Nice resort community
The house is as advertised. It’s very close to a pool and gym and about a 10 minute walk to the marina and beach. The kitchen is very well stocked even with a crock pot.

Lovely place to stay at Smith Mountain
Excellent spot with so many amenities right across the street: an indoor and outdoor pool, game room, ice cream parlor, gym, tennis, pickleball, basketball and a short walk to the lake!. Really fun for kids especially- the house has very comfortable beds and perfect touches everywhere.
