Pros: Cute house and fantastic location on the lake. Master bed soft and comfortable with great master bathroom with big tub and shower and 2 sinks. Basement bedrooms okay. Kitchen was well stocked with cups/plates/pans. Outside decks were perfect with nice view of the lake and trees. Very quiet neighborhood and cove. Close to marina and grocery and restaurants. Was easily able to rent a boat at Parrot Cove and dock at house. House was very comfortable for family of four, and we enjoyed the pool table and dock. Towels and sheets very clean and comfortable. Enough parking for 3 cars. It was really good stay and I highly recommend the house. There are a lot of stairs both down to the house and then down to the dock but we didn’t mind as if it gave us a little exercise during a very relaxing week at Smith Mountain Lake. Suggestions to host for improvement: The carpet could likely use replacement soon (but it didn’t smell like pets). Note, I have aversion to shaggy carpet over lower pile carpet or hard wood, so others might be good with carpet throughout house. Blender was cracked so couldn’t use it. Sliding glass doors don’t have screens (weather was nice so would have been nice to open those to air out house and hear outside woods noise). Lighting in hall bathroom upstairs kept flickering and changing colors (may have been bulb). Basement a little musty but to be expected at the lake.
