About this property

Secluded Waterfront Get Away on Smith Mountain Lake

Nestled in woods of Cedar Key on Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia, enjoy a tranquil escape with nature. No wake cove excludes heavy boat traffic and noisy jet skies and provides a relaxing time and safe opportunities for water activities such as swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding, somewhat rare on the lake. New floating dock provides some further privacy.

Nestled in the valley of the Blue Ridge Mountains of rural southern Virginia, this is the perfect destination whether you are looking for some "downtime" or fun outdoor activities. The one mile tree-lined drive from the entrance starts your relaxing journey. After arriving, relax on the deck and enjoy the splendid views of lake and undeveloped mountains then head for the water.

This smoke free two-bedroom/one-bath vacation rental is situated on the shores of beautiful Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia. It features comfortable accommodations and stunning wide-water and mountain views! Perfect for a family getaway, Cedar Key Cabin includes one queen-size bed, two twins, one full bathroom with shower/tub, a TV, DVD, DirectTV, internet access, central heating and air-conditioning, open beams, and hardwood floors.

There's a deck with a charcoal grill and patio furniture. New -- now with private floating dock which is great for swimming and boating. Smith Mountain Lake is Virginia's most popular lake, Smith Mountain Lake, is a boater's and fisherman's paradise. It is Virginia's most popular lake and boasts 500 miles of shoreline on this 40 mile long, 20,000 acre lake. If you have your own boat, you can launch it at nearby boat launch at Mitchell's Point Marina and dock it at the Cabin's dock. Boat rentals and wave runners are available at several lake locations.

Place was a gem! Nice and quiet, time was so slow. Wife and I enjoyed fishing with a charter and just relaxing on the deck. Perfect fall day! Picture was off the deck overlooking the tree line, Sunday morning waiting for coffee to brew

Beautiful location and cabin. Very clean and well-appointed and the owner was very accommodating and responsive. My only reservation is that the neighboring properties are a little close. Would definitely stay there again, regardless.

Perfect weekend getaway - the porch overlooking the lake was so peaceful and where I spent most of my time with the pups. Easy access to fish (and put in a kayak if we had brought it).

Great cabin at SML!

This is a beautiful and serene property! Loved the private dock and the gorgeous lake view. The only thing that was less than ideal was the oven - it kept turning off and took a long time to cook our food. Perfect stay otherwise !
