Almost all lake and lake view properties in this region are steep and hilly with difficult access. Not so at Dancing Dog! Mostly flat grounds allow for plenty of room for playing and relaxing for the entire family and boat/trailer storage space. Comfortable and plentiful seating for outdoor dining / fire pit use. Large yard for outdoor activities when not on the lake. Property is not lakefront, but is lakeview and a short four minute walk to full service Marina with boat ramp and boat rentals.
Front porch swing to welcome each morning. Afternoon hammock naps are a must. Star gazing under clear forest skies. Ice cream awaits at the full service marina for an evening stroll. Relax and enjoy. This home is located 45 minutes from exit 134 off I-75 and about one hour north of Knoxville. If it's quiet, beauty, space and artistic décor you seek - Dancing Dog will thrill and delight you fully. Dancing Dog is an older home (1972) but filled with quieting charm near one of America's cleanest deep water lakes, Norris Lake, will pull you back and back again. So will Dancing Dog.
The city of Lafollette TN, the closest town, is 12 curvy mountainous miles away. That is the closest food store and grocery location. Please stock up before you arrive.

Firstly the host's were incredible, very supportive of our visit. They were able to secure a boat slip for us, provided us with a very entertaining property that the whole family enjoyed.
Plenty of space, for the family to get together or spead out into quite spaces. Lots of parking, we had 5 vehicles and a boat trailer. Although it is close to the lake the walk is a bit of a hike coming back up to the property but a good cardio work out.
The area is nice, even the neighbors were very friendly and cordial. All around a great stay.
There was a little wonkiness with a couple of the bathroom sinks and one shower drain, but nothing to ruin the day. It is very rural and probably very hard to get service technicians out to the property in a timely manner.
We had a group of 16 people of all ages and had a wonderful experience, i would recommend considering this property if you are looking to stay in the area.

Had another great weekend. 3rd time at this property and I see improvements each year.

The property was accurately depicted and was perfect for our family get-away! My husband and I, our 3 kids and their spouses, and the 10 grandkids (ages 1 through 14) stayed 5 days, 4 nights and LOVED this unique, well-kept older property! Large wooded lot, plenty of parking space for our 4 vehicles and boat trailer (5th vehicle one day when another family member came for half a day from nearby). We played volleyball, enjoyed the hot tub, and played in the beautiful yard and patio/porches. A real treat was discovering the swing that each one of us took turns on swinging out over the tree tops!!! (Except the one year old twins😬)
Our host was EXCEPTIONAL, answering all our questions about the home and nearby activities. Always quick to respond and eager to make our stay and GRAND one!
We look forward to returning again soon.

The space of this property was nice. There was plenty of room for everyone including our fur babies. The property was at the top of a hill and a pretty steep walk to get to the marina. Down was okay but going back up carrying our boating things was a challenge. The outside space and tree covered lot was amazing. The cleanliness of the inside of the house could have been better.

We really enjoyed staying at this lakehouse. The amenities were endless. The house was clean and stocked plentiful. We had guests ranging from 83 years of age to under a year. There were plenty of beds and bathrooms for privacy for the 15 guests. The older kids enjoyed the hot tub and the adults enjoyed the porch swing and fire pit. We had a handicapped guest as well and entrance was accessible along with showering. We highly recommend this property for a large group.

The house is far nicer than the pictures show it to be. Everything was clean. There was plenty of room and places to hang out. Any sort of game or activity you could imagine is there for your use. I would highly recommend staying here whether with family or friends
4.7
Property was just as described, better than the pictures. Lots of room and rooms, which we needed. Maybe the best was the outdoor space. Very inviting as you drive in, with the fire pit surrounded by seating.
4.7
There was a lot of flat outside space for games when not at the lake. The fire pit was a great area to unwind after a day on the lake.
Even with the rain there was space to gather for indoor fun and conversation.

Plenty of room for our large group and had everything we needed.

Property location was great. House was large and roomy, HOWEVER not in good condition. Noticeable musty odor, mice droppings throughout the house, generally not clean. Outdoor grill filthy with mold. Obviously would NOT recommend.

We absolutely loved our time at Dancing Dog! The property over delivered in terms of space and accommodations, while providing us with the perfect weekend getaway. The owners were great about answering any and all questions we had prior to check in as well! The home is a short walk or drive away from the marina which is great for a day on the lake, and the outdoor fire pit was the perfect way to wind down at night. Overall, we could not recommend more highly!

