Loved staying at Spikes Place! Kathy and Spike are both nice folks. The condo/house is great as it comes with a lot of lake toys. I love the SUP and kayaks. Dock is very spacious- even when sharing with other guests. We also did a charter with Kathy that was really great!

There were four men that stayed May 19 to 25. We were there to night striper fish. House was clean and had the full use of both docks and dock house. The fish cleaning station was great with electric and running water. As Spike and Kathy are both guides they also gave us info on where to fish. Great people and we will be back.

Spike and Cathy are wonderful hosts. The property is beautiful. The place I rented was clean, and cozy. Everything that I needed was in the kitchen. And if you love to fish they are great guides. Plus you can dock your boat right there and even clean your fish at the cleaning station. WE CAN'T WAIT TO COME BACK!!!!

Owner of the property called me a week ahead of the stay to give me very clear directions and instructions. The property has a wonderful view of a nice cove as well as parts of the larger lake. The unit was very comfortably furnished and the kitchen was well equipped. Everything was super clean. There's even a very talkative cat that patrols the property and will gladly come if you call it!

Truly an amazing location on this beautiful lake. Spike's place was the perfect size for our small family and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay on Smith Mountain Lake. Kathy was super helpful and responded quickly to any questions we had. The surrounding neighborhood was safe and peaceful. We were so thankful for the opportunity to stay and look forward to making another trip soon.

Description of place was accurate, Spike and Kathy are excellent and available for any needs you have. If we had more time would have asked to go on fishing trip with them. We had very good time and spent Thanksgiving there. Considering going there next summer and renting the larger unit.

House was great and in a great location. Kathy and Spike are awesome as a host and hostess. Very accommodating, knowledgeable and accessible. They present a complete package, house, guided fishing charters, knowledge and information on the surrounding area, and the presence of a great new friendship if you are open and wanting to make that connection. They were fully available, but not intrusive or overseeing even though they live in a property on the premises. This is their means to make a living but it truly shows that they love what they do! We used Kathy as our fishing guide and we had a great day on the lake with her. The charter leaves from their dock on the property you are renting, making it super convenient. We have already plans in the works to bring our family next year. Definitely one of our most enjoyable rents on VRBO.

This is a beautiful condo with amazing views of the lake. The hostess was friendly and gladly helped us get our boat to the dock and showed us everything we needed to know for a perfect week. The condo was super clean and well set up so you don't have to run to the store for minor things. Smith Mountain Lake is huge lake and you can see something new each day you venture out. I highly recommend Spike's Place for your next lake vacation. We are looking forward to when we can go back!

The place was very comfortable for a family of 4 and a dog. Views are great and we spent a lot of time in the water right off the docks. Kathy and Spike are great hosts, ready to help with any request. I strongly recommend a fishing trip with Kathy or Spike while you are staying with them. We didn't just have fun but also guaranteed ourselves good dinners for the entire week.

Second time at SML and we picked Spike's for the stunning view right outside the patio. Serene, calming, and just plain beautiful! Kathy and Spike were wonderful hosts. We even had fresh herbs to cook dinner with from the garden! We will be back, and we had an absolute delightful stay.
