The gentle slopping staircase down to the dock is enclosed on both sides by hand railings making for a safe walk for all ages. Guests may secure their boat to the floating dock.

And if you're looking for a little help, we have recommendations for a few terrific local fishing guides who can help make sure your fishing is fun and fruitful.

We had a great time at this place! It is on a beautiful wide lot on the lake at an area which isn't the busiest. Technically the house is just outside of the no wake zone and you do pick up some wake from the main channel running past it, but it's pretty minimal and doesn't really take away from the awesome location. The boathouse is a fantastic place just to hang out with multiple levels, chairs and an awesome jump platform that we had a great time with. We spent a lot of time just hanging out there and swimming. We brought our jet ski and rented a boat and were able to secure them both. We also enjoyed time on the deck where there are again multiple levels and a nice table that we enjoyed sitting around for our dinner. The Weber gas grill was in very nice condition and we used it a couple of nights. Inside you have everything you need and a foosball table that was a lot of fun until one of the players got injured :( A lot of the beds are twins or bunks, so be sure you factor that in when you're considering you're sleeping space needs. There are also lots of games and we even found a new one that we enjoyed. There is only one TV and it doesn't include a fire stick or similar but we had brought our own. The furniture in front of the TV is not the most comfortable, but you're at the lake and you don't need to spend a lot of time watching TV. The kitchen has everything you need. The closest grocery was about 18 minutes away. We would definitely stay here again.
This was our second time staying at this home and it again was the best property I have stayed at during my 12 years coming to SML! The dock is spacious, allows for sun & shade, as well as enough room for the family to spread out. The house and dock are well equipped with everything you need, and then some! Check out the wall of books! Lisa, the owner is super responsive and helpful. We already booked again for next year! Thank you for having a home that is so comfortable, that even my picky family enjoys coming back to!
This was a wonderful house in a beautiful location. Our group of 7 had everything we needed , and loved that we were so close to the lake. Our kids had a great time jumping off of the dock and it was nice to be close enough to watch the boats and the skiers on the main lake. Highly recommend!
This home is super clean, kitchen is very well stocked and the beds are comfy (my 3 big ‘things’). We so appreciated all the things provided (towels, linens, lake towels, soaps, etc). My only FYI, it is located at the entrance to a no wake cove and the No Wake buoys are on the other side of this homes dock so if you have small children or are sensitive to wakes, just be aware, you’ll get some here. Other than that, place is exactly as described and pictured. We will be back!
Fantastic in every aspect.
Great communication with the property manager and she kept us well informed throughout the whole process. She was always quick to respond to our messages. The home had beautiful views and was close to Mariners Landing for the wine festival. It was a wonderful home to relax and unwind. We hated to leave.
We had a wonderful Labor Day weekend at this property. The house was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Perfect for 2 families! The location on the lake was wonderful and the two story jumping dock was a huge hit with the kids.
Everything about this home was more than we anticipated. It was clean, impeccably decorated and had everything we needed. The home is in a perfect location with beautiful views. The dock is fun and well equipped. The owner was great to work with and very quick whith her communications. We loved it and hope to return.
This was our second stay at this property on Smith Mountain Lake. We really appreciate the location on the lake (great views!) the expansive dock with lots of water toys, good docking for the boat we rented, and the well-maintained home with enough room to spread out. Unlike some other SML rentals, the basement is really cozy to hang out on stormy afternoons. The owner is very responsive to all questions. Great place!
Our 11th year at SML as a family and this was by far my favorite home that we’ve stayed at. The dock is everything—amazing views, well stocked with kayaks and SUP boards, enough room to spread out and there is always shade when you need it! The upper deck was a big hit for the teen and young adults! Thank you so much! Can’t wait until next year!
Awesome house and location. Super clean and well taken care of / equipped home. Kids absolutely loved jumping in the lake from the dock and swimming. Great property. Can’t wait to come back.
We loved this property so much. We had everything we needed & Lisa was so responsive and helpful. You can’t beat the view! We used the paddle boards and pool noodles and used the floating dock to dock our boat. We played board games, and so much fooseball. We never even turned on the TV! It was truly a great place to stay and we’d love to rent here again!
We had the best time at SML in this house! The dock had everything you need and the owner provided so many extras in the house. We will definitely be back!!
