Smooth Sailing Lake House

This property was wonderful! It has been beautifully decorated and just across from the lake. It has beautiful lake views. The home was well-equipped with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable!! Will certainly want to stay here again!!

Thank you for the wonderful review. We are so happy you had a great stay at Smooth Sailing. This lakefront complex is very special and unique to Lake Waccamaw offering an affordable, centrally located and nice place to stay. We own both sides of the road including the lake shore where the large deck welcomes you for morning coffee or an afternoon nap. Need sun or want to fish, the pier out on the water is perfect for those activities as well. When you decide to come back, if you have additional guests, several of the units are available to rent nightly, as well, making it a great location to have separate accommodations but still be able to spend time together while making great memories.

Good place to get away

Me and my family really enjoyed the property and it was nice and cozy and clean most importantly and provided everything we needed to stay comfortably and the pier was a great edition to the property and had a really nice relaxing view but all around a nice relaxable getaway for any occasion. Thanks!!

Thank you so much for the great review! We did a complete transformation on the Townhouse in 2023 so a lot of time and money went into this Labor of Love.

Beautiful home with some nice sunrises and sunsets over the water

I had a couple of times i needed to communicate with Lynda and she was always prompt, courteous and accommodating. My plans got changed and then extended my stay. The time frame being off season was a blessing in this case. The house itself was more than i needed so very spacious, quiet neighborhood and a wonderful small community. When i come back near town i will seek to stay here.

Both bedrooms are located upstairs. Not easily suitable for elderly or if you have difficulty climbing steps. Beds are very high to get into. No ceiling fans to move air, upstairs warmer than down stairs. Bathroom doesn't have grab bars in tub/shower for ease of stepping in or out. Front steps could use a rail for ease instead of holding glass door handle for balance. It is clean and nicely decorated.

Thank you for letting us know the things you would have like to have changed during your stay. This will prove helpful when other guests with phyisical restrictions or elderly guests who look at a townhouse to rent realize that they almost always have their bedrooms on the 2nd floor. We have a very adequately sized HVAC unit at the home but do appreciate the suggestions made about the ceiling fans. Future guests, there are just 2 outside steps to enter the main level. The back door only has one step. The beds are a little high but the tradeoff has been to have a large amount of storage underneath during longer stays and many guests have appreciated being able to tuck their luggage and event gear under the kings beds. I guess if you are under 5' 3" or under, you might bring a step stool? I am 5' 4" and have had no difficulty. I have loved being able to read my book and look over the lake from the primary bedroom. Thank you for being our guest.

Thank you for the 5 star review. That was much appreciated. As you may have guessed, we have city water from the town of Lake Waccamaw. I was not alerted to a break or line fix during your stay from any source, so I did not know of a disruption. It sounds like it was temporary and for that I am thankful. I appreciate your staying with us. We hope you come back to Smooth Sailing again. Lynda

The view was absolutely spectacular. We worked remotely and that was nice to have sitting at the computer looking at the lake from living area. The host was available and responded quickly. I would definitely use this property again, and recommend it to friends and family!
