Bachelorette weekend was AMAZING

I had all my closest friends here for my bachelorette and we had the BEST time. Everyone was so stunned at how clean the house was. Seriously I don’t think I would have been able to find any dirt! They let us in a few hours early since we were traveling from Kentucky driveway is definitely steep and a smaller suv had trouble getting up but overall amazing place to stay and amazing resources on the lake!

Annual Family vacation

Southern Breeze is a great property ! Extremely clean, well appointed and well equipped. The two level doc with a slide was fantastic for our boat as well as kids and family enjoyment. The only draw back was the incline of the driveway and path to the lake as it is extremely steep ! Navigable, but a challenge for elderly or small children. But very satisfied overall !

Perfection!

I booked this property at the beginning of the year for a group of girlfriends to have some much needed catch up time! This property was everything I dreamed of for this gathering. Gorgeous views, clean interior, amenities galore and a double decker dock that was absolutely perfect for soaking up sun and laughing with friends! The kitchen is huge and inviting, the deck was great for early morning coffee and late night beverages. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we are already talking about coming back! The reviews about the steep driveway are accurate but no one had any issues getting in or out. I have no negative feedback. Amy and Ed are crushing the vacation rental game! Thanks for providing us with a beautiful space to make memories.

Beautiful House / Extremely Steep driveway

House was wonderful. Driveway not so much. I have seen the other reviews mentioning the steep driveway and did not think much of it. Only vehicle that we had that could handle the driveway with ease had all wheel drive. My new mini van could not make it up without spinning the tires going forward, had to back up in order to get out. When time to leave we used the AWD vehicle to move the gear and people. Driveway is not easy for the elderly walking up or down. The house itself was well equipped, very clean and very comfortable for our group of 16. We spent Thanksgiving weekend at the house - The Dual Ovens, Dual Dishwashers, and Dual Refrigerators were a definite plus. I would consider staying here again, but bring AWD vehicle.

Beautiful Lake Home

My siblings and our spouses all stayed at the lake house for our yearly vacation together. The house is big and very nice!! Loved the two levels of decks overlooking the lake. The kitchen is BIG with two dishwashers, two ovens, and more than enough tableware!! The tables (inside and out) were more than big enough for the 8 of us!! There's a double deck dock and we rented a pontoon boat for a day and explored the lake. The only real downside was the slope of the land. People aren't kidding when they say the driveway is steep!! I had to close my eyes when my hubby drove us down it. And the walkway down to the dock was serious. Several of my family members have a few health issues or are a little overweight and they were only able to navigate it just the once. It really kept us from enjoying the dock/lake. It was not just hard to go up, but also down it's so steep. And yes, almost all of the houses around the lake are the same!! But we didn't go out exploring the area because no one wanted to drive in/out of the driveway again. And the terrain was too steep to walk around. Highly recommend this house to anyone who doesn't mind the steepness of the land!!

This home is beautiful with the most amazing view! It is very clean and well stocked organized and not cluttered. Big Creek is my favorite area on Norris lake and it is very close to the Big Creek Slalom course for some of our more competitive family members. The driveway is steep and a front wheel or 4 wheel car/truck would be nice but there is parking up by the road. The walk down to the water is much better than most of the homes on Norris Lake and I didn't find it to be difficult (I am 62). We were drawn to this home for the location and the extraordinary view, and it did not dissappoint.

Great family vacation

Beautiful home on perfect spot of the lake. Gorgeous view and very peaceful. Owners are great to work with - quick to respond and very helpful. Very steep driveway, typical for the area if you want that beautiful view! Walkway to water is also very steep, too steep for my 80 yr old dad. He enjoyed watching from the beautiful deck though. Very nice dock for kids to slide and jump. We enjoyed being there, thank you for sharing your home :)

Amazing!

This property was beautiful! Easy check in process, very clean, plenty of space for groups of family/friends, quiet neighborhood and very quiet part of the lake. The only bad things about the property were the slope down to the dock and the Wi-Fi. The concrete path down to the dock was very steep and could be difficult for older people and others. It was somewhat difficult to take things from the house to the dock, like coolers, lake toys, etc. The Wi-Fi was down most of our stay. However, this wasn’t a con for me since it gave my family some much needed time without cell service/Wi-Fi access but I could see it being a problem for anyone trying to work remotely or something. Overall, I loved this property! I definitely plan on staying again! I would highly recommend this property to anyone with kids, large groups/families! The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals and there is plenty to keep you having fun! My kids LOVED drawing with chalk on the big chalkboard wall!

Lovely Stay

We had a great long weekend at Norris. We have stayed in many houses around the Big Creek area and this one might be our new favorite. We were impressed with how well equipped this property is for a large group. The kitchen was well stocked, there is an icemaker in the basement, and having two ovens and two dishwashers is a game changer. We really loved the downstairs bedroom set up, with each bedroom having it's own full ensuite bathroom. The drive way and ramp down to the dock are STEEEEEP this is to be expected with most Norris homes, but we really felt like we got our workout in going from the dock to the house. The only thing we felt that was missing was a long outdoor dining table to eat our meals outside and enjoy the view.
