This was our second stay at Dockside Daze, and once again, it was a fantastic week! The house is beautiful and filled with thoughtful amenities that make it feel like home. The yard is spacious—perfect for lawn games and relaxing outdoors. We especially loved the dock and tiki bar area, which is beautifully set up and offers a perfect spot to take in the stunning sunsets each evening. The location is great too—close to plenty of stores, restaurants, and everything you might need.
Perfect lake house! Very clean and comfortable. Has everything you need for a week at the lake. The yard is amazing and such a beautiful dock! The water toys were such a treat and kept us all busy on the water. Really a nice cove for swimming and kayaking. So close to grocery stores and to boat rentals! Really a perfect location! Hope to visit again :)
This property is top notch. The owners provided everything. This truly was an excellent place to be lazy and enjoy the dock and views. Upon arrival it was evident the owners put a lot of attention to detail the house outside and inside was so clean and decorated beautifully. The dock was perfect for our boat and they offered an array of kayaks paddle boats and other water floats ( we used those every day). Absolutely the best experience … so good we booked same week next year!
This place is amazing! Everything is provided (and I mean everything). We loved our weekend here. Very relaxing and extremely comfortable. The view is wonderful - peaceful. The hosts are on top of everything and easily accessible if needed. I highly recommend this property.
It was a wonderful vacation. The kayaks and paddle board were very convenient. The outside living area was so comfortable and nice with a a beautiful view of the lake. We would definitely stay again.
I cannot begin to describe how fantastic this place is! It was so clean and communication/accommodations with the property managers were outstanding! We will definitely stay here again!
Dockside Daze was a terrific location for our weeklong family vacation. Owners were amazing at what they offered and their communication. Location was subperb
The property is very nice, well maintained and set up nice for guest. Very nice location, perfect boat docking setup and well maintain docks. I took a 24' bay boat, dock was perfect for a boat that size. Of the few houses I have rented at Smith Mountain Lake for a few days fishing at other houses in the past, Dockside Daze will now be my go-to for Smith Mountain Lake trips.
The property was immaculate and the owners provided everything you could need or want. The check in process was seamless and the owner’s communication was excellent and welcoming.
This incredibly well stocked, well thought out, well appointed, gorgeous gem of a home was perfect for our small family Thanksgiving. Any kitchen item you might need - there are several to choose from, including the host bringing over a turkey roasting pan so I didn’t have to bring mine. The beds, super comfy with lovely linens included. The property very well taken care off with so many amenities! Could not recommend more/a real treasure in a picture perfect location.
Great vacation at Dockside Daze! My twin and I celebrated our 70th birthday together. Thanks to Heather for the birthday cake! We will definitely be back!
Beautiful views, ideal water access, clean and very well-stocked home and dock, friendly hosts! I guess the secret is out -- Dockside Daze is a fantastic choice for SML.
Great lakefront property with an amazing dock and tiki bar!
We have stayed at a few places on SML and this is our favorite. The dock and tiki bar are amazing! Close to Mangos and westlake. Kitchen has everything you need to cook, coffee pot, tea kettle etc all included.
Highly recommend!
This was the best little getaway! We wanted a relaxing spot to take the kids for a couple days during spring break to relax and fish and this was perfect! The house had everything and the hosts were amazing. We will definitely be back!
The house was well stocked and had everything we needed. The dock is great, the tiki bar with full fridge- wonderful! The location was perfect, 5 min drive to most anything you need.
We have been vacationing at SML for many years and this was the best rental so far. Loved the location, house had everything you needed and more, clean, best beds ever, and the Dock is amazing! We have now found our yearly rental until we can get a home of our own on the lake. Thank you!
Had a great time. House was great and everything was provided that we needed for a nice stay.

About the host
Hosted by Heather Crawford & Ken Slusser
We love to travel and water activities so Smith Mountain Lake instantly appealed to us. We take a great amount of pride in personally managing our home to ensure it is in tip top shape for our guests. As you can see from our reviews we strive to make this the vacation destination guests return to year after year.
Why they chose this property
There are only so many premium located properties at SML. We fell in love with Dockside Daze due to its great central location and amazing dock views. The gradual incline and short distance to the dock, Tiki bar, grilling and firepit area makes for easy entertainment and convenience. It's so close to everything from restaurants, churches, grocery and liquor stores, shopping, pet vets, several wineries, breweries/distilleries, and everything else.
What makes this property unique
Lots of deck and dock space to enjoy beautiful sunsets, well-maintained inside and out, and tiki bar with full fridge, tv, and sound system. 800mbs internet speed and premium sports cable package.
