We really enjoyed our stay. The property was clean, and there was more than enough room for our family of seven. My son caught a nice size Bass fish from the boat dock. Pop's Place exceeded our expectations. We would love to come back again next year.

Fantastic stay

We spent a week here and enjoyed our time immensely. The home is beautiful, the lake is fantastic and it was a great time of relaxation and fun. Our only issues were the back patio needs to be powerwashed, the hammock was in pieces and the Kayaks advertised as something we could use were filthy and one of the paddles was broken. In addition, there are no lifejackets available for use as required by law as we understand. We were happy to clean up the Kayaks and we did use them although before we were aware of the lifejacket requirement. Despite this, it was still in our top 3 of vacation experiences and I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a wonderful property, relaxation and simply outstanding views.

Lake trip with 5 kids and their grand parents

My wife and I took our 5 kids to Smith Lake for 5 days. My wife's parents came also. We had an amazing week! The house is beautiful and accommodated our group very well. We ended up not using one of the bed rooms even with 9 people. It is an easy walk down to the boat dock, not too many steps like a lot of the houses on Smith Lake. Thanks for an amazing stay!
