Om boendet

"Camp Run-a-Muk" - FLATT MYCKET, DYPVATT, Fire Pit, Kajaker, Ping Pong och SUP's!

Sängkläder och handdukar tillhandahålls från och med sommaren 2020!

Friskrivningsklausul: WiFi är inte tillgängligt på den här fastigheten. Vi vet att det här magiska stället är där människor kopplar ur, kopplar av och tar bort sig själva från distraktioner. Om du är någon som vill koppla av i en lugn och privat miljö och gå bort från världen ett tag, är detta huset för dig!

Vårt underbara hem köptes 2017 och har genomgått en omfattande renovering på flera nivåer. Det finns inte en enda kvadratmeter av hemmet som inte har berörts med en uppgradering! Den nya designen av hemmet var inspirerad av HGTV: s Fixer Upper powerhouse-par, Chip och Joanna Gaines. Väggarna slogs ner och en hel trappa flyttades i denna lilla pärla för att skapa ett varmt och inbjudande öppet koncept bondgård / sjöhus.

De massiva renoveringarna inkluderar borttagning av över tre dussin träd för att skapa en öppen bostadsyta i både främre och bakre trädgården. Andra förbättringar att notera är som följer: helt nytt tak, nytt 32 x 12 däck, uppdaterad docka och ny 10 x 10 flottör, nya anpassade skåp i köket med kvartsbänkskivor och vackert lantbrukarhus, alla nya energieffektiva fönster, nya rustika laminatgolv i hela, rostfritt stål apparater, en ny färg jobb både inom och utanför, nya rännor och färska landskapsarkitektur. Kort sagt, vi har varit väldigt upptagen!

Våren 2018 väckte nytt liv i hemets oavslutade källare. Vi har lagt till ett stort sovrum (rymmer fyra), ett komplett badrum och ett fullt rekreationsrum i källaren. Våren 2019 gav nya skräddarsydda ladugårdsdörrar i källaren, nytt epoxigolv, ett helt målade och ljusare utrymme och tillägget av ett välbehövligt verktygsvask. Men vi är inte färdiga än! Sommaren 2020 kommer att skryta med ett nytt pentryområde på den lägre nivån så det är perfekt för flerfamiljevägen!

Vårt hem är inbäddat i det lugna och privata samhället i Pine Ridge utanför Toler's Ferry Road i Huddleston. Huset ligger bekvämt på en expansiv 1. 5 tunnland mycket som ger gott om utomhus utrymme och roligt för alla. Partiet till vänster är en trädbevuxen parti som erbjuder ett extra lager av integritet. Majoriteten av vårt parti är öppet, men det finns flera träd på fastigheten som ger skugga under de varma sommardagarna.

Området är avskilt vilket möjliggör oavbruten promenader på morgonen eller kvällen längs vägen. Hemmet ligger tillbaka på fastigheten tillräckligt långt från vägen att du inte behöver oroa dig för sommartrafik eller resenärer. Vi är belägna på en privat väg som inte ger mycket trafik någon gång under året. Dessutom är Pine Ridge community en liten grupp med drygt 20 hem. Detta bidrar till lugn, lugn och lugn i området. Du kommer att upptäcka att vi har många heltidsboende i vårt samhälle. Som sagt, du kommer också att märka flera av grannens hundar som slingrar sig runt och de kommer sannolikt att stanna förbi för att säga hej. Alla av dem är extremt vänliga och kommer inte att avvisa dig för en repa bakom öronen!

Utställningen av denna fastighet är den hisnande utsikten från varje dörr eller fönster på baksidan av huset. Solen går direkt över sjön från vårt hem som erbjuder ett vackert och romantiskt slut på dagen. Njut av solnedgången från bakdäcken medan du smuttar på ditt favoritglas vino.

Förutom utsikten är vårt parti praktiskt taget platt, men erbjuder djupt vatten som sträcker sig djup från 8 till 12 fot. Den kombinationen är ett sällsynt fynd vid Smith Mountain Lake!

Själva huset har fyra sovrum och tre badrum. Det stora sovrummet är utrustat med en dubbelsäng och ett badrum. Den större av de två andra sovrummen har två queen size-sängar och det mindre sovrummet är värd för en full över full våningssäng. Den övre våningssängen var "viktprovad" av två tonåringar och vi hade ingen chans att nå utöver 425 pund! Källaren har ett mycket stort sovrum med en queen size-säng och en full säng samt ett komplett badrum.

Observera att vårt hem är på ett brunns- och septiksystem så tänk på vad som går in i rören. Med tanke på den stora tid, ansträngning och kostnad som det tog för att renovera den här egendomen accepterar vi inte husdjur just nu. Tack för att du förstår.

