Enjoyed our stay!
4.6
This house is perfect for our family. The dock is wonderful. We do lots of swimming and sitting on the dock. The water is so clear. The house is somewhat choppy with stairs between 3 levels but it works for our family. Plenty of space to spread out with privacy. Love it!!! This is our second year here!!!
4.6
Lots of room for our family vacation. The dock is wonderful. Everyone had a great time playing there. Host very responsive when we had a couple of questions.
4.6
Great weekend with friends. Highlight is the excellent dock where we spend most of our time. Plenty bed/bathrooms, and the property manager is always quick to respond.
4.6
Our family really enjoyed this awesome place! The house had plenty of room comfortable beds, & one of the best docks for swimming & fun in the water. Not to mention the beautiful sunrises! It was also close to stores for those things we ran out of forgot. We would highly recommend this place for families!
4.6
This property is wonderful. Nice, clean, plenty of room & great location. Beautiful view! Host was very attentive & responded to all our needs & questions quickly. Definitely recommend this property.
4.6
This house is great for a couple of families. We LOVE the boat Dick where we spend most of our time. This was our third time vacationing together at this house and will be back!
4.6
We enjoyed the place. It had plenty of space for our family. The dock was fantastic for swimming and boating.
4.6
We loved how it was in between two marinas and how it was easy to get to different parts of the lake.
4.6
This is our 10th year at smith and our second stay at this property and new go to when visiting every year. Host is very responsive. Access to amenities is within 15 minutes if you happen to need anything. Water access and location is ideal as well.
4.6
We have been to Smith Lake a couple of years ago and feel in love with the place. We had four families at this year's get together and we thoroughly enjoyed the place. The weather was great, the water was great and our facilities were great !!!!
4.6
Amazingly perfect dock complete with shade, furniture, 2 slips, and very bright lights for easy docking. Oddly laid out house with lots of room including 2 porches and great comfortable couches and beds. Kitchen needs a couple more large pans/cookie sheets for preparing meals. Cold AC, convenient washer/dryers, plenty of refrigerator space. If you are arriving with your boat and some teens who want their own living room and like to sleep late-and others get up early, this is the place. Slough is easy to kayak, swim platform is plenty big, and you can call the kids to dinner from the porch.
4.6
We really enjoyed this rental!!! Very clean and the location was awesome! Property owners were very easy to deal with and the rental was wonderful for our family! I will rent this property again! Cant wait to go back!
4.6
THE GOOD: Owner responds quickly. The view is lovely. The lake is clear as always. House is large. Parking is ok. Yard is level enough to make traveling to the deck easy.
THE NOT SO GOOD: The house is older so I expect some imperfections, BUT, I think roaches, crickets and other bugs can be exterminated. They were crawling the walls and floors. The stairs going outside to the dock were in terrible shape with loose weak boards. The cleaning crew is not doing a good job, the dishes and silverware were dirty. The carpet going up the stairs is stained and filthy. The BBQ grill needs to be replaced, it caught fire while we were trying to use it. It is rusted and clogged with grease. I want to make clear that I did NOT contact the owner with any of these issues. I am sure he would have tried to do something. He needs to know these things to fix them if he desires to. Will I stay here again, no.
4.6
Great home for multi family's. Beautifully decorated, clean & beautiful lake views. Highly recommend.
4.6
We started going to Smith Lake last year, & have decided to make it an annual trip for our family. This was the perfect spot on the lake with easy access to fill up the boat & jet ski & a quick little boat ride to the rope swing & cliff jumping.
Easy to contact the owners to let them know of a few small issues, but nothing that couldn’t be taken care of.
4.6
Large property, really feels like two separate houses, so it is great for big groups. Everything was clean. The house does have wifi. The dock and lake were where we spent most of our time, perfect for swimming, fishing, and hanging out.
4.6
This is our second time at this location. There aren’t a lot of houses with six bedrooms so it fits are family. The host was very responsive and sent someone out for a drain issue quickly. Beds are comfy but there is one room they doesn’t get enough air at all so we ended up using an air mattress (so more like a 5 bedroom). We love the dock and that’s where we spend most of our time. The kitchen has everything you need to cook meals for a big family.
4.6
Lots of room. The best boat dock
Thanks!

We were down for a fishing tournament, was 5 minutes from the boat ramp at the dam. Loved the boat dock! Had room for parking 4 vehicles and 2 boats. Thanks!

We enjoyed this property soo much! The lake was beautiful and it was perfect for a big family!!!

