Break Away - NEW Lakefront Modern Farmhouse 6BR-Outdoor Bar and Kitchen
Completed and Finished in October 2021 - Brand New
https://www.facebook.com/BreakAwayNorrisLake
6-bedroom, 5.5-bath, 3400 sf home w/outdoor kitchen and bar, 2-slip dock, private boat ramp, and fire-pit area
This brand new, in October 2021, custom modern farmhouse that sleeps 16 sits on one of the most incredible lots on Lake Norris with beautiful views of Lake Norris. This amazing farmhouse has large bi-parting doors in the great room with a full wall of glass windows providing plenty of sunshine and breathtaking lake views! We are situated in a gated community very close to the famous Cedar Creek Jumping Bridge and Sugar Hollow Marina. We are located in the gated Hidden Springs subdivision, located minutes off the interstate. The custom craftsmanship in our home is something you would see on the show “Fixer Upper”.
Starting outside, this custom home offers many lakefront living options with a wraparound deck on the upper level with both covered and uncovered areas, including an outdoor kitchen and bar area that seats 8 people. Also, this home features a lower level deck across the entire home. Near the water, we have a lakefront fire pit, a hot tub, a 6’ path, a spacious 2-slip dock that was built by Lifetime Docks, the best in the business. Grab your cooler, lifejackets, smiles and head for the water! This lot has an oversized 6’ concrete path to the lake which makes going to and from the lake super easy for the entire family.
The open kitchen is fully equipped to handle any occasion, whether it's an elaborate holiday feast or simply feeding a growing family and keeping the kitchen stocked with all their favorite drinks and snacks – you have all the space you need. The large kitchen table and large island offer the perfect space for your everyday meals, quick snacks, and breakfasts. The adjacent eat-in kitchen is great for sit-down family style dinners, but it is elegantly furnished, making it the perfect setting for even the fanciest occasions.
Vaulted ceiling with barn beams welcome our guest as they enter this open floor plan. Our home is filled with high end finishes including custom built-ins, granite tops throughout, stainless appliances, large ice maker for those coolers, and hardwood floors throughout most of the home. Bedrooms have carpeting for that cozy, at-home feel. Our home also features various area rugs, shiplap accents, well thought-out lighting fixtures and an upper and lower-level living room where the entire crowd can create memories. We want this home to feel like a home, not a rental property!
The views from the bedrooms, great room, lower level living area, kitchen, outdoor bar/kitchen area, and outdoor living areas are truly spectacular and provide a majestic setting for one of nature’s most stunning sites, Norris Lake.
A great feature of this home is that you can enter the gated community and unload your boat at our private boat launch! We built this home in 2021 and will feel like no other property you’ve stayed in - and it is ready to share it with others. Close to other VRBOs if you need additional space! No pets or smoking inside the property.

Bedroom 4 – This bedroom offers 2 full beds with a great lake view and also includes its own private bathroom Bedroom 5 – Another master suite with a king bed also providing lake views and its own private bathroom and patio doors leading to the lower-level deck area.

