Great weekend Getaway!
Wow! The views on the water here are amazing! This property was exactly what we needed for a quick weekend getaway with family but I wish we could have stayed longer! The house has everything you need and more! The host was easy to communicate with and made checking in/out very simple. Would recommend to any larger groups or families!

What’s better than hugs from the Grandchildren!
Spending time with our children is important and can be challenging at times. Grandsons at BAMA and SAMFORD inspired the Thanksgiving vacation to Smith Lake. This property is so much more than a rental, it feels like a family home. The bedrooms, 2 living areas with fireplaces, amazing lake views, large dinning area, and fully equipped kitchen is the perfect home for our family. Accented with art inspired by the surroundings. A small grouping of family pictures topped off the warmth of the home. Access to lake is only a few steps from the fire pit and outdoor dining area. We enjoyed spectacular sunrises and the golden hour of the sunsets. Our family enjoyed fishing, reading, a round of golf, and sitting around the dining table! A place where memories are made. The host is the best! Simple check-in and responsive to our questions.
