Norris Paddling Adventures offers a great and fun experience on Norris Lake. The business provides rentals including canoes, kayaks, a tandem kayak, a peddle boat, and a bike, with a variety of devices to choose from. The whole process is very easy, from a simple online booking system to friendly and helpful staff. Reservations are recommended as it is a seasonal adventure. The owner is great to deal with, friendly, awesome, and in communication, offering a briefing, tips on where to go, and help getting started. Rentals allow for exploring the scenic lake, seeing the dam from a different angle, and accessing coves perfect for swimming. The water is clear and refreshing. The equipment is in great shape, with lifejackets provided. It is a highly recommended, family-friendly, and enjoyable way to spend a hot, sunny day, with many customers planning to rent again. The experience is a blast and a memorable day, ideal for a picnic. Some note the presence of other boats can be a little nerve-wracking, but overall it is a fantastic adventure.
Easy rental process and good prices. The owner is very kind and worked to make sure I had a good time. Nice location for paddling as well.

We rented a kayak last Saturday and had a wonderful time on Norris Lake. The owner was extremely helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend.

We had the best time! Such a pretty area, lots of area to explore. I'm with other reviewers- book longer than you think. We did 2 hours and should have planned a full day! It's fun!
