Upstairs, a loft area features two twin beds and a convenient half bathroom, accessed via steep steps from the main level.
Venture downstairs to discover a spacious master bedroom with a new king bed and access to a full bathroom with a tub shower. An additional smaller bedroom with a double bed offers extra sleeping space. Step outside to the patio, where a gentle walk leads to the dock, offering the perfect spot to relax by the water's edge.

Loved the old school vibe. View was fabulous. Loved the boat dock. This house was well equipped with everything needed. Both sets of stairs were a bit treacherous - but we managed! Home was as described - except for the beds and bath- (only 1 shower, 1 bathtub). I was also unaware there was a king bed on this property- and we did not bring sheets for that one. I hope this property is updated with actual beds and needed bedding. I will definitely come back with more friends!

Disliked: Cleanliness
The check-in was easy and the air conditioning worked well. The cleaning was done quickly because the crew failed to show up. We found shorts, underwear, and a half drunk can of Red Bull in the loft. The living area doesn’t accommodate 8 people. The kitchen appliances appear to be new. Steps up to the loft and to the downstairs are treacherous. There are many steps down to the dock that need to be disclosed. We left a day early.

Beautiful, rustic, and humble.

We had a group including my family of three, my wife’s two sisters and their significant others. We had tons of room to spread out and loved relaxing on the large deck with lake views and the floating dock provided hours of fun swimming in the lake and catching small fish off the dock. I brought my 21’ Pontoon which tied up nicely to the dock cleats! The cove is nice and quiet and doesn’t receive tons of wakes in the little corner. The king bed in the basement was comfortable! I slept great every night. It’s clear this house has been very loved and cared for in its lifetime! Pro tip: there’s a table that folds down from the wall (above and next to the couch) that’s perfect for setting up a food buffet!
Shrimp and crab cakes on the Murphy Table!

Smith Mountain Lake Retreat

This property is a rustic get-away nestled in a quiet cove. The property has a great new boat dock with swim platform. The slip stored the property owners boat, but were able to tie-off to swim deck for the wknd which was very convenient. The home has plenty of rooms for multi-gen family visits to the lake. The stairs going upstairs to loft and downstairs to walk-out bedrooms are steep so keep in mind during planning. Property is well maintained and has a rustic charm. We were our stay here again!

Great views and amenities for the price!

We had a wonderful time during our stay here. The dock was very convenient as we rented a pontoon boat for the duration of our stay, and the marina was a 5 minute boat ride away. The property was rustic with some modern amenities and the back deck was fantastic with plenty of shade to sit out all day. The patty deck was still closed but we still enjoyed swimming off the dock. We will definitely be back next year for a longer stay!