Fantastic location - everything you need in a SML vacation home

Property is in an excellent location - on a quiet and calm section of the lake which was perfect for on the lake fun. The house is extremely well kept and spacious. Everything has been replaced / refurbished in the home and the house came with all the amenities you need. We enjoyed jumping in the lake and playing with the toys (kayaks, floats, etc). There are plenty of beds and several living spaces so you can spread out. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect getaway

Every detail of this property is beautiful. From the decor, to the view, to the little extras, we enjoyed all that it has to offer. It's one of the most well equipped properties we've ever rented. The access to the kayaks and paddle boards really made the trip, especially for the kids. My favorite time was sipping my morning coffee on the rocking Adirondack chairs down by the water. Wonderful trip!

Best vacay ever!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Camp Run-a-Muk! Holley and Steve were quick to respond to all the questions we had prior to our stay and recommended some great spots for dining. The house is simply beautiful. You can clearly see all of the hard work that was put into this home. We enjoyed lazy days on the lake, paddle boarding, kayaking and fishing. Our nights were filled with s’mores by the fire pit and family game nights. This house has everything you need and want in a vacation home. Hands down, this was a 10/10 vacation!

Amazing time at Camp-Run-a-Muk!

My family and I have been going and renting a house at SML for over 20 years and Camp-Run-a-Muk didn’t disappoint and is at the top of the list as far as houses go! It’s always hard to find a house with 4 bedrooms to fit our family; my parents, sisters and significant others, and now my children. We were welcomed with flowers (arranged by a local company with an amazing purpose), local wine and wine glasses, local honey, soap from a local vendor, and coffee. Such a wonderful touch and sweet gesture to start off our vacation! Communication with the owner was very easy and Holley was extremely welcoming. House is renovated and decor is on point. Has a kitchen table large enough for a family of 10 which was amazing for us and rare to find when renting. Kitchen has everything you’ll need while on vacation, plus a few bonus items; large coffee mugs for those early morning with young kids that don’t know how to sleep in yet, spices, aluminum foil and press and seal in the pantry. Located in a quiet part of the lake, not much boat traffic which is great for little ones learning to swim. Nice dock with 2 picnic tables. Would recommend bringing a chair or two down for some additional seating/lounging but not always necessary with how much time we spent in the lake. First house we’ve stayed at that had a pad which was a hit with the adults and kids! Very nice fire pit and sitting area for s’mores or a cold beverage after the end of a great day on the lake. Would totally recommend this home to anyone wanting to rent at SML!

Beautiful location, excellent stay!

We had a fantastic week at Camp Run-A-Muk and will definitely return in the future! The location was perfect... just 10-15 minutes from Mitchell's Marina (where we rented our boat and had an excellent lunch!), about a 20 minute boat ride from the dam, where we were fortunate to witness a flyover of 3 F-15's on our last full day! The property is beautiful, well kept, and updated. The owners have put a ton of work into it, and it really shows. They have an awesome game room downstairs with a giant Connect Four, ping pong, and foosball, but we spent so much time in the lake that we didn't utilize that much. We used one of the kayaks quite a bit, and it was an added bonus that those and the paddle boards were included. Definitely a successful first (of many, I'm sure!) trips to Smith Mountain Lake, and a property I would 100% rent again! To top if all off, the owners were incredibly helpful and kind, and an absolute pleasure to work with!

Another great week at the lake

Clean and well equipped. Kitchen is loaded and stock of spices and oils was much appreciated. Plenty of outdoor furniture, life jackets, kayaks, paddleboards and a foam float. Extended family of deer seemed to hang out in the yard. Kids enjoyed fishing from the dock and all the water activities. Everyone voted to return for a third time next year.

Gets the big stuff & the small details right!

Great property owners who are willing to go the extra mile. Lovely, recently remodeled home with lots of nice design touches. Very clean. Very well equipped and furnished (dock setup, kitchen appliances, lifejackets, SUPs, Adirondack chairs, firepit, kayaks, foosball, ping-pong, TVs, Dish network, etc.) The home is "downlake" from a private marina, so you should expect some modest boater traffic past the dock. Nothing inconvenient. The house -- like all at SML -- is on a well and water softener, so you shouldn't expect high water pressure. A little soap or shampoo goes a long way ;-) Note: the property DOES come with bed linens and towels if you're renting during the high season (the VRBO description said it did not, and we rented non-refundable linens and towels only to find the house already had them). Best to check with the property owners beforehand. Recommended!

Thoughtful touches by owner

Holley was exceptional at communicating with us prior to and during our stay! We greatly appreciated the linens, towels, and household items already set in the house for our use while staying-- it made getting settled SO MUCH EASIER! The house is spacious and tidy and that kitchen was a perfect layout for both prepping meals and enjoying a conversation. Nice dock with easy access for our rented boat to be tied up. The kayaks were so conveniently located near the dock- if only we were better kayakers! Great week- great house.

