Beautiful home on the lake. The home accommodated two families with a total of 10 perfectly. The kitchen was well appointed to cook along with the outdoor grills. A fun weekend was had by all! We would definitely rent this home again

This house was perfect for our group of 7 adults and 6 kids. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out and to gather. The kids had a blast. Great location, clean, and quiet. Very easy check in and check out. We hope to make a stay here an annual tradition.

We stayed at the Paul’s Place for Christmas and it was a great experience. The property is very well laid out, accommodating our large family needs quite well. Of note, Maggie had the house beautifully decorated for Christmas, creating a welcoming and festive atmosphere. Even with the cooler Virginia weather, we enjoyed the water resources, especially the floating trampoline. The kitchen was extremely well stocked and appointed, enabling us to pull off a complete Christmas meal with all the trimmings. The kids loved the game room setup, and the adults loved the fact that we had sufficient seating on the main level to enjoy lots of family time together comfortably. The views of the cove and lake were so relaxing, especially at sunrise and sunset, and the property provides many vantage points to enjoy those views. I would also like to point out that, while not ADA listed, this house did accommodate one family member in a walker well. The property also is located close to shopping, restaurants, and great things to do and see in the surrounding area. Maggie and David were great hosts during the entire process, and we look forward to returning here for family events in the future.

We had a wonderful short stay! There were 10 of us total from two families. Plenty of space for both private and family time. Rooms are spacious with sitting areas, large kitchen, great living room, space to play games and spread out in the basement, and fantastic views! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this property!

Hi, My family booked this house for our family Christmas. It was our first Christmas since my father passed and Maggie and David were outstanding hosts. The property was as described. Beautiful location with many things to do in the surrounding towns. If you are looking for a place for a long weekend or an extended stay, please consider this property, you won’t regret it!

We had a family gathering at this house and could not have asked for a better home. They owners made us feel so welcome with little touches. We've rented a lot of vacation places and none have been so well appointed. (especially the kitchen) The offer to use the paddleboard and kayaks was very kind, and some of us took them out, I hope we get to come back soon!

We loved our stay in this beautiful home! We are a group of 10 adults, who often use VRBO. In our experience, this was one of the best appointed homes we've stayed in; the kitchen was so well-stocked. It was very comfortable for a large group, and a great location (we played pickleball and rented a pontoon boat). Even on our rainy day, the layout of the home and game room made for a wonderful time. The owners were excellent communicators; we hope to rent this home again in the future!

Exceptionally clean throughout, living room provides plenty of seating for a large group, kitchen is very well equipped for cooking for a crowd. The weather was not real favorable for being in the water, so we enjoyed the pickle ball court. We are a 3 generation family who have been coming to SML since 2008. This was certainly one of the best maintained and most attention to details we have rented in fifteen years. The fresh flowers and fruit, smores kit, chocolates on the night stands lend a nice welcoming touch. As was earlier stated the weather didn't lend itself to spending much time in the water, but had the sun been shining brightly, the dock/party deck and water trampoline would have been amazing! With a multi generational family that is still growing it was great to find a place this nice that met our needs at a reasonable rate.

This house was the perfect site for a book club getaway for 6 ladies from Maryland. Everyone had their own bedroom and most had their own bathroom as well. The kitchen was well stocked and eating on the deck was lovely. We took the kayaks out and had a fire in the firepit - all in all, a fabulous time!

Thanks for allowing us to enjoy your wonderful home. We very much enjoyed the stay.

Tremendous location, all of the desired amenities, very clean, with a warm & cozy vibe. We hosted our kids, and 5 grandkids for a vacation on the lake, and couldn't be happier with our selection. Our first visit to SML, and this home made it memorable. We will definitely be back.

The Paul family Lake House offered everything we could have asked for and more. So much fun spending quality time with family, including breathtaking lake views, gorgeous weather, and magnificent sunrises. The double tiered deck was awesome for sunning or jumping into the lake. The kids especially loved the trampoline. So much to do too; fishing, swimming, boating, paddle boarding, kayaking, tubing, cooking out on the deck, playing games, quiet walks, outdoor firepit, basketball court, pool, dinner at nearby restaurants and a day trip to the winery! This was our family’s first time to SML, and it did not disappoint. The house was beautifully decorated, with comfy beds, a well-stocked kitchen, plenty of bath towels, linens, etc. We typically vacation at the beach, but SML offered so much more! Thank you so much David and Maggie for the goodies, the accommodation and your responsiveness! Your lake home is fabulous! We’re looking forward to SML becoming our family’s new go-to vacation spot for years to come!

Christmas get away, something new for the whole party. The property was perfect to relax and play games in the game room in the basement. Kitchen was well stocked and grocery store is close if you need anything. Beautiful and nicely decorated.

This house is everything that we wanted in a lake house. Entertainment for the whole family. My kids loved the Kayaks and the basement with games and TV. The rest of the family enjoyed upstairs with the amazing view, the well equipped kitchen and a nice living/dinner room. The bedrooms were also great. The only thing that I would change is maybe having one bedroom with twin beds. It would be a little better for the kids. We will definitely come back!!!

Had a lovely time relaxing with a friend and our children for the weekend. Home was comfortable and quiet. It was probably too cold for swimming, but we gave it a shot anyway! VRBO listing and host's check in/check out times were off by an hour, which was a minor thing but may be important to someone else.

It was the most magical, peaceful, serenity that we've ever stayed! The sounds of the water, the sun hitting your face, to the open atmosphere on the inside of the house felt so comfortable...
