Host is very courteous and the location is perfect. Always a relaxing, low-maintenance stay for our boating vacation.

Thank you Derrick and Meredith for the Amazing stay! Our family had a blast and will be returning!

We were interested in a lake weekend at Norris Lake. This property is right on the water, and it also has a dock that you can use. We brought our own kayaks, paddle boards, and JetSki, so that was very convenient. The lodging itself is a unit above a large, three car garage. Very nice inside with everything that you need. It is one big space though, so think about that if you need separate rooms, bedrooms, etc. It is great for a couple. The host is very nice and responsive. Good information and tips for the lake. No problems with anything. If we need more lake time, we would be happy to return!

Thanks, Derek.

This place was super clean. Derrick and Meredith were super friendly and very helpful. Our family is already looking forward to staying a couple more times this year!

Nice quite place to get away beautiful lake .

A great stay nature wise and jet skis! Lotta fun thanks guys

What a great stay. Derrick is an excellent host. His property is beautiful. I enjoyed sitting on the deck just outside the rental. You could see the cove from there. Derrick was very knowledgeable of the lake which helped me with my fishing. It is also quiet. I will stay there again.

Derrick and Meredith are outstanding hosts, very friendly and helpful. We loved the space and had a great time and the location is perfect, close to town and to the marina. We're looking forward to coming back and enjoying another long weekend next year.

Great stay, we enjoyed our weekend getaway.. This property was amazing, we'll be back. Derrick was an awesome host.

We absolutely love Norris and wanted to head down for Labor Day. Their home came up and I have to say we’ll be back. The Johnson’s are the nicest people and really make you feel welcome. They had a spot for us to put our boat and the wave runner we rented from them was a blast!!! This place was perfect for our family of 5 and located close to everything!! Definitely recommend!!!

The host family were friendly and welcoming! We rented the tritoon during our stay, which was an extremely easy process. The boat has been well maintained, easy to operate, and having the dock on site made getting on the water a breeze. All in all the wife and I, had a wonderful time! 10/10!

I was looking for a place to dock our boat and lay our heads at night ….and Derricks place fit the bill!! He was very informative and very helpful in every way possible. His place was very comfortable, quaint and quiet. We had everything we needed and felt very safe in our environment. We spent a ton of time on our boat and Norris lake did not disappoint. From waterskiing to just lounging in the water , it was fabulous!! Loved it all!!!

We found a little gem of a property with Derrick and Meredith’s “mother-in-law” suite by Norris Lake. We love the lake life and on a whim, scheduled a long weekend at the property. We were pleasantly surprised to find a very clean, comfortable property with all the space our family of 4 needed for a few days. The kitchenette was perfect for making easy meals, and the sleeper sofa was perfect for our kids (10 and 7). The bed was comfortable, the internet was great to stream videos (and catch up on work email). But the real prize of the property is the dock—it’s perfect for sunbathing, swimming or fishing. They also have all the water toys you could want: kayaks, a paddle board, a lily pad mat, and water noodles. They also have a spacious tritoon boat for rent as well as jet skis. We rented the boat for a day, and Derrick took the time to walk us through all the boat’s “bells and whistles” so we felt confident taking it out on the water. They have knee boards and tubes for the boat, too! As far as hosts, Derrick was excellent! Very communicative and responsive to my questions. You can’t go wrong with this property if you’re looking for a fun, relaxing weekend at the lake.

This is a nice place to stay on the lake. Apartment was above garage separate from owners house. Plenty of room and nice bathroom and partial kitchen. Dock is really nice and easy access to to lack Norris by boat or jet ski. Close to Sequoyah marina and Stardust marina which had live music Saturday night

Had a really nice time. Place is in a quiet neighborhood and part of the lake. Floating off the dock and swimming was very relaxing. The place is perfect size for a couple. Had everything we needed. Best part was renting Derricks pontoon and jet ski for a day each. He was very accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed on our trip. We Would definitely stay here again if ever at lake Norris for a summer trip

THE place to be, owners are very polite -- we've had an awesome few days on the lake (including the boat we rented along with the cabin) -- Thank you again for having us!

Derrick and Meredith's place was very cozy and inviting. Derrick provided great communication for us also. There were grocery stores about 15 minutes away that provided us what ever we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our time out on the boat and thought the lake was beautiful. We did not have the best of luck fishing here so I would not recommend this lake for that at least in the summer. Despite that, this place has a great dock for hanging out with friends and family and swimming, canoeing, and tubing on the boat was a blast!

Perfect location and just the right amount of space for an anniversary trip for my husband and I. We loved everything about our stay, and having the boat available right at the house made the trip!!! Highly recommend and will hopefully visit again soon!!

Second time we have stayed here and will be back again!! Host is great to work with and makes everything stress free!!

Thanks again for another great getaway. Great hosts always ready to help and accommodate our needs.Everything is clean and comfortable. So nice being able to keep our boat at the dock and just head down for a day on the water. We highly recommend this place for a couple or small family. If you don’t need a big house this is perfect!

This is a beautiful property. The landscaping is beautiful and well hidden in a nice cove. The accommodations were very nice and clean. The hosts were excellent. We rented their pontoon for the weekend and cruised all over the lake. A great weekend was had and we will be going back before the summer ends.

This place is awesome! The hosts were super friendly, and everything was very clean. Definitely coming back!

Very convenient to Windrock, Knoxville and Gatlinburg. Accommodations were spot on and the owners were extremely nice(and helpful). This place would be incredible during the summer with the convenient and easy lake access. Highly recommend this property.

beautiful setting and lovely hosts… perfect for a long fun filled week at the lake or a quiet intimate getaway!

The property owners were very detailed with everything and the area was gorgeous and kept up nicely! They were very accommodating with my work schedule and will definitely stay again in the future! Thank you very much for everything!

Clean and nicely furnished loft. Property owners responded quickly to questions.

Great place for two fishermen. A couple, or small family. Nice dock to tie up your boat in a quiet cove so it doesn't get beat up by boat wake. Host is the best. Even helped me getting over to launch ramp and back which is only a couple miles away.

The property was amazing. The owners made check in a breeze! Access to the water is great! The owners are very responsive and kind! Glad we spent our honeymoon weekend at this property!

The owners have a unique gem of a property with many beautiful landscape features from the previous owner, a landscape designer...very cool. The lake is another unique experience, a little research reveals Norris Lake as a special situation that is part engineering marvel of our forefathers, part gift from nature. The accommodations are spacious and fun, a typical lakefront type of structure above a garage. Not perfect for small kids but doable, a perfect couples getaway. Host is accessible and communicative...we like that they are on site...a win, win. Overall a good value at a very popular destination. They even have rental watercraft available at times...this is of course an extra worth mentioning. We would recommend unless you have a difficult child, then maybe not. Our little guy is 10 months and did well with everything but the roman shade chords...not super kid friendly...not advertised as this so they aren't hiding anything. A very happy boating and lake trip for us...

This was our second year in a row staying here. Derrick is extremely accommodating and nice. He’s honest and quick to respond. He reaches out if there are any concerns, and will offer solutions to help resolve it. My family and I had a wonderful time! The kids loved swimming by the dock and at the little beach near by. Definitely recommend staying here. We’ll be back! Thank you Derrick for another year full of family memories!

The property is even better than photos. The hosts were wonderful and very helpful! Will definitely stay here again!
