Wonderful week at the lake house
Just got back from a week at the lake house. Great house, awesome location, excellent dock to just sit all day and relax at the lake. Also has a fire pit and lots of games for when the rain interferes with lake time. We enjoyed playing pickleball at the convenient walkable courts. 2 huge decks at the house with plenty of room for our group to eat outside and enjoy the weather and the wonderful lake views. Boat rentals were very close and super convenient from the house. All in all a perfect enjoyable week at the lake house.

Wonderful stay
This house was perfect for our family of 6 adults and 2 children. We gathered on the upper deck every morning for coffee and every evening for cocktails and dinner. We swam off the dock, and as a bonus, it provided an enviable place to do some remote work while we were there. We will definitely consider returning here for our next family vacation.

Perfect Lake Vacation Home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was just as described in the listing and very clean. Couldn’t have asked for a better location either. Beautiful views from both the decks and the dock. Very quiet and peaceful which is just what we were looking for. Homeowner was very responsive and helpful.

Cozy cottage, disappointing owner contact
Cozy cottage. Extremely clean. Plenty of bath towels for use during the stay. The house is on a small private cove which makes it relatively quiet. Much quieter than the larger and busier coves. The house has an amazing view of the main channel from the first and second floor. The views are perfect whether inside or outside. The house is also surrounded by beautiful mature trees that keep things cool on the deck and patio.
The dock is ok. It’s on the small side without remarkable furniture that we’ve seen on other docks. What is there is dated and not very comfortable. The dock house is equipped with a great refrigerator-freezer which was very convenient. The calmness of the cove made the dock great for family swimming and floating.
There are some disappointments.
The renter is responsible for hauling their own trash to the dump. The owner states that there is no trash collection in the neighborhood. This appears to not be true. We saw many of the other properties in this neighborhood pulling their trash totes to the curb.
There are kayaks at the house available for an additional fee. A rental at this price point should not have a charge for the kayaks. Other rentals do not charge.
The owner is too involved during the stay. He called to discuss his concerns with the water level of the lake, wanting to visit the property to check on things. Given that he has owned the cottage since the late 90’s I am sure that he knows that accurate water level and water release schedules are available on a web site. This was invasive and unnecessary.
The owner arrived before we left at the end of the stay. This did not change our check out time. Upon the owner's arrival he broached the subject of an uncharged pet fee. He had contacted us earlier via email and phone about this fee. We tried unsuccessfully to contact VRBO and requested he work with VRBO about the fee. He asked that we leave him cash for the fee. He ultimately got it taken care of with VRBO (on departure day) and we immediately paid the fee. This one-on-one interaction with the owner over the pet fee crossed the line.
The final interchange with the owner during our exit was his providing of driving instructions for my wife and daughter as they were leaving the driveway. There was something in the yard that he was concerned that they would hit on the way out. It’s a large driveway with more than ample room to stay off the grass. This was again invasive.

Relaxing Lake View Vacation
Very relaxing lake house! For a SML property the steps were very easy to navigate to the dock! Dock was great with TV, bluetooth speakers, and refrigerator. Felt very safe swimming off the dock. Not tucked in a creepy cove. Teens loved playing some of the board/card games. Enjoyed that all 7 of us were able to sit around the coffee table to play. Proximity to water accessible restaurants was a plus. The property listing was accurate. I’m a tea drinker so the only thing missing for me was a tea pot.

The property is as advertised, the location is perfect, we were fortunate with the weather, so everything went smoothly, and we had a great week. They have everything you need: dock with floating dock, kayaks for rent if wanted, kitchen well stocked, and a firepit with wood, starter and ignitor. Michael (Host) was very supportive, available, and accommodating. we would definitely stay here again.

AMAZING Property!!
This house far exceeded our expectations! For a rental home, it had everything you could possibly want and if you needed anything, all you had to do is ask! The pictures don't do it justice. It is much bigger than it looks. The dock and the lake were a highlight of our stay. The cove was great for swimming and kayaking and the proximity to multiple Marinas to rent boats, etc. was great. The owners and their son could not have been more helpful! I highly recommend and we would definitely stay there again.

