Welcome to Cedar Key Village, a charming lakefront community of 11 homes. This spectacular all Cedar lake front Cabin is nestled in a secluded no wake cove. Beautiful lake side garden adds to the beauty of the lake and mountains. Boat slip and a semii-dock provided.
Amazing views of the lake and mountains surrounded by deep woods. There are very few homes on the lake that have such a beautiful view. The gardens in front of the cabin are simply lovely. My husband worked hard for four years to create this magic for you! The all cedar cabin is very well maintained and always spotlessly clean. Read the reviews, everyone just loves it. It is simply charming and inviting. You will not want your vacation to end.
The entire house is for your use, including your shared dock with your next door traveler. You can drive to your dock, only a few properties on the lake have this feature or you can take the 1 minute walk. Driving is great if you have a cooler for your boat.
Our parking lot is just a minute to the cabin by foot. You will unload in front of the cabin and then park in the resort parking lot.
Smith Mountain is a hydroelectric lake which means the lake levels will go up and down based on electrical usage. Typically you don't notice it unless there is a big rain storm coming and they lower the lake. We have a floating dock in the cove which works great for launching your kayaks, canoes or paddle boards in case the lake is lower.
There is no trash service for our side of the lake but we do have a dump 5 minutes away. We ask all guest to take trash to the dump prior to their departure.
We offer free wifi and have great cell connection

In case you want to know a little bit about your hosts, we are both retired and loving it! We were the original developers of Cedar Key. We purchased it in 1983 when it was a operated as resort since the 1970's. We have loved Cedar Key and have been an active member to maintain its beauty and serenity.
My husband worked for the Farm Credit Administration for over 30 years as its Chief Financial Analyst. I was a social worker for years in the District and then worked as a Realtor for 22 years in Northern Virginia. We have three wonderful adult children who love Cedar Key. We made wonderful memories here as I know you will as well

The cabin was perfect. We enjoyed relaxing on the deck overlooking the lake and watching the stars at night. The host was very responsive if we had a question.
We enjoyed our stay at the lake. The cabin was cozy and comfortable. Our favorite thing to do was simply sit on the deck and enjoy the beautiful lake, the mountains, wildlife and the wonderful peace and quiet. Thank you Alicia for sharing your home with us.
first time to smith mountain lake and we had a wonderful trip. location was ideal, cabin was a nice place to rest and relax at the end of the trip. communication with the owners was easy and they were very helpful. we really enjoyed it and will be back!
Our family (my husband, our 13 yo son, our 10 month old baby, and myself) stayed at the cabin for a short weekend visit. We found it clean and easy to access. It had all of the things we needed including a high chair (which was a nice bonus). The dock was lovely and our son spent a lot of time fishing down there during out trip. The views from the cabin were really nice and the area was peaceful. Overall it was a great experience and we would certainly rent this cabin again.
Beautiful location — the lake is crystal clear, there is a lot of wildlife, tons of fish, and a lot to do. The host was wonderful — tons of recommendations for restaurants and other things to do. We will be back!
Very nice, clean and comfortable cabin on the lake with awesome views. Was looking forward to a quiet getaway and this place did not disappoint. Communication with the owner was excellent and there were no issues whatsoever. We highly recommend staying here.
Beautiful cabin inside and out. The views of the lake were gorgeous and the host was very responsive and detailed. Will definitely stay again if I return to Smith Mountain Lake.
We had a wonderful stay at the cabin. The view is gorgeous! The cabin is cozy and comfortable. Decorated so nicely. It was peaceful and quiet. I was hoping to see the stars at night (which I am sure would have been amazing), but a tropical storm came in and the skies never cleared. Alicia was great and contacted us as soon as we arrived. She gave us ideas on places to go and things to see. Great communication. We had no problems at all. Would definitely love to come back again!
The Cabin is cute, cozy and perfect for the 4 occupancy limit. It’s right on the water and the lake was clear and soo inviting. The coolest most convenient store, The White House convenience store was within 10 minutes and offers everything you need to stock up. I can’t wait to go back to the cabin.
We stayed in a small 2 bedroom cabin with lake access. The views from the deck were great. We were in a no wake area on the lake so the lake was perfect for kayaking and any powerboats were slow movers.
Beautiful location and view. A cabin in the woods, but also at a lake. Went for the changing of the leaves and it was beautiful.

GREAT PLACE TO STAY!
We had a small family reunion and rented the home as well as the cabin. We had a fantastic time! Perfect layout for us. It was very clean and it had everything we needed!
Beautiful property. We loved how quite it is during the day, and the best part, no wake zone. The sunsets are amazing. Property owner is very responsive and even took the time to search for my lost wedding band. My wife and I truly appreciate the all around service and treatment. Highly recommend.
This was the perfect cabin for a relaxing weekend to celebrate my birthday in a tranquil place. The cabin was perfect. We absolutely loved the fact that she truly had everything we needed for our stay. It was nice to be able to cook and have everything necessary to do so. Her communication was awesome. We are looking forward to coming back.
The host was incredible, easy to contact with quick responses. The cabin had everything we needed for our stay. The views were absolutely breathtaking. Would definitely recommend this property and host.
