Family time at the lake

The house sits on an amazing cove. We were all about fun in the water and hanging out on the back deck and double decker dock. Being September, it felt like we had the lake to ourselves, it was so quiet. We swam and had great fun on the paddle boards and kayaks. The water was perfect along with the weather. The house was very comfortable for a group of seven. The beds were comfy and the kitchen had everything we could desire. I communicated with the host about a few very minor things and she responded promply. Staying there made me want to come back.

Lake Life

Very nice location but very steep drop down to the lake. House is very well equipped, and comfortable, just a bit dated. The lakeside dock is awesome and you'll spend hours on the back porch. Overall, a quaint lakeside retreat.

A Space for Everyone!

This is a lovely property filed with so many nice spaces: there really is a spot for everyone. Whether you feel like swimming, reading in the sun, gathering around a campfire or playing board games at night you can find your perfect space to relax and enjoy your vacation. The kitchen is well appointed with many great (extra) appliances and a spacious pantry large enough to store all the food needed for a crowd. We really enjoyed our time at this beautiful home!

Perfect for 2 families with kids!

We had an amazing stay. With 5 kids, ages 3-7, our 2 families had plenty of space inside and outside to enjoy our stay. The house is stocked - we cooked/grilled each night, played games, made smores, and loved our time on the lake using the paddleboards and kayaks! We rented a boat from Mitchell’s Marina which was easy and close. Highly recommend and hope to stay here again!

Amazing Lake house all the bells and whistles rustic, homey

All the amenities! So necessary to have washer dryer, fire pit, kayaks, hot tub, dishwasher! We had the perfect amount of beds/ rooms so everyone was comfortable and separated enough from noise. I have yet to have a place with a maid or a garbage disposal….but short of that, this place has it all:) the Lake cove was great for fishing and we were able to swim half mile protected from any big wakes. The neighborhood was quiet and beautiful for our morning walks. I would totally go back here. Grateful for our gracious host!

Absolutely Wonderful Spot

We spent a weekend here for my Dad's birthday weekend for the guys in our family. We had a wonderful, relaxing time. It was quiet, comfortable and the best stocked rental any of us had ever stayed in. She had everything that we would have needed. The dock was lovely to spend time on, there is plenty of space, and the house was immaculate. Gwen was very communicative and understanding. Could not recommend the house and the incredibly gracious host more. I would 100% come back.

Lovely Fall Girls’ Weekend

My friends and I booked a weekend away from the spouses and kids for a quiet girls’ weekend and this was the PERFECT spot. The house was cozy, but had plenty of room for each of us to have space. Parking was terrific for 4 cars (and there was room for more.) The neighborhood was quiet and safe. The house was equipped with everything we needed. The highlights were the big back deck overlooking the lake, the hot tub, the fire pit, and the dock. It was so peaceful and we are already talking about when we can go back. I will definitely stay here again when I return to Smith Mountain Lake.

Wonderful Rental Home

My family gathered together to stay at this home, and we had a lovely experience! The Huddleston area of the lake feels a bit less crowded, and this home is nicely situated in a no-wake cove. Outside, the property is nicely equipped with kayaks and paddle boards, plenty of adirondack-style and padded chairs, a nice firepit and a nice Weber Genesis grill. There is also a hot tub, but we didn't use it. Inside, the owner has thoughtfully equipped the home with drying racks in each bedroom, throw blankets, and everything you could think of in the kitchen. While we didn't use them, there's also a good selection of games and puzzles. Plus, the owner is great with communication. I'm sad to see that the property is already booked for next year! We all would happily return.

Perfect Friends Trip

We have stayed at many homes on SML and this is one of the best. The inside of the home is cozy with room for everyone, an amazingly stocked kitchen, and an area downstairs for the whole group to hang out until the wee hours of the morning without bothering the neighbors. That said, this house really shines with its outdoor spaces. The dock will entertain any group from dusk until dawn. The hot tup and both back decks have great views of the water. The location on the lake is also great for a group that just wants to enjoy the unspoiled parts of SML. Just across the water is our favorite no-wake cove to enjoy all day. Couldn't have asked for a better spot for a great weekend with even better friends.

Amazing Experience

Wow, we had an amazing time at this wonderful house! Especially glad that there were plenty of life jackets for all ages (aged 2 and up), ample boats, paddleboards and oars as well as lots of games and entertainment indoors. Hot tub and fire pit and the water jist topped this off as an amazing, relaxing vacation. Got super lucky with great weather. Thank you for opening up your home to us!

Perfect family getaway!

Delightful property on a lake cove. Made us feel like we were in summer camp! Plenty of space for the 10 of us - 6 adults and 4 children. Kitchen was well stocked with all you needed to cook for a group. Beds were comfortable and having 3 levels gave everyone a chance for some privacy. The covered porch was a favorite hangout by all - early morning coffee, lunch, crafts with the little one, grilling steaks, and watching the kids have fun. Everyone loved the hot tub, and the firepit was twice the center of a s'mores party. Kids loved swimming, fishing and paddling right off the dock, while the upper deck on the boathouse was great for reading, snoozing, and watching the swimmers and boaters. The kayaks and paddleboard were a big plus. Our daughter's family brought their boat, so there were many trips out onto the lake - tubing, wakeboarding and just exploring. As the grandkids left, the 10 year old said "let me run down and touch the dock one more time." As good a recommendation as you can get.

Exceptional

This property exceeded our expectations. Our family of 5 adults and 5 children thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home had all of the accompaniments one would expect and some that were not expected. The lower floor had a number of games for the children that occupied their time during swim breaks and the main floor balcony was well appointed with comfortable seating for the adults while relaxing or catching up with e-mails via the reliable internet. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, pots and pans, as well as a variety of spices to support most all culinary needs. The. dock area was well stocked with kayaks and life preservers and provided a quiet and protected space for hours of swimming and water fun. The fire pit, with wood provided, was a highlight for the children and adults alike. The owner was available for questions and always responsive. All in all, this was one of our very best RVBO experiences ever.

About the host

My family lives in Atlanta, Georgia. I enjoy working as a High School Counselor.

Why they chose this property

After an extensive "lake house search" nothing I found compared to Smith Mountain Lake. It is quickly becoming a wonderful meeting place for my family that lives both in the north and the south.

What makes this property unique

House that feels like a cabin in a neighborhood with great walking routes and a community boat ramp.
