Property was amazing. Very clean, great location. The owner was available to answer any questions I had. Pool table and hot tub were great! Will definitely stay here again soon.
Nice house, host was very nice. We had a problem with the air when we first got there and they took care of it right away! Very responsive and super nice. It was too warm to use the hot tub but it was nice and clean. Having the kayaks was awesome. We did not swim in the area of the house due to having friends who have a house close by with a dock. But it looked calm and nice. The view was also very pretty. Loved the decks and it was fun to end the night with a game of pool. Will definitely look into staying here again if we come to Smith Mountain.
I would have given this place a five star, but we needed to bring our own sheets and towels, which was inconvenient. And it would do a whole lot of good if they supplied washcloth, hand towels, bath, towels, and kitchen towels., To expect people who are traveling to pack these things is unacceptable. Other than that, it was very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub and the kayaks. The lake is absolutely stunning. We would love to come back to the same condo, but under the conditions of them supplying these items. Thank you for having us.
We stayed here for the Thanksgiving holiday and the kitchen was more than adequate. Multiple levels allowed for my family to spread and have privacy. Be sure to arrive with everything you need, nothings close.
Our host, Terry, was friendly and helpful. The townhouse was very nice with great accommodations, easy water access and extra amenities (pool table, kayaks, hot tub, games and more).
We all very much enjoyed our stay there last week, and highly recommend it.
Beautiful views await you at this place. It’s well stocked in the kitchen and the amenities are great. The hot tub has a perfect view. We truly enjoyed our stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed this property. From the cleanliness to the location and the owners ability to make our vacation stay loaded with all the amenities that made us want for nothing. The area is beautiful as well.
Hooray at Huddleston! Simply SENSATIONAL at Shangri-La
Family had a TERRIFIC time enjoying our vacation at SML. Home was wonderful as was the owner. We loved the lake, playing pool and relaxing in the hot tub! Definitely will visit again!
We had a great time at the property. The view of the lake was peaceful. The hot tub was relaxing. There is a pool table but we didn’t use it. The kitchen had a full spice rack and a few other pantry items available. Terry did a great job communicating with us.
We loved spending the weekend with our family here! The quiet cove was perfect for playing in the water while still being close to the marina. All of our kids from 6-18 yrs. loved the hot tub, kayaks, pool table and the beauty of the lake! Great getaway.
The place was conveniently located to get to stores. My kids love taking the kayaks out and the fishing from the yard below the townhouse. The pool table was also a big hit!
My family and I had a wonderful time staying at this property. The location was scenic and tranquil. The townhouse was very clean and efficient. I would highly recommend this property.

Excellent for active families that like to hang out together and kayak
Loved the property, the kayaks, and exploring SML. Excellent for active teenagers. We kayaked, played pool, got in the hot tub and explored the area. Wonderful getaway and I highly recommend Terry's place.
Very nice, clean and comfortable condo. Kayaks were in good condition and the layout of the house was wonderful. Thank you!

About the host
Hosted by Terry McGauvran
Our family, after years of considering a lake house, acted upon our dream in 2017 after discovering our future waterfront home at Saunders Point. Our adult children and their partners have always enjoyed outdoor activities on the water. So upon seeing this special place, all agreed that Shangri-la is where we need to be. -
Why they chose this property
Love all the space this property provides, and the large main deck with two tables and chairs, not to mention the lake views. The structural offset of 4 individual town homes gives it a private feel with the landscaping and terraced steps to the water an added plus.
What makes this property unique
Being here on the forested southeastern shore of the lake is like stepping back to a simpler place and time. A place for renewal. Whether fishing, swimming, kayaking, or walking nearby hiking trails, or perhaps simply relaxing on our decks overlooking the water, we invite you to settle back and share the joy of this natural setting with us.
