Herons Rest

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Prepare to kick back and relax at this incredible Peaks-of-Otter stone cottage, located on the beautiful shores of Smith Mountain Lake. Truly unique and charming, the house has decks on two levels offering stunning views of the lake. You'll love the private dock with deep water and a floater for all of your water activities.

Surrounded by huge trees for privacy and shade, the property gently slopes across over two acres, with a large fenced yard for guests with dogs. Each oversized room overlooks the lake, as do all the decks and porches as well. Unwind in an Adirondack chair or relax in the hammock as you gaze out over the calm waters of the lake. Relax in the hot tub at night with the stars to guide you and the lake waters to calm you.

Inside, you’ll find granite countertops and wood floors. Two bay windows and large sliding glass doors offer an unobstructed view of the lake from the main level. A modern kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances (including a dishwasher). For those visiting in cooler weather, the house features a gas fireplace in the living room. Each bedroom has its own TV in addition to the TV in the family room. A pool table provides hours of fun for the whole group.

Great location!
House was perfect for our spring break getaway. Clean, neat, comfortable. Kids loved the canoe and dock for (cold!) spring swimming. Great area for the dogs to run around safely. Great view over the lake for sunsets and star gazing.

What a comfortable stay!!
We had such a nice week at Heron’Rest. The only thing I would suggest, please inform that the master is up a small flight of stairs. We had my 95 year old mother with us. She handled it, but it could have been a problem. Otherwise, well equipped, spotlessly clean, a beautiful property, and even a fenced in yard for our fur babies!

Great place on the lake
We had a wonderful stay. The boys enjoyed learning about bass fishing from Billy Kohls. Great hikes nearby. Hot tub was fantastic after the cold days. Wonderful fenced in backyard for our pups. Lots of games for rainy day, just wish there would have been pool stick chalk so my husband could’ve taught my son pool table shots. Excellent location! We would stay here again

Great vacation spot
The house was great as was the location. Kids enjoyed the pool and foosball. Even though we went in the winter, we loved relaxing in the hot tub and gathering around the fire pit. The owner/management company was super responsive - texting back right away, answering questions and just generally very helpful.
