"The house was pristine. The bedrooms were perfect for our group of 6. The large dining room and kitchen made it easy to be together as a family while preparing and eating our meals. The back deck was so peaceful and lovely. One of my favorite parts of the house were the light switches in the bathroom. Not only did it have a light/fan but also a blue night light and a music button to hook up to your phone for bluetooth. The hosts were great and had a coffee station set up for us and also extra bathroom products incase we forgot anything. We would definitely stay there again. Don’t pass the place up if you are looking to stay in the Smith Mountain Lake area. "

"We had a truly wonderful stay at the condo on Smith Mountain Lake. From the moment we arrived, everything was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and welcoming. The condo itself was well-stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing visit, from kitchen essentials to cozy touches that made it feel like a home away from home. The views of the lake were absolutely stunning, and waking up each morning to the peaceful water and fresh air was such a treat. The location was perfect for both relaxation and activities. We enjoyed having access to the kayaks and being able to spend time out on the water, as well as exploring nearby trails and local spots around the lake. In the evenings, it was so nice to sit out on the balcony, unwind, and take in the sunset. Our host was wonderful—very communicative, helpful, and kind. They made sure we had all the information we needed ahead of time and checked in to make sure our stay was going smoothly. That level of thoughtfulness really made our trip even better. Overall, this was one of the most enjoyable and refreshing getaways we’ve had in a while. The combination of a beautiful condo, a peaceful lake setting, and a thoughtful host made it a five-star experience. We would absolutely love to return and highly recommend this stay to anyone looking for a relaxing, memorable escape at Smith Mountain Lake"

"A dream property for a big group. The bedrooms and en suites were comfortable for multiple families. The game room and bar area was a great space to hang out with 4 TVs! The dock space was really nice, but not many cleats or space to tie multiple boats. There were no stairs to the water which is a huge plus for this lake. "

"Beautiful lake view! We've been coming to SML on Labor Day weekend since 1997. We've rented larger homes and a few smaller ones. This one checked the boxes...clean, close and easy walk to the dock, well appointed with all the amenities you could need, appears to have been recently updated. The host was great and easy to work with...even added some simple things that were unexpected extras."

"Overall just an amazing week. The property is perfectly positioned, and the beach (especially with young kids) was incredible. The house was very comfortable and well laid out, although it is a bit on the older/outdated side. The basement was a bit musty and we ended up not sleeping anyone down there. Regardless, we and an amazing time."

"Good communication and instructions for the stay. Close to the lake. With passes from Bernard’s Landing, we were able to bring a boat and dock fairly close to the room. "

"Top notch. Stunningly beautiful home on the lake. Comfortable beds and everything you could ask for in the house. The game room was so much fun on our rainy day; provided hours of fun, though shuffleboard was the family favorite.For us, the days (and nights) were spent on the dock. Morning coffee on the lake …. what a way to start the day! Relaxing, fishing, and enjoying the views right on the water. Both sunrise and sunset were equally beautiful. The property has everything you need to enjoy the outdoors. Sunset kayaking and the trampoline were family favorites. We would absolutely do this again. It was just what our family needed to reconnect, recharge, and relax! As a side note: while the home doesn’t specify that it is handicap accessible, it absolutely is. Walk in showers and everything you need in the downstairs rooms to enjoy your stay for those that may have issues with mobility. Additionally, the lot is a very gentle slop to the lake. Easy for those with difficulty walking."
