PENINSULA PARADISE at BERNARD'S LANDING! Closest to the Water!!!

Peninsula Paradise – Closest Waterfront at Bernard’s Landing

When you walk into our lakefront condo, you will find your piece of paradise. You will be “wowed” by the gorgeous wide water and mountain views. You can't get any closer or have easier access to the water than with our ground floor unit.

Our condo is located in the Peninsula Towers building. The paint colors, pictures, and accessories in our updated condo create a relaxing vacation look and feel inside. The kitchen is well-stocked with everything you could possibly need. Linens are also provided.

The condo has two bedrooms – the master has a King bed and the other has two Twin beds. Each room has flat screen smart TVs. The new Samsung 55 inch smart TV in the living area also has a Bose sound bar. We offer an upgraded Wi-Fi connection (300 mbps through Shentel - faster than the standard speed at other units) and a great collection of movies, board games, puzzles, etc.

Unlike many other rentals that are strictly for investment purposes and rarely used by their owners, we use our condo regularly during all seasons and we go the extra mile to keep our unit very clean, well maintained, stocked, and comfortable for ourselves and our guests. We spent many summers living in this condo full time and made sure we had all the conveniences of our full time home while there. If you rent our Peninsula Paradise, you will not want to leave this vacation “home away from home.”

This is a ground floor unit, however, there are 10 steps from parking lot to the condo front entry and 17 steps from the condo down to the courtesy boat slips. See photos.

Our unit sleeps a MAXIMUM of 4 people over the age of six years old per Franklin County transient occupancy rules.

You are welcome to bring your own boat to leave at the courtesy boat slips. You will need to get a guest boater decal from Bernard's Landing for your boat and trailer ($20/day.)

THE PROPERTY: Bernard's Landing is considered THE premier resort at SML and has received numerous Platinum awards voted on by readers of The Laker and The Roanoker magazines including 'best place to stay.'

Bernard’s Landing resort offers great amenities including: indoor and outdoor swimming pools; hot tub; several sandy beaches; basketball, tennis and pickle ball courts; a fitness center and sauna; an award winning waterfront restaurant and bar; an onsite ramp to launch your boat, a marina with boat, jet ski, kayak, canoe and paddle board rentals, and courtesy boat docks just steps from your back door.

The resort is conveniently located a short 10-13 minute drive to the Westlake and Bridge Point Plaza areas where you will find a variety of restaurants, quaint specialty stores, grocery & drug stores, putt-putt, game arcade, and a movie theater.

ADDITIONAL: If you don’t have a boat, you can view the lakefront scenery and million dollar homes from the Virginia Dare, a 19th century side paddle wheeler, which offers cruises on the lake. There is plenty to do at Bernard’s Landing, but if you want to venture out, sightseeing options include wineries, the Smith Mountain Dam Visitors Center, the National D-Day Memorial in Bedford, Booker T. Washington National Park, Smith Mt. Lake State Park, Transportation Museum in Roanoke, or the Peaks of Otter near the Blue Ridge Parkway.

About the host

Hosted by Sandy Knox

Host profile image
Sandy grew up in Roanoke and spent summers boating and enjoying water activities at SML as often as possible. Our family enjoys traveling and experiencing new places, however, our "happy place" is always here at Smith Mountain Lake where life is simple, relaxing, and slower paced than busy Northern Virginia.

Why they chose this property

We originally purchased a 1 BR condo at Bernard's Landing in 2001 and our family spent most of our summers at the lake. We looked around at single family homes but always came back to Bernard's Landing for the great location, spectacular views and amenities. When we decided to upgrade and purchase a larger unit at Bernard's Landing, we chose this property for its proximity to the water and our wonderful neighbors who we now consider our "lake family." We feel so blessed to have offered our kids the opportunity to also grow up on the lake. Now that they are older and involved in more activities, we can't spend as much time at SML so we are happy that we can offer our home for others to enjoy!

What makes this property unique

Bernard's Landing is a great place. Some unique benefits for this particular condo - Since we did live here vs. just having a rental/investment property, our home is stocked well and set up with everything you need. Our building is probably the closest to the water and also is the only building that offers back door access to the courtesy boat docks which enables you to lock the door and walk out the back to your boat rather than locking sliders and having to walk out the front door and around the building to access the courtesy docks.
