This cabin is a Family Treasure. Built as the original vacation cabin on Island Lane, road created by my Dad (retired professor from UVA) fifty years ago. Great Smith Mountain Lake location! Right on the main channel adjacent to lake marker R-8 where the Roanoke and Blackwater Rivers meet.

Recently renovated 1st floor, kitchen & bathroom. Expansive lake view with exquisite sunsets are yours for the taking. Peek at the lake from every window direction, face the lake from the deck (like on a boat, and could step out into the water) and just a few steps below will take you to a private stationary dock, where boats can be parked. A few steps up off the upper deck will lead you to perfect views of the July 4th holiday fireworks from Saunders Parkway Marina. Brand new upgrade features a double mini-split ductless heat pump system provides clean, efficient AC, and heat. Please note: Vacation rental guests do bring their own Bed linens and Towels.

    Wish we had one more day! If we did not have to be back to teach children church on Sunday we definitely would have left Sunday. It is a perfect place for a quick, short vacation to getaway from the city and enjoy the beauty of Gods creation.

    My husband and his friend stayed at Laura‘s house for a fishing tournament. They said everything was great! The house was meticulously clean and very comfortable, with everything they needed. And the views were amazing.

    Awesome place! Great vuews, great weather access, great SUP's that come with. So glad I got to enjoy it. BUT NO sheet nor towels certainly did not make it the paradise I expected. Simple hygiene really.

    We spent the weekend celebrating our anniversary, and it was the perfect place to hide away! The sound of water lapping on shore, and the sunset were perfect!

    Dining on food fresh off the barbeque out on the deck to the accompaniment of a spectacular sunset, a troop of deer passing by and the song of various birds...What's not to like. We were looking forward to peace and quiet and found it. What followed our arrival was an acquaintance with indolence. Want some activity? Swim off the pier or rent a pontoon boat for a day and take a trip up the lake. Lovely house, lovely host. Lovely stay.

    Perfect getaway for 2. Great spot for lots of fishing, sitting on the dock reading books and stargazing at night.

    Could not use dock. Water was so low couldnt dock my boat. Should have been warned about that. Would not have rented

    Just as the rental name says, Love Sunsets? had the best sunsets ever! The unit was spotlessly cleaned and had many things that made one feel so at home.

    It was a wonderful stay, and super quiet. Just what we were looking for. There were things around the house we felt were not kept up with well, such as landscaping and exterior maintenance.

    It was a great location to view the lake, and amazing sunsets! We had a great time here, even though the weather didn't cooperate for using the kayaks. There is a lot to do around the lake, and we didn't have any issues finding good places to eat nearby.

    Overall a nice cabin with a full beautiful sunset view. Only real issue for me was the parking for the truck and trailer. Also the North wind almost ruined my boat. That has nothing to do with the owner of the property. This was all mother nature and hernfury. Just a warning if you want to leaveb your boat at the dock. You can pay to leave it at Parkway Marina overnight @ 25 a night which isn't that bad. Again this is a older cabin type of place thats super quiet and very private. There is no traffic at all hardly. Highly recommend this house if you want beautiful sunsets and privacy.

    Everything was great except the trash disposal. Finding a dumpster, Bedford County dump, was interesting with multiple trash bags in our car. I guess the summer includes trash service. Everything else was very good.

    Nice location on the main part of the lake. Kitchen was well equipped. We had a relaxing week, just wish the weather had been better.
