About the host

Hosted by Bridget Cook

Host profile image
Our family has dreamed of owning a lake house for many years, and we feel so fortunate to have finally made that dream a reality! We have two teenage boys, and we live full-time in Durham, North Carolina. Smith Mountain Lake is such a special place for our family, and we are thrilled to share it with yours so that you can also experience the magic of Heron House!

Why they chose this property

Our neighborhood is peaceful, wooded, and full of lovely neighbors--many of which live there full-time. We also appreciate the convenience to local stores and restaurants.

What makes this property unique

Our lot is located at the beginning of a cove, which means incredible views but also safety for swimming. Our home is perfectly set up for families--we have five bedrooms (one with a crib and changing table), four bathrooms, and multiple gathering spaces. Our playroom is always a hit with the little ones! All hardscaping and landscaping has been completely redone as of Spring 2026, including a flagstone patio with a built in fire-pit, leveled grassy areas for yard games, and new walkways around the house and to the lake for easy access.
