We thoroughly enjoyed our week long stay. The location was great, convenient to grocery and restaurants. The lake was super relaxing and so fun to be in a cove looking out to the bigger lake and boats going by. A very quick response from Scott when needed.
Nice lake house with dock. Rented pontoon boat, cruised and fished. Close to grocery store and restaurants and the Homestead Creamery for the best ice cream ever. Stay was just too short.
Everything here was perfect - we had no complaints. We had two questions come up during our weeklong stay and the property manager responded each time in less than an hour. The view of the lake from the whole backside of the house was amazing! The slide on the dock was much enjoyed by a seven-year-old in our group. We have been coming to Smith Mountain Lake most summers for close to 20 years and this has definitely been our favorite property. We will return!
House was very nice, a bit dated. Cleaning could have been better. Took the blanket off the king bed and there was dirt and food crumbles and hair on the mattress. Also less than half a roll of toilet paper in each bathroom with no spares. Loved the area and other than above issues, our stay was great!
The family had a great time with days spent on the dock and in the water. The only downfall to the house are the water amenities. The paddle boat and canoe are pretty much not usable. The paddle boat is extremely hard to pedal and I noticed it takes on water with every turn of the pedals. The canoe cross sup[ports are rotted which kept us out of that other than the first time we tried it.
Owner was very responsive when we needed help. However, beds were uncomfortable (very firm) If you are bringing a boat, do your homework in advance. Many of the nearby marinas do not allow public use. The state park is your best bet. The dock and tie up area provide plenty of room and is safe for children and bathers. Regarding the house, it is old (including appliances) but very well stocked and the knives were excellent. The driveway is narrow and is suitable for only the best trailer driver. Overall a good experience for us and Scott is very helpful.
Property was spacious and views were beautiful! Plenty of space for my family. The house could use some upgrades, but as Scott has mentioned, the price then goes up as well. And you are in a beautiful location, and did I mention the views?! While it is a steep climb down and back up to the water, you're right on the water. There is a canoe and paddle boat, which we used on our stay without a problem. We did buy our own life jackets at a Walmart. The Foosball table was a hit for our family. Sitting out on the deck drinking coffee,and just looking out over the water was spectacular. We went in April, and while the weather was not cold, it was super warm either. During the summer months, this is an ideal spot. If it was warmer, we certainly would have rented a boat for a day or the full week as part of our vacation. There are multie marinas close by. My daughter and I went horse back riding nearby and there are many places to hike and enjoy the beautiful views. The hot tub was nice in the evening. Scott was extremely quick to answer a few questions when we arrived, and we enjoyed our time at Walls of Glass!
Very nice home, clean and comfortable. The walk to the dock was steep and long. Many other properties share the same issue. The path to the dock was well lit after dark which was a plus. Had a great time.
Overall a wonderful relaxing place to stay. Perfect for our group of 3 individuals. Roomy and had everything needed for a great get away. Will definitely return
We enjoyed the house and lake very much. The walls of windows are beautiful and the house was cozy. It’s not a fancy place but was perfect for a getaway. We’d love to come back again!
We had a great time at Smith Mountain Lake. The house is well appointed and in a great location. It was great to walk down to the dock and enjoy the morning sun.
We had a wonderful stay. The neighborhood was nice and quiet and we loved sitting out on the dock reading or in the living room with the beautiful large windows. Lounging in the hot tub was the perfect way to end the day. Everything was very accurate to the pictures and perfect for our vacation. Would definitely stay again.
We loved this quiet tucked away home away from home. The wall of windows provided a great view of the lake and morning sunrise. We were able to recharge our batteries before returning to our busy lifestyles.
My wife and I adored our stay at Smith Mountain lake! This cabin has plenty of fireplaces, lots of room to sleep, a hot tub, and super easy access to the water. The pictures don’t do the windows justice. We plan on returning!
The property was as advertised with many fun amenities including games, videos, music a great location and wonderful weather for our time. Scott the host was very helpful and we had a different excursion each day: boating, hiking, horseshoes, hot tub and so much more. This is a 5 Star resort with a great host. Thanks for the memories!
we had a great time, it rained 4 out of 5 days. we stayed in the screened in porch and enjoyed the view and our family.
talked to owner and he was very helpful. good walk to deck but was easier than using all the steps. would love to go back next year.

Great location the walk down to the dock was a little dangerous
It was nice I would come back, but I probably would also try something new. The trip was a little distracted because my son had pancreatitis and spent a day in the hospital.

Perfect weekend
The,home was clean and had all conveniences and then some. Loved the great room with wall of windows ans spent evenings playing board games from the huge selection there. Spent most of our day at the dock swimming, fishing, sunbathing and even tried the canoe and paddle boat for added adventure. Afternoon shade was welcomed and the hot tub a hit in the evening.The furniture is somewhat outdated but accurately reflected in pictures.
