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.

Lakefront Retreat | Great Views, Pool, Dock Access
We had a great stay at the lake house. The house was clean and well appointed. Communication with the host was effortless. We have stayed at this property before and were pleased to see many upgrades, particularly the upstairs bedroom and the master space downstairs. Highly recommended for a peaceful getaway to the lake.

Asylum at the Lake - Unit 306
Very modern interior with a peaceful deck overlooking the lake. Extremely accommodating host (we were traveling with an infant). Place has everything you could need (cookware, utensils, tea/coffee, etc.) - would recommend :)

Smith Mountain Lake Luxury Condo
Traci and manager Sophia were super responsive to requests and texts. The place was very clean and as advertised. The location is walkable to the marina and a quick drive to other restaurants, state park, and grocery. We would definitely book again.

Cozy condo at SML in Money, VA
Perfect for a cozy get away. Clean and cute. The beds and linens were super comfortable! Wish I had more time to enjoy the location and tranquility! Shandi was an awesome host! Thank you!

Cozy condo on Smith Mtn Lake
Andrew is great and has a nice spot! Only bummer was the pool was closed for the season, but that's not on him. Have a nice stay!

Lakefront Home w/dock near Bridgewater/Bars/Food
We loved our stay here. The walk from the house to the dock was easy for our grandma also. Got to park our boat to the dock. Very peaceful. Loved it here. We will definitely be back.

Scenic Waterfront A-frame with hot tub and dock
We had a great stay! Very peaceful and relaxing. Caitlyn is a tremendous host.

Family Lakefront Oasis - Dock, Cabana, Game Room
Very accommodating to the group staying here, very easy to reach out to and get quick responses

Lakefront • Hot-Tub & Easy Dock • Luxury 4-BR (2-1
This was our first trip to Smith Mountain Lake. We were in town for a wedding at Water’s Edge Country Club. This location was very close to the country club and wedding activities. The home has a beautiful lake view on a quiet cove without speed boats and jet skis racing by all day. The dock was convenient for swimming and relaxing. I had to call host Ronald upon check in with a couple questions and he immediately called back. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and appliances. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms stocked with towels. The only reason for the 4 star on location has nothing to do with the home, however there is a marina with a boneyard of heavy equipment that you pass through coming and going. Overall we had a great weekend.

Farmhouse Luxury
Fantastic place with great history. I can tell Jim is a great steward of the grounds. this is a place that really needs to be experienced 2-4 weeks at a time. My little girl was scared when we pet the horses but the picnic at the top of the meadow made up for it! I encourage all to really explore the grounds. word of advice for those city folks out there, come in from the west side through bent mountain. The east side entrance from can be treacherous. thank me later and unwind!

Cozy Lakeside Mountain Home
Robert was very welcoming and responded promptly to any questions that came up. He is very invested in creating an exceptional experience for his renters. The waterfront and back porch were among our favorite places to be. A very tranquil and private home surrounded by stunning natural beauty. The home is in a quieter part of the lake, but it was easy to pick up items from the nearby Mini Mart, and there is a Dollar General within a 9 minute drive. Very little traffic on roads in the area throughout our stay, which was greatly appreciated. The kitchen had all the seasonings and cookware we needed, and the beds and linens were very comfy. Robert provided an excellent referral for boat rentals, and we saw much of the lake via pontoon. This was exactly what we were looking for! Thank you, Robert!

Shady Oak at Water’s Edge
This was our second year booking with Dan and Jill, and we were again very pleased with our choice. The home is cozy, quiet, and on a fantastic cove that’s just right for our crew. The deer were aplenty, and the weather perfect. With linens and bath towels now included in the rental, it really is such an easy decision. Can’t wait for next year.

Waterfront home with 3 bedrooms and free parking
Great host. Very responsive. The place was extremely well maintained and very clean. Everything worked exactly as it should from the keyless entry to Internet access. The property is located .5 miles down a gravel road, which is rustic and dusty. The area is rustic as well. The price was a little high for a manufactured home but it was a holiday weekend.

Smith Mountain Lake Getaway
Perfect for dog lovers and lake lovers! I’ve rented various condos at Smith Mountain Lake and several different ones at Stripers Landing, but Shannon’s place is now my new favorite. With a great view, plenty of space and the option to bring the pup - it’s such a treat. Highly recommend.

Charming Lakefront Condo at Bernard's Landing
This was our first time staying at Mick’s and our second at Bernard’s Landing. We LOVE the area and LOVED the place. The porch swing was my absolute favorite- the perfect place to watch the sunrise. Mick was very proactive with our needs, everything was laid out in the instructions, no questions needed. The decor was just like the photos and was perfect for our needs. It was clean and cozy. We are already looking forward to planning next year’s anniversary.

Lakefront condo w/breathtaking views
Just as described. Will be returning on our next trip!

Southern Escape @ Bernards Landing w/ Kayaks
The condo was perfect for what we were looking for. We enjoyed coffee every morning on the deck overlooking the lake. The pool was great and the beds were comfortable. We would definitely stay here again if we were in the area.

Incredible Sunsets! Boat Slip Included!
Great couples place with fantastic views! Short drive to restaurants and grocery. We really enjoyed our short stay here and had everything we needed. Bed was super comfy and we enjoyed coffee in the morning overlooking the lake! We didn’t begin to use all the amenities offered as we were there for other reasons but a free boat slip, grill picnic areas and the pool were definitely inviting.

Penthouse View - Smith Mountain Lake
Absolutely loved our stay! The place was spotless, beautifully maintained, and stocked with everything we could possibly need. The view was stunning and the location couldn’t have been better—close to everything yet peaceful and relaxing. The host was incredibly accommodating and responsive, making everything seamless from check-in to check-out. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

Walkout waterfront condo in Bernard's Landing!

Bernard’s Landing Hillside Lake Escape @SML
We totally fell in love with Lauren's place! It was clean, peaceful, and beautifully decorated. This was our second visit to Smith Mountain Lake, as we are starting to get a feel for possibly retiring to that area. Lauren answered any questions we had quickly. We would definitely like to go back!
