About the host
Hosted by Rachel
We grew up in the Lynchburg, VA surrounding areas and have always vacationed at SML when we were kids. As adults, We still spend just as much time at the lake with our family. This is our second home at SML and we enjoy it during the time it is not rented out. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do!
Why they chose this property
It is a family friendly neighborhood that is great for evening walks and our road is surrounded by water views on both sides. It is also close to restaurants and stores in case you need anything last minute.
What makes this property unique
Very few lake front properties have the ability to drive down to the dock. Our road makes a circle around the pointe and you can park your car right in front of the dock for easy access!
