This latest stay at the Huddleston lake house was our second, a return from last year, which expresses our satisfaction. The location is a perfect summertime getaway for a family that enjoys water activities with a view!
The property was great and family friendly. We enjoyed our stay and its proximity to Mitchell's Point Marina, which allowed us to rent a boat for the day with ease.
Place was awesome , hope to be back next year !Owner was great to communicate with answered all questions! House was up lifting a was everything we expected! Plenty to do , easy to keep five year old occupied!
Another great stay at “Lake living at its finest!”
This sweet little cottage was perfect for our end of summer SML visit. Our favorite spot (next to the awesome wide lake view from dock) was the cozy screen porch-from morning coffee, lunch, to wine-time and dinner- this was our go-to indoor space. Can’t wait to return.
This was a great place to stay for our family. The owner had everything set up nicely and was very responsive in communication leading up to and throughout our stay. It’s a beautiful place which a spectacular view on the lake.
Would definitely recommend staying here and we will certainly do so again!!

The view from the screened in porch is beautiful. The dock with plenty of seating was very nice. Easy access to the beach was wonderful. There were many repairs when we were there that needed attention. The couch and chairs in the picture had been switched out for a couch very old and uncomfortable. The basement was uninviting to sleep or hang out.
My family and I have stayed at various locations throughout Smith Mountain Lake and this lake house quickly became our home. All the amenities were as described and access to this quiet area of the lake was perfect. Great mountain and lake views and enough relaxing fun for the entire family. Book early!
The house had all we needed to have a great time, the kids spent a lot of time on paddle boards and we had a wonderful stay enjoying the lake, watching movies, board games, the fire pit and the grill. The host was friendly and always responsive. Would recommend for sure!
We had such a fantastic time staying here. The house was exactly as we’d hoped with a beautiful screened in porch and comfy beds. We loved the dock and swimming in the lake. It’s very convenient to the marina and the local store. The house was perfect for our trip and we would definitely stay here again. Thank you!
