Herons Rest
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Prepare to kick back and relax at this incredible Peaks-of-Otter stone cottage, located on the beautiful shores of Smith Mountain Lake. Truly unique and charming, the house has decks on two levels offering stunning views of the lake. You'll love the private dock with deep water and a floater for all of your water activities.
Surrounded by huge trees for privacy and shade, the property gently slopes across over two acres, with a large fenced yard for guests with dogs. Each oversized room overlooks the lake, as do all the decks and porches as well. Unwind in an Adirondack chair or relax in the hammock as you gaze out over the calm waters of the lake. Relax in the hot tub at night with the stars to guide you and the lake waters to calm you.
Inside, you’ll find granite countertops and wood floors. Two bay windows and large sliding glass doors offer an unobstructed view of the lake from the main level. A modern kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances (including a dishwasher). For those visiting in cooler weather, the house features a gas fireplace in the living room. Each bedroom has its own TV in addition to the TV in the family room. A pool table provides hours of fun for the whole group.
