We found Decked Out just as described on VRBO. It is a gorgeous home with beautiful views of the lake. We enjoyed the deck space and the fire pit area. Plenty of space in the home. The teenagers and adults loved the game room area. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans and dishes and the beds were very comfortable. Great place to stay with family and friends.
Lake time is relaxing!

Great property for family

This lake house is awesome in all ways for your family. Quiet, clean, fun and the host was available for any questions we had. The double deck dock was a hit with the kids as well as the paddle boards provided. Lots of life vests of all sizes also provided. I will stay here every time I visit Smith Lake.

Amazing house and location

It was a beautiful house and the lake was wonderful. So clean and inviting. Boat rentals were easy and we spent a lot of time on the lake and jumping off the double decker dock. Downstairs was was a perfect place for our teenagers to have their own retreat.

Great Place for a Family Summer Vacation

This place was great for our family vacation. The house is wonderful, and the new decks and the double decker dock are truly outstanding. And the lake was great, it was deep, clean and during the week, it had very little boat traffic.

Serene lake views, beautiful clean water and a quiet private neighborhood.

Our family had a great time in this remote gorgeous spot on the lake. In the morning we had our coffee overlooking the tranquil glass like lake (except on the weekend), in the afternoon we went swimming in the exceptionally clean water and reflection

About the host

Hosted by Xiaodi Autry

Host profile image
I came to the State 30 years ago, happily married to my hubby for 24 years with 2 wonderful children. Both my husband and I enjoy fishing and other out door activities, our kids both played sports. We have been working very hard our whole lives and buying a lake front property was our goal for retirement.
We bought the house in 2017, in the last 3 years this lake property has been our main focus. We replaced some furnitures, swapped out mattresses, decors, updated all kitchen appliances, put rip rap rocks on shoreline, you will see new circular concrete driveway, and we just finished the brand new 3 level decks to provide our family and our renters the best we can offer on Smith Lake. This lake is the 2nd cleanest lake in the nation. It is a busy lake but we do not have to worry about boat traffic getting too close to where we are at, sitting on the shaded deck looking at the lake for some morning coffee, going fishing, taking a boat ride to see new houses getting built are our favorite things to do besides watching and pulling our kids doing water sports, Oh, and sitting on the dock watching sunset is my most favorite thing to do at that time of the day. I hope you and yours will soak everything in like we do and more to make a lot of great memories for years to come.

Why they chose this property

When we decided to buy a lake house 7 years ago, we wanted to be on a clean lake, convenient to restaurants, grocery store and hospital and marina with plenty of living space, and very few steps to the shoreline, in front of big water with a gorgeous view, and this was what we found.
With where it is located, you do not need to go far for anything.
Because this is an owner closely held property, We have quick services on any issues coming up, most of the time with same day services.

What makes this property unique

My husband and I are business owners and we pay a lot attention to details of what we do to put quality and value first. when you stay at Decked Out you are not far from anywhere due to its location. we provide a game room to keep all ages entertained. you do not have to worry about shade on the top deck because you will be surrounded by trees and shade anytime of the day like you are in a tree house. There are somethings about staying at a lake house / Decked Out: it helps to relax and clear my mind; to see more beauty in life; pay attention to better side of people and things. I can even find peace in the storm right here at the lake... Life is better at the lake, especially at Decked Out.
