Lake houses and cabins on Norris Lake in East Tennessee, managed by a local team.
Norris Lake is a large reservoir in East Tennessee, formed by Norris Dam, the Tennessee Valley Authority’s first dam. Its clear water and wooded shoreline make it a favorite for boating, fishing and family summers. Casago Smoky Mountains manages a large collection of Norris Lake homes and cabins.
A lake house puts the water at the center of your trip. Spend the day on a boat or a dock, then come back for dinner on the deck. Norris Lake is north of Knoxville, within an easy drive of the city.
Our Norris Lake rentals range from cozy cabins for couples to larger homes for families and groups. Each listing shows its own details, so check the listing for lake access, dock and parking information.
The lake has many coves and marinas, with boat rentals available around the lake.

Summer weekends and holidays are the busiest times on the lake, so book early for those dates. If you’re bringing your own boat, check the listing or ask us about parking and dock space before you arrive. Water levels change through the year, and TVA publishes lake level information on its website.
Norris Lake also pairs well with a mountain trip. Some guests spend a few days on the lake, then head to one of our cabins in the Smokies. Tell us what you have in mind and we’ll help you plan.
Norris Lake is in East Tennessee, north of Knoxville, and stretches across several counties.
It depends on the home. Each listing shows its own details, so check the listing or call us to confirm lake access and dock details.
Summer is the main boating season. TVA lowers the lake level in winter, so water levels are higher in summer.
