A Beautiful View

If you want to enjoy Smith Mountain Lake while drinking your morning coffee or your evening with a cocktail, the deck on this is the place to be! Great dock to enjoy the water too!

Came for the view, and didn't disappoint! The house was clean and comfortable. We swam and fished off the dock. The only drawback was lack of some back was the lack of some kitchen equipment.

The lake with an Ice Cream Boat! Just for fun.

Great location, fun little house

Pros: easy to find, well marked, plenty parking. Great access to the lake, easy stairs. nice dock, loved the floating island. nice firepit by lake. Big hot tub (could use a light at hot tub). Nice spacious deck. Good grill. spacious kitchen. Master bedroom big, bed comfy, nice bedding (dangerous spots on edge of bed frame, knots in wood) Nice shower pressure. Cons: noa/c in the guest bedroom. this is a big deal in the hot months. maybe a ceiling fan in living room to circulate the air? We had a couple issues that were dealt with promptly by rental company. We'd stay again if they fix the a/c or in a cooler time of year. we didn't use the "cub den" but could see it being a lot of fun for kids.

Great week on the lake

Our family of 5 enjoyed this home. Great location, plenty of room for us, and a well maintained home. We brought our boat and took it to coffee, dinner, ice cream, etc. Swam and fished all day from the dock. Thank you!

Truly Relaxing

It was more beautiful than the pictures and peaceful. I thought there would have been more traffic on the water but only a few boats. The hottub was my favorite part with a book and a spectacular view. It was amazing, we highly recommend.
