🌊 A Good Distraction – Lakefront Escape with Pool, Hot Tub, Game Room & Stunning Views
📍 Lake Norman | Sleeps 16 | 5 Bedrooms | 4 Bathrooms
🐾 Pet-Friendly | 🌊Private Pool & Hot Tub| Game Room & Arcade | Fire Pit & Outdoor Fireplace | Private Dock

Welcome to A Good Distraction, your new favorite escape on Lake Norman—where the views are endless, the amenities are unforgettable, and the pace of life slows down the moment you arrive. Whether you're planning a family reunion, a multi-generational vacation, or a getaway with friends, this beautiful lakefront home was made for connection, relaxation, and lasting memories.

Step inside and you'll immediately feel at home in the bright, airy main living space. Gleaming hardwood floors and an open-concept layout create a warm and welcoming vibe, while the recently remodeled chef's kitchen stands ready for anything from casual breakfasts to full-on family feasts. This thoughtfully stocked space includes everything you need to prepare meals, shake up cocktails at the wet bar, or simply sip coffee while gazing out at the water. There's plenty of room to gather at the island or sit down together at the dining table just steps away. In the adjacent living room, a cozy sectional, gas fireplace, and large smart TV offer the perfect place to unwind after a day in the sun.

Upstairs, the serene primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a king bed, lake views, a massive walk-in closet (complete with crib and rocker), and a spa-inspired bathroom with a soaking tub overlooking the backyard. Another king bedroom is located on this floor as well, with access to a full hallway bathroom nearby.

Downstairs is where the fun really starts. The lower level features another comfortable living area with a big-screen TV, sectional sofa, and retro arcade games for nostalgic entertainment. The sleeping arrangements downstairs include a private queen ensuite, two additional queen bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, and a charming bunk room with two full-over-full built-ins—ideal for kids' sleepovers and late-night laughs.

The garage has been transformed into a vibrant game room, ready for friendly competition with ping pong, pool, skee ball, air hockey, and even card games at the game table. Multiple TVs ensure you won't miss the big game, even while you're playing one.

Step outside and discover your own private outdoor oasis. Multiple decks, both upper and lower, are furnished for lounging, dining, and enjoying Lake Norman's beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Fire up the outdoor kitchen for summertime grilling, then gather in the evenings by the fire pit, the fireplace, or the cozy fire table—there's a perfect spot for every kind of night.

The private pool and hot tub are framed by lake views and loungers, inviting you to soak, swim, and savor the peaceful surroundings. Walk down to the water's edge to fish from the private dock, float with a drink in hand, or launch your rental boat for a day of lake adventure.

From slow mornings on the deck to game-filled evenings inside, every detail at A Good Distraction has been curated to help you relax, recharge, and reconnect. This is more than a vacation—it's your next favorite memory in the making.

Come stay awhile. You deserve the distraction.

Birthday Celebration

Great view. Lots of space. The master closet is also a baby nursery. So if you have an infant would be convenient. Large kitchen. Lots of beds downstairs with some video games. Internet service is not very good at the lake, so make sure you have a hot spot on your own devices.

Family Christmas

This was the perfect place to celebrate our family Christmas. The property management team was FABULOUS! They are so responsive and friendly. The house was gorgeous. If your family loves to cook and make memories this is the PERFECT place! We had 3 generations - 6 adults, 3 teenagers, 2 toddlers and 1 fury baby and we had plenty of room for everyone. The house was designed to meet everyone’s needs from gaming, arcade games, cooking, fire pits outside, fenced in yard and much more. We will definitely be back! Thank you Southern Charm for helping us make wonderful family memories!

Memorial Day Weekend

Overall this was a beautiful home. Plenty of space, entertainment, outdoor fun, easily accessible to surrounding stores and check in was super easy. The downfall of the place was there was dead gnats everywhere and multiple bugs (I’m assuming because of the weather and lake). Also a few things did not work while we stayed but it wasn’t bug enough to complain about because our overall experience was great. However, the television outside by the pool didn’t work, the heat for the hot tub wouldn’t work and the washing machine wouldn’t work. What I can say is, they are prompt with getting someone out to fix things. I mentioned the washer because I was going to help the cleaning people out and start washing things, but by the time our festivities for the day ended it was late. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Best vacation. Would love to stay again!

Beautiful home. Immaculate. Perfect layout. At checkin they gave us code to front door but failed to tell us code to driveway gate. I dont think they even knew there was a gate code as I itsa new property. The problem was that my aging parents. tried and failed to enter for 45 minutes, in the heat. The parking situation was a little challenging. The driveway is narrow. The property managers are terrific! Kind helpful, and gave me restaurant recommendations and the best caterer we’ve ever had! Speaking of, that was for the one organized dinner for the weekend. The table seated all of us perfectly, with a wonderful view of the lake. The lake toys were a blast- sup, kayaks. I think we used every square inch of the house. Terrific use of space and layout. I could go on. Thank you for making our family celebration amazing! Return customers for sure!

Annual UGA football at the lake

This is a lovely house with a wonderful layout for a larger group. Property is really beautiful with so much included - the game room was a hit with everyone! Only small critiques - a ladder into/out of the water on the dock and an additional dishwasher. All in all a fantastic weekend at "A Good Distraction" and an outstanding Georgia win!!
