About this house rental

Situated in Smith Mountain Lake, this lovely house for $300 per night is a great option for your next trip. Gibbs retreat is centrally located in the beautiful quiet wooded subdivision of Beechwood West at Smith Mt. Lake, making it close to shopping and activities. By water it is located at R 31 on the main channel of the Roanoke arm of the lake, less than 5 minutes by water to Hales Ford Bridge, Bridgewater Plaza and more. In just a 15 minutes drive you can access the main shopping areas of the lake, restaurants, gift shops, children activities, putt-putt golf. We are only 45 minutes from Roanoke and 55 to Lynchburg; making it easy to spend the day in either place. Gibbs Retreat is just as beautiful in the fall, winter and spring. We are surrounded by trees to enjoy the beautiful colors in fall and spring. Winter is a great time to visit and enjoy quiet time around the fireplace. SML offers a lot of fun festivals including Pirate Days the 3rd weekend in July, SML Antique and Classic Boat Festival in September, SML Home Tour in October, and Chili Festival in November. You will also find plenty of fireworks for 4th of July and events during December for Christmas . Winter would be a wonderful to spend time with family putting puzzles together, playing games, celebrating Thanksgiving or Christmas. Worried there will be no decorations for Christmas, no need I decorate the inside of the house for Christmas. Winter would also be a great time if you are an author and need a quite place to write, quilters or scrapbookers….. Gibbs retreat is comfortable 3 bedroom wood frame house with an extra large den.

My family decided to pretend it was summer vacation for one more weekend. Had a great stay at Gibb’s retreat. Really appreciated the close proximity of the boat ramp, and having a boat dock on property. Loved the location of the house near Bridgewater, and thought the house absolutely suited our needs. I imagine sitting on that back porch would be sublime in the fall!

This house was perfect to make our smith mountain lake vacation complete. Everyone from our 3 year- to the preteens, teen agers, adults, and even our dogs LOVED this location and home. We loved having two master bedrooms. The kids enjoyed a game room all to theirselves. We got quite the work out from the steps, and we enjoyed taking afternoon walks in the neighborhood seeing all the deer! The property managers were very responsive, and readily available to help with any problems. The only downfall was being in the open channel, the guys had trouble catching any fish, but besides that we LOVED this house.

Our stay was very nice at a beautiful home in an awesome area. The weather was great the wildlife were enjoyable and we had loads of fun on the lake. I can't forget 'the ice cream boat' either. Nice touch!

We had a wonderful week's stay at Gibbs Retreat! Fully stocked kitchen with all the cooking utensils, pots, pans, and serving dishes needed to take care of our party of 8. Only complaint it's located on the main channel of lake and a boat lift would be nice to keep your boat from rough rocking in the wakes of passers by. Outside of that, we had a fabulous time and the Gibbs Retreat met all our needs!

Beautiful home that included just about everything you’d need. The neighborhood is lovely and quiet. The hosts were wonderful and quick to respond to questions. When we’re at the lake, our family loves to swim off the dock and enjoy the more quiet water activities like paddle boarding and kayaking. This location had extremely busy boat traffic which was loud and kicked up lots of wake and waves. If you will have a motor boat then this probably won’t bother you and you will enjoy the activity of this area on the lake. It rained for lots of our trip so we were inside more than we hoped. Thankfully this was enjoyable because the house is so amazing.

We really enjoyed our stay at this property, the property was well stocked with anything one would need for family of eight. In hindsight I would have looked for property on a cove; on the weekends water traffic is high and water very turbulent, difficult to enjoy the small beach. Also home was dusty upon arrival but other than that no real issues.
