Great location on Smith Lake. Near Trident Marina. We brought our boat as there is an open dock slip with the house. Not a steep drop from the house to the dock, which is two-story. At the dock, amenities from kayaks to SUP boards. House has an open plan, with many amenities and modern appliances. Absolutely would not hesitate to stay again. Owners very responsive to any inquiries during our stay.

This home was absolutely perfect to celebrate the end of summer and treat our son to a long weekend with his close friends before school starts. To say the home comes well equipped is an understatement. The kitchen set-up was so convenient with a large table that set 8 and oversized island with comfortable seating for more. The kitchen is spacious and made all the cooking we did more fun. We bring everything with us to cook but inevitably you forget something and the nicely stocked spice cabinet came in handy in a pinch. The Blackstone was a great touch and we certainly used the charcoal grill - both cleaned and ready for use. The four bedrooms were spacious each with their own bathroom and extra blankets and plenty of towels were provided. There is also a half bath in the living area which was convenient. The boys enjoyed the foosball table in the downstairs area that also has sofas and a TV which allowed a place for them to hang out. The paddleboards and kayaks were a great addition and we had room for our rental boat to dock. Wonderful sunset views made each night special. The home is very clean, nicely decorated and all the furnishings are new. The porch had nice seating, too - very comfy and there's also a table and chairs if you wanted to have a meal out there. The host is responsive and easy to communicate with - she responded nearly instantly! Very welcoming! We had a great time and would most certainly rent this home again!
