About this property
Smith Lake waterfront retreat w/ hot tub, game room & private dock, sleeps 10
At Merrymore, mornings start with still water and steaming mugs, and nights end with stories by the fire and stars that look close enough to touch. This is the kind of place where kids cannonball off the dock while parents relax on the deck. Where game nights last too long and nobody minds. Where you’ll find all the comforts of home — and a few you didn’t know you needed.
