Location: Lewis Smith Lake, Alabama, USA (1 hour from Birmingham, 2 hours from Nashville) View Map
Accommodations: House, 4 Bedrooms, 3.5 Baths (Sleeps 14)
This brand new home sits on a very private point lot with 700 feet of water frontage. It was designed for multiple families with kids. The view is absolutely spectacular with water on 3 sides and views from almost every room in the house. It is roughly 3000 square feet and has a additional 2100 square feet of balconies and decks. There are two great rooms, one for the adults and a second for the kids. The upstairs has 20' vaulted ceilings throughout. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops. The huge, custom built square table seats 12 for family meals and two additional bar top chairs are at the kitchen counter top. For outdoor cooking, there is a large, high end, stainless steel gas grill and a wood burning smoker.
There are two masters with one upstairs and the second down. The third and fourth bedrooms are downstairs. The game room includes a pool table, air hockey, ping pong, games and puzzles. We have chosen not to have a TV as it robs us of quality family time. I can tell you from personal experience that we have had some of our best times together here, without it. We do have wireless DSL, if you need to connect your laptop.
The outside balconies and decks wrap three sides of the house. The lighted walkway leads down to the enormous three slip boat house and swim platform. The water slide is connected to city water for hours of fun in the lake. A deck box is available with life preservers for all sizes. Pontoon boat rentals are available upon request for an additional charge. You are also welcome to bring your own boat. There is also a trampoline with safety nets for the kids and adventurous adults.
The boat house includes an open slip for 1 boat and additional side docking for 3-4 more.
Smith Lake is rated as the third cleanest lake in the country. You must see it to believe it. There are 500 miles of shoreline with over 21,200 acres of water. There is fantastic swimming, fishing, boating and skiing. Much of the lake is in the Bankhead National Forest with miles of undisturbed wooded shores and spectacular views.
We are located very close to the Smith Lake dam and is also near Duskin Point Marina (great for refueling and a quick snack). It is 55 minutes from Birmingham, 2 hours from Nashville and 4 hours from Memphis.
