Smith Mountain Lake: soggiorni in alloggi con kayak

This home was very nice, and the private little beach was perfect for our little kids. Home was clean and we had a great time. Only thing I would want other guest to know is that if you plan on cooking your meals like we did, you want to bring a cutting board and peeling knife with you and maybe some mixing bowls and spices. We managed but I would have brought all that had I known. I would still highly recommend this home.

We throughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at Rachel’s and Chad’s lovely home on Smith Mountain Lake. It was very clean and comfortable, making it a peaceful place to relax and enjoy the wonderful lake area. Rachel and Chad were great hosts, leaving clear instructions, and being quickly responsive to any questions we had. We would definitely stay there again if we were visiting the area.

Beautiful and serene weekend retreat. We felt so at home. Hosts spare no expense to ensure that quests are content. I will defenitly stay here again in the future.

Had a great time here…it’s one of the nicer ones I’ve been to…felt like we were in a post card picture it was so beautiful with the river running through. The host was great too. Would definitely recommend this place.

Our family loved our weekend in SML. This was one of the cleanest rentals I have ever stayed in. There was so much space and room to entertain and most importantly seating for everyone. Stephen is a great host. He was extremely responsive. The pictures don’t do Cedar Key Retreat justice. Everything was just perfect.

This was our second stay at Kate's beautiful home and we are already planning a third. Quiet and peaceful with absolutely beautiful views of the cove and lake beyond. The house is sparkling clean and well appointed with everything you could possibly need. Even though the weather didn't cooperate we found plenty to do to keep ourselves entertained.

This was the best stocked AirBnB we have ever stayed at. It made our stay so much more enjoyable!! The whole house is just lovely. Thank you Rachel for being a great host. We would definitely stay here again!

I offered five stars. There were a few tiny things that need attention—which happens when one’s property is being handled with a management company and not the owner unfortunately. We prefer more personal stay, but chose this property because of location. We do not regret it at all!!! We did notify the management company and they were quick to respond. Beds are perfection. Pillows are perfection. The space and view are perfection. Lots of water toys. We rented a boat and jet ski from across the water for two days, so the dock was AMAZING!!!!! We spent most of our time on the water. Would stay again.

Had such a great stay at this house. Beautiful scenery, lots of porch and outdoor space, relatively private from neighboring homes. Bedrooms and amenities were as described. Kitchen was pretty well stocked w/ cooking implements and whatnot. Elizabeth is a super responsive, friendly host that made us all feel at home. Would def go back!

Ben was a perfect host. Very communicative and will do whatever it takes to make the stay as good as possible. Beautiful property and very cool layout with multiple dwellings on the property. So many beds! Great lakefront just an easy walk down from the main house. The deck with fire pit and outdoor TV along with the wiffle ball field make for a great place to hangout and spend the day with your group! Would definitely book again!

This cottage is perfect for a family of 4. The location is right next to the lake with a small walk down to your private dock that already has 4 Kayaks. We did lots of fishing off the dock and off the kayaks. The back deck is perfect to start your day sitting and having some coffee and then finishing the day sipping on some wine. The cottage is very clean and very organized. It had everything we needed for our stay. The decor is very warm, cozy, and inviting. We felt like we were at home. There is a nice fire pit next to the lake that we used one of the nights. Taylor helped us with any questions such as restaurants, shops, and where to watch the sunset while having dinner. We did horseback riding at Spring Valley Farm near the cottage. We also stopped along the road to pet some cows since there’s a lot of farms and open land. Views are wonderful all around. We will definitely come back and stay for a longer time. Taylor thank you for having us in your perfect cottage !! A++++++

A Nautical Nook was a peaceful place to spend Labor Day Weekend with our two dogs and college-age kids. We loved the dock and used kayaks each day to paddle up the lake. Our dogs loved chasing a ball in the backyard and swimming with us at the water’s edge. The location is close to Smith Mtn Lake State Park and Mariners Landing, the latter where we ate dinner three nights, rented wave runners one afternoon to explore the larger lake, and played golf one afternoon. Robert’s kitchen had all we needed and the screened in porch was great. We didn’t have any issues during our stay but up until our visit Robert was very responsive so we imagine he would have been quick to respond had anything been needed.

This cabin was a very nice place to stay. It was clean and had everything we needed. There were 3 of us and it was perfect. My youngest son loved the loft. The host is extremely responsive and very friendly. You are staying on the host's property (their residence is across the driveway) but we found them to be very hospitable and friendly yet left us alone. We loved the outdoor area with lights and the fire pit. We were there primarily to attend the a Nascar race in Martinsville but I would go back again because there is a ton to do in the area.

Our family had a fabulous time at One the Rocks. The setting was gorgeous, the kids loved the boathouse set-up and the house was very well stocked with everything we needed to make Easter dinner. We loved having the flexibility of the other cabin when our group grew. We hope to come back next year!

We enjoyed a wonderful long weekend stay at the cabin. The surroundings are beautiful and had we been in the area to enjoy ‘lake life’ this cabin would be a perfect fit. We were in the area to visit some museums in Roanoke and usually stay in hotels, but our dogs tend to bark and that bothers the other guests. As the cabin is dog friendly, we were able to crate them for a little while, while we enjoyed our day. Our host provided plenty of towels for our use, though we were surprised that there were no washcloths provided. When I mentioned this to our host, she said they’d take that recommendation for future guests. I’d also suggest that a box of tissues would be a nice addition (fortunately we had one in the car). But this is nitpicking, really. Bottom line - it’s a beautiful cabin and the surroundings are the same. Any lake loving boater would be right at home. And our host was friendly and communicative.

My kids and I loved going between kayaking, enjoying the hot tub, and relaxing. Lovely spot!

What an incredible spot! Ryan’s place is a dream. We had such a wonderful stay and are so grateful to have enjoyed a little piece of heaven. Morning coffee on the porch and seeing an eagle was the absolute highlight to the trip! They had everything we could need and more and were so thoughtful in how the home is ready and set up for their guests. Would recommend this place a thousand times!
