The dream of the fields
in 1985, Paul Fields embarked on a visionary journey that would forever transform the landscape of Norris Lake. With unwavering determination, he purchased a magnificent 1000-acre peninsula of prime lakefront property, christening it Deerfield Resort. From that moment on, Paul's dream flourished, and Deerfield Resort was born.
Nestled just north of Knoxville, Tennessee, Deerfield Resort stands as a testament to Paul's vision and passion. Conveniently situated 15 miles off I-75, it's easily accessible via exits 134 at Caryville and 160 at Jellico, TN. This exclusive gated residential community graces the picturesque shores of Norris Lake, a boater's paradise boasting over 800 miles of pristine shoreline and deep, sparkling waters. Norris Lake finds its home amid the scenic splendor of the Cumberland Mountains and the foothills of the majestic Great Smoky Mountains.
Recognized as one of the South's most renowned lake resorts, Deerfield Resort encompasses an expansive 1200-acre peninsula, extending gracefully into the main channel of Norris Lake, adorned with over 10 miles of shoreline. At the helm of this cherished resort are the Fields family members: Paul and Madeline, their son Scott, daughter Paula, and son-in-law Marc Le Jeune. The family's unwavering dedication is evident in every aspect of Deerfield Resort, fostering a warm and welcoming environment.
Deerfield Resort stands as the largest resort on Norris Lake, serving as a testament to the enduring passion and commitment of the Fields family. Notably, Paul's brother Jim, along with his wife Diane and son Kevin, oversee The Greens at Deerfield Golf Course and The Greens Grill, adding another layer of excellence to the resort's offerings.
At Deerfield Resort, family is at the heart of everything. The Fields families proudly call Deerfield their home, immersing themselves in the resort's vibrant community. Always ready to extend a warm welcome, they eagerly embrace every opportunity to assist both owners and visitors alike.
