About this property

Charming 4-bedroom house in the heart of Smith Lake in Crane Hill

  • Come visit this beautiful lake home, nestled in the heart of Smith Lake. Over 3500 square feet with 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms and sleeps 12 comfortably. Look forward to beautiful views, gorgeous sunsets and year round, easy water access. Amenities include full kitchen, bbq grill, outdoor fire pit, indoor wood burning fireplace when in season (November-March) and WiFi internet access. There are several smart TVs throughout the house for you to login to your favorite apps. Enjoy the beautiful boat house with an open slip for your use as well as a large swim deck with ladders. Be sure to bring your fishing equipment as the dock features an underwater dock light conducive for fishing. There is a kayak with paddles available for use along with a paddle board.

    -You will be about 2 minutes by water to the Dam
    -Only 5 minutes by water to Duskin Point Marina. This marina offers boat/jet ski rentals.
    -Rock Creek Marina (where you can feed turtles and fish) is about 20 minute by water.
    -"Big Bridge" aka Trident Marina is about 20 minutes by water. This marina offers boat/jet ski rentals.

    This is an excellent location for fishing off the dock/shore. The Country Mall has live bait and fishing tackle for purchase. There are also fishing guides who will pick you up on the dock- our favorite is Stripemaster's Guide Service- Capt. Mike Perry.

    Bring your own life jackets and fishing gear. There are towels for bathing but bring your own beach towels. Don't forget the sunscreen!

Great layout for a lake house. Room to throw the kids downstairs (ping pong was a nice touch). Dock and cove is great. Owners were super helpful.

Home was warm and inviting. The host thought of all the little things to take care of guests. Steep driveway and narrow road to get there, but that seemed to be common in the area. That took some getting used to, but would not deter us from staying there again. Overall, this was a great place to relax and unwind. We would definitely stay there again.
