Lakeside Lodge – Private Dock, Hot Tub, Fire Pit & 8 Kayaks
Gather with family and friends at Lakeside Lodge, a spacious lakefront retreat on Norris Lake. With room for up to 20 guests, this peaceful cabin features a private dock, hot tub, fire pit, and eight kayaks for exploring the calm, no-wake cove. Less than half a mile from Flat Hollow Marina, it’s the perfect blend of comfort, adventure, and laid-back lake living.
Relax and unwind at Lakeside Lodge, a 6-bedroom, 4-bath lakefront retreat designed for families and groups. With space for up to 20 guests, this spacious home sits in a peaceful, low-traffic no-wake cove where the water stays calm and quiet, perfect for swimming, kayaking, and floating the day away.
Less than half a mile from Flat Hollow Marina and about 12 miles from the Tackett Creek ATV trail system, Lakeside Lodge offers the best of both worlds: easy water access and nearby land adventures. Across the cove lies Overlook Bay and more than 10,000 acres of TVA land, and just around the bend is the Chuck Swan Wildlife Preserve, where deer, wild turkey, foxes, and bald eagles are often spotted.
Down the stairs is your private dock, complete with a covered boat slip, swim platform with ladder access, and two jet-ski ports. Eight kayaks are available for guests to explore the peaceful cove, and when the day winds down, there’s no better place to be than in the hot tub, around the fire pit, or gathered at the granite fire table on the lower deck. Three full-width decks offer a mix of sun and shade so everyone can relax their way.
Inside, the main level features 23-foot ceilings, a cozy gas fireplace, Smart TV, and a kitchen equipped for group meals. You’ll find a full-size refrigerator on the main level, a second refrigerator and high-capacity ice machine on the lower level, and a large dining table for ten with extra seating just outside on the upper deck overlooking the water.
Sleeping arrangements are ideal for families and friends: a king suite on the main floor, two queen bedrooms (one with bunk beds) and a full loft upstairs, plus a queen suite and bunk room on the lower level. Three roll-away beds are available for added flexibility. Every bedroom, including the loft, has a Smart TV.
The lower-level rec room brings everyone together and offers rainy-day fun with an arcade console, Smart TV, and board games. Guests also enjoy practical comforts like a washer and dryer, dual-zone HVAC, Keurig and drip coffee makers, and free Starlink Wi-Fi (satellite-based, reliable but may be slower at times).
Bring your own boat or wave runners, or take advantage of our seasonal tritoon and jet ski rentals, which include life jackets. Tube rentals are also available for an additional fee. When renting directly from us, your watercraft can be delivered to Flat Hollow Marina at no charge, or directly to your dock for an added delivery fee.

Misleading answer/disappointing stay
Our family time at Lakeside Lodge had several disappointing aspects.
1. We visited the property we reserved in early March as we wanted to check it out before our June rental. We saw numerous houseboats and texted Tom to ask about them. He replied that they would be gone by early April.
They most definitely were not!! There was a huge blue houseboat directly across from our dock and there were at least 20-25 others between us and the marina. We felt very misled!! It looked like a trailer park on water and NOT attractive at all. We have stayed for the last 3 summers on Lake Lure and we will definitely be back there next year- NOT interested in another stay with so many houseboats!!
2. Our cabin had apparently been painted the day before we arrived as there was a "wet paint" sign on the porch post as we arrived. The deck chairs were all stacked up on the front porch and the middle deck on top of the hot tub which were difficult to get back down. There were 2 big outside trashcans in the lower den, along with an outside bench that took 2 of us to get back outside. Also, the painters must have smoked a LOT because there were dirty ash trays on the bottom deck and the table looked like it had not been washed in months. I took a picture of the nasty paper towels I used to clean them up but can't figure out how to add them here. The deck cushions didn't look like they had been wiped down in months.
3. Dock area had 5 big tree size logs floating around-very unattractive!!
Wonderful place for a large family to have a great reunion. The owner is very attentive and answers very quickly. The area is beautiful with lots of outside activities in the area. He provides kayaks for adults and children. This is a must stay place.
The cabin was in tip top shape for our stay. We had a group of 20 for a long weekend and we would definitely rent this cabin again. We also rented 2 boats from Tom, the owner who was extremely accommodating and responsive through the entire booking and during our stay.
Kayaks, cornhole and a ton of other things were included which is a great bonus. House was excellent for our large family.

lakeside lodge
this was an awesome place to stay. there was plenty of room for all 14 of us. the kitchen was very well stocked with everything you needed. plenty of towels, movies, games. great covered dock with picnic table. we had a great time and would go back there again
The property was described accurately. The kids had a great time fishing off the dock and playing the video games. I loved the tranquility of the mornings on the deck with coffee. Would highly recommend.

