Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an amazing stay at Smith lake house! The home was beautiful, clean, and very well maintained. The views of the lake were absolutely stunning. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay, from a fully equipped kitchen to cozy bedrooms and plenty of space for everyone. The location was quiet yet convenient, and the host was friendly, responsive, and easy to communicate with.

Reviewer Comments: Our family gets together each summer on Smith Lake and the Arches has enough room for our large group. Each room having a bath room is a big plus. Suggestion for improvement: For what is charged for rent for a week, would expect better quality grills or to at least replace existing with new. Makes grilling for a large group a challenge. Also downstairs kitchen is very poorly stocked with silverware, cooking pans/pots, etc. Not convenient to go upstairs to take from upstairs kitchen inventory

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great property with ample space for families with their own privacy/solitude within. The only minor shortcoming was there were items not available; tea towels, vacuum, scissors; only small items that probably just haven't been replaced/reported. Freezer on 2d floor did not freeze, only cooled and fridge handle on 2d floor was loose.

The fans were all dirty, they needed bath mats for stepping out of the tub or showers, and more regular towels for each room. we do love it here.

It was great !

Everything was great. There could have been more towels and washcloths. there were no bath mats in any of the bathrooms. There also was not a fire pit. Other than these 3 things it was great.

We really enjoyed our stay

We were last minute looking for a place to grieve the loss of our dear mom/nana. This place was available. It was nice, large enough and a definite blessing. The fact that it was still available last minute is likely because it’s a fairly remote location and is not as nice as many others at the same price point. Almost zero amenities. really just bedrooms, kitchens, living rooms and outside seating with water access. Most places at this price point will have a game room with pool table, a fire pit, nice grill, kayaks/paddle boards, etc. this one only had a ping pong table and old charcoal grill. like I said, it was a great last minute find and a blessing for sure. But for the same money, there are much nicer spots with more amenities and better location if you can plan ahead. Oh, one more thing to note, the customer service was great. We had a breaker trip in the kitchen and someone was there to access the panel for us very quickly after calling the help number. …just thought of one other thing. Some local dog likes to knock the trash cans over at night and get into the trash. So beware, there’s a daily effort of cleaning up strewn garbage. :( All in all, we would recommend this place, hence the 5 stars. Just being open about a few of our observations.

Beautiful home comfortable beds well equipped with necessities. If you boat you will love the location.
