Andersonville, Tennessee
Welcome to Owl House on Norris Lake!
We invite you to visit our charming lakeview cottage. Owl House is named for the barred owl that my children & I have been amazed to see hunting in the yard. If you sit quietly on the screened porch at dusk, you’ll have a good chance of seeing the owl too!
In September 2022, we upgraded the AC/heat to a mini split HVAC unit. This unit serves all rooms except for the sleeping porch which has natural heat and cooling.
The cottage is located on Persimmon Road. Lake access is available within a 5 minute walk (you can also drive). Sequoyah Marina is the closest boat launch and Anderson County Park is nearby as well.
Owl House was originally an Alphabet House built at Oak Ridge. We guess it moved to Persimmon Road in the 1950s and some modifications were made, including raising the ceilings and adding 2 porches and a deck.
Norris Lake was the first TVA lake, the dam was completed in 1936. The lake has over 800 miles of shoreline and almost 34000 acres surface area at full pond level. It’s formed by the Clinch & Powell Rivers and is considered one of the cleanest TVA lakes. Contact us for weekly or monthly rates.

Just want to say wow ? this location is amazing. We drove from Tampa bay to Norris and so was worth it!!!! Charles was amazing great communication , everything you need to enjoy the simple things in life to get away from the chaos of the world this lovely cabin has it all ?. While we stayed there the weather wasn’t perfection but better then the norm for us. We woke up to deer wandering in the yard, howling of coyotes at night and eagles ? screaming in the afternoon, if that isn’t saying enough well then stay away. I give this cabin 10 stars ⭐️ . Thank you Charles for our wonderful stay you have a wonderful piece of heaven there on the lake . Highly recommend ???❤️
Enjoyed the proximity to the lake and the privacy
Had a wonderful relaxing vacation on the water. Great little cabin and super close to the marina.
This is a sweet property setting .Loved the nature feel. Lots of birds to hear on the wonderful screened in porch. This is a great place for family . We enjoyed each night playing board games with kids. Host was great meet any needs.
We have stayed here multiple times. I always look forward to sleeping in the outdoor room. Our group loves sitting on the screened in porch. The neighborhood is fantastic for taking a walk. Loads of deer every night. Only upgrade I want to see is a small shade for the far right window of the outdoor bedroom to block the street light one road away. It’s our annual place to stay at the lake. Great get away.
The cottage is old with cool history!!! It is very airy like sleeping outdoors but out of the elements! Everything is there that you need- chairs, laundry, water toys, awesome screened in porch. Walking distance to marina and water (bring beach shoes for stones) beautiful waters though!! The owners communication is the best I have ever come across in all my rentals!!
We stayed at the Owl House last weekend while we were in town for a wedding. We really enjoyed it! Owner was spot-on on the description. My husband and I slept on the king bed on the covered screened porch. It was so relaxing and enjoyed it very much! It brought me back to my childhood when I used to visit my grandparent's river house as a child! The Owl House is a true treasure!
Was a great place to stay for a few days of fishing and relaxing.
My stay was relaxing and perfect for a weekend getaway!
First, the “headline read Cabin ON Norris Kake. In fact the cabinwas Not on the lake, across he road from he lake He describing Al’s referred to a “view” of the lake bu this was deception even also because there we so many trees across the street that it onl allowed for “peek a boo” tiny view. There was not a working air conditioner, it was on the ; the overhead fan would only work on slow speed and rhe third fan would not work at all. This was particularly important because the master room was particularly important because it was very warm outside. There was also a screen that had come loose and needed repair which allowed for bugs to come in. My daughter was bitten by something during the night. The running water was not clear and was milky looking. So we bought bottled water; if there was a reasonabl explanation, the owner should have alerted the guests. Also there was a large concrete slab between the kitchen and living room which was ugly and made no sense; it was there in the middle of regular flooring. Every
Enjoyed our stay in this charming country cottage. The house is old, but definitely adds to its character. Easy to come & go to Sequoyah Marina where we rented our boat. Screened in porch bedroom is just like glancing. ?
Needed more secure locks. Better curtains not see threw. But owner provided everything one would need. Clean nice decks. I would do again.
