Cute, perfect lakefront stay for two.

Very cute accommodations with everything we needed. Only comment is lack of a working gas grill, but we were okay with this as we just used the stove to cook the few times we cooked dinner.

Short stay at Smith Lake

This small cabin is perfect for 2 people. Had a lot of fun even though it was kind of cold so we didn’t get to enjoy the water. Will have to go back for warmer weather.

We had a very relaxing time and the views are stunning! We had an issue with one of the a/c units when we got there Friday after 5 and they had someone come out that very night to repair. Would definitely recommend!

A Little Slice of Heaven

This is the most perfect place to go for much needed rest and relaxation! The house is perfect for two. It’s beautifully decorated and has everything you need for a short getaway. The weather couldn’t have been more perfect. We especially enjoyed sitting in the deck watching the sun shine down on beautiful Smith Lake. The bed is very comfortable and that shower is amazing! We will definitely return!

Beautiful house on smith lake. Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful house on smith lake. The driveway is little difficult with a boat attached. 4wheel drive every morning when I’d leave seemed to work great. Other than that. Great, quite place to stay and enjoy the lake

Best Weekend Ever

I and my fiance had a wonderful stay here over the 4th of July weekend. The owner was extremely easy to communicate with and check-in was a breeze. The pictures do not do this place justice. The private dock is amazing we are looking forward to our next visit to Smith Lake and this property. I rarely leave reviews but couldn't wait to submit this one.

Perfect Getaway

My wife and I decided to have a weekend getaway here this past weekend, and it was a dream! We absolutely loved it!! We have stayed at Smith Lake before but this view was hands down the best we have ever had. There was also a small waterfall right next to the property which was perfect during the afternoon and late night fires. Stephanie was fast to communicate with me and provided very good suggestions for hiking trails! We will definitely be back! I will be recommending this place to everyone!

Fantastic

We loved it!! The property was clean and well equipped with grill's and fire pit. The deck was nice and the view( OMG). The inside was so clean and comfortable. The view from the bedroom window on the lake was breath taking. My wife loved everything about it and she wants to come back ASAP. So do I. Thanks for making us feel right at home. We'll be back soon.

Lovely Cottage on Smith Lake

Very comfortable living space with beautiful views of the lake. Host always prompt with replies to questions (very helpful host). Of note, steep incline driving down to the parking area then limited space to turn vehicle around in order to drive back up and out. Rock steps down to property require careful attention to footing especially when carrying luggage.

Wonderful Weekend Getaway

The house was great for me and my wife. We stayed three nights and had a blast. Great location and nice swimming dock with plenty of floats and the lily pad was the best. I would stay here again in the future. The only “complaint” I would have is that the pillows on the bed are thick and firm so I would bring your own pillow. Overall everything was perfect. We accidentally broke a succulent on one of the shelves inside and I messaged the owner and she was very understanding and didn’t make us pay anything extra for it. We did go to the store and bought a new one to replace it though lol.

Cozy cabin on the water

We stayed for 7 days here for our anniversary. It was so peaceful- you have houses right beside you but it didn’t seem like anyone was staying there - the cabin was small and cozy - bed was comfy (pillows were firm if you want to bring your own). The view of the lake was amazing! We brought our boat and used the boathouse for the week - a huge plus- the biggest negative would be the driveway - especially if you are hauling a boat- you will need to back down into the driveway- it’s a bit steep and nowhere to turn around once you’re at the house. The only other “critiques” would be there’s no closet space whatsoever- which is doable - we just kept things in our suitcase- and there’s no curtain on the front door - we used a blanket to keep it covered. Those are very minor things. Overall it was excellent. We ate at a couple local places - The Grill - which is right on the water and just a few minutes away and Kat Daddy’s BBQ - both are must try’s!! Pretty much any other restaurants are a good 40min drive - which was also ok with us… The communication with the owners was great!! Quick response time and will answer any questions and try to resolve any problems if there are any. Would definitely stay again!
