A lovely place to stay for a weekend at the lake
My friends and I enjoyed playing games and relaxing while taking advantage of a beautiful weekend at Norris. The kitchen is well appointed and the outdoor space is nice for visiting. Extra lighting- with better bulbs and maybe a lamp or two- would help with both inside and outside living spaces. We used our phone flashlights to finish our dominoes game because it was too dark at 7:30 to see them outside. However, the early morning boat rides and evening sunsets made for a lovely time. This is our second visit to Half Moon Harbor… and we will be back!

If I Could Give it More Stars I Would!
We’ve been coming to Norris for many years and stayed in multiple rental properties, this is by far our favorite. From the drive to the ease of the launch to the amazingness of just coming home at the end of the day and being home with no stairs or golf cart rides to deal with, this place is perfection. Central on the lake and being by stardust makes it easy to just show up if you don’t want to do any cooking. You will not regret staying here. We cannot wait to come back!!!

A little piece of heaven!
Where do I start... the place is amazing. We rented both duplex units and had a party of 12. We were met by the owner upon arrival because he wanted to make sure we had water. A water cooler is provided. I also loved that there were plenty of towels and wash clothes. The dryer is extremely hot and dries quick. Great for those thick beach towels. The swimming area was nice right next to the marina so you could hear the band play on Friday and Saturday nights. The units are covered so they gave plenty of shade if you wanted it. My husband caught two catfish if you are going to be fishing. Saw a few turtles. All and all it was perfect. Clean, comfortable, and fun. We would definitely rent again. Thanks for having us.

Host profile image
We have been avid lake lovers for years and had dreams of purchasing a lake front house. The opportunity arose for us to purchase a floating building that had been a marina. We spent the majority of 2017 renovating the floating building into a vacation home. We hope that you enjoy Half Moon Harbor. It has been a labor of love!

Why they chose this property

Half Moon Harbor was once a marina. We purchased it in July 2017 with intent to renovate and turn it into a floating duplex. After a full 12 months of hard work we accomplished our goal and created a unique floating duplex on the beautiful Norris Lake that has all the comforts of home! We have met some wonderful people from all over the US that have created fond memories.

What makes this property unique

The only Floating Duplex house on Norris that is accessible by land and water. Huge Covered outdoor patio to enjoy lake views and outdoor dining rain or shine. Covered Boat slip right at your front door. Gorgeous sunsets. Perfect spot for fishing right off your own dock. Wake up to the lake being your front yard. On Saturday nights you can listen to the featured band right from your own patio. Paddle boat over to Stardust marina for ice cream or a burger!
