About the host
Hosted by Jennifer Bailey
Living in Knoxville, Tennessee, we fell in love with Norris Lake and Floating cabins! So we grabbed an extra to share with other people.
Why they chose this property
We love this end of the lake. It is quieter, but still full of personality. The fishing is great, the scenery is amazing, and there’s just something fun about walking out the front door and being able to jump in the lake after three or four steps..
What makes this property unique
If you’ve never stayed on a floating cabin, now is the time. It is a completely special experience, one we hope you will want to repeat year after year.