Almost perfect
Super dock was great. We were there for morning coffee through watching sports at night at the dockside bar with TV, fridge, microwave, fan. Location great just inside a cove but with big water views. Owners super responsive. Only feedback is just a little updating of kitchen stuff as, for example, knives were usable but not sharp. Need one larger pot. But had everything we needed. We will definitely rent again.

Perfect location!
Our overall experience was really pretty good. The house slept everyone comfortably and had everything we needed. The house is decorated to the owner's taste, but we share some of those tastes so that was no issue.
The dock is awesome! Plenty of space and room to play. We could not have asked for more!
Interaction with the owner was fairly seamless each time and he answered all our of questions timely. We did have a minor hiccup in that we planned to bring our dog, but unfortunately we lost him before our visit. I reached out to the owner to inquire about a refund for the pet fee. I was told there are no refunds even though we weren't bringing a pet anymore, however, the owner did offer to credit that pet fee towards the kayak rental they have, despite the house description saying they have kayaks for use. We found that a little misleading, but we have our own kayaks so it was a non-issue.
We would definitely recommend this house to anyone and everyone looking to visit SML!

High Point is nestled at the end of a quiet community that includes great ammenities like a boat ramp,trailer storage and tennis courts. The property is close to everything including grocery stores and marinas. The house is cozy and comfortable,but a little cluttered. The boat house is awesome,including an upper deck and enclosed storage below. It also has a refrigerator and freezer which came in handy while we swam and boated. Overall, a great spot on SML!

The location was optimal, with gorgeous views from all sides, lovely swimming cove, and a spacious dock to accommodate a boat, and very comfortable for socializing and relaxing.
The Fox family were lovely hosts, gracious and responsive , and were available for all of our questions.
We will definitely return to Smith Mountain Lake and would welcome the opportunity to stay at this lovely home again.

The home is beautiful and clean. You can see the lake from every room in the house! The dock and landscaping make the lake easily accessible. Wifi access is great, which my children loved, you can even access from the dock. We saw all kinds of amazing wildlife. The property is in a cove, so boat traffic is low.

Great lake vacation.
The property was extremely clean, the layout handled 7 of us easily and the dock provided great access to the lake. The power boats can whip up the waves a bit by afternoon if you are kayaking. The kitchen could use some bigger non-stick frying pans for cooking but that was our only minor issue. We had great weather and a great time.

Dock and Deck were the places to be!
This was our 4th summer vacation to SML. We have learned each year what our family likes in a rental, location being #1 on the lake, amenities on the dock (as that is where we are 80%of the time), pet friendly, not too many steps or too steep of an incline to get to the water, and a good layout and # of bedrooms. Our stay at the Fox Lakation Home was a mixture of highs and lows.
Lows-- Upon booking early to get our preferred week through Home Away we were shocked that the costly deposit was due so early and not refundable. This forced us to purchase renters insurance for an additional fee. Our several interactions with the owner left us extremely taken back by response, tone, and early arrival that provided us an unwelcoming departure. House could stand many upgrades but the outside was so pleasurable, especially the decks.
Should have been informed of top step to the upper deck was a safety hazard, grill ignitor wasn’t working with nothing left for us to light the grill with, some of the tv’s were not working. Three of the bedrooms were crowded with extra chairs and no room to put your personal stuff. Living room was cluttered with so much unnecessary books and magazines, nick nacks. Many areas of the home were labeled owner and had their personal items everywhere that left very minimal room for your basic items.
Highs-- The porch swings were an excellent addition to the home. The dock was all that we hoped it would be. Property wasn’t steep and felt like you were right on top of the water from decks. Luckily we did spend 80% of the time outside soaking in the relaxing breeze, sound of the waves, and appreciating the large shade trees that covered the back of the home. The cove was delightful as we enjoyed the boats passing and seeing the sunset from the driveway.
