Jacksboro, Tennessee
Built in 2019, FirstTraxLodge is like no other property on Norris Lake because of its OUTDOOR kitchen / OUTDOOR dining / OUTDOOR lounge areas. A true paradise, to create family memories, that will set the bar and last a life time!
Lake life is ALL about being OUTSIDE regardless of the weather. If a "Rain delay" occurs, you won't have to be trapped indoors, as FirstTraxLodge offers two incredibly large comfortable decks. Both decks are well protected from the elements, allowing you to enjoy the fresh outdoors, rain or shine - night or day. Additionally, a hanging twin bed is located on the lake-level deck, which is perfect for that afternoon nap or a full-nights sleep, while listening to the lake - the best alarm clock is the belly flop, of a Striper Bass, which routinely patrol the boat dock. The main level deck features an "Outdoor living area" w full kitchen (EVO cooking stone - built-in BLAZE "Commercial" natural gas grill, sink, two refrigerators), Dining area with a Sassafras table that seats 12 and a island that seats four. The "Lounge" has a comfortable sectional couch with a 65" smart TV located above the fireplace.
"First TRAX Lodge" is 3,400 sq ft w a "Lodge" feel from its handcrafted Amish pine bed frames, pine ceiling w Red Oak Hardwood flooring.
HOME comforts include: A bidet in the Master Bath, four full bathrooms, cathedral pine ceiling, canoe chandelier, three fully covered decks (One on street side and Two on Lakeside), TREX decking (No splinters), granite counter tops, whiskey barrel table autographed at Bourbon 30 distillery, beautiful view of Big Creek with TVA land on opposite side (Awesome views of wildlife - BRING your binoculars).
When we built First Trax Lodge, we placed it as close to the water, as legally allowed, resulting in a SHORT walk from lake. You and your crew will not have to endure a steep mountain hike after a great day on the water!
You will have access to a commercial ice machine that can make 100 pounds of ice per day, so you don't have to purchase melted marina ice.
There is a concrete walkway to the dock. To access the concrete walkway, there are one of two exits off the bottom deck. One large set of stairs in the middle of the deck, offering direct access to the dock, the other located on the side, as you walk down the stairs from the upper, outdoor kitchen area.
The two story dock offers: Dock-age for FOUR boats w two boat slips fully covered / Power outputs / Four outdoor speakers w Bluetooth connectivity / 2,300 Sq Foot with 1,152 sq ft upper deck - gather place - sun deck - morning workout area / Brazilian Hardwood decking which is soft on the feet / Completely finished ceiling to prevent birds from nesting above your boat, you know what that means - NO BIRD DROPPINGS / Gutters and downspouts.
Misc comforts include: 60 yards of "Stabilized" shoreline with brand new Rip Rap Limestone (For crystal clear water) / Quiet peaceful neighborhood.
There are (3) 65", (1) 49" and (1) 32" 4K Smart TV's at the Lodge, for you to enjoy a good game, movie or let the kids plug in their gaming devices.
Located near Knoxville and proximity to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, offer a wide variety of vacation attractions.

Thank you Tom and Beth for a wonderful lake week in your beautiful home. This is our 10th year vacationing at Norris and this home is one of the best on the lake! The dock is equipped with all you need and set back in the cove to provide for great swimming. We loved the outdoor kitchen and sitting area, lots of yummy meals on the grill and Evo:). This Buckeye family will be back again!
We had a great week with quick access to the water and then just hanging out on the porch in the evening! Great vacation!
Everything was just as described. Definitely a five star stay.

This home sits on an unbelievable high perched lakefront site and has a very private yard and dock area. Our family hosted a family reunion with children and grandchildren from 4 states and this home was the perfect place. It was clean and very well stocked with everything that one could ever need. But most of all it was the atmosphere. A gorgeous home well appointed and furnished but very comfortable and homey, a real family vibe for sure. Tom and Beth were incredible hosts. They provide a tremendous amount of helpful information about the house and the various marinas restaurants and sights to see. We've never had such thoughtful and helpful hosts. This is a special place you won't be disappointed, book it today and you'll agree.
We had such an amazing and relaxing vacation. The water was beautiful and the house was great.
Great location on the lake and fabulous outdoor kitchen/entertaining space.
This is the second time we have stayed at First Trax Lodge and we came back because it is a perfect home on a perfect lot with a gentle slope to a dock that is perfect for boating, swimming and relaxing on the perfect, clean, smooth part of Norris Lake. The Traxler’s are awesome hosts!
4th trip to Norris lake and by far our favorite property. The location is amazing. On a small cove but close enough to the bigger channels to get to other parts of the lake. Great dock area to swim, float, sun tan on top, jump off top etc. Very nice deck furniture as well. The house is well appointed and is kept in very good shape. Felt like we were at home. It was very clean, spacious, very nice kitchen both inside and out! The outside kitchen is great for groups, cooking on the EVO is awesome and outside grill. The porch area is beautiful and plenty of furniture for lounging, watching TV, reading a book etc. The walk down to the lake is not bad compared to many at Norris, just a small stroll down a path. Will definitely come back and appreciate all the extra the owners do to make your stay all the more special.
We have had multiple trips to First Trax Lodge. Never disappoints.
We had an outstanding time. The house was exactly as portrayed in listing. Working with Tom through the process was extremely easy. I can’t recommend staying at this location enough.
We will be back Amazing!!
The house has everything you could possibly need to enjoy a vacation on Norris Lake! The location on the lake is perfect too.
We had a wonderful week at Norris Lake with our family from ages 2-86! The lake house had everything we needed and more! The outdoor kitchen was a hit with my father in law who cooked for us all week! We spent a lot of time on the dock and back deck of the house. Plenty of space to spread out and enjoy for our group of ten plus a 2 year old! Thank you!
Our second stay at First Trax lodge and it was better than the first! The property is in tip-top shape, impeccably maintained, super clean, and well suited for maximum lake enjoyment. The owners have continued to improve on greatness with some awesome furniture additions to the dock and a light on the water that draws the fish in at night. The outdoor porch remains the best spot we've found for morning coffee and a monster breakfast is all too easy on the outdoor kitchen with the grilles they have. It remains the only rental on Norris that we've had where we could use the boat lift, which is totally amazing and greatly appreciated when I had to swap the prop on my boat. Everyone loves floating by the dock and jumping since it's calm there. I appreciate the short walk up to the home and not a thousand stairs. We never turned the TV on, but they have awesome cable and super fast wi-fi which is important for me to stay up with work. I can't say enough good things about the owners and about the condition they keep the property in year-round. This is the best spot on the lake, we fell in love with it after last season's stay here and bought a lot just a few hundred feet away. Great Job Tom and Beth, you guys rock!
