Quiet place with plenty of space
Met up with family to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary, and we had enough space to manage for both kids, adults, and older adults. Bedrooms were large, the place was clean, and the outside spaces were fantastic (porches, fire pit area, and dock). We really enjoyed the use of the kayaks to take in the beautiful views on the lake, and would definitely stay there again!

Perfect getaway for a group
The entire stay was seamless and full of thoughtful touches from booking to check out. The hosts are very responsive to messages and questions (and I had lots!) and made sure our group of 11 had everything we needed. The house itself is bright, clean, and with a great layout for large groups. Everyone had their private space with bedrooms and bathrooms, but we were able to maneuver the kitchen to prepare food and enjoy eating all together on the expansive second story deck. The views of the lake were serene and the firepit was a lovely bonus for the cool nights. The teenagers loved the kayaks and the parents enjoyed watching them maneuver the water. It had just rained so the lake was a bit murky, but fine for the kayaking. Really appreciated the life jackets.The kitchen is incredibly well stocked with thoughtful touches like little sauce bowls and plenty of baking and serving dishes. And we never ran out of utensils...which for many grownups and kids drinking coffee and eating breakfast is a testament to how many spoons are available! The kids loved the game room and set some new records on the working arcade games. No quarters needed :)And everyone commented on how comfy the beds were, which is a huge plus when you're dealing with so many sleepers.We truly enjoyed the home and it made the graduation celebration that much more special that we could spend so much time all together and comfortable.Would definitely stay again!

BYOTP, but overall, this lakehouse is fantastic
Know ahead of time: Bring your own toilet paper, paper towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash. (And iron/ironing mat if needed.)Our party of 11 arrived to only 8 bath towels in the whole house and none of the above supplies. The cleaner brought more towels the next morning - enough for one per person, and we did a load of towels in the laundry every day.Overall, this lakehouse was amazing, and we really enjoyed our stay! We'd stay again in a heartbeat. The fire pit was the neatest one I've seen, the kayaks were really fun, the layout of bedrooms was perfect for our group, the house was beautifully decorated. The game room was fun even for adults. The hammocks on the back patio were a neat touch. The kitchen was stocked very well. The house was clean, homey, felt bright and cheerful and exceedingly comfortable. We spent many hours on the second story back deck, and the furniture there was really nice. The setting is gorgeous, and you can really see the level of detail and care the owners put into the property.

Wonderful Stay
We had an excellent stay at Smith Mountain Lake. Holly and Delisa were very communicative and answered all my questions promptly. The house was clean and they even provided simple syrups with their coffee maker! Hope to come back soon!
