About this property

Lakefront house with awesome dock! Quiet cove and close to all by water or land!

Beautiful house and a great location by land and water. This waterfront lake house is located in a quiet cove but still has views and easy access to the main channel. The stunning new dock provides an amazing amount of deck space with plenty of area for shade and sun. You can practically live on the dock. :)

By land, you are within 5-10 minutes of groceries and the central dining and shopping locations known as Bridgewater Plaza and Downtown Moneta. The area around Bridgewater Plaza includes boat rentals, putt-putt, pizza, ice cream, and live music on weekends. Two wineries are within 5 minutes of the house.
When renting: Please reserve your 5 - 7 night stay between Saturdays. Our cleaning service comes on Saturday to ensure our house is ready for each guest.


This house has been renovated inside, with new baths and hardwood floors upstairs. Three sliding glass doors open onto the composite deck. It also has 3 HD TVs and super-fast high-speed internet with a mesh wi-fi network. Linens and towels (bath and lake) are provided.

The brand-new dock is simply amazing, with lots of shaded areas, ceiling fans, a floating dock, and nice Polywood chairs and tables for relaxing. The floating dock is 24' long and can easily accommodate most boats if you are bringing your own.

First floor: Kitchen, equipped with dishes and pots/pans for basic cooking, has a dishwasher, microwave, flat top stove, and new refrigerator. There are two types of coffee makers, the Keurig and a 12-cup coffee pot. The dining room and vaulted family room each have sliding glass doors overlooking the deck and lake. The family room includes a large 65” HD Smart TV. Upstairs is a bathroom with a shower and double sinks. The front master bedroom overlooks the lake with a Queen bed, double closets, a TV, and a sliding glass door that opens to the deck. The other bedroom upstairs has 1 full bed and 1 twin bed.

Downstairs: Laundry room with large top-loading washer and dryer. The lower level full bath has a tub/shower and single vanity. The downstairs bedroom has a lake view, a Queen bed, and double closets. The downstairs den has comfortable couches with a TV and doors that open to the lake. The game room has an air hockey table and a foosball table.

The driveway is paved and parking is only a few steps to the kitchen and front door. The path to the lake is also paved but only for walking or a golf cart. There is a large yard near the road to park boat trailers - please make sure you can back trailers into or out of this parking location. The deck has a table and chairs. There are two kayaks for you to use. The lot has trees for shade throughout the day. The front of the house has a grill for cooking.

What Makes this Property Unique:
The house is updated and has big windows that let in lots of sunlight. It has a large deck with tables and chairs, that overlooks the water. It has a nice dock in a deep cove that is great for swimming and fishing. There is a 24' floating dock with cleats to tie up a boat or lounging in the sun. In addition, there is another 500+ sq ft of dock under the roof with ceiling fans, chairs and tables for time in the shade.

Great week at Smith Mountain Lake

We had a great week at Smith Mountain lake. The heat broke for the week so it was perfect for sitting out, grilling, etc with OCCASIONAL dips in the lake. The house was great, the dock was great - especially the new stairs from the fixed to floating dock, th location was great!

Wonderful place

This is our third year and, though the weather was not cooperative, we loved being there. The dock provided shelter, even during downpours, and the house is so inviting that the weather didn't matter- a great vacation for all of us. Looking forward to returning next year.

Beautiful clean home on a beautiful lake!

The house and property did not disappoint. It was better than the description and pics. Very clean, well stocked kitchen, comfy beds, great deck shaded with just enough sun, wonderful dock and a quiet neighborhood. Even had some basic supplies, either left by previous renters or the hosts, that could come in handy. Smith Mt. Lake was amazing and this house provided an enjoyable and relaxing atmosphere to enjoy the peace and quiet of the area. We have spent most previous vacation time at OBX, NC. Now we have a new contender for a favorite place to go and relax.

Amazing

This was our third summer staying at this property. Just like the other years, we loved the house, dock, and location! The host made everything easy and had good communication. The house had all of the amenities needed. The dock was perfect for our boat rental and had a nice cove to swim in. It’s a short boat ride or car drive to the state park beach as well. We had a fabulous family vacation and can’t wait until next time!

nice water and nice house. Some additions are suggested

We had a wonderful time, as usual at the lake. I missed having a master bath. Additionally, we needed more dinner plates and forks and knives. We had to turn on the dishwasher after every meal. The renovations were very nice and there were adequate TVs for the 7 of us.

You'll never leave the dock

Another fantastic week at the lake. The house and the location are amazing. The new dock pushes the experience into another dimension. We spent most of the day on the new dock- fishing, swimming, eating, napping. Despite a few days of 90 plus degree weather, the dock was comfortable and inviting. As my father said, there's nothing he would change - it's perfect.

