We loved this place. A few of us girlfriends wanted to find a place for a long weekend getaway and this place was perfect. Very comfortable for 4 of us to lounge in the nice pool, relax on the deck, watch tv, eat and laugh. The area is beautiful, so peaceful and quiet. The house is so pretty and decorated beautifully. Well stocked kitchen, very comfortable beds & pillows. It is a little walk to the lake down a kind of steep grade but it is so pretty there. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and the hosts are great to communicate with.

A working trip with destressing time.

This is a lovely house in a quiet rural area with lakeside access. It's a perfect spot to vacation with family. But we chose it because we were in the area to support family with job-location planning. It was a perfect place to provide support and a relaxing place to unwind after stressful days. It was also convenient because there was a grocery store not too far away & a really good pizza place.

Fantastic Week

This property, although older, was just perfect. Everything was clean and tidy. The grandchildren loved the pool in the backyard. Having use of the dock for the boat was a great convenience. The only downside was we were not informed that they now provide sheets and towels, so we hauled all those extra things. Upside, we didn't have to dirty them.

Awesome vacation!

This was a great house in a great location, perfect for our group. After spending our days on the boat we spent our evenings in the pool. You’re only a short boat ride to the bridge and several waterside restaurants and a short car ride to the grocery store. The house had everything we needed. It’s a steep path down to the dock but we just took our SUV down so that we didn’t have to walk back up. I am hoping to book this home again.

We loved the house, it was very comfortable. The pool was for sure a hit. Kitchen was completely stocked with all the essentials. Very comfortable beds. Overall a great home. The incline to the lake was a bit much, but we did get to experience a family of deer to watcha nd enjoy during our walks to the lake. Than you for sharing your home with us.

About the host

Hosted by Christina

Host profile image
We are a Navy family that lives in Chesapeake, VA. We purchased the house because we love Smith Mountain Lake and enjoy the home ourselves throughout the year. We have put a lot of effort into the property to ensure our home is perfect for our family and yours.

Why they chose this property

After a lot of research, we chose this location because it is perfectly located central to two wineries, Smith Mountain Lake State Park, Bridgewater Marina, and food/groceries. It is also one of the best coves in the area as it is deep but small and you can enjoy swimming at the dock without fear of passing vessels.

What makes this property unique

The property is large, almost 1.5 acres, boasts one of the only pools available on Smith Mountain Lake, is very quiet with a unique all-brick building (inside and out), has a large fire pit, and a beautiful dock. You'll be hard-pressed to find another property with all the amenities for such a good rate.
