Familienfreundliche Ferienunterkünfte in Smith Mountain Lake

We stayed at The Frances home July 6th thru July 13th, 2024. The house is so much nicer in person, the pictures just don't it justice. The beds were fine, the kitchen is well stocked and the place was very clean. Tons of room on the lower level to spread out and enjoy the pool table and ping pong. The lot is sloped but not too steep and they have a very nice, concrete walkway. The owners allow use of their kayaks, canoe and tiki hut on the dock. The hot tub on the lower deck was a great way to relax and enjoy the lake view. The house is in a no wake cove and just across the water from Jake's Place. Super close to the SML bridge and Bridgewater marina. Jake's has a restaurant, camper park and beach area with a slide. They do provide internet although we struggled many times with the connections, just power cycled their router and it was back up and running. T-mobile is the provider, I believe. The one major negative is no trash service, not even trash cans. Gotta fix that...

This was our 2nd stay. It's such a great place to spend time with family--lots of room & things to do...and a very well stocked kitchen. And they lake is so peaceful. Thank you, Charles and Nancy, for sharing your beautiful place.

Beautiful scenery. Fully stocked house (THANK YOU). They have kayaks, a wonderful outdoor firplace/gas grill (with a small fridge and microwave as well! Hightly recommend!

Quaint and peaceful place perfect for a long weekend gateway! Alicia is a very responsive host that quickly addressed a couple of minor issues at check-in. We ate a couple of times at the golf club’s restaurant nearby (~10min away, good food) and ordered in from a local pizzeria for our last night at the lodge (Alessandro’s). Highly recommend this place.

Ms. Michelle hosted my team as we were in town for a tournament and we thoroughly enjoyed the large space with the nice bedrooms, spacious living rooms, and the hot tub. We had access to everything we needed, with Ms. Michelle even getting some extra towels for us. A great stay!

Thank you Joseph. Your place is so convenient and we love that you are pet friendly. The dogs get so excited as soon as we get close to your neighborhood. It’s amazing how well they remember. We didn’t get to take a walk this time because of the snow and ice storm but we got to relax, watch a movie and sleep comfortably before driving the rest of the way to our vacation destination. Thank you for checking in on us also.

This was the perfect relaxing location for our family over Spring Break. Convenient to Bedford and allowed us to easily visit nearby parks and historical areas. We loved seeing all the farms and animals nearby as well.

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.

We first visited Nature’s Retreat a year ago & booked again for this year as we were leaving. It is the perfect spot for a couple visiting Smith Mountain Lake. Well equipped and comfortable, private and peaceful, near the lake and surrounded by nature. Beverly is a fabulous host, responsive and helpful!

Kelli's place was absolutely perfect for our party of four + dog! We were visiting for a wedding with many events throughout the week, frequently coming & going. Location was very convenient to downtown & just off the main road for us. We particularly appreciated that while the place felt homey, it wasn't overly full of decorations covering every surface, making you feel like your belongings are going to get easily lost. It was well equipped to cook at the place & we wanted for nothing! Kelli was extremely kind & accommodating to our schedule. We would definitely stay here again!

Jennifer’s place is such a gem. If you like being on the lake and having all the toys and amenities already taken care of for you then this is your place. I have my own kayaks but it was nice to not to have to worry about bringing them. Kayaks for adults and kids, paddle boat, paddle board, beautiful deck, multiple ladders to get out after swimming. They have board games and a karaoke machine that was so fun. The porch was so nice and relaxing. Better than the pictures. You should stay here.

Chelsea was an excellent host. Very responsive to our needs. Provided great restaurant recommendations

Had a quick one night stay because of travel delays, but Jodie’s place was a great place to stay. The experience matched the expectations and description. We were glad to be able to find this place to stay. Jodie was very proactive and responsive to communications.

Staying with Mr Jane was a pleasure. The location was perfect, the apartment was cozy and spotless. The place was well-equipped and the beds were surprisingly comfortable. This is a peaceful downstairs apartment with private entry and beautiful backyard with swimming pool. Mrs Jane was always available to answer our questions. unforgettable experience! Highly recommended!" 

Great location at Bernard’s Landing - right next to the club house with the pool and other amenities. Very large space that could easily accommodate 4 couples. Would definitely stay here again!

This was a beautiful place! Hosts were very detailed and had many great recommendations!

Great place to stay. Easy access and everything was clean and in order We would stay here again

It was super cute and close to plenty of things to do. Also a nice little view of the water, which we loved!

We had an amazing stay! Such a great location and lots to do inside the community. I recommend it!
