Located on the end of a quiet cove with little boat traffic, the home has a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher and dining area which seats six and a cozy living room with a smart TV and DVD/Blu-ray player. A sun room extends off the living room. A deck overlooks the woods and dock. A full bath and a large master bedroom with a king size bed complete the upper level.

Downstairs is another full bath, a second bedroom with a queen size bed and a third bedroom with a twin over double bunk bed. The family room on this level has a queen size sleeper and another smart TV with a DVD/Blu-ray player. Sliding glass doors open to the covered patio. A washer and dryer are located on this level.

Residential Internet is now available in our area so we've added Internet and WiFi at our house for our guests.

The dock has room for your boat and PWC and there is a large party deck above the dock. You can take the stairs to the dock or walk down the gravel path. We've kept the rental price lower than most because there are a lot of stairs to get to the dock and portions of the gravel path are steep. New for 2024, we've added lights on the dock and the stairs as well as adding a fire pit behind the house.

A community area with a tennis court, 2 pickleball courts, a basketball area and a large open field with a volleyball court is across the street.

Crystal Shores Marina (formerly the Smith Mountain Yacht Club), a state boat ramp, several marinas and the state park are close by.

Location, Location, Location!: The house is conveniently located across from the R-27A marker which is between Halesford Bridge and the SML State Park. The Halesford Bridge area and Bridgewater Plaza are about 5 minutes by boat and 10 minutes by car. Here you will find several restaurants, shops, game arcade, miniature golf, and an ice cream parlor. There are also several marinas in this area that have fuel and rent boats and jet skis. The State Park is about 10 minutes by boat and 15 minutes by car. It features a boat dock, sandy beach, concession stand, nature tours and plenty of open area. The Westlake area is about 15 minutes by car and is inaccessible by boat. It has a Kroger grocery store, CVS pharmacy, several specialty shops, more restaurants and a movie theater. A Food Lion grocery store is only 5 minutes from the house.

More Features: The house is located on the end of a quiet cove with few waves and very little boat traffic. My kids love to swim and fish off the dock and there is a canoe and two sit-on-top kayaks available on the dock so you can float around the cove or paddle around the lake. There is a 10' X 20' floater for docking your boat or jet skis. Directly across the street from the house is a large open community area that is great for soccer, football, kickball or Frisbee and can be used for overflow car or boat trailer parking. A fenced multipurpose court is also located here and my kids and I play pickleball, tennis and throw the lacrosse ball here. Pickleball paddles and balls are available for our guests to use.

We rent weekly during the summer, Sunday to Sunday. We take summer rentals of less than a week only if the house is still available at the last minute, like a week prior for a 2 night rental, two weeks prior for a 3 night rental, three weeks prior for a 4 night rental, and four weeks prior for a 5 night rental. When I rent, I like to pay a refundable security deposit instead of paying damage insurance so I've enabled that option. However, if you'd prefer to pay for insurance, please let me know and I'll enable that for you.