Great House
Your house is fantastic! We had a wonderful family vacation. The house was spacious, clean and well stocked with essentials. Stairs going down to the lake are a little tough but then again, we’re old - LOL. Thank you Tom, for making our annual family get together a very successful get together.

Great view
The place had a great view and sitting inside worked great for our group. We wish the kitchen was a little bigger. Also one of the downstairs room did not have the extra bed in it.
We have stayed at this home twice now and have had the best time!
We love the dock, kayaks, sitting by the fire pit and relaxing in the hot tub under the stars!
Location to the marina was perfect, although having two refrigerators plus a commercial ice maker meant that we didn’t need to get much of anything (except gas for the boat and jet ski we rented).
Our kids loved boating and fishing during the day and at night they enjoyed playing Nintendo and watching the selection of family movies that were offered.
We definitely recommend this vacation home and would stay here again and again!
This home was Amazing! Our family Loved it! 14 of us were more than comfortable..plenty of room for us to spread out! Well stocked with everything you need for a vacation home. The Kayaks were a huge hit with our grandkids...Even our adult kids enjoyed them. Definitely got our workout with the steps! Tom was very helpful and gave valuable information when asked. I would highly recommend this home!
Our family of 17 had an awesome, comfortable stay! Everything was so beautifully decorated for Christmas, and the owner even stopped by to give us a poinsettia! THANK YOU! Just wished I could have gotten it home, but our car was too small and packed :(
The house was very clean, very well stocked, had TONS of amenities, the owner was very responsive, and it had a winter cozy cabin feel! We would definitely stay there again! Our family truly enjoyed our Christmas vacation!
The home was very clean and comfortable. We had 18 for Thanksgiving dinner and had plenty of place settings and silverware but no platters or serving pieces. Overall, the kitchen was well equipped and stocked. Our family enjoyed the home inside and outside, especially the kayaks. Tom was very communicative and responsive when we made reservations, planned our trip, and stayed at his house. The only downside was the steep gravel access.
This home was huge, w 6 bedrooms and 2 gathering places, a large dining table and 4 bathrooms. The kitchen was so well supplied and all the beds were comfortable. There were lots of towels and a washer and dryer. There are 2 decks and a functioning hot tub ( this usually is not the case at places we have stayed). We enjoyed the gas fire pit and there is a wood fire pit too. Being right on the water, we enjoyed swimming in the lake and boating ( they have a boat slip and rent boats and jet ski). The owner communicated w us immediately when we needed information and was kind and generous in every way. We will be back!

Outstanding!
Our group of 13 women stayed in this beautiful lodge recently. I was so impressed with the amount of space we all had and the cleanliness of the home. Due to some irresponsible renters the week before us, the owner had to replace several key items and re-landscape right before our stay, but we never would have known- the property and house were in perfect condition when we arrived. I was so impressed with his prompt attention and the ease of communication with the owner. The house has a dock which is close to the marina where we rented a pontoon and spent a day on the beautiful water. The fire pit, hot tub, and multiple decks made for the most perfect girls weekend! I hope the occasion arrises to rent from this owner again!
We loved Lake Norris and enjoyed our stay at Lakeside Lodge
Lakeside Lodge was very easy to find, along with the recommended grocery stop. There were enough parking spaces right at the house for our 5 vehicles. Our family had 10 adults, and 7 children, including 3 teenagers. The 15 year old loved having his own space in the loft bedroom. We couldn’t have done this smoothly without the 2 refrigerators, ice machine, plenty of provided towels, washer/dryer, large grill and fully stocked kitchen (crockpots for chicken taco night!). The “boat captain” loved the covered boat slip and there is also parking for 2 jet skis. Everyone spent plenty of time at the dock, swimming, fishing and boarding the boat for tubing! There are 3 flights of steps from the water to the house, but are completely doable. I have double hip replacements and used the steps 4-5 times daily! We loved the fire table/hot tub deck with plenty of seating, and the 8 kayaks! We roasted our marshmallows for s’mores at the fire pit. Bonuses were the table top video game, cornhole area, picnic table on the dock, and a crawl space with extra “toys”.
We had a great renting experience. The property owner was always quick to answer any questions we had and I felt like there were so many things to do at the house. There was a great, clean hot tub, the gaming system downstairs, board games, and even some outside games like corn hole. We had a great time and couldn’t have asked for better!
This property worked excellently for a family reunion/vacation. The number of rooms and bathrooms were great and all in clean shape. The kitchen is well stocked which made cooking for a large group easier. We absolutely loved the kayaks! The lake is wonderful and so relaxing. Many of us enjoyed our morning coffee on the deck with peaceful views.
The lake was so peaceful during the day and even a beautiful sight at night either by the fire or in the hot tub! Plenty of games for entertainment and easy location to find.
