About this property

Welcome to our Lake home at Smith Mountain Lake! Located on a quiet cove perfect for fishing, kayaking, floating and even taking a jump off the dock. Come for lake time and enjoy the relaxation of being waterfront! After a full day on the lake, come back to enjoy the awesome game room or relax on the porch.

Red Rock gas station and "Vinny's" Italian restaurant are both within walking distance. Popular Bridgewater Marina with multiple restaurants, bars, shops including an ice cream shop is a quick 3 min drive. Kroger and Food lion are also near by. We have 2 kayaks and a paddle board for guest use. We are pet friendly but have a small pet fee of $50/stay per pet with a 2 pet max.

Game room downstairs with a 8' pool table, darts, books, board games, and foosball table make for a fun night after a day on the lake. Large screen TV with cable and ability to sign into your streaming apps to watch your favorite movie or football game. Lots of seating upstairs and downstairs to make your stay relaxing and fun.

We recently installed 2 cameras, one facing the lake and one facing the top of the driveway. Both are used to monitor the condition of the driveway especially during the winter months and security of the house from the lake. We will not take photos or videos of guests and is only activated as needed, motion control and recordings are kept off unless monitoring conditions as noted above.

Nice weekend away

We enjoyed our stay at this cute house. The inside is nice, plenty of places to sit and enjoy a book or the view. Could have used a quick sweep but otherwise was clean. I would say it would be a tough house for a family with littles as two Bedrooms are down stairs and one upstairs. The pool table & foosball table was a ton of fun and we played each night. The outdoor stairs to the fire ring and dock was a little steep and could be an issue for some especially since there are no railings. Even though on a busy road the noise does not make it to the house. Luckily the garbage can was already at the curb because dragging it up the hill and the end of our stay, would have been a workout. All in all a pleasant stay in a comfortable home.

Nicely equipped lake house. Watch out for the driveway and the steps to the lake. Both are steep. if you have a boat or rent a boat, load/unload fishing gear, coolers, etc that you plan to use on the boat at the Marina. Fishing in the cove is limited to small bluegill. Overall, good value for the money.

Great Long Weekend! Everything we needed / wanted!

The house was perfect for our long weekend with family! There were 4 of us (adults) and there was plenty of room and space to spread out. The house was exceptionally clean and well decorated, so it really felt like a home. The kitchen had everything we needed and there was a grocery store right down the street. The outdoor space is even better than what you see in the pictures. First of all, the house is right on the lake, so there's a great view. There is a huge deck on the top level, a deck off of the basement / gameroom level, a fantastic separate firepit area with adirondack chairs and decorated with lights, and a small private dock. Like most of the houses in the area, it is on a slope, so you have to walk down stairs to get to the lake / firepit area. Not a problem for us, but probably wouldn't be great for someone with mobility issues. We used the kayaks provided (there was also a paddleboard) and spent several hours paddling on the lake. One day it rained, so we played pool and watched movies in the basement / game area. We also went shopping at some of the stores nearby, and hung out at a lovely coffee place 5 mins away. We had one very small issue while we were there and Lydia was super responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend and look forward to returning next year - hopefully in the summer so we can swim off of the dock! Thank you Lydia for a great stay!!

Exactly what we were looking for

We were here to do work on the lake for my husband's boating app. We need a house close to the Bridgewater Marina and where we could dock our boat for the week. House was located five minutes from the marina. It is on a main road but you don't notice the traffic when you're at the house. Beds were comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. We would stay here again if we get a chance to come back.

Kayaking

Inside was much nicer and larger than seen from the driveway. We enjoyed kayaking, floating on the lake and games.

About the host

Hosted by Lydia Hart

We love to travel, eat out, and watch movies as a family. We work hard so that we can play hard. As our kids have gotten older, we have found it harder to enjoy time together as everyone is busy running around with their activities or work. So getting away is our way of forcing everyone to take time for each other.

Why they chose this property

We love the lake! We use to come to the lake before the kids were born and now we love spending lake time as a family with our kids and friends. We love that the quiet cove which allows for us to kayak and paddle board.
