Lakeside Lookout has superb views of Norris Lake, a loft, and its own dock!

The Lakeside Lookout is an efficiency cottage on Norris Lake that gives you stunning views from its kitchen and deck. Entering the Lookout, you step onto new slate flooring and then onto the new luxury vinyl planking in the main living area. The main room has an overstuffed leather sofa, rocking chair, a 50" HDTV, and a DVD player. A king-sized bed, dresser, and closet are at the end of the spacious main room. A ladder takes you up to the loft to a queen bed and a bird's-eye view of the room below. Outside, a short walk down the paved sidewalk takes you to your own private dock and swimming platform.

The Lookout has a completely furnished kitchen with a full-sized dishwasher, side-by-side refrigerator, stove, microwave, sink, drawers, cabinets, pantry, and a table for four. It also has a full bathroom with a toilet, sink, and tub/shower. Its deck sports a new gas grill, a prep table, a new dining table, and four new chairs.

The Lookout has a sleeping capacity of four and is a perfect rental partner with the Lakeside Lodge, the big lodge on the same property, VRBO Property No. 1692559. Together with the Lodge's sleeping capacity of twenty, the Lookout can extend the sleeping capacity of your group to 24 people.

OTHER AMENITIES: Easy parking with a big parking lot for your vehicle and boat trailer. The Lookout provides pots and pans, cooking, serving, and eating utensils, a hair dryer, hangers, a telephone land line, linens for each bed, a fire detector, and a fire extinguisher. The cottage has air conditioning throughout its 880 square feet and sleeps a maximum of 4 people.

The Lookout is pet-free and non-smoking. You may rent it for a minimum of three days from mid-August to June, and if you rent for six days, you receive the seventh day free. From June to mid-August, you may rent it for seven days, Saturday to Saturday.

The Lodge is part of Deerfield Resort, an exclusive, secluded area nestled between the Cumberland Mountains and the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains. As our guest, you have free use of the community swimming pool, tennis courts, and playgrounds. You may also patronize Deerfield’s 18-hole golf course, private airstrip, two restaurants, marina, and tiki bar. Deerfield Resort is about 35 miles south of the Kentucky border, eleven miles from La Follette, and 30 miles north of Knoxville.

And Norris Lake has it all. Its beautiful, blue-green waters cover 34,000 acres and span over 800 miles of shoreline. The clear, pristine waters of the Clinch and the Powell Rivers provide endless opportunities for recreation – including swimming, bridge-jumping, rope swinging, boating, water skiing, wake boarding, knee boarding, tubing, jet skiing, jet boarding, hydro-biking, kayaking, fishing, and charter fishing. Around the lake, you’ll also find great places for ATV riding, horseback riding, biking, and hiking. It's the ideal place for vacationers and sports enthusiasts!

Wonderful property
The views are so beautiful from the outside of the Lakeside Lookout. Upon opening the door it was obvious that Steven and Kathy really care about so many details. Everything was clean, comfortable and well equipped. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We spent a lot of time on the dock and swimming in the beautiful water. It was a little tricky getting from the bottom of the steps to the dock, but we got better at it each time. We would definitely stay again and have already recommended it to friends.

Great place for 2 people. Having a boat was great, but parking the trailer was a little tricky. I recommend working this out with the marina beforehand. If the walk down to the dock is troublesome, you can also keep the boat at a dock at the marina for a fee. Great option if needed. Washer and Dryer would have been awesome, but easy to deal with enough swim suits!

Beautiful and Peaceful Get Away
The Lakeside Lookout is a very quaint, cozy home in the woods. If you want to get away (with minimal cell service :-) ) and get unplugged, this is it! Gorgeous views of the lake. Great hiking all around or just walk the property. Kathy was very helpful and sweet in answering any questions you may have. A very cute, clean and well furnished home. Don't forget anything you want to take! It's out there!:-) But, civilization is only 30 minutes away. If you're a hiker, try "Little Egypt" to the highest point in Campbell County! I think the locals keep that one a little secret! Will return one day!

Much needed break!
Just what we needed! Seclusion quiet nestled in the woods on the lake! What more could you need? We enjoyed the beautiful clear water and relaxed in the guest house and star gazed! Thanks for the great stay! Yes the walk to the water is steep I make the treck a few times, but well worth the seclusion on the dock!

Wonderful stay!
Property was great! View was amazing! Owners were very responsive. The only downside was the hill down to the lake. It is very steep coining back up. It was a little difficult for those of us not in the best shape 😀

Simple and Cozy
We are definitely coming back for another visit. The lake is perfect but the water was super low, which is out of anyones control. Everything we needed was available. There was a minor hiccup in a representation of the property but when addressed, via email, there was a quick response, resolve and offer of inconvenience reimbursement. There is also a slight upgrade, as the photos show the Lookout is carpeted, but now has nice flooring, which I absolutely loved !! I would just recommend getting everything you need before you get to the cabin. The closest supermarket is around 30 minutes away. There is a very convenient Deli just outside the community entrance that offers the little things you may need. We are so happy with the stay, I am ready for our summer trip and taking the kayaks out !

Comfortable getaway with a nice view
The few days my wife and I spent at the lookout we're perfect. It's a comfortable space with all the essentials (plenty of cooking equipment and amenities) and a great view down over the Lake Norris river extensions. Communication with the property owner was excellent and reassuring. Would love to visit again!
