About this house rental

Still Waters Getaway is located in the Beachwood West community and is perfectly situated on a 2.5 acre wooded setting in a quiet, deep water cove of Smith Mountain Lake between channel marker R31 and R32. The perfect place to enjoy all the water sport activities on the lake, or a quiet swim right down the hill at the dock. A gently sloped walk leads to the water's edge featuring stationary dock with party deck and bar area. You can enjoy the sun, fish, or jump off the top part of the dock and swim around without being bothered by boat traffic, noise, or wakes. A canoe, and 3 kayaks are also available for you to enjoy. Great game room with pool table and video arcade are available to round out the day, this home equipped for a fun filled family vacation. We are close to Bridgewater Plaza where there are numerous stores, restaurants, and night time entertainment. There are several places close by to rent boats, personal watercraft, and tubes. Come create your great vacation memories. Don’t forget you can bring the dog!

There are 3 bedrooms, sleep sofa, a 4th sleeping area in the basement, and 3 Baths. All linens - sheets, pillows and pillow cases, and bath towel sets are included.

The entry level features the kitchen and living room/dining room area with a flat screen TV. Doors leading to a deck overlooking the lake where you can enjoy a meal on the deck, maybe something special from the grill, or just sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Also on the entry level, a bedroom(with a Roku tv) with a king size bed, and a full bath await you.

Up one flight of stairs brings you to the loft which overlooks the entry level living area. On this level you will find the 2 additional bedrooms(with Roku tvs) with queen size beds, one with access to its own private balcony with fantastic views. Also on this floor will be the second full bathroom.

On the lower level you'll find the 4th sleeping area, this includes 2 twin day beds, each with a twin trundle bed that can be rolled out and positioned where needed, for a total of 4 twins. The third full bathroom can also be found on this level. The remaining lower level areas are all fun and games and features a pool table, full sized 2 player arcade game(3000+ games), flat screen TV, and wet bar area. There is a wet bar features a full size fridge w/ ice maker, microwave, coffee maker and additional seating. You will also find a full-sized washer and dryer for your convenience. A sleep sofa can also be found in the game room. Exit the game room to the lower level covered deck and terrace to enjoy additional lake view or have a swing.

The gently sloped path leads to the water's edge featuring stationary dock, upper party deck, and lower bar(w/ fridge) area with porch swing and hammock. We also have floating dock at the water lever to allow easy access to the water for the canoe and kayaks. At the dock - swimming is great, deep water(15-20 feet at the end of our dock) in a secluded cove - no wake zone! You can enjoy the sun, fish, or jump off the top part of the dock and swim around without being bothered by boat traffic, noise, or wakes. A canoe and 3 kayaks(2 single and 1 double) are also available for you to enjoy. We are close to Bridgewater Plaza where there are numerous stores, restaurants, and nighttime entertainment. There are several places close by to rent boats, personal watercraft, and tubes.

To the right of our main dock complex you'll see an additional swim platform and 3-slip dock area, this is shared with a couple neighbors and is something you have access to as well. Our slip is closest to the shore line with the jet ski lift. While there is plenty of room to tie up your boat to our main dock(the boat lift is not available for guest usage), you have access to this slip if needed - we just ask that you don't tie up anything to the floating swim platform, you are welcome to tie up to the floating dock attached to our main dock.

Upon your arrival you'll find starter items...toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags, laundry detergent, dish detergent, hand soap, and kitchen towels to get you started for your week.

Bath towel sets are included for 10 persons - please do not use down at that lake. Bed linens are provided as well.

WIFI included.

Just also wanted to add a note about our driveway. If you read some of the reviews, the one negative comment we get is about the driveway. We are in the mountains, the word "mountain" is in the name, so yes, our driveway may be steep, but our home is closer to the water. We have a mini-van and have no problems with the driveway. Again, on the plus side, since our home is closer to the water, the walk from the house to the dock is shorter and less steep. Our neighbors on the other hand...their home is at the top of the hill, easy driveway, but have a long, steep walk to the water. If you were to compare our home to others in the area, I think being closer to the water with less steps far out weighs any negatives related to driveway. If you have any questions or concerns about this, please reach out, I'm more than happy to discuss.

Very nice stay. Spacious (for 4), clean and great location. Wonderful dock (rented a pontoon boat), kayaks provided, and updated kitchen and bathroom. Could use new mattresses, but overall, sweet.

