About this property
Beautiful lakeside family or corporate retreat with pool, hot tub, and more!
As its name and address would suggest, Pine Haven is tucked away in a quiet stand of pines on the eastern shore of Smith Mountain Lake and is awaiting your arrival! This custom lakefront home completed in 2017 still feels and looks like new and would be a candidate for anyone’s “A” list of top vacation destinations.
This spacious home boasts four beautifully furnished and well-appointed bedrooms, three and a half baths, a vaulted ceiling great room with stone fireplace and Sony flat screen TV, lighted curio cabinets, hickory flooring and knotty alder doors, premium granite top kitchen with the finest JennAir appliances, separate dining and breakfast areas overlooking the lake, and a walk-out gathering room with brand new sectional sofa, Sony 4K TV and kitchenette.
Whew! Take a breath and read on. There is a composite deck (no nails or splinters!) with retractable awning, an inground salt water pool (summer uae only), large paver patio, eight person hot tub, stone fire pit with composite Adirondack chairs, a gas Weber grill on the deck, Sonos surround sound throughout the living and outdoor areas, and a covered deep water dock to serve as a launch pad for all your water activities. There is ample paved parking for multiple vehicles and even a back-up whole house generator in the unlikely event power is lost during your stay. Internet and cable TV are included at no added cost.
Pine Haven is located in a quiet cove behind one of our favorite lakeside stops, Mitchell’s Point Marina where, in the warmer months you can rent the watercraft or water toys of your choice, enjoy mouth watering outdoor dining and live music at Mitchell’s Restaurant and Pizzeria, and cheat on your diet at the home dipped ice cream hut out front. The view from the home and dock is mostly of the large surrounding cove and community but, if you look above the tree tops, you’ll also catch the peak of the lake’s namesake, Smith Mountain.
If you’re new to Smith Mountain Lake, you’ll be swept away by the quality of life here. SML, as its known locally, is considered one of the top 10 fresh water lakes in the country and offers limitless boating and water based recreational activities. There are nearly two dozen marinas, a dozen lakeside restaurants, and enough open water to accommodate everything from slalom skiers to poker runs and professional fishing tournaments. Did we mention that it has 500 miles of shoreline?
The water is clean and weed-free and bugs are practically non-existent. Mosquitoes are on the endangered species list (not really, but you get the point.)
Pine Haven is the perfect destination for your family getaway or corporate retreat. But be forewarned – leaving it at the end of your stay may be harder than you think!

About the host
Hosted by Dennis and Mary Ann Derr
The owners, Mary Ann and Dennis Derr, are full time residents on Smith Mountain Lake and were formerly short term renters, just like you! We vacationed here with our extended family for many years, falling a bit more in love with the lake and the area each time we came, and finally made the commitment to build and move here full time. And we haven't looked back!
Why they chose this property
Our goal is to provide you, your family, friends, and associates experiences and memories that will last a lifetime! We love it here as do most other people who experience lake life at SML and will do our best to provide you with a comfortable and fun place to stay.
What makes this property unique
Enjoy unlimited water activities, both on the lake and in your own private pool and hot tub, during your stay. If you rent a boat or other watercraft, you can tie it up to the dock, hang out there and jump in to cool off, or cast a line to catch that big one lurking nearby! Nearby Mitchell's Marina offers a variety of watercraft rentals and some of the best food and live music on the lake during the extended summer months. There are more restaurants and shopping opportunities accessible by boat and even SML's famous ice cream boat that dispenses treats on demand for both young and old!
