About this property

Waterfront Cabin close to Bridgewater in the best cove with deep water at dock!

  • Enjoy SML from our beautiful, authentic log cabin with 3 bedrooms and 3 baths, centrally located on the lake , situated on a wooded natural lot on the water, with a beautiful view of the main channel. The cabin was expertly crafted, built in the 1980s with vintage logs circa 1820. Though the structural material is ~ 200 years old, it has all the modern conveniences inside including central heat and air conditioning, beautiful wood floors and solid wood doors.

    We have wifi and an HD TV with Blu Ray /DVD player and lots of movies, as well as books, plenty of games and a well stocked kitchen. Bring your swim suit and lots of sun block and take advantage of the huge, two level dock. Water depth at the dock is ~ 18+ feet at full pond. Quiet family friendly Cove is perfect for floating and playing in the water.Tie your boat or jet ski to the dock -- or make good use of the owners 3 kayaks, paddle boat and floating toys. Fish, play corn-hole (boards provided), or relax and read a book at the dock or on the big rear deck at the house. Grill like a boss? We gotcha covered. Feel like a hike? -- head over to SML State Park, only 7 miles away by car. Located in a quiet cove positioned just a couple hundred yards from the main channel (near R27), this is where you’ll find your R&R, with peace of mind knowing that you are still near all the conveniences you need – By car: Food Lion is 4 miles away and the Hales Ford Bridge is 7 miles. 40 minutes to Liberty University stadium and 1 hour 20 minutes to Lane Stadium in Blacksburg! It simply doesn’t get any better than Cabin Life on the Lake!

    There is a convenient public boat launch located about 12 minutes away by car and 5 minutes by boat, at Bridgewater Marina..

    Did we mention that there are two wineries within 2.4 miles (Hickory Hill Winery and Ramulose Ridge Winery)

    An excursion worth mentioning only 44 miles from the cabin, about a 55 minutes drive, is McAfee Knob (at the top of Catawba Mountain), one of the most enjoyable and scenic day hikes on the Appalachian Trail – Highly Recommended!

    We rent full weeks (Sun to Sun) in the summer; our cleaning service is set up for Sunday check out/in. If you wish to book something different, please send an inquiry and we can try to accommodate.

    The cleaning fee includes linen service. Please bring your own beach towels for the dock and/or boat. Contact owner to discuss occupancy limits. The cabin is well suited for two families, putting all the kids in the bunk room!

Cabin and Lake Life!

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. Listing description is accurate, but the experience was even better than we could’ve imagined. Great location @SML with grocery only 10 minute trip and easy boating to everything the lake has to offer. Swimming off the dock is fantastic, and we enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boat around the quiet cove. Grilling out on the deck and S’mores at the fire pit, hiking at the state park, and relaxing in the cozy, well-appointed cabin - love the rustic feel with all the modern amenities…we’ll be back!

Labor Day Getaway

Nice trip! The cabin was comfortable and cute. Plenty of room for us all. The walk to the lake was fairly short and the wide steps help a lot when you have bad knees! The dock was lovely with the refrigerator, chairs and a swing. We enjoyed being able to bring our pet! The kitchen is well-stocked with cooking tools, pots, pans and we didn't want for a thing! Thank you to our host for being communicative and informative -

Lake Vacay

Our family of 6 enjoyed our week at the cabin on the lake. The cabin is charming and met all of our expectations. We especially enjoyed the 2 level dock/boathouse in the quiet cove and the easy access to the main lake.

Serene, quiet and relaxing

The property was everything and more. The view from the deck to the water below was peaceful and serene. Kayaks and a paddle boat were at our disposal for some fun water activities. The house was comfortable and inviting with its log cabin feel. We had a great time!

Awesome property and location!

My family loved everything about this cabin. The cabin is very comfortable and equipped with everything you could need and the hosts have provided many extras including a well stocked kitchen, a hammock, corn hole boards, games, kayaks and paddle boat. The dock is a great addition that we were able to tie our boat to during our stay. The location on the lake is close to the main part of the lake but away from the busy boat traffic. The property is very wooded but has excellent path lighting to the dock and looks beautiful in the evening. The hosts where wonderful to work with and provided excellent communication throughout the entire renting process. We had the best time at SML and hope to return next summer to this same wonderful place!

Wonderful Cabin Stay

Truly an amazing getaway! Incredible stay in an authentic log cabin. The owners were fantastic to work with and very prompt on getting back to us with answers to our questions. The property is kept immaculate and is surrounded by trees that provide an incredible canopy of shade to help keep the cabin cool in the summer. An amazing double decker (docker?) with a neat bar area that allowed us to keep our drinks cold in the provided mini fridge. It also allowed us to store our life vests during our stay. We enjoyed the firepit during the evenings and made smores - which were a hit with our 2 grandsons. :) We loved having access to the paddle boat and 3 kayaks. And our 3 year old Golden Retriever loved the lake, as well. We couldn't keep her out of the water! :) The only thing that would have made the stay better was to have a boat so we could enjoy the entire lake. Next time, for sure!

This log cabin is legit

The workmanship of the cabin is very nice. It was built in the 1980s with reclaimed logs that are well over 100 years old. Really cool, but also very comfortable. The AC worked great. Appliances (dishwasher and oven) were maybe from the 1980s, but amazingly, they worked very well. There were good, sharp knives. The grill was decent and there was extra propane. There was adequate dishes, glasses, pots/pans, and silverware. We used the big iron skillet every day. The listing is slightly confusing/off. The BR listed with 2 queens has only one bed. There was a mattress in one of the closets, so we used that. The den listed with sleep sofa is the main family room. Beds were comfortable. No TVs in the bedrooms, but we actually brought one with a FireTV. The internet is good, with close to 100mbps down. The 3rd bathroom is in the basement with a separate entry. Not ideal, but it is convenient to the dock. There is also laundry in the basement which we put to good use. There are a lot of supplies in the dock shed, including kayaks, paddles, life jackets, floaties, and a small fridge. There is also a full size fridge in the basement that we used for drinks. We had an issue with dock repairs occurring during our stay. The owner did communicate with us to make sure it was ok. The company doing the repairs was very flaky, but the owner did everything he could to get them to finish. Some funds were refunded make up for the trouble and ownership was very apologetic. Overall, this is a nice place, in a very nice cove, with good ownership. I would recommend.

The Lane Cabin

The cabin is very comfortable and has a lot of charm. The location on the lake is excellent, the quiet cove is great sitting and swimming. By car it is easy (for the lake area) to get to the grocery and other stores.

Peace and Quiet

We had a wonderful stay at the lake cabin. We found the kitchen to be well appointed and the beds comfortable. We rented a boat and were able to enjoy cruises and fishing on the lake. We also hiked in SML State Park, played cornhole and visited the wineries. Our kids even did the "Polar Plunge" in the 52F lake water. Something for everyone. I am happy to say, I am the undisputed cribbage champion of the the vacation!

Perfect!

We booked this as a last minute option to celebrate NYE/New Year. What a wonderful property. Clean, well laid out, all amenities as described. We enjoyed everything - especially the views from the 2nd floor dock. Campfire each night, hike each morning (at the nearby State Park) and lots of relaxing in between. Highly recommend!!
