Welcome to The Inner Banks at SML! Relax and unwind in this modern lakefront home. If you have been looking for the perfect vacation rental at Smith Mountain Lake, then you are in luck. This chalet has it all - 180-degree wide water views, large wraparound porches, a grand primary bedroom with a private deck, and access to a massive dock with a lakeside bar.
On the main level, you have lake views for days. Without a doubt, the best feature of this home is the entire lake side being lined with sliding glass doors leading out to the wraparound porch. The A-frame windows are a stunning touch to this contemporary lake home and provide maximum natural light all throughout. The kitchen is equipped with everything you would need to make your home-away-from-home feel complete. Cook and enjoy all of your meals in the kitchen, featuring beautiful stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar that faces the lake. The dining room table is surrounded by sliding glass doors and lake views, making every seat in the house the ultimate dining experience. The spacious living room provides lake views from every angle, a TV, and a large sectional with plenty of seating for the whole group. To round off the main level, you have two guest bedrooms, a full-size bathroom with a standalone shower, and a laundry room.
Head upstairs to the romantic grand primary suite - it will be hard getting out of bed in the mornings when you wake up to the views from up here! Enjoy your coffee, wine, and loved ones on your large private deck that extends the entire length of the upstairs. In the evenings, you can watch TV or stargaze right from bed. The large en suite bathroom features a standalone shower, and a double vanity.
The large wraparound deck surrounds the house and is truly just steps away from the water's edge. There are multiple chairs and a table for relaxing and outdoor dining. Your vacation won't be complete until you dine alfresco and watch the sun sink down low!
WHAT’S NEARBY
The Inner Banks property is in a private community, which provides you access to the massive shared community dock located only steps away from the house with a floating dock to swim off of and an amazing lakeside bar! A community beach is also right beside the entrance to the house - great for the little ones to wade in the water.

This property is managed by Vacasa Virginia LLC.
Dock Details: Community Dock - no guarantee of availability.
