Loved our stay at Granny’s Retreat! Kitchen well appointed. View is lake exceptional. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and dock each day. Cove was perfect for our kayaks we brought.

Great cul-de-sac on the lake with a nice view. Close to the main marina for ease of watersport rentals, dining and shopping. Lake was unseasonly low making the dock area a little awkward but still very usable. Nice overall rustic feel with loved-in character!

It was so fun and relaxing at the lake! It was a quiet area with beautiful views. The house was a cute antique styled “cottage”. The kids enjoyed swimming (we brought our own inner tubes and floats). It worked well for our family and we were able to enjoy the space. Communication with the manager was also great! Would definitely recommend!

Great views and amenities for the price!

We had a wonderful time during our stay here. The dock was very convenient as we rented a pontoon boat for the duration of our stay, and the marina was a 5 minute boat ride away. The property was rustic with some modern amenities and the back deck was fantastic with plenty of shade to sit out all day. The patty deck was still closed but we still enjoyed swimming off the dock. We will definitely be back next year for a longer stay!

Smith Mountain Lake Retreat

This property is a rustic get-away nestled in a quiet cove. The property has a great new boat dock with swim platform. The slip stored the property owners boat, but were able to tie-off to swim deck for the wknd which was very convenient. The home has plenty of rooms for multi-gen family visits to the lake. The stairs going upstairs to loft and downstairs to walk-out bedrooms are steep so keep in mind during planning. Property is well maintained and has a rustic charm. We were our stay here again!

Loved the old school vibe. View was fabulous. Loved the boat dock. This house was well equipped with everything needed. Both sets of stairs were a bit treacherous - but we managed! Home was as described - except for the beds and bath- (only 1 shower, 1 bathtub). I was also unaware there was a king bed on this property- and we did not bring sheets for that one. I hope this property is updated with actual beds and needed bedding. I will definitely come back with more friends!

The check-in was easy and the air conditioning worked well. The cleaning was done quickly because the crew failed to show up. We found shorts, underwear, and a half drunk can of Red Bull in the loft. The living area doesn’t accommodate 8 people. The kitchen appliances appear to be new. Steps up to the loft and to the downstairs are treacherous. There are many steps down to the dock that need to be disclosed. We left a day early.

Beautiful, rustic, and humble.

We had a group including my family of three, my wife’s two sisters and their significant others. We had tons of room to spread out and loved relaxing on the large deck with lake views and the floating dock provided hours of fun swimming in the lake and catching small fish off the dock. I brought my 21’ Pontoon which tied up nicely to the dock cleats! The cove is nice and quiet and doesn’t receive tons of wakes in the little corner. The king bed in the basement was comfortable! I slept great every night. It’s clear this house has been very loved and cared for in its lifetime! Pro tip: there’s a table that folds down from the wall (above and next to the couch) that’s perfect for setting up a food buffet!
Shrimp and crab cakes on the Murphy Table!
Spiral stair case to the downstairs room
Spacious dock with composite decking material. Seadoo Switch Pontoon tied up! (21’)

It was really great. My grandparents had a cabin like this that I spent my summers at growing up. Very nostalgic. It had modern amenities like wifi and roku. I wish I knew the home owners boat was stored on the dock. I was still able to tie off on the floating dock. The lake level is extremely low and we had to jump down to the stairs. This isn't a normal circumstance, but this is something the rental company should probably pay attention too. The rental company was easy to get in contact with and they were very friendly and helpful. I loved this property and I hope to continue to visit it in the future. My kids (6 and 7) will have memories of this place that they will never forget and it's as close to what i experienced growing up, so sharing this place with them is just so amazing. Thank you.

The house was amazing and offered the perfect place to vacation for the week. Having 6 adults and one shower was challenging but not as bad as expected. The dock was beautiful even though the water was low. I’d highly recommend this location as it’s whimsical and cozy.
