About this property

Norris Lake Cabin with Double Decker Dock on Private Cove

Feel like you are in a 'tree house'...yet have a private double deck dock in a private cove! Whether you are a house-boater, skier, fisherman, sightseer, sunbather, or water sports lover, Norris Lake has it all. Norris Lake was created by the construction of the Norris Dam in 1936. This hydroelectric project was the Tennessee Valley Authority’s first. The lake’s beautiful blue-green waters span more than 800 miles of shoreline covering 34,000 acres. Norris’ boundaries extend up the Clinch and Powell rivers which feed Norris with clear, pristine waters. It’s an ideal environment for sportsmen and vacationers alike.

STAIRS ALERT: Please be aware that there are 250 +/- steps from the cabin to the dock (and back up again!!). Well worth the effort to get there and back, but we like to be sure our customers know this before committing to the rental.

This home is situated in a beautiful cove on Lake Norris. It has 2 bedrooms and the basement is a bunk area/game room. The upstairs has a king size bed in one of the rooms and the other room has a queen size bed, one full bathroom with shower/and tub , separate private hot tub house, porch, stairs to the dock, basement area with couches and three twin beds, with an extra twin mattress under one of the beds. There is high speed internet and Roku TV's in both upstairs bedrooms, in the living room area, and in the basement bunk room. Washer and Dryer are downstairs.

Enjoy the beautiful wildlife, private setting, swimming, boat slip, jet ski slip, lots of lounge chairs, fishing.... all you need to relax and 'get away' from it all!

Closest marinas by car are Whitman Hollow Marina and Indian River Marina, and by boat--Whitman Hollow and Sequoyah Marina is closest. Boat rentals are available at all three of these marinas.

We stayed over Thanksgiving with our kids and dog. The hosts have thought of everything, so well accommodated. The kids and dog had fun running around outside, making smores in the fire table, hiking down to the water, playing board games, running around outside. Great stay!

Weekend trip

Loved the property and all the amenities. The dock is great with the grill and kayak. The property is in a private cove, which was perfect for swimming. Our family rented a boat and had a blast. We enjoyed the hot tub and large deck. Chuck was amazing with communicating and helping with any issues. The worst part was the steps down to the dock.

Perfect getaway

Very peaceful and quite. The 250 steps to the dock are no joke but a great workout. My only complaint would be that only one set of the jets on the hot tub worked and we had to take turns sitting in that spot.

Fun private lakeside retreat, stairs no joke

Loved the private dock on a private cove on a beautiful lake. The 259 stairs are no joke, but well worth the climb for the great time on the water.

The 250 stairs are no joke. Pack lightly for going down for the day. The dock is amazing. Bring Saran Wrap, aluminum foil, and containers for leftovers. They have everything else. We did have some tick issues so bring spray for that. Overall, a seriously amazing and peaceful property.

Dock was amazing

We really enjoyed our stay. The house had everything we needed, but we spent most of our time down at the lake. The dock was fantastic and we had a blast jumping off the top. The hot tub was huge and was great for winding down at the end of the day. Cove was beautiful and quiet, even on a holiday weekend. We were very happy with our stay.
