About this house rental

Nestled in Smith Mountain Lake, this charming house for $440 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. My wife and I have been on VRBO with our first property "Happy Wife" VRBO# 1050898 since 2017 and although we did not expect it we found the managing of the home to be rewarding both in the fact it is an activity we do together and because of all of the wonderful people we have met along the way. A quick look at the "Happy Wife" will show that with 69 reviews and a 5 star rating that we are very serious about providing a fantastic vacation experience. Recently purchased home on Smith Mountain Lake with a long list of amenities ... perfect for summer vacation at the lake! Plenty of parking and room enough for a boat trailer! Located at the end of a Cul-de-sac in Goodview VA this home ("Happy Life") is a perfect compliment to our other VRBO rental "Happy Wife". The home is located on the main channel and we absolutely love to watch the boats go by all day long yet, because of the way the dock is situated relative to the channel there is plenty of safe space for swimming, canoeing, kayaking, and ... well exploring. The dock is huge with an upper level that is in the sun all day long and then a lower level with a 12' x 12' floating dock that is perfect for swimming and fishing. Standing in the main level it is possible to have a view of the lake over what is almost 180 degrees are one turns toward the kitchen with the many windows present. The entire lower level of the home has been recently finished and furnished to provide a wonderfully comfortable setting for a perfect getaway with friends and family. The home has a total of 8 beds including a king bed in the main level master, a pair of bunk beds on the main level in the kids room, and another with a queen. The terrace level features two more king beds. There are a total of four bathrooms a full and 3/4 bath on the main level and two 3/4 baths on the terrace level. The living area on the main level includes a 50" smart TV and the living area on the terrace level includes a 55" smart TV both of which are set up with xfinity cable service. The home includes blazing fast wireless internet at over 200 Mb/sec. Just a few of the finer points for the home are: - The kitchen area is amazing. It almost feels like you are outside with the crazy number of windows. - The main level master includes a balcony and seating with water views - The terrace level master includes a deck area with seating and water views - The home includes three full sized refrigerators two of which are outfitted with automatic ice makers. - The main level includes a deck with water views and a portion of which is covered for enjoying the shade after many hours of sun. - The terrace level includes a deck with water views. - A metal fire-pit is available and fires at the lake are amazing! - Linens are provided - plan to bring your own beach towels. - The terrace level includes a ping pong table for hours of entertainment. - With decks, docks, balconies, and the wooded lot there is a place for everyone. - The large section of land at the top of the driveway to the right as you face the home will accommodate almost any trailer.

Beautiful spacious home on the lake with a stunning water view. Would have loved to stay longer. The Halloween decorations were a pleasant surprise. It was a wonderful setting for our girls weekend. Thank you to our host for being so accommodating with our arrival time.

Great time celebrating my husbands 50th at the lake. Plenty to do with the dock, a canoe, kayaks and paddle boards for use during your stay and a nice game area for those rainy days. Fire drum right off lower level deck so you don’t have to walk all the way down to the dock to enjoy a fire. Well thought out vacation property stocked with everything you need for a great trip. We will be back!

Lake house was amazing! Was a perfect place for our family, friends, and fun! Views of the lake were super, huge dock was perfect for morning coffee, and the downstairs game room/bar was our favorite hangout (kitchen too)! Here for our daughter's wedding, we had plenty of room for all family and friends, and was a great place to come back and relax after all of the events during the week. Loved the decor, comfortable but very elegant. Bedrooms were huge, and the bathrooms were gorgeous. The owners responded quickly to any questions we had. We will definitely be coming back!! Thank you for a great stay!

Spent a week at Happy Life!! The house was perfect for a family stay…very spacious and very well stocked. The walk from the lake was tolerable….felt good to get the exercise. The kids enjoyed all the stuffed animals and games. Hope to make it back. Communication went well.

Group of family and friends visited “happy life” and had a wonderful time. The house was soooo very clean and included everything you could think of…. Our boys caught a ton of fish off the dock and enjoyed floating around in the kayaks… really appreciated them taking care of the trash and the linens at the end of our stay which made for a very easy departure….awesome communication with the owner who was very accommodating and welcoming. Highly recommend!!!!