Perfect End of Summer Trip

This is our 5th or 6th stay at SML, always renting a home, a boat, jet skis and and always on this side of the lake. In typical fashion spent 5 days on the water with our kids (21- 26) and several friends cycling thru from C'ville and NOVA. Perfect location for skiing/wakeboarding/tubing, easy to Bridewater or Crystal marinas and a nice dock for all the toys. Home obviously just remodeled and in pristine condition, top to bottom. Nice floor plan and perfect for our crew pre and post skiing. Gentle slope to water, very manageable for all (21-55) with a thoughtful flat grassy area lakeside at the bottom for sunning, sitting, viewing - very unusual for lakefront property. Only want is a fire pit, but obviously early in these owners hands and everything done so far is spot-on. Hats off to Sheri and Dale, very accommodating hosts, great communications pre and during and a very nice home. Well done.

Amazing vacation

I cannot say enough good things about this property! Pictures do not do it justice. Sheri and Dale have thought of everything you would need inside the home. Outside is a huge paradise! The view is breathtaking and the new dock is THE BEST! We fished, swam, kayaked, paddle boarded, ate dinner, read books, and enjoyed ice cream from the Ice Cream boat. We are already talking about going back.

Family Fun at the Lake

This was our second visit to this property and likely won't be our last. Sheri was very responsive and super helpful if we had any questions, but of course didn't need much because they have the house well labeled and appointed. We had a blast with the canoe and kayaks provided and rented a couple paddle boards to round out the non-motor fleet that the kids can easily manage on their own. The new dock is outstanding and was our favorite place to be! Highly recommend the property on its own accord and the location can't be beat!

Great lake front property

We enjoyed a great time at this lake front home. It met all of our needs. The large deck was great for sitting/reading/ and enjoying the lake view. The dock was convenient for parking our rented jet ski while eating lunch. The game room kept the kids occupied in the evenings. We also enjoyed the use of the canoe and life jackets to paddle around the cove. Very comfortable accomodations.

Great property that is big enough for the family and well equipped. Great location makes it nice to swim without worrying about boats coming through. Plenty of water toys, ski tube, water skis, paddle board, noodles, life jackets and various other toys. We very much enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back again!! We also rented a boat from Bridgewater marina. Thanks for sharing your home!!

Smith Mt Lake House Aug '21

Information from the owner was timely, accurate, and informative. House was just "as advertised" - clean, well appointed (kitchen had everything; water sports equipment was easily accessible); dock was well constructed (felt very safe with the kids), and the grounds around the house were well maintained. Owner left excellent instructions for check in and check out, as well as helpful signs for everything from using the washer/dryer to carefully labeled light switches. Overall, a very pleasant experience, and good value.

Amazing Vacation Spot

We had a fabulous vacation at the lake!! The house was perfect- clean, updated, and had good internet. The walk down to the water was easy and not too steep. The dock was great and was easy to park our boat rental at. The location on the lake was perfect and the cove was an ideal swimming spot. We were close to Food Lion (10 min) and close to the State Park (15 min) which had a great beach that the kids loved. I can’t say enough good things about the house and the lake. We will definitely be renting again next year!!

Perfect location!

This was our first visit to Smith Mountain Lake as a family vacation and we could not have asked for more! The location of the home is absolutely perfect!! The awesome state park is very close (really nice with family friendly and more challenging hikes). There are two fabulous wineries nearby and, best of all, the lake location could not be better. The cove was perfect for swimming and enjoying non-motored boats, especially with our kiddos, who were learning and trying lots of boats for the first time. We thoroughly enjoyed the canoe provided by the owners and rented a kayak and a paddle board from Play All Day Sports (highly recommend also - they were great!). All were easy to paddle around in the cove and explore neighboring coves, without much traffic or wake from motor boats. The kids also enjoyed the game room and caught fireflies in the yard. The house was well equipped and we really appreciated all the thoughtful labelling and helpful guides. We hope to return in the future -- all was outstanding!

Host profile image
We love spending time on the water with family. We know the lake is relaxing and hope that you and your family can enjoy this wonderful place, too.

Why they chose this property

The house has a great layout with many areas to enjoy -- two family rooms one upstairs and one downstairs. A large deck outside with many sitting areas to enjoy the lake - part in the sun and a covered area for shade. The lot has a gentle slope to the lake and beautiful views. The driveway is paved and the walking path to the lake is also paved.

What makes this property unique

Every room in this house has been updated. New hardwood flooring in the entire upstairs. The upstairs family room has big windows that let in lots of sunlight. It has a large deck that overlooks the water. It has a nice dock in a deep cove that is great for swimming and fishing. There is a 24' floating dock with cleats to tie up a boat or lounging in the sun. In addition, there is another 500+ sq ft of dock under the roof with ceiling fans, chairs and tables for time in the shade.
