Large kitchen with dining area including farm table and adjoining bar. Overflow can enjoy the screened-in dining area just beside.

Kitchen opens up to family room with large TV and gas fireplace. Double french doors open onto beautiful porch.

Annual Family Gathering/3 generations
The Nest never disappoints. 4 days/3 nights at Smith Lake is perfect for our crew. We swam at the dock, rented a pontoon boat…..for tubing and relaxing, & jumped from the rocky cliff. Ate lots of great food, had coffee on the dock at sunrise, and played lots of Pictionary & LRC at night. Lots of spaces in the house to spread out when needing space, kitchen is well appointed, beds are comfy. Pamela is communicative and responsive.

Feels like home away from home
This was our 4th stay at The Nest. We love the location and it feels like home when we walk in the door. The owner is great to work with and communicate with! The house is equipped with everything you need.

Smith Lake Nest
We had a great stay at "the Nest" on Lewis Smith Lake. The house was perfect for our family. Fishing out on lake in AM and evening, hanging out on dock and floating around the "lily pad" good bit of the day. We all want to come back next year.
