Family-friendly vacation rentals in Hamblen County

This year was the second year my group and I stayed with Lake Norris Chalets. They were completely painless to work with both years and are very responsive to any questions you may have. Their homes are precisely as described in the descriptions. One huge perk about renting with Lake Norris Chalets, if you are in one of their homes with a dock, and you rent a boat from them they will deliver the boat to the home, fueled up and ready to go. This is a great service that frees up a lot of time you would spend going to the marina, filling out all the paperwork and getting the boat back to your place. I would recommend Lake Norris Chalets time and time again for anyone looking to have a great weekend on the lake!

The property is beautiful! Very spacious and lots of entertainment in the cabin. Host was very accommodating and very fast to respond to all my questions. All attractions are pretty close by and easy to navigate to and from. Lots of local options for grocery and needs. Property is pet friendly and has lots of space outside for them. Wonderful views from the porches! Would definitely recommend to others!

My guests were impressed with my selection! It is good to know this option exists so close to where I live! It is a cute and homey little cottage.

Really felt like being at home, our doggie loved being there too, the hot tub was very relaxing. The back yard is moss covered and a lovely space. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and was really cute. The porch was fun to hang out on. I was able to use the work space to do some charts and some bills (I know - had to bring a little work on vacation). The work space had a multi purpose charging thingy so I bet they have a charger for most any device. You have to go to the Smokey Mountain Diner. The meals were really good. Go hike Max Patch Bald too! I will return here to hot springs to spend some more time.

An Unforgettable Smoky Mountains Cabin Stay! This cabin gave us the *true* Smoky Mountains experience — peaceful, rustic charm with just the right mix of fun extras. From the moment we arrived, the cozy wood interiors, crackling fireplace made it feel like a perfect getaway. What really surprised us (in the best way) were the entertainment options — the retro video games were a nostalgic blast, and once we figured out the power button for the pinball machine (tip: it's right under the game), we were hooked! We also ventured out and loved the local whisky tasting — such a unique touch of Tennessee flavor — and the nearby aquarium was a hit. On top of all that, I accidentally left my curling iron behind and the hosts were kind enough to mail it back to me. Truly above and beyond hospitality. Would absolutely stay here again.

Jeremy and Janie were super responsive from the very start, even while we were just planning our trip. Any questions we had were quickly answered, which made everything so easy. Their place was clean, simple, and beautiful, exactly what we needed. They’ve been some of the best hosts we’ve had, and we’d definitely stay here again on our next trip to Tennessee. Also, no pet fee, which was such a great bonus! Thanks again, Jeremy and Janie! 🙂

I don’t have a great way with words..but all I can say is I couldn’t have asked for a better location or better hosts!

nice place and not to far from all the attractions

Our family very much enjoyed this beautiful and unique property. The peaceful and cozy cabin provided a wonderful place for us to return each day after visiting local family and friends, and we found the time shared with each other around the fireplace was an added bonus. We will return whenever we’re back in Rogersville! A great experience!

My favorite Airbnb yet! It was a perfect blend of old-world rustic with modern high end luxury. Even better than the photo's. Love, Love, love the copper soaking tub. The grounds are beautiful and private, yet downtown Knoxville is less then a 20 min drive. I stayed with my husband, my daughter and our dog. We had a delightful time and all three of us wished we could have stayed longer.

This place is as beautiful as the pics show. The host were excellent to work with. I could ask them anything at anytime and they were happy to help. If you have a boat, there is a place to turn the boat and a dock about 10 min away, we used Indian Creek Dock. The deck is in need of some repair, so just need to watch where you step. The private dock was the best! We enjoyed running and jumping in the water, swimming, and just floating around. The view was my most favorite thing. You could see the lake no matter what room you were in.. It is a lovely place with nice hosts. I highly recommend!

Tammy Jean was very responsive and respectful. Communication was quick and helpful from some small things to helping navigate a closed road. I would recommend this place to stay and very friendly to talk to.

We recently stayed at Paint Rock Farm and it was an enchanting experience. The Glamping Cabins offered cozy accommodations with breathtaking views of Pisgah National Forest. The serene ambiance, pet-friendly atmosphere, and warm hospitality made it unforgettable. The sustainable organic hemp farm and picturesque outdoor event spaces added unique touches. Highly recommend for a remarkable getaway with furry companions. ⛰️🐾♥️👍🏻 We will be back!

We were looking for a place during a cross-country road trip and this fit the bill perfectly. A couple miles off the highway in a quiet neighborhood. The home I was surprisingly large, clean, good space, fast internet. Shopping and restaurants are about a 5 minute drive away. The only issue I would make folks aware of is that if you are traveling with dogs and go walking around the neighborhood, this being a rural area, there are some folks with free roaming dogs nearby and they’re territorial. And there’s a road a block away with no sidewalk and people flying by at high speeds. The yard is decent size, so use that. Alternately, there is a river trail and dog park in town. Kitchen is well stocked with basics, you’ve covered for coffee and basic cooking spices. So overall a great value.

host was warm and welcoming, very communicative and accommodating. Such a great discovery that's very close to our daughter at a nearby university. Will be staying in the future!

There's no place like home.... Except for Davy's! Our five star stay began with Davy being extremely helpful and understanding when our check-in date fluctuated. We approached midnight and into the morning hours traveling to Davy's, and he never once missed a message or had any issues with our ever-changing plans. Upon arrival we were upgraded to the apartment downstairs as he felt the space would be more accommodating for our needs. Throughout our stay Davy and Julie never missed a beat. My husband immediately enjoyed the lake front and it's abundance of food fishing. The canoe on site was just he needed to fully enjoy all Norris lake had to offer. The space was fully equipped with anything and everything we needed in our Month long stay. I enjoyed relaxing in the massage chairs so much so, my husband decided to enjoy them a time or two as well. The sense of home and family we felt at Davy's made us sure to return in the future... Julie and Davy: not only great hosts... now friends

We enjoyed our stay and the setting was very private, peaceful and quiet.

The house was spacious and clean. Loved the views!!! Access to kayaks and paddle boards was a plus!!! The infinity pool was beautiful! We rented a boat and parked right at the dock. It was a wonderful weekend!! Can’t wait to go back Only thing to mention is the doors were a little finicky to lock, but they do lock

We had a great week at this lovely cabin! There was plenty of room for multiple families. I love that each couple had a large room and king-sized bed. This cabin had everything we needed, and we enjoyed the beautiful view. The kids loved running around on all of the decks! It did take a bit to get used to the water. We could tell that it was filtered well but there was a bit of a smell to it. Not a big problem but just bring filtered water.

The place was very nice and very clean. Plenty of room for our family of five. We can’t get over how friendly everyone was. Everyone we passed asked if we were having a good time! We all really enjoyed the waterpark!!

Great cabin perfect for the family! Looking forward to doing it again!