Terrific family time!

We enjoyed our 3 night family stay here. The beds, neighborhood, and furniture was comfortable and the water toys and ping pong a lot of fun! That area of the lake was quiet and safe without a lot of boat traffic and nice and deep for jumping in. One item to note if bringing elderly folks--the lot is flat relative to lakehouses in the area but seemed more like a hill to a grandma with arthritis--It was an easily negotiated incline with the nice gravel path and she did say it wouldn't keep her from coming again. And the chairs on ground level were fabulous as was the fire pit at night. Overall an A+ spot and lovely home we were thankful to borrow and would be glad to rent again.

SML stay

Camp Run-amuck is a wonderful property. Our entire immediate family stayed comfortably at the house which is a fantastic property. Plenty of room for the twelve of us with no crowding what so ever. The kayaks, paddle boards and boat docks were well utilized. The home is furnished nicely and the kitchen is very well stocked with pots, pans utensils etc. We could not have asked for better hosts and the communication was outstanding. We are planning on making this home a staple in our summer vacation plans.

Great location and even better house

This was a great location in a very quiet cove for jumping off the dock, swimming, paddle boarding , whatever you wanted to do in the lake. The dock was great and super easy to dock our rental pontoon boat and wave runners. All the kids loved the paddle boards and kayaks that were right there at the dock! Heading into the house is even better, it has to be the cleanest VRBO we have ever stayed in. The downstairs was the perfect place for our kids (8-15 years old) to have their own time and enjoy the games, ping pong table and their own living room. The kitchen was well stocked the large dining room table was great for family meals and then card games later on. This is the perfect house for a family getaway!

Super lakehouse

Bigger than we expected. Updated and awesome design. Really appreciated the kayaks and paddle boards and life vests. Plenty of room to spread out. Took advantage of ping pong table and foozball table. Appreciated kitchen supplies and spices. Great info and recommendations from owners on things to do and shopping. (picked blueberries and Homestead Creamery). S'mores by the firepit. We had vacationed with the family at North/South Carolina beaches for 10 years and were delighted for this change of pace.

Perfect #COVID vacation

We had to cancel our original trip because of COVID and decided to do something a bit more isolated and local. The house was extremely clean and just as pictured on the website. The space was perfect for two families. We were fortunate to have great weather and rented a boat for 3 of the days and were able to use the dock at the house. Holley and Steve were gracious hosts and were great at communication. Would definitely stay here again.

Om värden

Holley Scheffel är värd

Värdens profilbild
Steve and I both grew up in Northern Virginia just a short distance from Washington, DC. He went to Annandale High School in Fairfax County and I went to Gar-Field in neighboring Prince William County. We are full-time residents of Huddleston and live at a local marina while our house is occupied in the summers.

We have one son, Trevor, who was recently married. We also have two very energetic water pups! We have a beautiful and loving yellow lab named Dixie. She is a handful, but we forgive her because she's so stinking cute. We also have a chocolate lab named Sweet Mia. Her name aptly describes her personality.

Varför värden valde detta boende

This property comes with a story and we have it because of my late father-in-law,. In 2003, he lost his battle with cancer. At that time, he had been retired and had owned a small farm in Augusta County. He loved to hunt, so for retirement, he purchased a 100+ acre slice of heaven where he could enjoy the land at his leisure. That was in 1996. When he passed away in 2003, we kept the home and used it frequently to share with friends and family.

My husband has always wanted to live on the lake, so when we sold the farm at the end of 2016, we began the search for a lake house at Smith Mountain Lake (SML). We had vacationed at SML two years prior and fell in love with how clean the water was, but yet it was still surrounded by such breathtaking scenery.

We toured a total of 32 homes before deciding on this one. And the sole factor that swayed our decision (because we looked at several phenomenal houses) to purchase this home - was the lot. It's a rare find to have a house with a pancake flat lot, but that has deep water. Many homes with deep water have steep lots at SML. The house we decided on needed so much work (which was a bit intimidating), but we were willing to put in some sweat equity to make this work. Furthermore, we have some very handy friends who spent countless weekends at the lake helping us get it ready.

We also wanted a property that was family friendly. We have many friends with children of all ages and we wanted our home to accommodate people from all walks of life. Steve and I have six nieces all ranging in age from three to fifteen, so we wanted a place that everyone could enjoy. My parents are in their 70's and with our minimal sloping lot, it allows for older people to get to the lake with ease. In short, this is a fun place for everyone.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

The selling point for us on this home was one simple factor - the lot. We had looked at so many houses, but this was the ONLY house where no one was out of breath walking from the dock to the deck! We knew immediately that this house was THE ONE because of that. The pancake flat lot sealed the deal for us.

We are also in a very private neighborhood. There is a 1.5 mile back to our community which provides a sense of security and peacefulness.
