This property was perfect for our friend group to ring in the new year. So spacious and comfortable! It also had amazing views of the lake. We would definitely come back!
Couple of maintenance issues but nothing that would have stopped is

Great location and sunsets. Needs a lot of TLC!
Location was perfect, easy to find and close to DB marina. Sunsets were spectacular against Bankhead Nat'l Forest. House and grounds need some repair and cleaning! No electricity on dock nor any lighting on walkway makes a nighttime swim or boat ride Dangerous. Not a lot of outdoor seating which was disappointing and the random picnic table filthy and swing bench with broken spindles is accident waiting to happen. Hamock inviting idea but filthy and worn beyond usage. Slipcover furniture need to be replaced along with what looked like a beanbag on the floor from the 70's. Air Vents are black, water stain on ceiling, fan blades that look like they've never been cleaned were just gross! Lots of potential if owners take the time for updates and maintenance.

Thank you for the feedback. It is the end of the season and there are a few things that need attention. Owner is adding lighting on the walkway, fixing the one slat on the swing, will look at replacing the slip covers, and is replacing the hammock. The water stain on the ceiling is an old ac leak and he is waiting to paint the entire room. We checked the fans and they had some dust on them but not as you described. Matter of fact the cleaners had cleaned them recently. I assume you meant the return air vents which we checked and they had clean filters. The outdoor picnic tables will always need wiping down as it is impossible to keep clean in the outside. Flatrock owners have been updating the house every year and are very close to being complete. After going by the house I feel this review, which was helpful to point out some things were were unaware of, is unfair and overly critical. Don't base your opinion off this one review. See the other 5 star reviews.
We absolutely loved our stay here! We had never been to Smith Lake but went with a family who has. They actually preferred this location to the place where they’d previously stayed! Plenty of space, well appointed, and great indoor and outdoor areas for elementary aged kids to play. Awesome big dock with easy access for boating, tubing, swimming. We rented a pontoon boat and a water trampoline and it was perfect. We never left the property other than to boat and tube! Added bonus, the neighbor has a precious dog named Bella who visited a few times and made our kids’ days even happier. (If you don’t like dogs - there’s obviously something wrong with you - just close the gate and she’ll stay at her house.) We will be repeat visitors!
We had a couple of things that needed to be fixed on the house. (Door knob, grill utensils) but they were very prompt in doing so. The house is in a great location on the lake. It was very busy Saturday which made for a lot of wakes off the boats. If you have a boat, they do not have a boat lift so bring your ties and buoys or your boat will get dinged.
Other than that good house easy walk to the boat dock and our boys loved the extra game room and downstairs.
The inside of the house was clean but the decor was outdated and the furniture needs updating.
Air conditioning wasn’t working well. We were quite hot during the day .Decking was worn and needs painting. Outside furniture also needs painting. Bedspreads were Worn. Guest Bed upstairs needs new mattress. It needs cosmetic updates for sure. Driveway had hole in concrete
This beautiful lake home was a perfect place for our family to relax and play while appropriately socially distancing. The game room was great in the evenings. The boat dock not only provided a place for the pontoon, but also has a great ladder for swimming. The beds were comfy. We all spent great times on the back deck enjoying each other! It was great and I’ve dreamed about it ever since!
