Scout's Hideaway on Beautiful Smith Lake

Fully furnished lake cabin perfect for couples or small families. 2 BR 1 BA tucked away on the upper part of the beautiful Rock Creek branch of Smith Lake. Stretch out on the swim pier and enjoy 220 feet of shoreline on this wooded three-acre lot, or canoe to the headwaters and see some incredible limestone bluffs. Shower under the stars and moon or the early morning sun in the (hot/cold) outdoor shower. Peaceful and secluded, but minutes away from conveniences in Arley and Addison. Dine indoors or enjoy the outdoors on the deck. 1 queen bed, 2 bunk beds. Central heat and air. Free fiber optic Wifi. No telephone landline.

Perfect lake cabin
This property was everything we could wish for in a lakeside cabin. Secluded, quiet & beautiful land complete with a gas grill, fire pit, porch seating for cool evening dinners, spacious dock for lazy days fishing or swimming and a canoe with paddle’s & various sized life jackets for exploring lake Smith. The cabin was super clean with all of the necessities. The beds & linens are comfy with extra blankets just in case. We loved our stay & recommend to everyone.

Clean Lakefront Cabin
Cabin is well stocked, very clean, lots of privacy. Comfortable for a couple and our pet. We pulled a 17 foot fishing boat and was able to manage getting in and out of the concrete driveway. Owner responds quickly and supplies all needed information.

Quiet Family Time
We met are Airman for his birthday. The cabin was off the beaten track and was cozy, cute, quiet and relaxing. We had fun fishing, playing cards and spending time together. Little lizard scampered about, the canoes offered a way to be on the lake and we enjoyed evenings grilling out and by the fire. The owner was helpful, accommodating, and replied to all our request and needs immediately. Wonderful getaway!

Hidden Gem
My husband and I along with our maltipoo went for a short weekend getaway and it was wonderful. The house is perfect for a small family. The house had everything we needed and the Wifi was a huge plus since we had no service. We enjoyed fishing— there’s always a bite no matter where you go in the lake. The check-in process was smooth and we have no complaints. We look forward to returning.

Sweet and private getaway
Loved this charming cabin. The hosts have done a great job updating it so it has everything you could want, and is homey and comfortable. The spot is very private with trees all around unlike some lake properties that have all the natural growth cut down. Plus I was able to bring my little dog. We’ll be back!
