A convenience store is 5 minutes away, and grocery stores, restaurants, shopping centers, marinas, boat rentals, movies and the State Park are all within 2 to 30 minutes' drive - some by car and some by boat! The small protected cove is ideal for swimming, fishing, floating, kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding and paddle boating but with easy access to the lake and only 2 minutes from the Bridge which has restaurants, miniature golf, game room, gift shops, realtors and the Chamber of Commerce.

great place
Husband and son stayed for a short fishing weekend. Check in was great, space is VERY clean and has everything you need. They loved the "game room" set up. Kathy was very attentive and accommodating. Will definitely stay again in warmer weather to enjoy all the location has to offer.

Great 19th Birthday Celebration
Celebrated my Freshman VT student at Kathy's Place. Accommodated a total of 7 people with our dog comfortably. The place was clean and kitchen was well equipped for cooking a good meal. The celebrant and his friends enjoyed the outdoor activities that come with the place. Great view every morning with our cup of coffee.Kathy was a great host and conveniently available next door.Would definitely come back for more fun.

About the host

Hosted by Capts. Spike & Kathy Franceschini

Host profile image
We started 'Spike's Prime Time Fishin'' in late 1988. Spike and I are striper charter captains with two 22ft deck boats. We purchased the triplex to offer fishing charters and/or waterfront vacation rentals to our clients and to anyone who enjoys the water like we do. We tried to put the amenities we liked best in all of the places we have traveled and stayed into our fishing and rental business.

Why they chose this property

We chose our triplex immediately for the magnificient view! We also chose it for close proximity to stores, etc. and Route 122. It is near the Hales Ford Bridge, which gives us close access to Bridgewater Plaza and local marinas. It also puts us halfway on the Roanoke River side of the lake, which gives us excellent access to fishing from the Dam to the headwaters the year round. We have deep water under our docks but also have a small shallow water sandy beach.

What makes this property unique

A golf car is included in your rental. You have shared use of our 5 kayaks, the sandy beach, a canoe, 2 paddle boards, diving board, tubes, noodles, floats and a paddle boat. We have great fishing off of our docks. We are situated on over 2 acres surrounded by large white pines which gives it a 'compound' effect for privacy. There is plenty of grass for putting up volleyball/badminton/croquet sets. A large paved driveway is wonderful for skateboards, bikes, roller blades and sidewalk chalk. We also live on a dead end street and keeps traffic at a minimum, good for walking and biking.
