Huddleston, Virginia
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 4th of July fireworks from Saunders Parkway Marina. Brand new upgrade featured: 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.

I come to SML every year for a fall retreat, and this was by far the best place I've stayed! Beautiful, quiet, peaceful location - amazing lake views from the cabin. The cabin is cozy and charming. I enjoyed every second! Perfect spot for a rest from city-life!
It was a romantic gateway Gorgeous views and cozy house
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The deck and dock were our favorite hang outs! Sunsets delivered as promised! Definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet relaxing getaway
Everything was as I expected very nice. The owner was very responsive to my questions. I plan on getting back this fall.
Gray location! Don’t forget water, because the well water smells horrible. Lol And we forgot bedding and towels. Antique house on the water. But very clean! Loved the location and von dock! Thank you! Will stay again.
Great view, beautiful scenery and Sun sets. Very quiet neighborhood!
Our stay was more than expected! Loved the house and the view! We had everything we needed right in one place! Our kids loved the paddle boards and the deck access. The only con we experienced was that the deck need some attention. The boards on the side where we docked our boat are starting to coming off. It would also be nice if it was a covered deck. We didn’t mind it but compared to the other decks on the lake, it could use a little upgrade. We still had a great experience. We will for sure be back! LOVED the location. The trees make the property feel so private. This was our first time staying at Smith Mountain and we couldn’t have had a better vacation. Also, the plates in the cabinet are NOT microwave safe. I noticed some places on them and looked on the back and I’m glad I did. It really was a great rental though. The sunsets were amazing! Thanks for allowing us to spend the week.
The house is in such a wonderful location! We rented a boat and were able to pull in and out with ease. The neighborhood is beautiful, and neighbors are friendly. Even though it's a more rustic house it still had everything we need including a washer and dryer, which is a must for us. :)
First time visitor to SML. Very comfortable and private location. Close to restaurants and grocery stores.
Enjoyed the view, relaxing and fishing,
We had a wonderful time this weekend! Beautiful views and cozy feel. Thank you!
Loved it. So quiet and beautiful, neighbors that we did see were friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back soon.
Quaint space with unbeatable sunset views! Enjoyed it very much!!
Came to a wedding at the marina. Found this small cottage and enjoyed it very much! It has a wonderful view from the deck where we enjoyed our meals . Plan to visit again for sure.
Had a great time. Smooth rental process and experience. Property could use a little upgrading particularly the deck and stairway down to the water. Sulfur smell to the household water was the biggest issue and would be the only thing keeping us from renting here again.. Overall happy about our stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time there because of the fantastic westerly views and fairly quiet location on the lake. The canoe was unusable but the kayaks and paddleboard were a blast to use. The dock is decent sized and afforded us easy access to the water. The cabin was furnished with the basics...no frills. This is a RUSTIC cabin in dire need of a deep cleaning and minor repairs. The screens on the windows were damaged and bugs routinely snuck in at night. The air conditioner in the downstairs bedroom had broken knobs and was very loud but we tuckered ourselves out so much during the day that we were able to sleep through it. Word to the wise, bring your own potable water...not a knock on the cabin, just reality of using odd tasting well water. I would stay there again but I'd be better prepared.
Beautiful view from the large elevated deck. Great place to swim and enjoy the lake.
Very peaceful and private setting. Beautiful sunsets!
This rustic cottage offers spectacular views. The private dock is perfect for fishing or just hanging out. Communication with the owner was fantastic. We'll be back.
Beautiful location had so much fun my grandkids had never seen deer before so they couldn't get enough of them ? the water was perfect the paddle board was a big hit
Great location to see sunrise coming up over the mountain while walking on road and gorgeous sunsets viewed from back of house. Great size of house for a family of four. Bring drinking water if you aren’t used to the smell of the water in this area. We had a great time and would stay here again. We enjoyed the provided kayak and paddle board.
very nice place
Added a wedding at a nearby venue. The unit was within walking distance and a fantastic place to relax in solitude prior and after the event
Property needs work, trees need trimming to enjoy the sunsets Steps to dock are about to rot so are dangerous need to be replaced sooner than later. Location is great with private dock
Beautiful view and location, very quiet and peaceful. Dock would be great for water activities when water gets warmer. Excellent communication with owner.
