About this house rental
Looking for the perfect escape to unwind, enjoy the outdoors, and spend quality time with family? Look no further than 'Powder Mill Lodge', conveniently located on Norris Lake in LaFollette, TN, near The Greens at Deerfield golf course as well as Springs Dock Marina.
The moment you arrive, the driveway opens up to sprawling views of Norris Lake and the custom Jim Barna log home. Relax on the large deck or venture down the new gently sloped steps with easy to hold handrail to the private dock with plenty of room for hanging out and swimming (one covered slip and two uncovered boat tie up locations available to guests). For travelers interested in a Fall, Winter or Spring stay, we have a concrete walkway (excellent condition) that extends across the red clay shoreline to the dock walkway when the water is at lower levels.
The open concept kitchen makes family dinners a breeze and the lake views make the wine taste that much sweeter. The spacious gathering area gives multiple families ample room, Wi-Fi access keeps you connected, and satellite TV has the kids entertained. As the sun rises, sip on a cup of joe as the fog lifts off the water. You just may see a bald eagle fly by.
At Powder Mill Lodge we take extra steps for your safety and enjoyment. We have the best cleaning team on the lake (see our reviews). The cabin has state of the art water filtering, softening and anti-bacterial technology.
Powder Mill Lodge is located across from Point 11 in deep water, where two coves and the main lake come together allowing for boating, skiing, kayaking, fishing and much more! As the sun sets, return from your last minute boat cruise to a craftsman style grill & smoker for a mouthwatering feast. Dinner settles best under the open sky by the outdoor stone fire-pit with breathtaking views.
This beautiful cabin proved to be very popular in its first five seasons. We carefully consider customer suggestions and often implement corresponding improvements. We are blessed that guests frequently return.

Absolutely beautiful! Just stayed for a long weekend but we love it so much we have already booked for a week next summer. Weather was cool but that didn’t stop the kids from swimming and enjoying the kayaks. We can’t wait for next summer when the weather is warmer so we can all enjoy the water! Have rented through VRBO, etc several times but this is our favorite place to stay hands down! Best equipped kitchen we’ve had! Made cooking very easy! With the open floor plan we could all talk and cook at the same time so no one felt left out.
The owner answered my many questions in a very timely manner. Very friendly and so easy to talk to! On the trip home today everyone was very excited to be making plans for next year. We go somewhere different every year but this was such a wonderful experience that we all unanimously agreed we’re returning next year and staying in the same place. This is the first time we have ever returned to the same place. The kids are already talking about returning every year!
The countdown to Summer, 2024 has begun!

Absolutely stunning! This was a family trip celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary and we couldn’t have been more pleased! The property was clean and comfortable and had a spectacular view of the lake! The place looked just as if not better than the online pictures and Gerry was great to work with! This was our first visit and we will definitely be back! Thank you for sharing your beautiful place with us!

We’d stayed with our 4 young adult children for the week. The cabin was immaculate! The cleanest rental we have stayed in. Everything you need is right there! The view of the lake is amazing! We rented a boat, went tubing, got jet skis and had so much fun exploring all the different areas of Norris Lake. Many fun family memories were made. The outside steps look intimidating in the photos, but they are not as tough as they look, really wide stairs which is helpful. The town is not super close so we planned out our meals ahead of time and grabbed what we needed at the grocery stores before we headed to the cabin. Worked out great! Gerry was so easy to work with, super communicative and informative. Overall wonderful experience!

This is a lovely home on what I consider the best lake I’ve ever been to. We boated, tubed, swam, fished, ate soft serve ice cream at the marina, made s’mores at the fire pit, played board games and had a lot of laughs. The house is clean, nicely located with great views of the lake. It has all the amenities a family would want or need. I look forward to our return!

This was our third time on the lake, but first time at PML. So many positive things to say!! Perfect location, it was 4 hours exactly from Cincinnati, the house is positioned back between two coves (completely private) making it the ideal location to kayak and swim. I would have to say this house is my favorite location so far! The view is just breathtaking and YES Gerry it is as beautiful and some of the lakes in Montana!!
We can't thank you enough for your kindness!!! Gerry and Bridget really know how to take care of their guests. Please let the cleaning crew know how much we appreciated them! The house was ready and just perfect!

The owners are extremely responsive and any questions were answered promptly. The preparation email had all of the information we needed to know what to expect and what we should bring for our trip.
This cabin is in a perfect location, close to many marinas but set back away from most of the waves. The drive in can be a little intimidating, but once you've done it, you know what to expect. If you happen to miss the driveway, you'll need to back up to make the turn as it is too sharp to make from the other direction. We had room to park several vehicles and 2 trailers and there was room to maneuver trailers for the return trip.
The dock is well equipped with bumpers for your boat, plenty of places for visitors to tie up, and the perfect place for swimming. The views from the deck (and dock) are amazing and watching the mist roll through the mountains in the morning is peaceful and serene.
The bedrooms are well appointed and comfortable, plenty space for our extended family. We had most everything we needed in the kitchen and there is ample seating for dining and family games. We were also able to move chairs around the deck to eat meals outside to enjoy the view.
Thank you for sharing your home, it made our first family trip to Norris very enjoyable. We can't wait to come back!

