Great Lake Escape - Sleeps 6 - Dog Friendly

Welcome to The Great Lake Escape, your luxurious home away from home nestled on the shimmering shores of Smith Mountain Lake.

This recently remodeled, 5,200-square-foot lakefront retreat offers the perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and functionality across three beautifully designed levels. Built with gathering and memory-making in mind, the home features soaring vaulted ceilings, walls of glass framing breathtaking panoramic views, and inviting spaces that flow effortlessly from one to the next.

From the moment you arrive, you’ll appreciate the ease of entry—just two steps from the car to the front door—and find yourself welcomed into a warm and energetic space. Off the main foyer, the heart of the home awaits: a stunning, fully stocked kitchen complete with high-end appliances, ample cutlery and cookware, and a massive island with seating for nine.

Whether you're cooking up the morning’s catch or sizzling burgers on the commercial-grade outdoor grill, mealtime is a joy. The adjoining dining area, with seating for six, spills out onto a wraparound deck where your group can enjoy al fresco dining with jaw-dropping 180-degree lake views. The multiple outdoor seating areas invite you to linger over morning coffee or toast to the setting sun with your favorite glass of wine.

The main level is also home to the serene primary suite. A king bed, direct deck access, and views that greet you with the sparkle of the lake make it a true sanctuary. The spa-like ensuite bath features a jetted soaking tub, double vanity, and oversized walk-in shower—perfect for unwinding after a full day on the water.

Upstairs, the home continues to deliver thoughtful spaces for rest and play. A cozy loft-style den offers a TV and lounging area—ideal for kids or teens to unwind while the adults relax. Three upstairs bedrooms accommodate a variety of sleeping arrangements, including one bedroom with three twin beds and two queen bedrooms, all sharing a generously sized bathroom.

The lower level offers a kitchenette with a full-sized refrigerator, oven, and microwave downstairs, perfect for grabbing snacks or a cold beverage without heading upstairs. The spacious family room features plush sofas, a 55-inch flat-screen TV, and a foosball table that invites friendly competition and late-night laughter. When it’s time to unwind, step out through the double doors to a covered lakeside deck complete with comfortable seating and quiet conversation nooks—just the place to listen to the night sounds of the lake. A queen bedroom and a full bath on this level provide privacy and comfort for those looking for their own quiet retreat.

Every amenity you could want is at your fingertips: high-speed wireless internet for remote work or streaming, central heat and air conditioning for year-round comfort, two laundry areas to keep dock towels fresh, and flat-screen TVs to keep everyone entertained. And with two full kitchens, several living areas, and generous desk spaces, there's room for everyone to spread out, relax, and enjoy.

Whether you're seeking a peaceful family getaway, a reunion with friends, or a basecamp for lake adventures, The Great Lake Escape is more than a vacation home—it's an experience. A place where memories are made, laughter echoes through the halls, and the view never gets old.
