About this house rental
Recently Modernized Home, Decks, and Docks within the last year. Our lake house is located on a quiet, deep water cove, which can be enjoyed from the large deck or the downstairs covered patio. The upstairs has a fully equipped kitchen with bar. The living room and dining area look at the lake through sliding glass doors which open on to the very spacious fully furnished deck. Two picnic tables and outdoor furniture cover the deck. There are two bedrooms and a bath with the Master Bedroom opening onto the deck through sliding glass doors which offers a beautiful view of Smith Mountain Lake. Our home is conducive to total relaxation and fun for the entire family. The downstairs opens to a covered patio from the den. This patio is amply furnished with a swing, corn hole set, fire ring, picnic table, and gas grill. There are 2 bedrooms with full size beds providing beautiful views of the lake and a utility room containing a washer, dryer and refrigerator. Highspeed WiFi access. The house has central air and heat. There are ceiling fans in all of the bedrooms. A lighted walkway with a handrail provides easy access to the lake. A "snack shack", bi-level docks and a large sun deck. New decking and handrails installed last summer. There is both a refrigerator and microwave for your use in the Snack Shack. Two kayaks, one canoe along with a pedal boat for playing in the cove . The dock has an area for a boat to be tied along with ladders to exit the water when swimming . A floating dock is anchored near shore to enjoy the sun. Adjacent to the driveway to the lake house there is a 5 acre park with tennis and pickle ball courts, along with a basketball goal.

Great spot. House is a little dated but we liked it. Outside areas are great. Dock and bar are amazing

We brought our boat and enjoyed a week in July. Quiet cove excellent for swimming and great location on the lake. House is as described, dated but functional. Rear of house faces north so you’re in shade most of the time on the rear porches, which I think was nice.

Perfect place for those wanting to spend more time on the water with close proximity to boat rental, restaurants, and grocery. And its a good place for those wanting to spend more time at the lakehouse.... has what you need but the place could use a good update.

The floors were in desperate need of sweeping, the basement door is falling apart and won't stay open unless propped, the mattress covers need to be replaced. The location on the lake is great and close to rental facilities, but I wouldn't stay here again. Thankfully the toilets were clean.

My family and I very much enjoyed our stay and the location and view were amazing. The upper level of the house was very nice, the lower level was was very dated but supplied extra space for our family. The docks were great for the kids to fish off of and dock our boats. The only drawback was that they don’t allow us to bring our dog.

Kitchen was not clean. We had to clean dishes (greasy) and clean the oven. Beds were not comfortable. My 12 year old niece was climbing out of the lake and the stairs attached to the dock board pulled off. We stayed 3 nights on the 2nd night the AC quit working and stayed off until after we left 11/2 later. Although the owners seemed nice enough the property is very old. Only 2 of the smoke detectors worked. The railing going to the bottom floor was inadequate.

Nice and quiet and lots of shade. Could sit on the deck without sweating to much. Good place to relax and unwind. Probably very pretty in the fall

Nice to have a fridge, kayaks and shade at the dock. Pickle ball and basketball courts were convenient and in good shape. Steep driveway and stairs.

The downstairs needed some deep cleaning and bug dis infestation. Over all the home was suitable, it just needs some updates. We enjoyed our stay tho.

Overall, we had a good experience at this property. The view from the lake house was great and we also enjoyed the dock and floating dock - including the fun jump off from the sun deck dock! The location of the cove was convenient and private. There was a tree in the way of where it looked like we should have docked our boat, but it worked out because we could tie to the other side. My biggest concern was the beds, they were not very comfortable and quite squeaky. We also did not realize this property did not include sheets or bath towels - which is fine, but I wish it was more apparent on the description, so we could have brought our own. The grill also appeared to be leaking gas, so we were not able to use that either. The core of the place was quite nice, but I think some updates would make it even better.
