Wedding Stay
Hosted the bridal party for our daughters wedding, a total of 14 people. The property worked out great for us as a home base. Plenty of hot water, AC worked well, mostly on heat during our stay. Ample kitchen space on main level. Master B/B very nice and on main level away from other bedrooms located on lower and upper levels.
Jones and family
It was a great property. Kitchen was phenomenal. We had around 7 women cooking at once and it went great. There was some wear and tear on the property but all in all wonderful stay.
Fall break!
Beautiful and spacious property. Ideal for a gathering of multiple families.
Amazing house, incredible location!
The pictures don't do this beautiful house justice! The house is HUGE and incredibly well furnished. The downstairs is a movie room and game room that will keep you entertained for days! Kitchen is amazing, bedrooms are clean and comfortable. The dock is a great place to hang out, and the lake is crystal clear! I had high expectations for this house, and my expectations were exceeded!
All in all a good experience
The house was found as described. Having a pier and banks in certain areas around the house property that allowed smaller children to wade in the water without having to jump in was a big plus for our family. The only downs were that the TV did not work and attempts by the management company failed to get it working. This was somewhat missed by those who wanted to just sit in and relax. Upon arrival there was some dirty dishes left in the sink from previous renter. Other than that, it was generally clean.

The house & lake are beautiful & had everything we needed for an extended weekend! The grounds were unkept & need work. There is a wonderful sandbar on the side of the home but it is almost unreachable due to overgrown bushes. All in all it is a beautiful lake home!
Beautiful home, beautiful view!
My extended family shared this home for Christmas and absolutely loved it. There is plenty of room for large groups to spread out and the common areas are also large enough for everyone to congregate together.
Wonderful Stay
My family and I had a wonderful time in this home on Thanksgiving 2019 weekend. Plenty of room for everyone, great Smith Lake views, and an awesome level back yard. The ice maker downstairs is currently not operable, but we made it fine without it. Convenient to pontoon rentals! Would love to come back for another stay! The Ward Family

Nice house, needed curtains or shades on most all bedroom windows. Grass needed mowing and weeds needed pulling.
Thanks for the feedback. Yea, our landscaper had changed jobs and not told us. We got this corrected. We will take a look at bathroom windows. Thank you for the 4 stars.
Beautiful home will be back soon