The location of the property on the lake is amazing! Our family had a wonderful time since we spent the majority of our time on the lake. The house could use some cleaning especially in the carpeted areas and the kitchen. Dished and utensils were not clean. We had planned on using the gas grill multiple nights, however, there was not a propane tank. We had to borrow one from a friend.
4.6
Will consider again
4.6
We had a great time!!! Loved the dock kids enjoyed swimming and fishing
4.6
This is the second time we stayed here and it was just a good as the first time! I love the decks and docks! The two kitchens are helpful for a multi-family stay and they have many bedrooms, but also great open spaces to hang out and play games! We would recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet lake getaway.
4.6
This was our second stay and won’t be our last!

An older property. Bottom duplex had a musty smell.
4.6
Bumpy experience to start. I tried contacting the homeowner on our way in but did not get a answer.(It was close to 530 so technically after hours) Once arriving after 10 pm we did not have any access to the property without the lock box information. In this area we had no cell reception. After driving back into town to contact Vrbo and the homeowner we still didn’t have a answer but did gain access to the property a hour after arriving. The owners did follow up early morning and a few times the next day. The property was plenty big enough for our family. Things to note: the downstairs master is a walkthrough access to the upstairs unless you go outside and up. One of the bedrooms downstairs does not have air conditioning. Up the first set of stairs is the single room with a full bath which contains the second laundry. Continuing up the stairs to the second level is the other 2 bedrooms and bathroom. The house was good for us as we stay on the water the entire time. The dock was a great area for swimming. The kids enjoy the rock bank with plenty of clay to dig and play in. Good location for multiple families.
4.6
The dock is the best on the lake, we spent the majority of the time out there, and especially loved the gate on the second deck for high dives. The house is divided but was good to separate the group if people wanted quiet time upstairs. Maybe call out on the listing that there is no wifi (couldn't see it?) But other than that it was great.
4.6
This house has plenty of space and fit our family plus some! The dock was beautiful and held our boat and wave runners well. The only thing I would mention was the cleanliness of the upstairs part of the home. Hair was left in the shower and there were bugs on the shower floor. Dusty outside with a lot of cobwebs, but this is the lake so that can be understandable.
4.6
We had a great time at the lake over Memorial Day weekend. The house has been added onto and the master bedroom has to be walked through by everyone who is downstairs to go upstairs and vise versa. It was OK for us but if you're seeking privacy in the master bedroom, there is none if others are staying downstairs. The grandchildren had the time of their lives and there was plenty of room for them to play and sleep. It was really nice to have an upstairs and a downstairs for kids to play and adults to visit. The house is very spacious and accommodated us well. The owner was really nice and answered our calls and helped with all we needed. It was really nice to have two kitchens. The dock was great with little ones!

Was a perfect house for Paramount Tool to have their instal team stay for the week.
4.6
Renting was a breeze.
4.6
The owner is very prompt with responses! This home is as pictured/described. It is great for large family to spread out, but still room to be together upstairs and on dock as well!!
4.6
We had a wonderful family vacation here! Swimming at the dock was great and the view was beautiful. The house had plenty of room for all of us. It is a great location, close to the marina for gas and ice. We will be back.
4.6
This was our first Smith Lake experience and we have all agreed that it’s wayy better than the beach! The house was perfect! I highly recommend it! Plenty of room for the kids to play hide and seek, jump off the pier and swim. We brought our boat and used the Duskin Point Marina to put in the water, which was extremely convenient. We will be booking again soon!
4.6
This property was beautiful and well set up. The Family enjoyed their stay and we will be planning our next visit for next year at this location.

We enjoyed our stay. The view of the lake was awesome. Owner was helpful. Having two kitchens was great. Would rent there again

We just returned from an amazing vacation in the Aqua Vista. Our group consisted of 8 adults and 5 children and we all sleep comfortably. I have been vacationing on Smith Lake for many years and have rented 7 different homes. This house and location was one of the best! The kitchens were well stocked with everything we needed and with quality cookware just like we have at home (not the cheap stuff). Having 2 kitchens was so nice with our large group. The dock was amazing with the best view we have ever had! It has the benefits of being just on the edge of a cove where you avoid a lot of the boat traffic but still faced the big water so that you can see it all. Another bonus to this house was the proximity to Squirrel's Marina where we rented a pontoon and was able to get ice each morning for our coolers. We have stayed in houses on the lake before that were a good 20-30 minute drive from a store that sold ice. John was really nice to work with and was very prompt on answering any questions we had prior to and during our stay. You can really tell that he is dedicated to making his renters happy and comfortable during their stay. We are already discussing when our group can go back!!!
