This lakehouse is located in a beautiful and quiet cove! House is very clean! We didn't spend too much time in the house as we enjoyed the screened in porch where we watched wildlife everyday! The dock is beautiful where you can catch some sun rays or relax in the shaded screened in area! The water in the cove is pristine and perfect for swimming, kayaking, SUP boarding and fishing! The bass were stubborn, but my son managed to catch a decent size largemouth off the dock! Can't beat the scenery from the dock as you look into the main, deep area of Smith Mountain Lake and see the mountains in the background! We rented a pontoon from The Dock at SML (which I would highly recommend) as it is just two coves from the house! Unfortunately, due to abnormally low water level, we were not able to dock our boat at the house, but it wasn't much of an inconvenience leaving it at the marina as it is only a few minute drive on Smith Mountain road from the house. Chris is very accommodating and responds very quickly to any concerns you may have. Thank you Chis for sharing your beautiful SML lakehouse! My family and I had the perfect getaway!

Another perfect stay at this amazing cottage! Even though the weather wasn’t ideal, the two screened-in porches gave us the perfect places to relax, play games, and enjoy the weekend. This cottage continues to be our favorite spot to unwind and recharge. Chris is an exceptional host—responsive, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. We couldn’t be more pleased with both the accommodations and the outstanding customer service. We look forward to coming back every year that they will have us!

We stayed three nights at this location and it was awesome! The screened in porches were definitely a favorite hangout and the quiet atmosphere was perfect. The only downside was that the third bedroom has no privacy. The bunk bedroom is in an open area which was a little hard for our teenage daughter, but not a dealbreaker.

It was a wonderful week. The house is in a fantastic location near the damn area of the lake. The dock is wonderful and easy to swim off of and the room above the dock was great for the kids to play games in and just hang out. I have no criticisms, except a minor suggestion of maybe adding some more kitchen supplies like mixing bowls, etc. we had a great day.
