Full pool and beyond!
I love Norris Lake when it is at full pool - 1020 ft above sea level. We are on a deep year round cove and, in the winter, we can see a rocky shoreline as the lake recedes. I never realized how much I miss the lake lapping at the bottom of the lot's shoreline ...

Dress Defensively
Had some folks from the sunny shores of Florida up here last week on an 80 degree sunny day that interspersed itself between all the stormy days . They were here to see lots. I always recommend walking as much of a property as is possible.......the only real ...

Good news / Bad news!

Storm damage
I was mistaken about the Easter storms when I indicated that not much happened around the lake outside of lightning and a little thunder. Lightning apparently hit a home in Lone Mountain Shores, traveling down the chimney and starting a fire in the basement. ...

Perfect day on Norris Lake
With a blue sky, bright sun and temps up in the mid 70's it was a terrific day to be on Norris Lake. Not that I actually got ON the lake...nope. I started the day by being productive....fertilizing the flower beds and pulling weeds. But the wind was blowing ...

Norris Lake - March 30, 2009
Buyers have started coming back to Norris Lake now that the weather is warmer. My weekends and many weekdays are spent showing off this jewel of a lake to folks who "ain't from 'round here". Although most people prefer to come to the lake ...