Our stay was amazing, the house is big and beautiful, and the kitchen is very well equipped with 2 dishwashers and 2 refrigerators. Drinking coffee, looking out that view priceless. Definitely, we will be back.
Beautiful home with awesome views! The home was very nice and had all the amenities you will ever need. The home is modern and located near marinas and the ever popular jumping bridge. The channel was a bit busy for any quiet family time at the dock. There were a few items that could have been a little cleaner, but overall in great shape. Bummer the ice maker did not work while we were there.All in all, the nicest home we have ever rented on Norris Lake!
Norris lake is my favorite vacation, we go every year. The house was perfect for our family. The home was not only beautiful but in the best location. The week was perfect, would stay here again.
The house was great to handle our group. Kitchen was perfect. Bbq area was great. Having a hot tub was a nice perk. The ice maker was another great perk. I have already recommended this house to friends.
This house is perfect! Beautiful home and the best location! The boat dock is so nice and the jet ski ramps are an added bonus! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. Communication from the owner was top notch. The patio views are absolutely amazing! I highly recommend this place and we hope to stay again!
We had a total of 12 adults and 2 kids and this property was perfect for us! The neighborhood was quiet and easy to navigate. The property was very clean and had every appliance you could think of! The hot tub was out of commission, but it didn't ruin the trip. The decks were perfect to sit out on especially while using the outdoor kitchen! We've already rebooked for next year. Can't wait to make more memories here!
This is a fantastic house and by far the nicest we have stayed in our many trips to Norris. Everything from the beds being comfortable to the fully stocked kitchen with double everything. The outside kitchen is awesome with all the seating to be able to grill, talk, and watch all the boats go by. We loved the covered dock for our boats plus there is a double jet ski ramp which was awesome to have with being on a main channel with all the wake. From all the other houses we have stayed at I will have to say it was the easiest walk from dock to house we have had. We would definitely stay here again!
First off: wonderful house, perfect location, responsive host once at property, everything we hoped it would be.
Key positives:
1) Wonderful floor plan for a group our size with different schedules, needs (13 including a 12-month-old, 3 teens and 10 adults) Outdoor spaces awesome
2) Great location close to Sugar Hollow Marina. To rent boats a few just kayaked over. (or 15 to 20 min by road)
3) Walk to dock much shorter and less steep than other houses. Dock great for our 3 kayaks, 1 canoe plus rental pontoon and jet ski
4)Kitchen and eating area well equipped All worked great
However, a few areas for improvement
1) Prior to our stay, communication with the host through the VRBO website was a little slow. In fact, a few days before the trip I had to contact VRBO to get a response and were given phone number to contact host directly That worked great and Chris was pleasant and extremely helpful.
2) Hot tub was not working but was able to contact Chris and he was able to give me simple directions to get it going.
3) One of 2 sinks in Master bathroom had no water. We easily managed with just the one sink but not communicated if that was going to be fixed during our week or not: it wasn't
4) Check-out instructions on handout in house were a little different than in email from host. Not a big deal but a little confusing
Summary: We have been to Norris before, and this was hands down best house we have ever stayed in. Enjoy!
We had a great stay at "Break Away" last week. It is a stunning property that presents itself exactly as pictured in the ad. The location is fantastic and the host (Chris) is super responsive and attentive to guest needs. I especially appreciate the way he accommodated a special request that was important to our family.
A bit more about the property. New, modern home in a gated neighborhood with the best view I've ever seen on Norris Lake. The moment you open the front door your breath will be taken away... the 180 degree view is THAT good. We loved the ice machine, tv's, fast wifi, outdoor grill, hot tub, extra fridges, etc.
Let's talk boat logistics. The road leading to Break Away is paved and well maintained. Getting our 25' boat to the house was stress free. The driveway at the house is unusually flat for a home on Norris Lake. We were able to back our boat into the driveway, and we stored our trailer in the driveway all week (in addition to two other cars). The neighborhood has its own private boat ramp, which is paved and well maintained. We had no issues getting our boat in and out of the water. And the boat ramp is just a few hundred yards from the dock. The dock itself is new and has two slips (no lifts). Bring plenty of dock lines and fenders / inflatable balls to protect your boat when tied up (the channel can get busy).
A bit more about the location. Being so close to Sugar Hollow Marina + Jumping Bridge was great for the family.
We will be back!
The house is located in a very nice neighborhood. It was beautiful and clean. The living area is spacious for a large number of people and the kitchen is well equipped. The master bedroom is large with ample closet space and a large bathroom. The bedrooms in the basement did not have closets, and space for personal things a little scarce, but it did have a nice living room. We loved the water views from the house, and how easily accessible the water is.
We had a wonderful time during our stay. Everything we could have asked for. Property was great. Norris lake area really is unmatched. Owner was timely and accurate with any/all information provided. No complaints from the entire group of 11. Will be booking again when we decide to return!
Great location near jumping bridge and marina with new inflatable water park. Driveway is not steep and a nice wide path to the lake. We had some issues that were addressed quickly by the owner. Communication was very good.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Good location. Layout of house is good. Dock is good. The house needs a complete cleaning. In my opinion the current cleaning is minimal.this may be the result of the short time between checkout and checkin.
Stayed during school break and could not have more thrilled with this home. Easy check-in, clean and double everything, even down to the air fryer!! Host was incredibly helpful with advice on boat rentals and activities around the area.
Beautiful home in a great location right on the water. For the price you pay, I was expecting more cleanliness of the property especially being a newer property. The floors were dirty upon check in and there was dust covering surfaces. The back porch had so many spiders, unfortunately we were not able to use this at night. I understand being lakefront, inspects are part of it but a good quarterly spraying might be recommended to enjoy the outdoors at night.

Liked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy
The layout of the place was great. Nice dock. Good communication with Owner. The refrigerator did not work, the ice machine was broken, the exterior furniture was broken, the LVP was up in the basement, we had to unload the dishwasher and make our own beds. The house could use a once over on cleanliness as well. Premium price should've covered these items. Very busy part of the lake, so if you plan to have a boat at their dock, be mindful it might get beat up by waves.
