2.5 wooded acres on quiet deep water cove - create great vacation memories.

Still Waters Getaway is located in the Beachwood West community and is perfectly situated on a 2.5 acre wooded setting in a quiet, deep water cove of Smith Mountain Lake between channel marker R31 and R32. The perfect place to enjoy all the water sport activities on the lake, or a quiet swim right down the hill at the dock. A gently sloped walk leads to the water's edge featuring stationary dock with party deck and bar area. You can enjoy the sun, fish, or jump off the top part of the dock and swim around without being bothered by boat traffic, noise, or wakes. A canoe, and 3 kayaks are also available for you to enjoy. Great game room with pool table and video arcade are available to round out the day, this home equipped for a fun filled family vacation. We are close to Bridgewater Plaza where there are numerous stores, restaurants, and night time entertainment. There are several places close by to rent boats, personal watercraft, and tubes. Come create your great vacation memories. Don’t forget you can bring the dog!

There are 3 bedrooms, sleep sofa, a 4th sleeping area in the basement, and 3 Baths. All linens - sheets, pillows and pillow cases, and bath towel sets are included.

The entry level features the kitchen and living room/dining room area with a flat screen TV. Doors leading to a deck overlooking the lake where you can enjoy a meal on the deck, maybe something special from the grill, or just sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Also on the entry level, a bedroom(with a Roku tv) with a king size bed, and a full bath await you.

Up one flight of stairs brings you to the loft which overlooks the entry level living area. On this level you will find the 2 additional bedrooms(with Roku tvs) with queen size beds, one with access to its own private balcony with fantastic views. Also on this floor will be the second full bathroom.

On the lower level you'll find the 4th sleeping area, this includes 2 twin day beds, each with a twin trundle bed that can be rolled out and positioned where needed, for a total of 4 twins. The third full bathroom can also be found on this level. The remaining lower level areas are all fun and games and features a pool table, full sized 2 player arcade game(3000+ games), flat screen TV, and wet bar area. There is a wet bar features a full size fridge w/ ice maker, microwave, coffee maker and additional seating. You will also find a full-sized washer and dryer for your convenience. A sleep sofa can also be found in the game room. Exit the game room to the lower level covered deck and terrace to enjoy additional lake view or have a swing.

The gently sloped path leads to the water's edge featuring stationary dock, upper party deck, and lower bar(w/ fridge) area with porch swing and hammock. We also have floating dock at the water lever to allow easy access to the water for the canoe and kayaks. At the dock - swimming is great, deep water(15-20 feet at the end of our dock) in a secluded cove - no wake zone! You can enjoy the sun, fish, or jump off the top part of the dock and swim around without being bothered by boat traffic, noise, or wakes. A canoe and 3 kayaks(2 single and 1 double) are also available for you to enjoy. We are close to Bridgewater Plaza where there are numerous stores, restaurants, and nighttime entertainment. There are several places close by to rent boats, personal watercraft, and tubes.

To the right of our main dock complex you'll see an additional swim platform and 3-slip dock area, this is shared with a couple neighbors and is something you have access to as well. Our slip is closest to the shore line with the jet ski lift. While there is plenty of room to tie up your boat to our main dock(the boat lift is not available for guest usage), you have access to this slip if needed - we just ask that you don't tie up anything to the floating swim platform, you are welcome to tie up to the floating dock attached to our main dock.

Upon your arrival you'll find starter items...toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags, laundry detergent, dish detergent, hand soap, and kitchen towels to get you started for your week.

Bath towel sets are included for 10 persons - please do not use down at that lake. Bed linens are provided as well.

WIFI included.

Just also wanted to add a note about our driveway. If you read some of the reviews, the one negative comment we get is about the driveway. We are in the mountains, the word "mountain" is in the name, so yes, our driveway may be steep, but our home is closer to the water. We have a mini-van and have no problems with the driveway. Again, on the plus side, since our home is closer to the water, the walk from the house to the dock is shorter and less steep. Our neighbors on the other hand...their home is at the top of the hill, easy driveway, but have a long, steep walk to the water. If you were to compare our home to others in the area, I think being closer to the water with less steps far out weighs any negatives related to driveway. If you have any questions or concerns about this, please reach out, I'm more than happy to discuss.

Our family of six just stayed here and absolutely loved this place. The home owner has put a lot of time into that backyard space and it definitely shows. We spent a lot of our time fishing off the dock and kayaking (also took out the canoe). The home inside had everything we needed & very much enjoyed our stay as a family. We also ventured out 20 mins and enjoyed Jake's place for dinner by the lake and rode on the VA Dare to see the rest of the lake. Also visited SML community park where there were trails to walk on and a fishing dock and beach. Come visit!

Couldn’t have asked for a better weekend away at the Lake with my family. The host was very responsive and accommodating. Days we spent on the sun deck and the boat dock fishing and soaking up the sun. We brought our boat and that was a piece of cake getting it on an out of the dock. Makes it so much easier when the water is deep around the dock and not to mention the fishing was great in the cove. Thank you so much for letting us stay here! We will definitely be back!

My fiancée and I spent an amazing week here. The weather was beautiful, the location was great and the house was amazing. Couldn't of asked for a better vacation. Our primary reason for going on this vacation was to just relax and that's exactly what we did. We only left the house 1 time to refresh our groceries and go out to lunch one day. We had all the amenities we needed to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again.

We had a lovely fall week at SML. The house is as advertised, with 3 bedrooms plus additional sleeping options in the basement. It’s not a new house but appears well maintained and updated. The kitchen is large and sufficient to eat most meals at home, and the beds were quite comfy. The dock is great - we rented a pontoon boat and got to enjoy both the cove and cruising the lake. As noted in other reviews, the driveway is steep but was no problem for either our van or compact suv. Recommend!

Beutiful Location for Families

My dad's family is from Bedford. We brought our son, DIL, and grandson to visit the Bedford area. I spent so much time in VA as a child that we wanted them to see the area as a vacation spot. We loved the location and the range of activities at the house and in the surrounding area. We hope to come back when it is warmer to fish more.

We have stayed here several times on spring break to celebrate our daughter’s birthday.

Nice place on lake

Nice place to stay on the lake. Fit our needs perfectly. Party deck was great place to hang out and chat! Lots of outdoor area to relax from the swings to the fire pit to the party deck. A leaf blower would have been a good amenity as we visited in the fall and the driveway and patio area were covered with leaves. Other than that, great place to stay in the lake!

The place was perfect once you past the steep driveway. It was a little difficult for us in a Ford Transit-350. The kids enjoyed the playroom. It was very.l nice home for us and the 6 kids to be together and also apart if they wanted space. Would recommend this place.
