About this property

LOCATION! Restaurants, Shops! Waterfront Quiet, Golf Community Game Room Bunks

Welcome to Brown Dog's Bluff at Smith Mountain Lake, where you will enjoy the tranquility of a quiet golf course community with waterfront views and access.
This updated home's open floorplan provides an abundance of room for family and friends to gather. This gorgeous property is enchanting with its paved driveway, brick walkway to cove, and professional landscaping. We have an abundance of parking options for multiple vehicles and boat trailers. The "wake free" cove is ideal for floating, kayaking, and fishing. This location is especially convenient with easy access to multiple restaurants by car or by boat. Hiking at a national park, golf, ice cream stands and Bridgewater Plaza are amongst many of the nearby attractions.

**RECENTLY ADDED** Outdoor shower!!!

Brown Dog's Bluff provides incredible views from the Master Bedroom, Kitchen, Living Room and Lower level. The Main floor open living space has cathedral ceilings and is a great host for large family meals, movie nights or board games. You won't feel left out in this kitchen open to the living room, with countertop seating. The large dining table with 5 chairs and a bench welcomes 8-9 people. The kitchen, dining room and living room are ideal for large family/friend gatherings.

You may not want to leave the large King Master Bedroom Suite with large windows accessing fantastic waterfront views, desk and huge walk-in closet. You will enjoy a luxurious and immense Master Bedroom Bath; it is spa-like, with jetted bathtub and separate walk-in shower. Free High Speed Internet and desk will accommodate your needs if you need to bring your work with you. 2 additional large bedrooms with Queen beds and additional Full Bathroom offer plenty of private living space on the Main Floor. An additional Half Bath provides access to facilities while showers are in use.

When you transition to the Lower Level, children and young adults will be overjoyed with the 2 sets of bunk beds, large sectional couch, DVD player, Wii entertainment system and half-bath. The lower level also has an extra large Game Room complete with ping-pong table, foosball, pool table and dart board. This is a perfect solution to a rainy day or after-dark fun!

Sliding glass doors on both levels provide additional light, views of the lake and make an inviting transition to our deck and patio. From there you will enjoy an enchanted brick walkway to the dock and ~wake-free~ cove. *RELAX and FLOAT* You may want to explore with the kayaks and life vests provided. Our floating dock is the perfect temporary host to your boat or jet-ski, or you may rent from one of many local marinas. Please tie up to the floating dock, as there is no access to the boat lift. Bring your own fenders and life vests.

You may choose to bring your own linens and towels, or use the linen service provided by We Got You Covered-SML. All beds complete with bath towels are $228.

As advertised and then some!
We stayed for a few days while attending our son’s graduation Virginia Tech and it was fantastic. Finally a home that matches the description! This house and location will it disappoint you! The host was also very response to messages leading up to our stay and a pleasure to deal with. I would highly recommend this house to anyone, we will certainly book again! Thank you!

We immediately felt at home......
We immediately felt at home in this lovely property. The owners were so accommodating and very quick to respond to any questions. The home was immaculate, everything was really thoughtfully done. The game room was such a nice addition to our lake days. The dock is amazing, the kayaks were so much fun. I took one out and just floated in the peaceful water, no fear of a boat speeding by and knocking me around. It was a little piece of heaven. Not enough nice things to say. Highly recommended and we would love to come back next year.

Just lovely
This house was extremely comfortable, in a great location and had everything we needed and more. There was tremendous attention to detail which made the house and property exceptionally cozy. The game room was perfect for our kids. We will absolutely stay here again.

Perfect lake vacation spot!
Brown Dog Bluff was fabulous. Lovely and welcoming space inside and out. Airy and comfy throughout. The owners pay so much attention to every detail. We all loved the game room! The cove is perfect for floating and paddling, and also easy access to boat to lunch or dinner (our favorite), or hit Kroger and cook at home. We all had a really great time. I also loved that there was plenty of shade (including over the hammock!)
