About this property

Main Channel Lots of Water. Comfy Cabin with stunning lake views, perfect for a serene escape at SML.

Perched on a bluff overlooking the Blackwater at Smith Mountain Lake sits The Retreat at Pine Haven. Spend your days enjoying the views from the covered deck, swimming, boating or kayaking and your evenings around the flickering flames of your own campfire ring. Ask about adding Kayak Rentals to your stay.

We are immediately available by phone, text or email if any need arises, but we will not disturb your stay.

Pine Haven is a unique enclave of log homes on 8 beautiful acres with 1200 feet of shoreline on Smith Mountain Lake.

You, your family and friends will have exclusive access to the entire retreat including the amazing fire pit and patio. In addition, enjoy shared access to the floating dock which is awesome for swimming or tying up your boat.

Enjoy this totally updated, two bedroom, two bath log cabin. Space includes fully equipped kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, 65” TV and high speed internet for streaming Netflix, Amazon Prime or Hulu USING YOUR OWN ACCOUNT. Amazing campfire ring and patio and huge shared dock.

We recommend getting around on the lake by boat when at all possible, but if you must drive, the property is accessible by car, suv or motorcycle.

There is absolutely no smoking allowed inside the cabin and due to allergies, no animals of any kind are allowed inside or outside of the house.

We had a wonderful stay. The lake and surrounding area were absolutely beautiful, and the setting made the trip feel peaceful and relaxing from the moment we arrived. It was a lovely place to slow down, enjoy the water, and spend time together. We would gladly return and would recommend this stay to anyone looking for a quiet lake getaway.

Cute clean cabin. kitchen was well stocked, even with some spices and other things. Great porch to sit outside. It's a lot of steps to get down to the lake, but it's beautiful once you get there.

The cabin was lovely and well-kept. The hosts were kind and quick to respond to questions. It worked perfect for our needs.Helpful info. for potential renters: It is a fairly lengthy, steep set of stairs to get down to the dock. It was too much for my parents to tackle.

Response from VrboOwner on 15 June 2026
Nina, so glad you enjoyed the Retreat. We loved hosting you. As with most properties at Smith Mountain Lake, there are quite a few steps. That is why we installed the shaded benches halfway down to the lake. Please come back soon.

Nice Place

My brother, sister-in-law and I came to Rocky Mount for a concert at The Harvester. We loved Rocky Mount! This place was conveniently located to Rocky Mount. It was nice to sit on the porch and watch the boats, and we had a great breakfast at the Marina. We would stay here again!
