Lovely Lakeside Retreat

The situation and comfort of this house are very good. We loved having a fire at the fire pit and sitting on the porch looking over the lake.

Beautiful Place

Loved the lay out of the house and easy access to water. Would love in the future to see a dock to walk out on and fish or just sit to enjoy the water more.

Vacation

It was very quiet and peaceful. The Internet wasn't great and had no signal on our phone but that was ok. We really enjoyed it and plan to return when we can.

Lake getaway

My husband and I wanted to get away and relax and we did just that. We even got to see the bald Eagle that is by the property. Awesome! The property was very clean and nicely appointed. We had a great time.

5 Star Lake Property

My self, husband, and his family stayed 3 nights at this perfect house on Smith Lake. The area was private and peaceful, with very little traffic on this part of the lake. The house was spotless, provided all the essentials for a comfortable stay (such as WIFI, newer appliances, some of the most comfortable beds we'd ever slept in, and more), and plenty of space for 6 adults and a teenager. It also included all of the lake essentials, like fishing equipment, a canoe and two kayaks, and life jackets for all sizes. We also enjoyed a meal at a delicious restaurant that had homestyle cooking, great burgers, and a full bar, and it was less than 10 minutes away! I would definitely recommend this property to everyone I know, and we will be planning to stay again in the near future.

We loved it! There was tons of space and room for a whole family. Kitchen and master bath were lovely. We’re going back and bring our grown kids and grandson! Perfect surroundings with everything you need and gorgeous lake to look at. Gracious owners left us an anniversary card and cake! Can’t recommend enough!!
