Great place for a last minute trip

My adult kids and I spent a week here working remotely and enjoying the lake in our down time. It was a great townhouse and the lake and beach were super convenient for playing in the water. We would definitely stay here again if were come back to the area.

Perfect getaway

Highly recommend for an easy stay on Smith Mountain Lake! The condo had everything we needed, the views were spectacular, easy water access, and great neighborhood. I’d recommend bringing heat you need as stores and restaurants are a bit of a drive, but the condo itself was perfect. Our pup loved it too.

Perfect vacation

The house was perfect for our family vacation! Loved the option to bring a rented boat to the boat slip, and the lake was the best backdrop for our family portrait. The house was well stocked with kayaks and life jackets and all things fun for the lake. The house has the little beach directly in front of it which was perfect for my baby granddaughter. We can't wait to come again!

Nice location, water activities near by and perfect weekend getaway! No food at house so bring your coffee/tea, also you have to throw trash to different place (10 mins away) afterwards which was little inconvenient.

First experience at Smith Mountain Lake

The property was nice and the location was fantastic. We had a great time. The home had easy access to the lake. One negative was you had to travel 8 miles one way to get rid of the garbage each day.

Wonderful Getaway

This is a lake front house with a beautiful view. It is well equipped, clean, and comfortable. It also came with board games that we enjoyed playing in the evening. The power was out the first day we arrived and it came back around 8:30 pm.

Great stay!! Wonderfully equipped 3 level condo! Great to have master and kids up stairs and extra family space on the ground level. Living room was a comfortable. All appliances worked great except for a finicky clothes dryer but we were able to make it work eventually. The LAKE VIEWS from the porches were amazing and having dock access for a boat rental and wave runner was fabulous! The water was refreshing and clear! The beach access was a cool feature when we didn’t want to jump off the dock! We will visit again and wouldn’t hesitate to use this dog friendly location!!
