Beautiful location on Smith Mountain Lake! Communication with our host was excellent. Our host generously left our daughter graduation balloons, chocolates and champagne for all of us to celebrate the occasion. The townhome was very clean and we appreciated having some shampoo, soap and other essentials. Thank you Alla for your hospitality.

My sisters and enjoyed a long weekend getaway and also hosted my son and daughter in law who traveled from NC. We had a beautiful stay, the views from the balcony were wonderful, saw the deer every morning. Very peaceful and quiet area, about a 15 minute drive to local restaurants. We visited Smith Mountain State park a few times, which is a beautiful park, about a 30 minute drive on the other side of the lake. We also enjoyed swimming right off the dock at the condo! There was plenty of room at the condo for everyone and it was beautifully decorated and very clean. Would certainly stay again!

Lovely townhome. Beautifully decorated, furniture like brand new, beds very comfortable, and in a great location. The unit has everything you need for cooking. The owners have added extra touches in the bathroom in case you forget your toothbrush or soap. Best part the townhome had are kayaks and outdoor games. It was great fun to go out on the water with the kayaks. We stayed a week at the end of June, during a heat wave and the A/C did a great job of keeping the unit cool. The location is nice and quiet and convenient to shopping and restaurants. Will definitely rent this townhome again.

Thank you so much, Linda, for the wonderful review! We’re so happy you enjoyed the townhome, the kayaks, and all the little touches throughout your stay. 😊 It means a lot to hear that the home stayed comfortable even during the heat wave and that you found the location convenient and relaxing. We’d absolutely love to host you again for another Smith Mountain Lake getaway! ☀️🚤