Just finished a great week at this property. Our group included my husband and me, our 26-year-old son, our 21-year-old son and his girlfriend, and our two dogs (first time bringing them to the lake). It was perfect for us. The kitchen was extremely well-equipped and had newer appliances. The large dining table was great for eating and evening games. The extra fridge downstairs was great for drinks. Though we didn’t use the pool table much or the arcade games at all, they are a nice addition in the basement. Beds were comfortable. As others have said, the driveway is no joke. But the parking loop makes it infinitely easier to maneuver. We had no problem with our Suburban, even with two other cars parked there. There are a lot of stairs down to the dock, but it’s not as steep as some properties we’ve stayed at. It does get a little slippery after rain, but there are railings all the way down. Dock was spacious. Extra floater was nice, although we didn’t have access to it much as the renters next door had stuff tied to it off and on all week. There is a ladder to get from the upper dock to the lower dock, so beware of that if anyone in your party has mobility issues. The dock has ample seating, a hammock, a swing, lights, and electricity. There’s also a fridge and a bar area. Everything you could need. Location is about 20 minutes driving from Food Lion, the trash/recycling place, and the marina. We would rent again!

The house is comfortable and clean, probably the cleanest vacation house I’ve ever seen. The dock is perfect with lots of room including space under roof with shade. The cove is quiet, perfect for swimming. We rented a pontoon boat and were able to dock it at the floating dock easily. There are a lot of stairs to the dock but they are wide & sturdy & lighted at night. The driveway is steep but the turn around at the bottom is helpful. We had no trouble in a Chevy Traverse. Kitchen is well stocked, appliances & grill are newer. We cooked all of our meals and had everything we needed. 3 fridges & washer and dryer were a nice convenience. It was HOT outside all week and the AC kept up nicely. The basement area was perfect for our 3 teenage boys. We spent a lot of time playing the arcade game and even set a new high score! The trash drop off was new for us but the place listed by the property manager was convenient. I do wish there was a secure place to keep trash outside until you are ready to take it away. We will be back for sure!

I booked this lake house for a family reunion and it was fantastic! Everyone loved the property, especially relaxing on the dock by the lake. My favorite relaxation time was before everyone woke up with a cup of coffee on the sun deck. We spent plenty of time by the water but also enjoyed the other amenities, particularly the game room and the deck with the grill. Owner was quick to respond to any inquiry. I would definitely book another stay at this property in the future!

Had a wonderful time fishing off the dock with our grandchildren. When we arrived the grill was inoperable and the owner was great in allowing us to pick up a replacement and reimbursing us in a timely fashion. The driveway is steep but doable and even easier if you use the circle as posted. I wouldn’t try a trailer there though. Kids enjoyed jumping off the upper deck and we all loved the use of the boathouse and kayaks. If I had one complaint it would be the beds. We prefer firm support and the beds all have spring mattresses that are either worn out or just poor quality. I was happy to get home to better nights sleep. All in all it’s very spacious to give everyone their own space. Love the 3 levels and 3 fridges counting the boathouse! Thanks for memories I wouldn’t trade for anything!

My son likes to get away with 3 of his school friends each year for his birthday. They are 15 now. This place was PERFECR! They all slept on the lower level and had their own space. Master bedroom on 1st floor was great for me to keep an eye on them amd hear what they were doing :). The lower level had a pool table and arcade game that played over 100.classic 80s and 90s arcade games. Grill might need replacing soon but worked fine for us. House was stocked with linens and towels. House is recently renovated. New appliances. AC/Heat worked great and we had to use both. Kitchen os well stocked. Make sure you bring food to cook or you are driving 20 minutes to go eat. We cooked breakfast and lunch and ate dinner out. They boys fished a lot and gpt a kick out of jumping off the double decker dock. Water is deep below the dock. More than 10 feet. Plenty of personal boats and life preservers for 4 of them. Wish the outlets there didnt work (one of the boys bought a powered speaker that was super loud and i am sure annoyed the neighbors before i got him to turn it down). But great for charging phones. There is a bar on the dock for adults. Firepit. Easy to scrounge up kindling. I only slept in thr master king size bed. It was comfortable. Boys managed to figure out sleeping 4 in the lower level which also had a full kitchen and bath. The driveway freaks you out the first time but a Honda Odyssey had no problems navigating. Super clean. 5 stars

We have stayed here several times on spring break to celebrate our daughter’s birthday. Is the perfect dock for hanging out with friends and family, and the teens love the pool table and their own space downstairs, the adults love the big table upstairs to play cards. Owners have updated the main bathroom and the basement since we stayed there last, which is really nice.
