Charming home, rustic and warm, incredible views, water access, and hot tub. Being down by Smith Mountain and watching sun and moon rises were top notch! Great host, communication, and ease of the business side of vacationing.

Sunrises and watching the moonrise over Smith Mountain are both favorites of ours as well! We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and look forward to your next visit.
Just know that the lake is 5-6ft below normal. Couldn’t get down to the dock. Beach area was great for our dogs.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review — we really appreciate it.
We’re sorry the record low lake level made it tough getting down to the floating dock during your stay. SW Virginia is experiencing extreme drought and the lake was sitting about 5 feet below normal at the time — lower than most of us have ever seen. That fixed-to-floating dock transition definitely got trickier than usual, and we wish it hadn’t been an issue for you.
We’ve since installed taller stairs from the floating dock, so access will be easier the next time we experience a record drought. And we’re happy to report the lake has come up a bit — it’s now only 3 feet below normal; too late for you but great for the rest of the summer.
We’re glad you and the dogs enjoyed the walk-in beach — that soft entry is one of our favorite features. On the bright side, we still have a solid 10 feet of water depth off the end of the dock, so tying up a boat has not been a problem (unlike many other places on the lake where docks are dry).
We do regret that the 8 out of 10 rating will likely hurt our visibility in future searches, but we truly value your feedback.
We’d love to welcome you and the pups back when the lake is behaving itself again. In the meantime, thanks again for staying with us.
Best regards,
Mark and Chris
Cozy cabin with a great view. We really liked the kayaks, firepit and dock with plenty of room to enjoy the weather. Excellent communication throughout. 10/10 would return.
The log cabin was great for a long weekend getaway for me and my husband as well as our pups. The lake front views are great at all times, the yard is big enough for games and fun.
We had a great anniversary trip at the relaxing and beautiful location on the lake. We enjoyed the kayaks provided, while exploring the lake and nearby islands. We enjoyed hiking in the state park, which is very close. Then we enjoyed recovering from all our kayaking and hiking in the hot tub under the stars. The cabin was very cozy and the morning sunrise was amazing.
First time vacationing at Smith Mountain lake. My family had a great time at the cabin. Excellent location and amazing views. We would definitely come back.
Beautiful location and the perfect little cabin for the 4 of us. So peaceful and quiet. Views are amazing, and the night sky.... WOW!!!!! We rented a boat and the dock was perfect and easy to get in and out. The most relaxing vacation we've ever enjoyed.
Perfect rustic cabin for some quality relaxing family time, in the perfect location!

We are so glad that Jessica and her family had a great family vacation. ...and we regret that she accidentally clicked 1 star instead of 5 for her "perfect rustic cabin" for "quality relaxing family time" in the "perfect location". Hopefully you (prospective guest) are reading the verbiage and not just looking at stars.
My family had a relaxing week at your cabin. The sunrise is gorgeous and the walk to the lake was just steps from the door. We enjoyed the use of your kayaks.
