FALL BREAK FOR THE KIDS

The house was lovely, easy walk to the dock. Water toys were plentiful, the house was well appointed with a well stocked kitchen for cooking. The driveway is pretty steep but our Chevy Tahoe had no problem getting out.

Family Reunion

Our family had a wonderful time on the lake. The home was beautifully decorated with lots of added amenities. The view is beautiful. Peaceful surroundings. The only challenge we had was no hand rails on the stairs. It was only an issue for my 85 year old parents and 3 year old grandkids. Just something to keep in mind when deciding on sleeping arrangements.

Great Place

We recently stayed at a lake house at Smith Lake for a work retreat with colleagues, and the 10 year old son of one of the colleagues. The property was absolutely perfect for our needs; it had plenty of space to do our work, a nice dock to relax on, and the lake was beautiful. The only problem we had was the steep driveway and there were a few wasp nest that I would say need to be taken down had a friend get stung by 2 but other than that the problems were easily manageable. The property owner was great with communication, always responding quickly and making sure we had everything we needed. The house made it easy to relax and enjoy the lake, and the nearby towns had plenty of activities to keep us busy. All in all, it was a great experience, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a lake house retreat.
