Log home in peaceful cove. Great for multiple families. Starlink internet
Lazy Life Lake Lodge We have replaced our grill with a new stainless 5 burner grill and have also replaced all mattresses and box springs, king size beds in bedrooms 3 queen beds in loft. This gorgeous log home is located in a pristine cove in the Cove Pointe / Big Creek area on Norris Lake (point 6). The lake is literally right out your window. Home is in a cove so lake/ dock is primarily accessible may, June, July, aug early September due to lake level dropping in the off season. We still book outside lake season as the area is a peaceful getaway to enjoy family time.
The home features two main decks that over look the crystal clear lake and woods and there are 2 smaller decks on the side of the home and out front. Great places to hang out.
The home itself boasts a well furnished great room that is so welcoming and includes a nice large fire place with a newly installed big screen TV above fireplace. Great place to relax and enjoy family. Also a highlight are the excellent dining areas both inside and on the main deck with a wonderful view of the woods and water. You will find that everyone seems to gravitate to that main deck and its so fun to settle in after a long day on the water to laugh and tell stories. The kitchen is fully equipped and up to date including disposal, blender, dish washer etc. so you can focus on the fun stuff rather than the clean up. The washer and dryer in the main bathroom offers further convenience.
All bedrooms are roomy and tastefully finished- pillow and fresh bed linens provided. And if you fall asleep on that comfy couch... well... people might just leave you there!
Also- just in case of a rainy day we have videos and games but feel free to bring your own favorite fun stuff. The cabin has Wi-Fi but we hope you spend most of your time on the water and don't really need it.
The easy walk to the dock and water is a short path through the beautiful canopy of trees. You may see deer- turtles- squirrels- wood peckers- otters or just about anything on your way to the lake. The dock gives you plenty of room to put your boat and feel free to bring your jet skis and put then on the 2 jet ski ports. Sequoyah, Whitman Hollow and Star Dust Marinas are near by. In season you can enjoy great food and drinks at the marinas.
Need a boat look up local marinas for rentals.
You just wont find a home this nice in such a beautiful cove on Norris Lake at this price. Trust me- this is the best part of the lake! And the beautiful cabin is perfect!!

Great place for a family vacation! Responsive host, comfortable accommodations, well-stocked kitchen, quiet location on a beautiful lake--ticked all the boxes!
Loved this cabin. It was perfect for our early Thanksgiving with our family. The kids had plenty of room to play and sleep. We spent most of our time outside enjoyed playing corn hole and hanging out by the fire. The property is very peaceful and beautiful to the lake. Would recommend this property to anyone looking to get away.
We had a great time at this location. The house comes with all the amenities to facilitate a weeklong stay. The location on the lake provides a great cove to swim in (kids absolutely loved the slide) and we were able to visit almost all the marinas on the west side of the lake via boat. Would definitely recommend a stay here.
Loved the cabin like house, the porches, the private dock, the cove, the nature and the fire pit. All of it was wonderful!!
Perfect rooms for the whole family!!
Very relaxing and comfortable. Lots of steps to the water, but not a problem.
Highly recommend this house for family vacations!
Would also recommend renting a boat if you don't already have one, the lake is beautiful!
Great place for large group to get together and enjoy themselves in a beautiful, quiet setting. Hosts were great and quick to respond when and if needed. Would like to visit again in warmer weather when we could enjoy the beautiful lake.
Its a great location with plenty of room and a very nice part of the lake. We had camp fires, used the dock, rented a boat and went off-roading near by. Stock up before you go, your about 25 minutes from groceries. If your into water sports or fishing, the lake is amazingly clear and you can hop from marina to marina to refresh and eat.
Overall, the cabin was beautiful and the view even more lovely. The internet and cable were intermittent but we brought our Roku and had absolutely no problems watching tv in the evening.
The only problem we had was that TVA had continued dropping the lake level and one day after we had been out boating all day, we came back and noticed that the whole dock had been moved down in front of the next door neighbor. But we spoke with the owners (who were always responsive) and got permission from their neighbor to use their stairs.
All in all - we had a wonderful time and enjoyed our stay.
Thank you!
Very nice cabin. Norris Lake is very clean. The only thing i didnt agree with was the clean up rules when leaving. I can see straightening everything up but, wiping down bathroom and kitchen counters, and stove
and refridgerator, plus sweeping all the floors, emptying all trash and starting a load of towels and sheets is what you pay a cleaning fee for.
Very spacious home/ steep drive/ limited parking/ In area for wedding / would have enjoyed more time at property just very busy/ tech impaired I guess could not get dvd system or Wi-Fi to work No cell service/ at least 1/2 hr to Walmart/ fast food
If you are looking to get away from hustle and bustle of everyday life, this is a good place to do it. The beds were great. This is a large place and will sleep a small army. It is a nice cabin, right on beautiful Norris Lake which has some of the clearest, cleanest water you will see. Communication with the owner was very good. Everything worked. We went during the off season so the lake was dropped to winter pool levels. I think it would have been nicer at summer pool levels and taking a boat, but we just wanted some time together as a family. I recommend it.

Eight was enough in this cozy log cabin
If you’re looking to be close with your friends and family, this will work for you. It’s a pretty log cabin, but it is not roomy. The bedrooms are good sized with king beds, but the single living room is small and the only dining table seats eight. There is no outdoor eating area with seats unless you want to hold plates on your lap.
It was very dirty, not swept, dust built up on ceiling fans, and vents, dirty fridge, etc. The dock is peeling paint and broken Bring extra forks and lighting if you plan to sit outside as there is a lack of both. There are lots of bath towels and the a/c and hot water work well. Nice swimming area in front of the dock.

Beautiful home
It was ok. Room were set up well. It did not have kitchen towel, bath towels for 10 people, not enough oven dishes to prepare meals. They wanted you to do their clean-up for them. strip the beds. Isn't that what the cleaning fee is for I thought.

Toilets were not clean, had poo on toilet when we arrived. No air hockey table like advertised.
Overall it was a nice trip. Very accommodating for the amount of people we had. Make sure you have everything you need while in town it took us about 25 mins to get to Walmart. The only negative thing would have to be the Wi-Fi kept cutting out around the same time every night. The last day there we didn’t have service at all until we loaded up the next morning to leave. We have small children so some service would of been great incase if an emergency. The cabin is out in the middle of nowhere so it’s to be expected I suppose.

Lovely Cabin in the Woods
This was most of our first time to Norris Lake. We booked this house specifically because it had a nice dock which we wanted to be able to access for swimming and to hook up our boat rental. Unfortunately the dock had been moved, making it very difficult to access (through the woods). This really changed the vibe of our stay and we were sorely disappointed by this. The owners were slow to respond to us when we questioned where the dock was. Communications could have been better all around. The home itself was nice and comfortable. We just wished we could have accessed the lake more easily given it was the reason for the trip.
Overall home provided a very relaxing vacation for all.
Steps were hard on my in-laws at 76 years old. Kids ram up and down them.
Driveway was very steep. Cars got a little scrapped up on the underside trying to turn around. Best to back down if you have multiple cars that will be there.
Beds were extremely comfortable. All talked about how well they slept.
Paddle board and air hockey table were not present as listed in add. A little disappointing as if we had know that we would have brought our paddle board with.
Overall nice property and beautiful lake.
