Family vacation

The lodge was amazing! Exactly as described in listing and the kitchen was better equipped then my own home, which was necessary for us as we cooked in almost every day! Beds were comfortable It rained first 2 days but with the game room and covered deck there was plenty to do! Thanks so much for a great week!

Family Christmas reunion

We had a wonderful time at the Lake Side Lodge! My siblings and I have been gathering at Christmas for over 25 years in the Norris lake / Gatlinburg area… and this was one of our favorite places! 7 Bedrooms, a large cozy family room, a dining room table with seating for all of us!! It was awesome!! Loved the fire pit, ping pong table, the view of the water, and a fully stocked kitchen with everything you could want to prepare and cook meals! Super kind and attentive hosts!

Great lake views!

Everything was exactly as listed. Beautiful view of the lake. Game room full of games was a plus, we had everyone entertained. We got lost trying to find the house specially since we arrived at night, but once you find it you can get around. Most of our family has AT&T and we did not have signal at all, the good thing is that they had wifi. But overall it was a great vacation, we hope to be back soon!

10/10 best place on Norris lake

We rented the lakeside lodge for the first time this year and all I can say is this place fit every need we had for 11 people, very well equipped home had everything we needed in the kitchen, two of everything made it so nice to cook for a large group, the area was great the house was clean and beds were very comfortable everyone says they slept like a baby,. We loved the way they thought of everything had a whole closet full of games and toys a neat hideout for kids, the owners Steve and Kathy Ray are amazing and got back to us right away with any questions.. we already booked for next year in this gorgeous home.. the dock was awesome lots of room for our jet skis and tritoon boat…. Best house we have been in on Norris, we have been coming over 10 years and this was the best so far .. highly recommend if you need a home for a large party, and every bedroom was a master with king beds and private bath plus a bunk room .. can’t add enough stars to this home

Wonderful Experience

Steve and Kathy’s home was exactly what my group was looking for! Plenty of space for our group of eleven. The kitchen had absolutely everything necessary to fix any meal during your stay. The view from the deck was incredible. To get to the water and the private boat dock was not steep compared to other homes on the lake. The location of their home is perfect to get to the famous jumping bridge, as well as gas for your boat at Sugar Hollow Marina. Both of these were within a five minute ride from the dock. Kathy even called the house phone during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed, which I found very considerate. When I got home from our trip, I immediately talked to my wife and we plan on coming back to the lodge next year and bring the kids! I had such a great time at their beautiful home. Thank you Steve and Kathy! -Ben

Wonderful hoise

I can’t say enough good things about this house. It was perfect for us. The house is very nice and very clean. The location near the marina was a big plus. We loved all of the toys and games for kids. We couldn’t ask for better communication with property owners. We would definitely stay here again.

The best house we have stayed!

This was the most amazing house we have vacationed at! Every room had a bathroom so privacy was not an issue. Outdoor spaces were beautiful and the view from every window was amazing. Host was very friendly and accommodating. The golf course was 8 minutes away and we played it 3 times during our stay because it was that fun with lots of elevation changes! Tons of games and toys to keep kids occupied for hours in case of a rainy day! I have nothing bad to say about this beautiful home.

Beautiful, spacious house on the lake with so much to offer!!

Whether on either of the two decks, around the large kitchen table or massive island, game room or living area, this house allows plenty of opportunity to spend time with family or friends! We had no younger children in our group, but the kids kamp is adorable and makes me wish that my children/grandchildren were young enough to bring here. My siblings/husband live in four different states and this place was perfect for us to meet, kick back and enjoy some time reconnecting. So much to do that we didn’t even have time to do it all! The owners are very responsive and kind to share their get away with others. If you’re looking for a place to really get away, this is it!

Perfect for larger group / family trip.

The layout of this lodge allows everyone to be close for dinners, games while providing great lake views. Each bedroom with bath was also nice, kids camp was a winner for the small kids. The slope walk to water allows a golf cart to take our older mom and handicap kids down with little effort. Long and short is hated to leave and can't wait to return.

Perfect for family vacations!

Lakeside Lodge was the perfect location for my water-loving family to relax, unwind, and have fun in the sun. The rooms were clean and spacious, the kitchen was well equipped, and the game room had a large variety of activities to fit a variety of ages. We loved having 2 refrigerators and dishwashers. Our grandson had a blast staying in the Kids Camp. The walk down to the water was steep, but that’s to be expected for Lake Norris and we much preferred the sidewalks to the multiple flights of stairs present at other properties on the lake. We rented a boat and appreciated the nearby marinas, the jumping bridge, plus the multitude of little coves to explore. The hosts, Steve and Kathy, communicated well before our stay and called to make sure everything was okay during our stay. I would definitely recommend staying at the Lakeside Lodge.

Hanfor Group Reunion

This trip is with a group of guys (6) that have been friends for 60 + years all originally from Michigan. We met for several years with the wives for a yearly reunion. We were very pleased with our stay at Lakeside, just a absolutely beautiful home. Owners were great to work with, the views of the lake, awesome, so much room. Would encourage anyone to come and stay here at Lakeside Lodge.

Everything was good. Plenty of room, exceptional kitchen, equipment & seating. A bit of TV difficulty that was resolved — not normally necessary but it’s football season. Location & boat dock fine. Everything as described. I would recommend!

Didn’t want to leave!

We love Norris Lake and the Lakeside Lodge met our expectations!!! The house had plenty of space to spread out. The covered deck was amazing, the game room served us well with a ping pong tournament and the dock was amazing and spacious for the fishing, swimming and relaxing that we had. The crew caught many fish of all kinds including multiple catfish, bass, and panfish. The swing on the dock allowed some peaceful moments down by the water. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and will likely be back again!

Extremely pleased customer.

The Lodge was absolutely perfect for our family of 13. We had 7 adults, one 8 year old, two 5 year olds, two 2 year olds, and one infant. The Kids Kamp was a huge hit for all our grandkids. Adults had absolutely everything we needed for the house and the lake. Dining table for 16 was huge. Two large outside decks had wonderful views of the lake. Main deck had tables and seating for 18 and comfortable lounge patio seating for 5. Lower deck had a comfortable, huge hammock and a very nice chair and foot support hung from deck above. Kitchen was very well stocked with two refrigerators, two double sinks, large center island, and everything imaginative for the entire kitchen. Hose decoration was very interesting, from the Elk over the fireplace, the large bear in the corner of the living room, animal skins on the wall, to even a small wooden bear carving on a nice light stand. House was clean throughout. Wife says this house was perfect and was overall the best place our family has stayed EVER. Very pleased wife. Only issue we had (and it was extremely small) was the island sink faucet had a small, slow drip near the handle. We simply left a folded paper towel under the handle for the owner to fix in the future. We hope to return for future family vacations.

Beautiful fall foliage lake getaway

We’ve been getting together with our group of friend for the past two years on Norris Lake. This was our first time at this house and loved it. Gorgeous views off the huge back deck, perfect layout for big dinner at the enormous dining room table. We took advantage of the kayaks and enjoyed a serene paddle in the little bay. Great communication with hosts, really appreciated them checking in with us. We plan to be back!
