We found Raven’s Nest to be exactly as we expected. It was very clean, communication was excellent, and our family had a really nice stay. This is a premium location on Smith Lake. Be aware that grocery store is about 45 min away so plan accordingly. Also, steep stairs down to dock which is common on this lake. 5 star experience all the way around!
What a fun family home on the lake! It was too cold to swim or boat on the lake (November stay), but we did not lack entertainment. The home had plenty of games and activities for kids and adults alike. We had a fairly large group and there was space for all of us; we never felt crowded. Definitely recommend staying here!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear your group had such a great stay and found plenty to enjoy even with the cooler weather. It’s great to know the home’s games and activities kept everyone entertained and comfortable. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope you’ll come back to enjoy the lake in the warmer months!

family trip
Great place, only thing was the email that sent the log in information sent wifi information that was not right so we did not have wifi till the last night when I saw the correct information in the binder or another email can't remember which one.
We responded quickly to your questions regarding wifi information. The wifi password was printed clearly on the back of the router.
We all really enjoyed our stay. The house was nice and the lake was beautiful. It was nice to have outdoor and indoor entertainment.
Thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the house, the lake, and all the indoor and outdoor entertainment. We’d love to host you again anytime!
Property was amazing, fully equipped! All you had to do was relax. Property management was very easily accessible and accommodating, will probably book an entire week next time.
The property was very clean and nice. It was nice having the fenced in back yard for our 2 dogs. We enjoyed feeding and watching the deer as well. Smith Lake is our favorite place to vacation.
Thank you for your kind review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the clean, comfortable space and that your dogs loved the fenced backyard. It’s wonderful that you got to enjoy the deer and that Smith Lake continues to be a favorite vacation spot. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