Great Stay
The homeowner is wonderful and easy to work with. The walk to and from the marina would be tough for the young or old but not uncommon for the area. This is a great home if you have kids or pets as there is a ton of flat outdoor space.

We enjoyed this perfect location for our family to meet. We had plenty of room for everyone yet it was cozy enough for us to interact easily. We spent most of our time relaxing in the outdoor spaces. Ending our stay with the mandatory s’mores at the great fire pit.
Thank you Dana and Manuel

Overall, we had a great time staying at the Dancing Dog Inn house. I just had one thing to mention. It doesn't say anywhere on the VRBO page that bath towels are not provided. First time I've been to a VRBO property where towels are not provided. With a large group of people, it would be great to know that before the trip. Everything else was great! Loved how close the house is to the lake!

What a great place to stay at Norris!!
We had our adult kids and their children and everyone could be entertained. Amazing place to go back to each day after enjoying the lake. Dana was super helpful with everything we needed. Boat slip was very convenient. We never felt cramped in the house and there is so much space in the yard we could all be doing different things. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed. Any problems we had were addressed immediately. This was an amazing place to make forever memories.

Long weekend at Norris
We enjoyed our week at the lake. The property was very unique to Norris and was nice to have a large piece of land with a fire pit. Steep walk too and from the water. Difficult to maneuver boat on a trailer around the neighborhood due to narrow windy roads, but somewhat expected at Norris. House was listed as fully stocked but there were no bath towels available at all. There was a mouse spotted at one point running through the kitchen and living area. Boat slip easy to find and nice addition to property. Good central location on the lake.

Great stay. Will be back.

Big house with plenty of room for 2 families. We really enjoyed sitting out each night by the fire after a long day on the lake. We would definitely stay here again.

The house was HUGE and there where all sorts of places to sit out side. A lots of room for our dogs and kids to play outside and inside.

Awesome Stay!
My group of 6 adults and kids had a wonderful time at this spacious & well appointed cabin. Most of our time was spent outside which was perfect (including so close we could walk to marina with small kids). We will be back!

Great Place To Unplug
House was great! Very spacious. Lots of bedrooms and baths. Everyone had there own space even the dog. Yard was fantastic. We were outside every minute it wasn’t raining playing all sorts of yard games. Neighborhood was nice and views of the lake breathtaking. It was a short but rigorous walk to marina. The house was extremely well equipped. We did a lot of cooking for 9 people and had practically everything we needed(set of steak knives and measuring teaspoons/tablespoons were all that we were missing). Plenty of bedding/linens and it was really nice to have a washer and dryer. To top it off there was a hot tub we didn’t even know about which was a really nice surprise. Owners were fantastic, extremely responsive with any questions we had. We look forward to another stay at Dancing Dog!

House was great! Had 3 families.
All the adults and the kids Had a great time. Wonderful and friendly neighborhood. Fire pit was a great success to sit around in the evening. We would have liked the upstairs to be cooler. Was hot in the bedrooms. Overall would rent again. Wonderful trip!

There was room for all!!!!
We had a GREAT time at the Dancing Dog!
It was big enough for all of our family. Yet it was so cozy and comfortable at the same time.
We enjoyed all the games (inside and out). We really appreciated all the firewood. We were able to enjoy an inside and outside fire during our stay.
The pantry had all the cooking items we needed and the double oven was a BIG plus for the Thanksgiving meal.
A few items to note...These items are not in any way complaints, just notes for the next traveler. My elderly father could not traverse the stairs to the second floor.
The short handrail made it difficult for him. He was able to stay downstairs, but we then had to rearrange families.
The table lamps have dark shades, and there is not a lot of light in the rooms. We played a lot of games and needed more lighting.
However, we loved the place!
The drive in was a bit curvy. Be prepared! But Google maps took us right there!
Thanks!!!!!

Couldn’t have been better!
The Dancing Dog was a wonderful place to stay! It had such character and charm. The kids enjoyed all the outdoor games and even board games as well! We enjoyed a fire every evening after spending the day on the lake. Dana and Manuel were great hosts answering any questions we had! Awesome memories made!
4.7
Dancing Dog is truly a home away from home
Manuel and Dana could not have been better owners. The house was a delight to return to after long wonderful days on the lake and have a fire every night. Every amenity possible was there. Bonus though, was the many activities on the property to engage young and old alike. Lovely retreat! (and doggies, too).
