Map & Owner's Profile
Waterfront Paradise on Smith Lake
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Lewis Smith Lake
Jane and I grew up with a rustic cabin on Smith Lake in both families; we knew that Smith Lake offered the very best waterfront experience available. We were extremely fortunate to find the perfect lot and spent 2005 under construction. Our home offers quality and comfort combined with a unique cottage style and all the amenities to make your stay perfect. Shopping and dining are six miles away in Curry or drive fourteen miles to the Super Wal-Mart in Jasper.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Smith Lake is widely known for fantastic fishing and some of the cleanest water in the country. It is a finger lake with channels of very deep water winding up the many valleys back from the dam. Many homes offer wide vistas from high bluffs and beautiful expanses of water. Too often this translates into dozens if not hundreds of steps down to the water. Ours is truly a rare lot that offers deep year round water coupled with fantastic views of wide water vistas while affording water access with few or no steps. Take a look at the picture of our boat house ramp taken from our patio. Better lake access can not be found! Come let us make your Smith Lake vacation the very best vacation experience of your life. That is what we live for.
