'The Lakefront Lodge' - Spacious Lakefront 3 Bedroom W/ Private Covered Dock

Please Note: Our house is in a peaceful cove in the Big Creek area of Norris Lake. It is perfect for families and friends looking to have a fun and relaxing vacation. If you are a college group or group of loud, partying adults we suggest you look for other properties around Norris Lake.

This spacious lakefront log home is perfect for your family get-away. The 2800 sf cabin sleeps 12 and features two large family rooms with plenty of space to play games, watch movies, and spend quality time together. It has 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths and features lots of windows to view the blue-green waters of beautiful Norris Lake from almost any room in the house. The location on the water is in the highly desirable and secluded Big Creek area of Norris Lake perfectly situated between Whitman Hollow and Sequoyah Marinas. The Lakefront Lodge features new stainless steel appliances, fully equipped kitchen, 50 lb per day ice maker, large bedrooms, family room w/foosball, and first-level living room. Access the two-level spacious decking overlooking Norris lake through either the living room or family room. It is minutes away from Whitman Hollow, Sequoyah Marina, and Shanghai Resort. Don't worry about the security of your boat trailer at a boat launch since there is plenty of on-site parking for boat trailers and vehicles.

This 2800 square foot home sleeps 12 and has 3 levels with lots of windows:

The top has 1 master bedroom with king bed, full sleeper sofa and full bath with jacuzzi tub.

The middle (main) has a living room, kitchen, dining room with table seating for 8 plus 2 more at the kitchen counter and 1/2 bath. The spacious living room offers a 65” TV and two full size leather reclining couches, leather recliner, and bay window for additional seating.

The lower has 2 bedrooms. One with a Queen bed and a set of bunk beds and the other has full over full bunk beds. Between the bedrooms is a full bath with washer and dryer. The lower level has a family room with LED TV and foosball table which leads out to a large deck overlooking beautiful Norris Lake.

Outside, enjoy gathering with family & friends while grilling out on the gas grill or playing corn hole. There is plenty of eating & gathering space outside on the lower deck, or enjoy eating at the upper level 'high-top' area while overlooking the water. Enjoy your morning cup of coffee on the porch swing with just the sounds of nature on this secluded part of the lake. During the day, spend time boating on the clear, glass-like water of Big Creek or just relax and have fun swimming or hanging out at the private covered dock with giant swim platform and picnic tables...in the back of a quiet deep-water cove, there's no need to worry about wake from boats cruising by at high speed. Float in the lake or take the paddle boat or 2 provided kayaks out for a cruise and look for many of the turtles, heron, or beavers that live in the cove. Fishing off a paddle boat is great too - it gives you access to many more spots on the water than you could fit a boat. In the evenings, enjoy eating S'mores around the campfire at the large fire pit.

Take the steps or walk the concrete path using the available pull-cart down to the Private Wahoo dock with 26' deep covered single slip, swim platform, & gangway with rails. A giant 30' x 16' (480 sq ft) steel platform dock was added in 2017. This swim platform has multiple picnic tables and seating for relaxing and fishing in the back of the cove. You may want to spend all day just at the dock with our recently installed patio cooler, water slide, and water basketball hoop. All docks have composite decking so no need to worry about splinters in little feet. Please note: like many houses at Norris lake, there are steps to the water. Taking the path will only leave 25-35 steps depending on the water level.

We do ask all guests to wet-sign a copy of our rental agreement subsequent to booking.
During your stay at this cabin, you're just a quick walk from Norris Lake. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and in-room jetted baths in the cabin.

GREAT SPOT!
Beautiful house and a great stay. But the real highlight is the dock and crystal clear water of Norris Lake. We had a great time. Steps are steep but certainly doable.

Family trip
Wonderful place to stay! The house was perfect for our family. It was spotless and had all the comforts of home. The water is so clean and blue. When we first arrived a major storm had passed thru leaving us with no power. I reached out to the owner and within minutes had an update from him on when the power would be back on. Great communication!! Would definitely stay here again!

Norris Lake Family Vacation
Very nice stay at Lakefront Lodge. Location of property on cove was perfect to be away from the boat traffic but still easy to get to most locations on the water. Dock area was very nice to hang out and swim. Property is as described and very clean. Owners were very responsive to very minor issues we had and great to work with. Only downside specifically for our family with children was there are a lot of steps (100+) down to the water from the house with no railing for most of the way. Even the walk path down is quite steep. This is common for this area but good to be aware of this in advance.

