Highly Recommend! Family-friendly! Place a reservation and its ready when you arrive!There was a bit of a risk of rain and John was in communication with us the evening before to keep a watch on the weather, but the morning of the weather was perfect so we were good to go! We rented the peddle boat and adult kayak, but when we got to the location we realized that we wouldn't need the kayak and John so kindly removed it from our reservation. We had an absolute blast with our three children peddling around the lake. There are two coves that are close to the marina that were perfect for us. We enjoyed lots of swimming and a picnic on the shore. John also helped us get our kids into our two personal child-size kayaks so that we were all ready to depart from his dock. We couldn't have asked for a better day! We are so thankful for all the help John offered and we will definitely be back in the future!

My family came to visit while I’m here working. Loved it. We rented the bike, kayak and tandem. Very enjoyable and easy to book and find. We did book online as its a seasonal adventure. Also a holiday weekend we went. But the staff were very friendly and told us where to go to get out and swim. The water was clear and refreshing. Everyone had a great time. Also liked the variety of devices to choose. The kids loved switching up. Thank you for a memorable day.

Nice set up. Does require reservations, especially in the middle of the week. No staff just waiting for a prospective customer.Hydro bikes were in good condition and clean. Two hours gave us time to paddle several miles and picnic. Clean water, so regret we didn’t have longer to swim.

Wow! What a beautiful, clean lake! I loved kayaking at Lake Norris and will definitely be back. The kayak rental was seamless and friendly. It all made for a great day! If you're thinking about visiting Norris Paddling Adventures, stop thinking and go do it!

John had the hydro-bikes set up and ready to go for my niece and me. The bikes were in good shape, and are stable enough to use as a swim platform. Be prepared for a nice workout with much greater speed than any paddleboat! Thanks for the great experience, John. I'll rent again for sure!

We had a great experience renting a peddleboat! We weren't familiar with the area but the staff provided great recommendations for coves to check out on the lake. He even recommended some hiking locations close to where we were staying. Very knowledgeable and definitely a highlight of our trip, would love to come back and try the other watercraft options!

A great place to rent any watercraft to play in the water. The staff is very nice and helpful too. Their prices are very reasonable as well. They make you fill out the paperwork first and they keep your driver license. Once you are done with playing your watercraft, you then return it to them, then they will return your driver license and charge on your credit card on file. They charge by the hour. Different watercraft has different prices. During busy season, it's better to call ahead and reserve in advance.

Came to paddle board at Norris since I had so much fun last year. Website says opens at 12. Get there and it’s closed. Call the number and the guy is terribly rude and says he won’t be opening the Norris location till 3. Very disappointing

First time visiting Norris Paddling Adventures, and it was fun! My wife wanted to try a sit-on-top kayak as a possible new hobby, and John (the owner) convinced me to take out one of the paddle bikes. I have to say, I really enjoyed the bike! The owner is chill and helpful and it was a fun morning on the water. Will be back, thanks!
