Recent Smith Mountain Lake guest reviews

A little slice of paradise! Amazing views during peak season of the fall foliage. We loved the hot tub and game room. Such a beautiful property in an outstanding location. We would recommend this home to anyone wanting a private and peaceful retreat. Thank you for sharing this home with us. Planning to return.

Great layout for 12 family members (ages 8 years to 65 years). The layout offered everyone privacy while also great gathering spaces. Kids (young and old) LOVED the MANY games, ping pong table and strong wi-fi for our Nintendo enthusiasts were all available in the basement. Dock space was AWESOME! Weather permitted lots of fishing and even some swimming. The backyard does have a very sharp drop to the water. The sidewalk and stairs can be extremely slippery with morning dew and rain. Just be cautious traversing up and down the hillside. Have already recommended this location to friends!! Thank you for a great stay!

This was the perfect place to reconnect with old friends and share a quiet few days. The views from inside and outside (decks) the house were beautiful. The water was a constant pleasure to see. The internet worked great when we watched a football game. The men enjoyed the pool table. The covered deck was a wonderful place to sit and chat, even when it rained. The rooms were big and there were a number of different places to sit and connect. There were only four of us but the house could easily have accommodated many more folks. And I have never stayed in a rental with a better equipped kitchen! The house was very clean and linens were well stocked when we arrived. All in all, this was the most perfect place to have a peaceful escape from the world and reconnect with old friends.
