About this property
Sunset Paradise: A Private Retreat. Come Relax, Refresh & Renew!
Best Kept Secret at the lake! GENTLE SLOPE from the house to the water!! NO STEEP STAIRS to navigate! Situated on a 3.47 acre lot with 560 ft of shoreline, the house sits on a Point within a large cove, so you have all the benefits of a point but within the safety and serenity of a very large no wake zone. That means plenty of room to swim and play without being constantly buzzed by the boat traffic!
Stay here once, and you'll be hooked! Sure to become your new PREFERRED PLACE TO STAY at SML!
Two docks for your enjoyment. The first is a large, screened in dock over the water with an attached floating dock. THIS IS A GUEST FAVORITE PLACE! Adults can sit in the screened in comfort (seating for 16), and listen to the water lapping below while the kids swim, and launch kayaks, paddleboards and floats from the floating dock. You could easily spend the whole day right here!
The second dock is an L-shaped dock for fishing, sunning, picnicking and tying up your boat. This dock has 2 wicker loungers and a picnic table with umbrella.
Perfect for multi-generation families, or multiple families vacationing together. There's plenty of space to do things together AND plenty of space to spread out. You'll want to come back year after year!!
Leave all your worries behind - come relax, make memories and enjoy unforgettable sunsets! There are incredible long views of the lake from nearly every room in the house! Plenty of room to gather together with multiple large gathering spaces, but also enough room for everyone to have their own space with 6 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms.
We want to make your packing light and easy and your stay as enjoyable as possible! The beds will be dressed when you arrive in high quality cotton linens, and the bathroom closets will be stocked with bath towels! You don't have to bring your own sheets OR walk in the door and make your own beds! In the bathrooms, you'll also find soap, shampoo, conditioner, make-up remover towels & towelettes, and a hair dryer.
In the kitchen, (in addition to everything you need to cook and serve your food), you'll also find basic spices and condiments, plus plastic wrap, foil, paper towels, trash bags, hot pads, & dish cloths and dish soap.

About the host
Hosted by Jim & Sherry
I grew up in Virginia and came to lake often as a kid. It's a dream come true to be able to own a property here and share it with others. Because we spend time here with our own family you can be assured that it's well taken care of and regularly checked by us personally. Plus we're less than an hour away if there are any urgent things that need attention during your stay.
Why they chose this property
We immediately fell in love with this property because this home is so perfectly set up for multi-generation families (or multiple families vacationing together). We have been using VRBO for our own family vacations for years and this property offers everything we were always looking for, plus some!
What makes this property unique
Enough private and together space for everyone! Cooking, dining and relaxing spaces large enough to accommodate the whole group, AND plenty of bedroom space for everyone to have their privacy.
