There are gorgeous views of the pool, lake and the mountains from the living room. The unit has been well maintained and was better than we remembered. Alex was extremely responsive and excellent host. This is my top choice penthouse unit in Bernards Landing!

Condo was very neat, clean, and organized. Didn’t feel like I was lost and looking for things all week. Loved all of the labels! The pool at our building was perfect (even if it was a lot of stairs to climb). The amenities that went with Bernard’s Landing were perfect for my son with special needs, especially the pool table and the basketball hoop inside the racquetball court. Our grown family of six felt very comfortable with the layout and the amount of space in the condo. I would recommend it.

Condo was well stocked, clean, and had a beautiful view. We were very happy with our accommodations and will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend for people with children that love water activities. Loved that the home was close to everything and we slept so well!

We enjoyed the stay quite a bit. It was our first trip to Smith mountain lake, and Bernard's landing was great. The pool out back was my 6 year old daughter's favorite, and the little sandy beach by the community center was our 3 year old son's pick.
We were only there for a few nights, but the condo suited our family. It was well appointed with most everything you would need. It's very close to all Bernard's Landing's amenities, and fairly close to other amenities and infrastructure around SML.
I would recommend this property to other families and would happily stay here again at some future point when we vacation at SML.

All 5 of us enjoyed every minute in this beautiful condo and all the many included amenities of the resort, a pool just below the unit, tennis and pickleball courts, etc... There are courtesy docks to keep our boat while there for a small fee. We were impressed with how well equipped this place was and having 3 full bathrooms was also exceptional. The owner was friendly, responsive, and provided thorough instructions.

Our family of six had an excellent experience staying at Alex’s property. It was just as described. The view of the mountains and lake from the main family room was beautiful!! Alex was a wonderful host and so easy to communicate with. He provided us with helpful information before our visit.
This was our family’s first time visiting Smith Mtn Lake and it did not disappoint. The amenities at this resort were great. The pool, hot tub, beach and basketball kept our kids busy during our spring break trip. It was also a nice, scenic place to walk around. Thank you for a great stay, Alex!!

First off, kudos to the owner who helped us out greatly when we needed to extend our stay 4 days. Condo was well appointed with a great view. We stayed about a month and it was a lot of fun getting to know the area and the locals.

One of the best views we’ve had in coming to SML for years. The listing was very accurate to property and the communication before, during and after our stay with the owner was amazing. Would stay again!

We’ve gone to SML many times but this place with the whole Bernard’s landing atmosphere was amazing. We loved everything. The convenience of having the lake, pool, and boat dock right there was priceless. We would definitely stay here again.
Our host was great at emailing me back quickly after my numerous questions. We were there for a wedding (ours) and it was extremely stressful. The one thing that was smooth and easy was everything about renting this place. I never had such an easy experience renting a vacation spot.
We are extremely pleased with the house, the view, and the location. We would definitely stay here again.

We attended a reunion at the lake with some old friends. Most of the time was spent at a house up the road, but having a nice, quiet place to spend the night was appreciated. Nice place, Thanks!

We had a wonderful family vacation! Alex was great to work with. Alex was very detailed when we asked questions, and always available when we had questions. Great location with pool right below condo, dock, Napoli restaurant, Bernie’s store all so close. The condo had all the comforts of home. Please be aware this is the top floor, so has several sets of steps to get to. This was no problem for our family, but could be for older couples and families. Thank you for sharing your home with us! A good time was had by all! Can’t wait to return!

The condo was exactly as described. We enjoyed easy access to the pool, lake, and club house. The only item that was a little unclear was regarding trash removal. It was definitely further than expected especially while carrying trash. Otherwise, the trip was amazing and I am looking forward to returning.

Great location, great hosts!
We stayed for a long weekend over Memorial Day and this was our first time visiting SML. The amenities were perfect for our needs, condo extra cozy and homey, and view was gorgeous. Our son especially enjoyed watching the boats from the vast windows overlooking the lake. The location was a nice balance of convenience and privacy, and having the pool just downstairs a major perk.

Wonderful place to stay with a beautiful view!
The condo was very up to date with an amazing view of the lake and mountain! Loved that it was right above the outdoor pool! The owner was super friendly and helpful and very quick to answer any of my questions as well!

Absolutely Incredible!
My best friend and I are traveling therapists and our first rotation was in Virginia. Looking for a place to temporarily stay for our rotation was stressful, however finding Alex and his home was life saving! Alex is the absolute best host and has made so much effort into making sure our stay here is as comfortable, clean, and enjoyable as it can be. This place has been our saving grace to come home to after a long day of work. There is literally everything you can imagine provided in this home regarding kitchen utensils/appliances, laundry and toiletry items, extra sheets and blankets, furniture/beds and space (I'm sure I'm missing something). The small knit community and neighbors here are so kind and love visitors. Any recommendation for activities/restaurants/etc was provided by Alex. His has been so good at communication and willing to accommodate our any need. Alex and his home has made our experience here in Smith Mountain Lake way better than we even imagined!

Holiday stay
We had a wonderful stay!! The place was clean and had everything we needed. Lovely deck overlooking the lake and we had great weather for December so we were able to enjoy it. Would love to visit in the summer to enjoy the pool that is so close!

Simply Perfect
Our family enjoyed visiting this SML property. Everything was simply perfect! We especially loved the view, having a bathroom for every bedroom and the guest friendly accommodations. I don't think there was anything at all that we wished we had.
Thanks so much for opening your home to us!

Perfect getaway for family
Very comfortable, thoughtfully administered, A+ experience. We visited in October and enjoyed every aspect of the resort. We went boating, swam in the indoor pool, used the rec center, and played at the beach. We will be back for sure, as it was a great time away for our family. Thanks again, Alex & crew!

Wonderful Condo
This was a perfect place at smith mountain lake for our 3 year-old, my husband and I. Alex was a great host allowing us to check in a little early since it was available. We could walk to several spots to access the lake and we made use of the clubhouse pool and gym. Our son enjoyed playing with the toys and games in the kids rooms and the kitchen was well stocked with what we needed to cook meals. Beautiful view from the deck and also star gazing at night was spectacular!

Best Mini Vacation
We stayed for a long weekend in this condo and it was the best mini vacation. We loved the condo. It was beautiful, spacious and well stocked. We would love to stay here again sometime. The location to the pool and dock was perfect. We enjoyed swimming, boating, tubing, and fishing. We also loved sitting on the balcony every morning with our coffee watching the sunrise. We will definitely repeat this vacation!

Amazing space
This was my second time at Bernard's Landing and this was amazing! The space was clean, orderly, and gave everyone room to spread out. We LOVED the loft and the deck! The host was quick to communicate and help with anything we needed. We will be booking here again!

Great Lake getaway
Lovely condo, just perfect for a family of 4, overlooking the lake and small pool. Very clean and comfortable. It was a nice surprise to find board games and activities for kids stashed in the closet, and the loft bedroom with skylight was nice.

Very comfortable, convenient and well stocked! Easy access to all amenities. We especially enjoyed the little beach with our grandchildren and the convenience of picking up the rental boat and accessories right in front of the condo. We’ll come again.

Perfect Lakeside Getaway!
This is an absolutely magnificent vacation spot and a great place to stay. The lofted master suite lends a lot of character. The lake + mountain view from the living room and deck is as relaxing as any I've experienced. Interior is spotless and modern, wifi is fast, and all appliances worked perfectly. Will return next time we visit Smith Mountain Lake.