It was everthing the reviews said it was. Great location! We arrived on Saturday 5/13 the main walkway from dry land to the boat dock had floated out of position ,and neither I nor my wife could reach the dock. I called the owner and he had it repaired that evening!! Plus we found a black rat snake on top of the stacked firewood and the same man who repaired the dock took care of the snake!! I am deathly afraid of snakes! Other than that the week was perfect, we even caught fish!

We stayed at this property over spring break. This home was absolutely perfect! You can tell the owners put a lot of love in this home. It is clean, spacious, and the location is perfect. It is right on the lake with a private deck. They have a nice covered table on the dock perfect for hanging out. There is a fire pit with several chairs for a campfire. Perfect for s’mores and star gazing. They had two kayak’s that my kids enjoyed exploring the lake. The owners had a ton of information and recommendations for us. We had a fishing guide take us on a half day of fishing. My son caught a 30 pound striper. and my daughter a 15 pound striper. We cooked it up on the grille back at the house. This is the perfect spot for a family and or friend vacation. We plan on going back again and again.

Amazing Accommodations
The property’s description was so accurate, and is one of the cleanest rentals we have stayed in. Gerry was wonderful to communicate with since the time of booking. He was very thorough on directions, restaurants, and home accommodations. We absolutely LOVED the steadiness of the dock, the size of the dock, and the ability to have our boat in all week. It was truly an amazing property, with a fantastic homeowner, and a fabulous week at Powder Mill Lodge.

WOW! this place was a little slice of heaven!
We were coming for a regatta near by but knew nothing about the area. After a sometimes scary drive to what felt like the middle of nowhere, we came down the driveway to stunning views! We felt like we were the only ones on the lake! The house was the perfect place for our family get away. The kitchen was big and had everything we needed to prepare meals for our large family. The owner was super helpful before we arrived, all his suggestions were spot on. He recommended a marina for boat rental and they were great! I wish we had planned a longer stay! I would recommend this property to anyone! Thanks for having us! Hopefully we can return soon!

Beautiful home and fall colors in October
Enjoyed a very relaxing vacation at Powder Mill Lodge to see the fall colors and go fly fishing. The views from the deck are serene and the home is very comfortable and clean. We had a great time fishing on the Clinch River. The owners were very attentive. Hope to return.

Quiet, peaceful, perfect place to stay right on the water!
The cabin was beautifully decorated and immaculately clean with a perfect set up for our group of 6.(4 adults, a 7yr old, and a 2yr old) We agreed that it could easily accommodate 3 families comfortably though. Gerry, the owner is very knowledgeable of the area and was able to make many recommendations from restaurants to golfing to recreational activities to fishing charters for our stay as well as giving detailed directions to the cabin.We were able to communicate easily with him at any time from the start.Checking in at 4pm was very smooth with the key code provided for the Nest door knob.The cabin is about 30 minutes from the nearest Walmart and about 20 mins from Food Lion grocery store where we were able to grab last minute groceries on the way in or on our way back from our day’s adventures.The cabin was incredibly clean as I am particular about that, and everything in the cabin from furniture to appliances have been well kept so it felt like everything was new. Gerry and Bridget had two large cases of bottled water waiting for us which was a nice touch. The common spaces provided plenty of sitting room with an open concept for both of our families. The bed rooms were much larger than they appeared in the listing photos. The two rooms upstairs not only have the two beds shown in the listing, but there is also a futon in one and a twin in the other which provides even more room to sleep. The beds and pillows were very comfortable.There are nice, dark, adjustable shades on the windows that keep the bedrooms dark if you choose to sleep in. There were several extra blankets provided that we were able to make use of. We had plenty of bath towels and wash cloths for our week long stay. We brought extra toilet paper, paper towels, and garbage bags which came in handy through the week but the kitchen is very well stocked with everything you need to cook and eat with. There were 2 single kayaks provided, however my 7yr old and I were able to comfortably share the larger. (Bring your own life jackets though.)Being able to walk right down to the dock in the back yard and launch was incredible! There are two tables on the beautiful wrap around porch which were a perfect place for coffee, a glass of wine, and dinner.The WiFi and service was a little spotty, but being in a quiet, more remote location made up for it. We really loved The Powder Mill Lodge and would highly recommend!

Norris Lake Dream Weekend!
We had some family and friends stay here for a lake weekend girl’s trip and it was perfect! Gerhardt made it so special by a personalized phone inquiry and many follow up emails and texts. He was extremely transparent, thorough, kind and knowledgeable! The house and host exceeded our highest expectations! The house is gorgeous, clean and tucked into a little cove with a private dock! They had everything we needed for our stay and more! If you’re planning on visiting Norris Lake, you must stay here! We will be coming back and recommending this property to our friends and family!
