Lakefront Hideaway - Lake Views with Pool & Kayaks for Use

• 1BR / 1BA Lakefront Studio Condo on beautiful Smith Mountain Lake
• Private, spacious balcony with unobstructed water views
• Sleeps 2 adults + 1 kiddo comfortably (1 Queen bed + sleeper sofa)

We’ve thought of the little things so you can simply relax and enjoy your stay. Here’s what you’ll find in the condo:

• Cook with Ease – A fully equipped kitchen stocked with cooking utensils, plates, glasses, cutlery, a slow cooker, and even a small air fryer.

• Entertainment Ready – Flat-screen TV, DVD player with a movie selection (Redbox nearby for more!), and a Nintendo — all the fun without needing Wi-Fi (streaming apps available but connection can be spotty).

• Rest & Recharge – A cozy bedroom with fresh sheets, soft pillows, and extra linens and pillows for the sofa bed if needed.

Along with the comforts of the condo itself, our property offers a variety of amenities to make your lake getaway even more enjoyable:

• Grill & Gather – Enjoy outdoor grills and picnic-style dining spaces, perfect for lakeside meals and relaxing evenings.

• Laundry Made Easy – Our app-based laundry facility lets you check availability and manage loads right from your phone.

• Stay Active – Challenge friends or family on the well-maintained tennis and pickleball courts.

• On the Water – Two kayaks are available for your use, making it simple to paddle out and explore the lake. Note, you will need to either carry downhill or have a vehicle to transport them to the waters edge.

• Boat Access & Parking – A private boat ramp and designated boat/trailer parking are available. In addition, a slip is also available for use. Please request ramp access at the time of booking to ensure proper permissions are set up through the amenities app.

Please note (June 2026): current regional drought conditions have lowered lake levels, and the boat slip/dock may not be usable during your stay depending on water conditions. Kayaks remain available for guest use when conditions permit.

• Convenience Options – While the property includes quite a few stairs, guests may also drive down to the boat ramp area if preferred.

Your lakeside getaway is ready for you — we look forward to hosting your stay!

Katie’s place is an example of extremely efficient use of space, topped with a fantastic awning covered porch and beautiful view of gorgeous Smith Mountain Lake. We used one of their kayaks by putting it in the rear of our Prius to get it down to the ramp and back up to the kayak storage spot. It was lovely to be out on the still water on a weekday morning in May!Thanks, Katie, for your very quick response when we needed a code. It was a lovely getaway!

I came to SML for a quick hiking trip and this condo was perfect for my stay. It was so cute with a nice view overlooking the lake. Perfect place if you're traveling solo like I was or for a couple's trip. The hosts were so kind, responded quickly and also gave great recommendations when I asked about suggestions for dining options. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.

The condo was clean and communication with the owner was wonderful. There is easy access to the pool and it was very refreshing. We enjoyed some nice dining and appreciate the recommendations. Napoli was the best!! We chose this particular condo because we hoped to use the kayaks that were advertised as available. After much deliberation and walking the route that would be required to get the kayaks to the water and back we decided not to give it a go. This was disappointing. Also, the description listed the availability of Netflix. We were never able to get a connection. Not a big deal but another small disappointment.

Response from VrboOwner on 7 June 2026
Thank you for the kind feedback on the cleanliness, pool, and dining recommendations! Regarding the kayaks — our guestbook does outline that a hill is involved in getting them to the water, but we appreciate the nudge to make that more prominent in the listing itself so future guests can plan accordingly. We also welcome guests to contact us during their stay if anything comes up. On the WiFi, we advertise this property as an "unplug" retreat and note that connectivity can be spotty during peak times, which can affect streaming — but that's another area we'll look at clarifying more clearly upfront. We appreciate you sharing your experience and hope to host you again!

This little condo was in immaculate condition when we checked in!!! Although we visited in the fall when the weather was cool, it was still beautiful to sit on the balcony and take in the view of the lake. In the room, there was pretty much anything you’d need to cook with (utensils, pots/pans, etc), towels, soaps, fresh bedsheets, one of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in! My favorite feature overall is the fireplace. Since it was so chilly, the extra heat and view of the electric fireplace added a nice cozy touch when it got dark outside. I think the pictures don’t serve this condo justice, it was beautiful inside and out! We even saw a family of deer the next morning just hanging out in the parking lot, super cool to witness!! It’s very quiet out here. The only issue we had was actually finding the room, but that may have been our fault and due to the fact that it was already dark outside when we first arrived. This condo is tucked in a corner of the main floor (not the very bottom) all the way to the left and decorated super cute! I will definitely be staying here for much longer during the summertime. This stop was just a short overnight stay as part of a much larger road trip, but we are definitely talking about coming to this cabin next summer for some lake activities!!

About the host

Hosted by Katie Feltman

Host profile image
We fell for this lake while stationed in VA while my husband was in the Army and couldn’t resist making it our own escape! We’ve loved spending time on the water with our young son. I’m a wine and book lover who thinks there’s nothing better than reading on the balcony at sunset. Now it’s time to share the magic so others can enjoy kayaking, lake days, and cozy moments like we do.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because it offers the perfect balance of convenience and tranquility. It’s close to all the amenities in West Lake, yet tucked away in a quiet, peaceful setting. The property itself has wonderful amenities without feeling like a big resort. The calm lake cove is ideal for kayaking or paddleboarding, the fishing is excellent, and the large pool is perfect for cooling off on warm days.

What makes this property unique

hat makes our condo truly special is the spacious balcony with stunning lake views and breathtaking sunsets. Tucked away in a quiet, natural setting, it feels like a peaceful retreat—yet you’re just minutes from restaurants, stores, and all the conveniences you need for a perfect lakeside getaway.
