Breathtaking 4 BDR Mountain Lake Retreat

Great getaway with four bedrooms and a great view with an outdoor gas fireplace on the main level. The house has everything you need to enjoy your solitude near beautiful Norris Lake: mountain and lake views, gas stone-fireplaces, Amish rocking chairs on wrap around porch, leather couch and granite countertops, comfortable loft and peaceful scenery. Hand-hewn timbers are the structural bones of this luxurious cabin. Providing a sense of safety and security.

My three story log and stone cabin located in Rock Harbor, has breathtaking views of Norris Lake and the Cumberland Mountains. The wrap around porch, lake and mountain vistas, hummingbirds, wild turkey, deer and occasional bald eagle make this a special mountain lake retreat.
Rock Harbor is a private 1000 acre community with a playground, basketball court, covered pavilion with underground utilities and private lake access and marina with nearby boat rentals. The serenity of Norris Lake, one of the 10 largest and cleanest lakes in the US is extraordinary. Lakeside restaurants just a few minutes away by car or boat.

The main level, loft and second level are accessible to guests along with the entire wrap around porch.

If you need any assistance with area attractions I am glad to help.

Another guest: `Wow! This home, neighborhood, views are beautiful! We honestly did not want leave. The deck views and fireflies were amazing. The lake is so beautiful, the water is so clean and clear. The town itself is so cute and everyone is very friendly. Thank you Russ and we will definitely return.` Jennifer June 2022
Just 30 minutes from North Knoxville and 30 minutes south of Lincoln Memorial University, Mountain Lake Retreat in Rock Harbor is also conveniently located only ten minutes to local restaurants, Marinas, attractions and grocery stores.

Woodlake golf course 20 minutes. Easy access to both Knoxville and Smokey Mountain National Park.
Cabin has breathtaking mountain and lake views while less than 2 miles off of main highway south to Knoxville and north to LMU and Cumberland Gap Historical National Park

It was 2016 that I found this incredible custom cabin in the mountains on Norris Lake. It captivated me the moment I stepped onto the wrap around porch and gazed upon the breath taking beauty all around. I enjoy sharing my home.
You might enjoy: Kayaking, canoeing, hiking in the National Park, caving, visiting Knoxville, Lincoln Memorial University or going to Sevier County and Gatlinburg and more. I enjoy photography, biking, kayaking, reading and am passionate about education.

Beautiful Cabin with Fabulous views

This was a great place for our family to stay while visiting my parents on Norris Lake. Lots of room to spread out and a great dining table for family meals and playing games. Beds were comfortable and it was very quiet. Bathrooms had lots of towels The only thing I would have liked to have had was some type of closet/shelves/dressers for our clothing. For longer stays I don’t like living out of a suitcase. All in all it was a wonderful stay.

Family Retreat

Beautiful inside and out. Community is peaceful and a landmark from the lake. We took a boat trip to hwy 33 bridge and back to Cedar Grove Marina. We had a great time with a speed boar rental. Our ancestors came through Claiborne County after the Rev. War. I loved the Cumberland Park history. Great location.

This house was amazing! Russ was great! We rented a pontoon from Cedar Grove Marina and spent a day on Norris Lake. We saw so many deer, and a bear! My brother got engaged on the deck with the smokies in the background. We will definitely be back.

Beautiful home and picturesque view!!!

This home was absolutely perfect for our family's spring break getaway. We had plenty of space, yet enjoyed a lot of time together sitting on the deck and enjoying the view. Just a quick drive to groceries and shopping- yet still enjoying the privacy and solitude of the mountains! House was well appointed, clean and exactly as described/pictured. Can't wait to return to this Tennessee gem!

Great cabin!

This was the best air b and b we have stayed at. Was fully stocked and I love how when guests leave spices etc it didn’t go to waste. Manager was nice and fixed the one issue we had with the grill. The hills to get to location was a bit difficult with a boat but manageable. Parking you can fit 4-6 vehicles. Overall for price and location it’s great!

Beautiful peaceful cabin

The cabin was just as pictured, the surrounding deck with views was amazing. You could watch the fog rise up from the lake every morning while having your coffee. Very well stocked cabin, gorgeous baths, great laundry room with supplies. The beds were a little firm for us, but we’re used to pillow top mattresses. Russ met us at the cabin and was very sweet. He called the marina minutes away from the cabin to be sure we could rent a boat (we got a 15% discount because we were renters with Russ). It you’re looking for quiet peaceful getaway close to Norris Lake away from the craziness of Pigeon Forge, this is it.

First of all, the house was perfect, exactly what we wanted, which was a retreat style house. The view was incredible, and the spaces inside gave us all room to spread out, but also still feel together. I would definitely stay here again.The house was mostly clean, but there were a lot of dust bunnies and some dog hair around. No other complaints, though.The listing stated that the kayaks were at the marina, but they weren't there. Then, when we were on a walk, we saw the kayaks under the porch. Since we didn't have a way to transport them, we couldn't take them out. That was disappointing.Check-in was a bit stressful, because we didn't get any instructions at all, so I tried messaging Russ the morning of our stay, and when I didn't get a response for a few hours, I tried calling him. When he didn't pick up, I called the VRBO customer support, and they were able to get through to him, whereupon we connected, and things went fine from there. Russ was a very nice host, very welcoming and helpful. I just wish the communication had been a little better.There was a dog that was an Australian Shepherd mix that hung around our house the entire week we were there. He was very well-trained and great with the children. We ended up asking around to see if he was an abandoned dog or not, and one of the houses down the road said that they thought he was the farm's dog. Since he was so well-trained, we didn't mind his company (the kids loved it!).Overall positive experience!
