Lakefront - 7 beds - 4 baths - Hot Tub!
I booked Travis' place for a work weekend with colleagues, and it was easy for everyone to find from the airport, with easy check-in. We were basically able walk right in and proceed with our weekend. Everyone had their own space in the house, with wonderful main rooms to gather in. We also had many meetings outside and even down on the dock as the weather was so beautiful, and to be right on the lake gave us the setting that we were imagining when we initially booked the space. On walk-in, the space was immaculately clean, everything laid out well and the kitchen was superbly stocked. The photos of the whole house are accurate. *We shopped before arrival on our way from the airport as the grocery store is a little ways away, but Travis provided us with excellent options, and always was quick to respond to any questions. Beds all had excellent mattresses and provided each of us with great sleeps. Check out was simple, instructions clear. A fabulous weekend and will book again.

Family Lakefront Oasis - Dock, Cabana, Game Room
This place was absolutely worth a weekend with family away from home. Luca was incredibly responsive and went over and beyond to ensure we were comfortable. If you are elderly or have small children, it’s a bit of a climb to get back to the house from the lake, but it helped keep our blood flowing! Lovely place regardless!

Serene Cabin, Dock, Beach, HotTub, FirePit, Kayak
Beautiful location! We truly enjoyed relaxing by the lake while we visited. The home had everything you need to take advantage of the amenities offered; lifejackets for the kayaks, basketball, skewers for roasting marshmallows in the fire pit, golf cart to get up and down from the lake, dog bowls, etc. We did not need a boat for our stay but it would be a great option to rent one and be out on the water. Crista sent info before hand to make arrangements with a local rental place. The hosts were very kind and communicated easily. Great place!

The Gate House - Lake Views and Private Cove
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.

Kookaburra's suite
Great location and beautiful views of the lake. During the day we took advantage of the boat house/dock and in the evenings we relaxed outside by the fire pit. The house was very roomy with several places to entertain and relax. The property was close to several bars/restaurants and a grocery store. would highly recommend this property for a family vacation

Shady Oak at Water’s Edge
Shady Oaks is located in a quaint development right on the water. It's heavily wooded with lots of shade. The neighborhood is generally quiet and there is a private road that loops down and back. The house is well maintained and features lots of outdoor space to enjoy your stay. Water access is via the dock which also features an elevated deck above the dock. The kids and I spent most of our time at the dock--enjoying the cove by either fishing or kayaking (2 come with the rental). Relaxing on the deck was also great in the evening. We brought our puppy since dogs are allowed (extra $25 per day upto 2 dogs). It was nice to have an enclosed deck off the main level for our puppy to enjoy with us. The beds were very firm memory foam, but comfy. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, utensil, gadgets, spices, and oils. The location is convenient to the state park (a must), Virginia Dare boat tour, restaurants, and shopping. Overall a good 3-day weekend stay.

Lakefront | Boat Launch | Kayaks | Pet Friendly!
Alisha’s lake house was the perfect getaway for my family! Right on the lake, a huge yard for kids and dogs to roam and play. I sat on the porch reading while hubby fished. The house is about 10-15 minutes from any of the main stores and shopping centers!

Anchor’s Aweigh
Absolutely great place to stay! Exactly as described and it was beautiful. The deck is the perfect place to hang out with your family with the grill and all the space. Inside was cozy and well kept. Stocked with games and books for kids. Joseph was responsive and a great host. We are definitely looking forward to booking with him again!

Hillside Haven
We love Peggy’s place. The view is wonderful, and everything well apportioned. This is our second stay and would gladly visit again.

Lakefront Condo Bridgewater Marina Waterfront
My sister and neice and I stayed at Key To Stay's condo for 2 nights in February. I had previously stayed at that same condo in November. I originally gave this condo a great review, which is why we rented it again. This visit had a few maintenance issues, but they were eventually resolved and Key To Stay made sure to reach out to me personally to make sure we were satisfied. I do appreciate their commitment to making sure they improve the guest experience. I will definitely be staying here again after the wonderful customer service. The location is beautiful, the lake view can't be beat. The area has some great places to eat also.

Asylum at the Lake - Unit 306
The only thing wrong with our stay was it wasn't long enough! The condo is beautiful and clean. There was a welcome cheese and cracker tray in the refrigerator for us when we arrived. The lake is gorgeous and we could have sat on the balcony watching the boats come in all day if we didn't have places to be :) There were 8 deer munching on the grass!!! It was the perfect place to stay to see a show at The Harvester. Great coffee/breakfast place just 10 min away, also on the lake. I can't wait to come back when it is a little warmer and take out the paddle board :)

Cozy condo on Smith Mtn Lake

Spacious pet friendly Cottage w/dock & hot tub
We loved our short stay at this beautiful lakefront vacation home. It was quiet and peaceful, and it has a lovely scenic view of the lake as soon as you drive up. It definitely exceeded our expectations. We would gladly stay here again.

Two waterfront cottages on 11 acres w private dock
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!

LAKEfront Cottage in a Quiet Cove~ 4 Kayaks!
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++++++

4BR lakefront cottage with dock - dog-friendly
The lake house was absolutely perfect. The house itself had everything we needed and plenty of room for our stay. The dock was great and lounging in the lake on floats was so relaxing. There is also a really cool lakeside restaurant and bar about two minutes down the road that was an added bonus. Definitely want to visit again!
