SUMMER CALENDAR NOW OPEN! \"Challenge Accepted\" Gentle Slope, No Wake Cove!

About this house rental

Situated in Smith Mountain Lake, this charming house for $227 per night is a great choice for your next vacation. In a NO WAKE COVE with a GENTLY SLOPED LOT! Fast WIFI INCLUDED! We recently purchased this home and have painted and updated the furnishings. It is clean and comfortable with plenty of space for everyone! It is in a perfect mid-lake location, near the State Park at marker R-21. Inside you will find fresh new linens and decor, comfortable furniture and brand new kitchen appliances. There is plenty to do to keep everyone busy on a rainy day or after sunset. There are 4 new flat screen TV's with Xfinity service, unlimited data wifi, a pool table, air hockey table, and foosball table, and an arcade style game machine. Outside, it only gets better! This is what you come to the lake for! Huge new deck with plenty of seating and a large grilling area. The deck has expansive views of the cove and beautiful sunsets. There is a gentle slope to the dock that even the grandparents can do, with a pathway the whole way. There is a covered seating area at the dock, a floater with plenty of room to tie off a boat, and DEEP water. The dock is nestled just inside a no wake area, making it great for swimming and kayaking. There is an outdoor firepit with comfy new adirondack chairs. Also, new for 2021, we have removed the wooden pathway to the lake and replaced it with a concrete pathway! Occupancy limit is set to 6 due to limitations of Bedford County rental permit.

We loved our stay at Challenge Accepted. Our kids ranged in age from 7 to 17 and everyone found something to keep them entertained inside and out. The kitchen was well stocked. The beds were very comfortable and the view was priceless! We would love to stay over the summer to take advantage of all of the activities on the lake.

We really loved this visit. The home was exactly as described and was the perfect getaway for our teenage boys who love to fish! Coming in fall allowed us to use the kayaks during warm days and the fire pit on the chilly nights. We would love to return to this lovely home again!

Five friends from college got together at this beautiful waterfront getaway. With five bedrooms, we all had our own room, and had plenty of space in the house to reconnect. The lake view is great. We spent a lot of time on the deck relaxing in the fall air. we took nice long, walks up the road, running into some deer along the way. A tip for others, driving in late after dark, the last mile is past the dead-end sign, on a gravel road. I hope to visit again and would book here if available!!

We had a wonderful weekend at Smith mountain lake at this beautiful property! The kayaks and game room were such a great combo with having a mix of weather conditions - our 8-11yo’s had such a blast! Definitely hoping to return in the summer.

Everything was lovely, very well stocked, clean, great location on water with wonderful views. We were a little “thrown” when we reached the sign” end road maintenance, no turn around” so we did circle back only to realize the house was down this road. Two bathrooms had a bath mat, one did not Thinking of booking again in future Location and neighborhood above was left blank only because of confusion at road sign. Clarify directions and 5 stars.

We had such an enjoyable time at “Challenge Accepted”!! The house was very clean, has so much room and so many amenities! The owners have thought of everything! The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen is spacious and well-stocked, and we really appreciated all the pantry space for our food. There are so many comfortable areas to hang out, both inside (spacious living areas on both floors), and outside (beautiful deck upstairs and nice shady patio down, both with tables and plenty of seating). We were blessed with sunny fall weather and spent most of our time on the large dock sunning (plenty of lounge chairs), fishing, and paddling in the kayaks. The house is on a lovely location on the lake, just inside a no-wake zone. No fear if weather is bad…there is a combo pool/air hockey table, foosball table and arcade game machine. We just didn’t have time to enjoy all of these entertainment amenities! Maybe next stay? Terry was so attentive and responded to my inquiries and questions promptly. Overall, we had a fabulous long weekend, and cannot wait to book another stay! We highly recommend. Thanks again, Terry!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here…if only we could have stayed longer!! LOTS of room, very well stocked kitchen, plenty of parking, located at the end of the road so it’s quiet, fabulous location on the lake (right inside a no-wake zone) with kayaks, a canoe and a large dock, nice large gas grill, 15-ish mins to a grocery store…I could go on and on. Terry was a wonderful host! She was always quick to respond to any questions. If you have the chance to stay here…do it!!! Highly recommend!!

Spent several days at “Challenge Accepted” with family. While the weather wasn’t great, we thoroughly enjoyed the rental. The house is located on a nice cove of the lake; we found it to be clean, spacious and pleasantly decorated. The game room downstairs was perfect for the teens and the kitchen was well stocked with gadgets, pots and pans, etc. Would definitely rent this place again.

This was a great property! Filled with lots of space and fun. I flew in and stayed with my daughters and grandson. We did lots of cooking, board games, pool, air hockey and foosball. The home was as advertised. The location was okay but a little out of the way. We’re going to try the North Shore next or may get back to this in the summer. Thanks for having us…Team Burke

The house was very clean and had multiple sleeping arrangements. Spacious congregating rooms. The lake view was relaxing. It is a good 15 minute drive to Moneta or a grocery store. Most stores (in the 30 mile area) were closed for the season.

Let me start by saying that I am the gal that travels with Clorox wipes, I like clean spaces. This house is AMAZING!! We have never stayed in a vacation rental as clean and beautifully kept as this one. The pictures of this house on the listing do not do it justice, the amount of space this house has is unbelievable! There is plenty of indoor space to have a nice dinner even with a large family and even more outdoor space to grill out and sit around visiting with your family or friends while enjoying the view of the lake. It is at the end of the drive which gives plenty of privacy but isn’t too far from restaurants and grocery stores. The kitchen is so well stocked with anything you would need to cook and meal prep and the pool table/air hockey table & arcade games are perfect for the kiddos once the sun goes down. Our family was super sad to leave, we will be back!!

We were in town for a family wedding and long weekend with family and this property was PERFECT for us! We had little kids (4-6 years old) and they had so much fun swimming and fishing from the dock, kayaking, playing air hockey, blowing bubbles on the deck, etc. The house is just as advertised and is clean, bright and spacious. We had some family members renting another house come over for the afternoon to swim and they all agreed that this would be our rental house next we go to SML!!

Great place. Perfect size house stocked with absolutely everything you could need. Very clean and updated. The quiet yet deep cove was perfect for water activities of all kinds. Everyone loved the dock fans and new dock ladder. The meteor shower from the fire pit was spectacular. Would definitely 100% stay again.

Hands down the most relaxing vacation my family has had. The house has everything you could ever need along with enough space to spread out and not be on top of each other. The amenities are endless. The dock is very relaxing with plenty of shade, chairs and even ceiling fans.

Starting with the accuracy of the online listing, the level of the details provided, continuing with the cleanliness of the property, the modern functional design of the house, the lake access and amenities provided to the excellent level of support from the owner, this has been an excellent experience for us!

We throughly enjoyed our stay at Challenge Accepted. There was plenty of space for our family and friends. The owners have taken great care of the property and has made recent updates. The dock is where we hung out at the most. This house is located in a no wake cove and was nice with little ones swimming. The canoe and kayaks were fun to take out. Three suggestions to share, a fishing rod rack would be very useful at the dock instead of leaning them on the table. The downstairs patio area has a lot of room, maybe add a hot tub? The upstairs king bedroom bed will need to be replaced soon. Thank you for the great memories and we hope to be back soon.
