The home was lovely and had everything we needed. We greatly enjoyed having access to the SUPs and kayaks. We all made use of them. Lovely setting, great weather, lots of games. Great family vacation.

Excellent! We spent 2 weeks in this beautiful home with 2 families. We have been holidaying in Smith’s Lake for over 20 years and this has been one of our favourite stays. The architecture of the home means you can enjoy spectacular views from every room in the main house, and the studio apartment out the back is PERFECT for the teenagers to retire to!!! The Arthouse has a fabulously equipped kitchen, comfortable bedrooms and living spaces, and use of the kayaks and paddle boards was incredibly convenient and meant we made the most of our stay on the lake. Importantly, our host Robert was wonderful to deal with and always quick to respond. Highly recommend.
