Norris Lake offers beautiful mountain views, peaceful lake scenery and clean, clear, deep water. It abounds in secluded coves. The shoreline includes over 50 miles of islands, numerous picnic areas, caves, cliffs, beaches, and gradual sloping shorelines. Norris Lake is the largest of the TVA lakes and has the highest recreational use of all the TVA lakes. Norris Dam was the first dam built by the TVA. The Lake has over 809 miles of shoreline, totaling over 33,840 acres of surface area. Norris Lake offers 40 public boat launches, 19 marinas and 16 restaurants. Norris Lake is a full recreational lake, allowing jet skis, water skiing, swimming, tubing, boat docks, fishing, and other water activities such as scuba diving. It is a fisherman’s paradise as the lake abounds with many species of fish. The Tennessee state record brown trout was caught in the waters of the Clinch River below Norris Dam in 1988 weighing 28 lbs. 12 oz. There is an abundance of wildlife and flora to be seen along Norris Lake which offers three hiking trails, three state parks, three county parks, and 59 public access sites. And incidentally, Tennessee does not have state income taxes!

The shoreline displays custom built homes, ranging in price from $126,000 to $400,000+ for dockable waterfront lots and lakefront homes. Water access lots and lake view lots range in price from $30,000 to $115,000. Keep in mind that not all communities are dockable, it depends on how the community was sold to the developer. And not all lots are dockable that would normally be. Again it depends on how it was sold from TVA and if there is an archeological and/or environmental impact. The TVA states that if it is sold without a dock permit, to get one before you buy. In addition, you may not own to the water – it depends on how the community was sold from the TVA to the developer. Some communities were sold that the TVA owns to the 1045 elevation line which is 25 feet above normal full pond. Because the lake levels do vary as much as 23 feet, when the lake drops there is about 40 or more feet (with some areas drying up) of mud between the shore line and water line.
