Norris Lodging

Heading down this Thanksgiving. Will be using the Anderson County Park ramp.

There is a tourism bureau for Norris Lake online. Booking.com also covers the area around LaFol!ettw, TN. Accommodations can be found at either.

If using AC Park, I would look around the Clinton/Norris exit of I75. Believe it's exit 122. Have a good trip.

Ok, thanks. Wasn’t sure how far the ramp would be from 75 time wise.

May want to check out the Hickory Star boat ramp...they have rooms there I believe too....believe restaurant may be closed. But not to far to grits.

Definitely Norris/Clinton exit. Plenty of hotels and places to eat. Ramp is 15 minutes away.

If you decide to stay at Hickory Star they are located mid lake lots of good fishing in that area. There are several restaurants located within an 10 minute drive.

Okay, so the trip to Norris was good. Fishing was a grind, day 1 had 13 smallies with two keepers . Day 2 had 12 smallies with 2 keepers. Day 3 (Sunday) only had 3 fish, zero keepers LOL. Water temps 59-62, clear water. Caught most of the fish and all the keepers Damiki Rigs in 20-25’ of water off main lake points. Secondary bait was a green pumpkin Ned rig. Had better luck on the Powell side. Just an FYI for anyone going. Again, thanks for the info, will be fishing the BFL there in Feb and needing to learn the lake. Hopefully making a few trips there before then.
