About this property

Looking for the perfect escape to unwind, enjoy the outdoors, and spend quality time with family? Look no further than 'Powder Mill Lodge', conveniently located on Norris Lake in LaFollette, TN, near The Greens at Deerfield golf course as well as Springs Dock Marina.

The moment you arrive, the driveway opens up to sprawling views of Norris Lake and the custom Jim Barna log home. Relax on the large deck or venture down the new gently sloped steps with easy to hold handrail to the private dock with plenty of room for hanging out and swimming (one covered slip and two uncovered boat tie up locations available to guests). For travelers interested in a Fall, Winter or Spring stay, we have a concrete walkway (excellent condition) that extends across the red clay shoreline to the dock walkway when the water is at lower levels.

The open concept kitchen makes family dinners a breeze and the lake views make the wine taste that much sweeter. The spacious gathering area gives multiple families ample room, Wi-Fi access keeps you connected, and satellite TV has the kids entertained. As the sun rises, sip on a cup of joe as the fog lifts off the water. You just may see a bald eagle fly by.

At Powder Mill Lodge we take extra steps for your safety and enjoyment. We have the best cleaning team on the lake (see our reviews). The cabin has state of the art water filtering, softening and anti-bacterial technology.

Powder Mill Lodge is located across from Point 11 in deep water, where two coves and the main lake come together allowing for boating, skiing, kayaking, fishing and much more! As the sun sets, return from your last minute boat cruise to a craftsman style grill & smoker for a mouthwatering feast. Dinner settles best under the open sky by the outdoor stone fire-pit with breathtaking views.

This beautiful cabin proved to be very popular in its first five seasons. We carefully consider customer suggestions and often implement corresponding improvements. We are blessed that guests frequently return.

Book Powder Mill Lodge today to make life-long memories tomorrow!

Away from it all !

It was everthing the reviews said it was. Great location! We arrived on Saturday 5/13 the main walkway from dry land to the boat dock had floated out of position ,and neither I nor my wife could reach the dock. I called the owner and he had it repaired that evening!! Plus we found a black rat snake on top of the stacked firewood and the same man who repaired the dock took care of the snake!! I am deathly afraid of snakes! Other than that the week was perfect, we even caught fish!

Norris Lake

Absolutely beautiful! Just stayed for a long weekend but we love it so much we have already booked for a week next summer. Weather was cool but that didn’t stop the kids from swimming and enjoying the kayaks. We can’t wait for next summer when the weather is warmer so we can all enjoy the water! Have rented through VRBO, etc several times but this is our favorite place to stay hands down! Best equipped kitchen we’ve had! Made cooking very easy! With the open floor plan we could all talk and cook at the same time so no one felt left out. The owner answered my many questions in a very timely manner. Very friendly and so easy to talk to! On the trip home today everyone was very excited to be making plans for next year. We go somewhere different every year but this was such a wonderful experience that we all unanimously agreed we’re returning next year and staying in the same place. This is the first time we have ever returned to the same place. The kids are already talking about returning every year! The countdown to Summer, 2024 has begun!

Beautiful September stay

Absolutely stunning! This was a family trip celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary and we couldn’t have been more pleased! The property was clean and comfortable and had a spectacular view of the lake! The place looked just as if not better than the online pictures and Gerry was great to work with! This was our first visit and we will definitely be back! Thank you for sharing your beautiful place with us!

Beautiful!

We’d stayed with our 4 young adult children for the week. The cabin was immaculate! The cleanest rental we have stayed in. Everything you need is right there! The view of the lake is amazing! We rented a boat, went tubing, got jet skis and had so much fun exploring all the different areas of Norris Lake. Many fun family memories were made. The outside steps look intimidating in the photos, but they are not as tough as they look, really wide stairs which is helpful. The town is not super close so we planned out our meals ahead of time and grabbed what we needed at the grocery stores before we headed to the cabin. Worked out great! Gerry was so easy to work with, super communicative and informative. Overall wonderful experience!

About the host

Hosted by Gerry Otto Sr

Our family has been fishing and boating on Norris Lake for over 30 years. Grandpa, "The Legend", was a popular fishing guide out of Springs Dock. Grandma loved taking the family out on the pontoon boat to meet up with friends at Debbie's cove. We learned time on Norris is all about making magical memories. We purchased Powder Mill Lodge in 2018 with the goal of providing customers with a beautiful setting to make their own lifelong stories.

Why they chose this property

Powder Mill Lodge is a beautiful log house with some of the best views on Norris. While nestled in a private setting, it is close to both a popular marina and beautiful golf course. Also, for Powder Mill Lodge guests interested in going on a fishing trip, we have arranged for a professional fishing guide to pick up and drop off at Powder Mill Lodge dock and to offer a discount.