Good house/ convenient location on the lake
Great house. It has a decent amount of steps to get down to the water, but if you minimize trips, it’s definitely doable. There is a ramp that you can walk things down with the provided carts, but it is still fairly steep. The listing states there is no WiFi, but it has been recently outfitted and worked well for everyone that was in the house. Most things that we needed in the kitchen were supplied as far as cooking utensils. The dock was very nice and the kids had a blast sliding down the water slide. Overall it was a very nice house with plenty of room.

Quiet cove vacation
This was our third year to Norris Lake and just one more reason to keep coming back. Property was just as listed and was nice being in a no wake cove. Easy access to launch boat 16 min away and plenty of room for vehicles and trailer. Thanks again for allowing us to stay in your home.

Norris Lake stay
Very enjoyable stay. Very well furnished. Had everything we needed. Beautiful setting. Owners were always there when we needed an answer for a question. Only disappointment was the amount of steps to & from the dock. Quite a height difference from cabin to dock.

Incredible!
We absolutely loved our stay at this property. The house was gorgeous and had plenty of room for all of us to spread out. The views from the covered porch were amazing, and even though hurricane Ida swept through during our time there, we enjoyed looking at the lake from the porch.Words really can’t describe how wonderful the dock area is. So much thought and care was put into constructing it, and we spent many happy hours on it. There was a wonderful place to dock our boat, in a covered slip, and we felt right at home. Thank you Nick for your communication and for how wonderful you have made this little slice of heaven.

Great place
The house was great. Wonderful location on a beautiful cove. It was perfect for our little kids to swim in. This is one of the nicest docks I’ve seen. The use of the kayaks and paddle boats were a great perk! We had plenty of space for 10 people from 2 families. The steps are a lot as with most Norris homes….. if you’re not in half way decent shape you might not be able to handle them but we managed it! The path and steps are sturdy. A couple negatives : one- the beds aren’t very comfy, could use mattress upgrades- two- no towels provided. Every vrbo house I’ve stayed in has provided bath towels and hand towels so that was missed. We were made aware of this fact ahead of the time so it wasn’t a huge deal. We had some trouble getting connected to the wifi but Nick was quick to respond and help me get everyone connected! We had decent service and were even able to stream some. All in all it was a great trip and we would book this house again!

Worth it
Everything was accurate in the description. A lot of room and with 3 levels it was easy to get quiet time if needed. The additional ice maker was an awesome bonus and saved trips to the store, I wish more people had these! Communication was great with the owner and was in contact during our stay. Thank you and hope to be back!

Great stay!
We had a great stay. The house was very clean. The kids had a great time at the dock swimming and fishing and paddle boarding. The cove was extremely quiet (just what we were looking for). The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed for dinner each night. Cell service was spotty and the WiFi wasn’t perfect but we were still able to communicate if had to. 5 stars from us!

Great property and excellent location!
When looking for a place to stay when we are at Norris lake I look for properties with covered boat slips and also houses that are in a cove away from rougher water so the boat isn’t banging around in the slip. This property provides this plus much more. The ice makers was another plus to this property. You don’t need to run to the store or marina every morning to ice up the cooler. Overall we had and excellent stay. The owners were great to work with also.

Beautiful, but use caution.
The property was beautiful and well equipped. Definitely remote, as described. Limited to no cell/internet service which we were expecting and would have been fine except we had an unexpected emergency and even the landline was not working. Luckily, we didn’t need the landline to call for EMS, but I couldn’t help but think what if it had been a life threatening situation with one of our kids. The emergency was caused by an unsafe condition on the property (gravel path laid at the top of a hill). Unfortunately, we had to cut the vacation short and have incurred thousands of dollars in medical bills. The owner was sympathetic, expressed genuine concern, and followed up the week after the vacation to see how the injured individual was doing (very much appreciated) and how the injury occurred so they could hopefully prevent it from happening to anyone else (very responsible). However, I just can’t in good conscience recommend this property to families.

Fun Weekend Stay
The fact that the house sits back on one of the coves and the dock is supplied with kayaks, paddle boat, water basketball, etc makes it perfect for relaxing down by the lake. Nice outdoor spaces as well by the firepit or on the back patio. Only minor negative guests mentioned was that the beds were not the most comfortable. Overall though a pleasant stay and would consider staying again in the future.
