MOUNTAIN VIEW SHORES is a lovely development with many year-round homes, it features a private boat ramp area where you may park your boat trailer for the duration of your stay. It has paved roads and central water system. Ideal for walkers and joggers. Lake location is supreme being near the mountain and the dam at the deepest, cleanest part of the lake. The land was originally owned by the Appalachian Power Company (which owns the lake) and a group of 10 investors from Bedford bought the land from the Power Company in the late 1970's and developed the subdivision comprised of over 400 lots, offering the land for sale one section per year, selling out in 4 years.

Beautiful view with fun amenities
Property was very clean and comfortable. View was amazing!!! The canoe, kayaks and SUP were so much fun!!! Paddling out a bit from the property we could see the dam and georgous mountains. They even had some life jackets we could use. Firepit was a fantastic amenity. One caution: If you order the linen package, ensure it has the correct configuration of sheets for your guests. The house has a max of 6 occupants, but has beds for 11. While there were enough sheets for 6, we didn't get the right mix (there were not enough sheets for all of the queen beds and there were twin sheets provided when we didn't plan to use the twin beds). Luckily the owner had a set of queen sheets in the closet so it worked out. We would definitely go back.

Perfect Long Weekend
This is the perfect house for a group. We rented this location for a long weekend with another group that rented very close to us. They came to our dock most days as this dock was PERFECT. The neighbors were great and very welcoming we had the best time. Everything you could need is supplied and the house is gorgeous.

Wonderful SML Property
We stayed at Fun in the Sun for 5 days/ 4 nights. The house is great and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped, beds were very comfortable, everything was very clean, and the games in the basement were a total bonus. We played so many games of pool! The outdoor spaces are the best! We enjoyed breakfast on the deck looking out on the lake each morning. The fire pit and the dock were great as well. We rented a boat from Mitchell’s (also recommend!) and easily tied up at the house dock. Everyone was very friendly and helpful - property mgmt company and Chris (owner’s sister). Overall a wonderful trip and we’ll be back!

Amazing Christmas stay at SML!
Owners went above and beyond to make us feel welcome by decorating inside and outside and leaving a gift under the tree. We loved making cozy fires in the fireplace and the gorgeous sunset views from the house. A lovely neighborhood for walking. Excellent proximity to local market - White House Corner Market and Smith Mountain Lake State Park. Would highly recommend staying here.
