two reasons: So renters know the sheets are clean and for time purposes. We have to flip the large house in 5 hours and having to make 17 beds would take two hours of that time. ** I apologized to you about the ice maker when you reached out to me about it and gave you suggestions as to what marina to grab ice from. (and we have two fridges that contain ice as well) I'm sorry about this inconvenience. ** Lastly, yes we charge a cleaning fee. And the TN state taxes and VRBO fees are out of our control. VRBO controls those VRBO fees ~ we as homeowners have nothing to do with that. I hope you and your family were still able to enjoy the week and time together and made some wonderful memories! Have a great rest of your summer!

Richard, Thank you for your feedback on your stay at Happy Hour. Thank you for calling me on the slow drain in the Hall bath. Pate's Plumbing said that someone had flushed a few paper towels down and it was slowing the drain. I am happy we got that taken care of for you and appreciate the call. Thank you for leaving the house in such good shape. We look forward to having you come back and stay at Happy Hour in the future. We will have the fire pit read to go for you guys. Andrew & Dawn

A great vacation home!

I cannot express in words how much fun our families (6 families ages 5-70) had at this home. The cove is great for swimming and floating. Such relaxation! We boated and rode a jet ski all week. Some went golfing nearby, but we mostly left only to go to the grocery store or to golf. We enjoyed just spending time with each other, playing games, watching movies, cooking, etc. One of the best vacations I have ever had and the lake is so beautiful and clean. I highly recommend.

Great golf weekend!!

This property was fantastic for our annual spring golf trip. The only thing nicer than the house was dealing with the owners. They immediately answered any question I had and were more than accommodating to us!! We had 16 bigger than average guys and all slept great, played golf all weekend at one of the local courses, watched NCAA basketball, and never felt crowded. The house definitely made you feel relaxed and takes you away from the hustle of everyday life. I would 110% recommend this property, especially with the no hassle use of the property and friendliness of the owners. It would be a great place for a large family getaway

Perfect family vacation!

Just returned home from a perfect family vacation! The accommodations at Happy Hour far exceeded our expectations! The house was beautiful - clean, comfortable and well appointed to meet the needs of 13 adults and 9 children ages 9- 1 year of age. The location was perfect - the quietness of the cove was great for the children to swim and fish and for the adults to enjoy a drink or two each evening at the tiki bar under the stars. We will be back - all agreed about wanting this to become our regular family vacation! Our 7 year old grandson cried for fifteen minutes on the way home wanting to go back! Many thanks - have already posted this to others as a great place to visit!

About the host

Hosted by Dawn

Host profile image
Our family lives on a lake in Ohio and have enjoyed waterfront living for many years. Due to our experience with lake living for several years we custom built Happy Hour to reflect the needs of our family and others like it when we vacation at Norris. Over the past few years we have made many improvements to complete our wish list.

Why they chose this property

As a real estate professional, I specialize in waterfront homes for sale & rent. With the knowledge and experience of 20 years of being involved in waterfront homes we designed and built Happy Hour with all the wish list items a renter would want.

What makes this property unique

Most of the reservations we have at Happy Hour are repeat visitors year after year. We hear over and over how they love the floor plan and how it accommodates their large groups. They love the 2 full kitchens, the oversized fire pit and oversized covered dock. The waterslide is always a favorite for the children and the adults love the Tiki bar. The home/dock is located on a safe and peaceful area on the lake. The little ones can swim right off the dock with very few waves and little boat traffic to worry about. Being just a minute from Norris Lake's most popular water hang out spot, 'the jumping bridge', is always a crowd favorite. Sugar Hollow Dock is just right around the corner. It is a big attraction as it has some of the best food on the lake and the night life is second to none with the oversized outdoor bar and famous Karaoke night and theme weekends.
