Jul 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful family getaway Our family, with 3 generations, had a wonderful time together at this home. It is exceptionally well stocked with sand and water toys, life vests, 3 refrigerators, kitchen appliances, etc. It's in a beautiful and quiet cove, just a short trip from the dam and other nice areas of the lake. The kids could easily play on the beach or in the water, and we spent many hours in the near by coves tubing and doing other water sports. This was a great house for our trip. ##### Laura F.

We went for a quiet girls trip and could not have found a better place to stay! The property was clean and comfortable and had everything we need and more. The views of the lake were stunning and we were even able to get out on the property’s kayaks and paddle boards in November. The kitchen was a great size and well stocked.

We utilized every aspect of this great house: great big kitchen and eating area, grill and huge deck with a great view; the young kids loved the hot tub in the AM; fire pit was a great bonus; everyone loved time on the dock and in the water in the quiet cove. Would absolutely rent this house again! ##### Justin D. ### 10/10 Excellent #### amanda s.

Aug 22, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Ideal Lake Vacation What a great stay we had! This property is ideally situated on a quiet cove, where the main lake is easily accessible, but the house and dock are private. The house setup is excellent for kids--the dock and beach are viewable from both the deck and the kitchen, so its easy to keep an eye on the kids while they are swimming. Moreover, the house is extremely well-equipped, notably in the kitchen. Anytime we wanted to cook something, we'd open a drawer or cabinet and find the utensil or pan or appliance we needed. Nancy and Charles were very helpful when we spoke with them, referring us for boat rentals and such. All in all, this was an excellent vacation home and we would absolutely stay here again next time we come to SML. Thank you! ##### Jeffrey C.

We had an amazing week in an amazing home. There was everything and then some that we needed with the house to have a perfect week. Rented a boat for the week which is a must if you don't have your own. Nancy and Charles are the perfect homeowners and stock their home with everything you will need! Lovely cove for swimming, awesome hot tub to relax in and a perfect back yard with fire pit and gorgeous dock for diving in the wonderful waters. I hated leaving today. Look so forward to going back again. Don't hesitate to rent this lovely Lake front home. It was everything we wanted for a relaxing and fun lake vacation! Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us. Everyone had a blast. ##### Julie C.

We were in cove where the kids could swim and use the kayaks provided. Water was deep off the dock where the kids fished everyday. Inside, the game room kept everyone busy and the large screen TV was great for movies in the evening. There was wood for the fire pit. The owners provided excellent customer service to include an in-depth book that included restaurants and grocery stores and the history of the lake. They included places to rent boats. It also included directions for using all of the appliances and the kitchen had everything imaginable to cook with. I would definitely recommend this beautiful property to our friends and relatives. Three happy families from Springfield, Virginia. ##### Brian C.

We were able to plan a celebration that afternoon after the graduation for her friends, professors and other family to attend. The kitchen has everything you need. The backyard with the dock and the lake is exquisite. Everyone who came couldn't stop raving about how comfortable and beautiful the house was. In fact, my sister tried to rent itthis year for her daughters graduation but sadly, it was already rented. Beautiful. Truly! You won't be disappointed. We will definitely rent again! ##### Janine C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lauren U. Jun 6, 2018 #### Best Family Vacation in 25 years Of all the vacation homes we have stayed at from lakes to the beach nothing compares to this home! We have stayed at many top of the line rentals but this one has stolen our hearts! This home is not just a rental it feels like a true family vacation home. The owner Nancy is so special to me. She made me feel so welcome like we were family. The home is beautifully decorated with everything you could ever need. She has all the dishes and kitchen accessories to have those big family meals that most of us in our busy lives do not get to experience often. We really enjoyed the meals at the big kitchen table for dinner and breakfast on the deck. It is so private you feel like you are on your own island. We had so many laughs and memories made this trip!! The water is crystal clear for swimming. The sandy beach was perfect for our four year old. She played all day and caught several fish with her little pink fishing rod! The boys enjoyed the kayaks and paddle board! There are also other water toys provided. Nice high quality floats to relax on. The fire pit was so much fun with s'mores and stories of the day. Then of course you will love the hot tub overlooking the beautiful lake! It is breathtaking. We also had family fun night in the game room! So may smiles and memories made I can not stop smiling about the best vacation ever!!! If you are looking for a very private and amazing vacation home then you have found it. I think you will find what is remarkable about this home is all the thought put into it to make it feel like "your family's vacation home". Thank you again Nancy can't wait to return! ##### Lauren U.

The house was clean, the property was well maintained and there was plenty of room for everyone. Plenty of parking as well. The dock was awesome and had plenty of space and furniture for everyone to sit and hang out. We will definitely be going back! ##### E G.

Wonderful week with family - very quiet cove with clear water for swimming. Kitchen had everything we needed and second fridge in the garage came in handy. Loved being able to have all of us fit at the dining table for dinner! Enjoyed hanging out on the dock and making 'smores by the fire pit. ##### Patricia R.

We rented Journey's End for a family reunion and had a wonderful time. We are all siblings and our spouses - all of us are seniors - and this place was perfect for our stay. We enjoyed using the kayaks, the paddle boards, the dock & the fire pit. There are plenty of comfortable bedrooms for the 7 of us and multiple places for dining on the deck & kitchen. The kitchen is well supplied with dishes, cooking equipment, and anything you may need. Thank you to our hosts for a very special stay! ##### William W.
