Further details for this vacation house rental in Huddleston, Virginia

Our lakefront home, Lake Retreat at beautiful Smith Mountain Lake Virginia should be your choice for a great vacation! The approximate driving time to our vacation home is two hours from Greensboro, three hours from Raleigh Durham or Richmond, and four hours from Washington DC area. The central geographic location of our vacation home and the amount of sleeping accommodations make this home ideal for family and school reunions. We've had families meet from across the country and from overseas. The maximum occupancy is eight adults. Our home is equipped and can accommodate ten guests. If you have more than eight adults, call me at the number below to discuss alternatives, ask for Warren Theis. Please note the fourth bedroom is downstairs in the unfinished basement and is a combined recreation/bedroom with it's own full private bathroom and two queen size sleep sofas. As an active Mooney pilot, I welcome general aviation pilots.

You can enjoy the privacy, solitude and separation from others if desired or have a family ping-pong party. We have added central heat and air conditioning, a new wall-to-wall carpet, and a new large private dock for your comfort and pleasure. The old and the new docks provide ample docking space for your boats. The kitchen is very well equipped with all the appliances, cutlery and items you need to prepare gourmet meals for ten people. Amenities include a ping pong table, adult air hockey game, games, books, puzzles, television, wood stove, BBQ and large deck overlooking the lakefront. The natural sand beach, private docks, and ping pong table are perfect entertainment for your family and small children. You and your children can enjoy swimming in the cove and feel perfectly safe from boat traffic and waves. There is a sandbox near the natural sand beach for little children. For the fishermen, the citation stripers await your arrival.

Daily, multi-day rentals are available year around as are monthly rentals at special low rates. We especially welcome the BassMaster Tournament participants year round and particularly before June 30 and after Sept. 1, 2007. Convenience stores, grocery stores, amusement parks, boat rentals and shopping are located within a twenty minute drive. The Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia State Park and public Championship Golf course at Mariners Landing are minutes from Lake Retreat. The home is located on Craddock Creek between daymarkers C6 and C8. There is more to do at the lake than just water sports. Emerson Pottery Factory is a 30 minute drive; Three new Winerys with award winning wines are nearby, driving, motorcycling, or hiking the scenic Blue Ridge mountains is one hour away. Explore Park near Roanoke, and Thomas Jefferson's Poplar Forest residence near Lynchburg are less than a one-hour drive away. NASCAR's Martinsville race is just one hour away.

Golf: You can golf at the very nearby Robert Trent Jones championship golf course. There many other public and private golf courses such as Westlake, Sycamore Ridge, Waters Edge and Waterfront golf courses less than a half hour away. Booker T Washington's and Jubal Early's childhood homes are but a short drive away. Charlottesville (Monticello, University of Virginia), and Blacksburg Virginia (Virginia Tech football games) are just two hours away. Ferrum University is one hour away. As an active Mooney pilot, I welcome general aviation pilots or small groups for fly-ins. I can provide ground transportation from Smith Mountain Lake airport (W91) with notice. W91 has a 3,000-foot paved runway.

Our family vacation

D M T Courtland, VA
Review Submitted: August 4, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We had a wonderful vacation. The grand kids loved the lake and it was perfect for young children. We had a fantastic week everyone had a great time. The only complaint we had was the sofa beds in the basement. They were not comfortable. But everything else was great. The other bedrooms were very nice. We would certainly stay here again.
Owner's Response: We plan to replace the sofa bed with another bed at the end of this rental season.

Smith Mountain Lake Rental Review

Review Submitted: June 18, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
The location was awesome and was great for the kids to swim and play in the water without worrying about boat traffic. The two docks with covered boat slip worked out nicely for our pontoon boat and fishing off the dock was fun for the kids. The house itself was a decent three bedroom house but could use some updates like functional lighting at the dock and updated furniture and kitchen appliances. Be sure to check with the owner on the condition of the fourth bedroom as it is really an unfinished basement with block walls and a concrete pad floor with a couple of old sleeper sofas. We had to alter our plans to have friends from Roanoke stay over until we saw the basement. It was musty and damp and we did not consider it a suitable sleeping area as we have family members and friends with allergies and asthma. In our opinion, this house should be listed as a three bedroom that sleeps 6; 4 adults and 2 children; with an optional fourth sleeping area as opposed to a four bedroom that sleeps 8.

Smith Mountain Lake Retreat

Lake Lovers Jonesborough TN
Review Submitted: June 17, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
My family and I have rented this house several times in the past 8 years and we enjoy the location. The location is just minutes to the SML Dam by boat and a very short drive to the D-Day Memorial, grocery store and many other places for sightseers. It's quiet, nice neighbors, and has a nice play area with a sand box for small children between the docks. The new dock is awesome. The house is very comfortable, has a great deck and the kids love the ping-pong and air hockey tables. It offers many amenities that makes the stay comfortable also.

Peace & Quiet

ZP Cape May, NJ, USA
Review Submitted: May 13, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
My family and I stayed at this home in May for my college graduation which was in Lynchburg. It was a very refreshing trip for my parents and grandparents; they really enjoyed the peace and quiet. I myself enjoyed the "vacation" as well although I have to admit I was a little too afraid and sketched out to sleep on the sofa bed in the basement. If only it was in the living room! I'm just afraid of spiders. But the other rooms were nice and it was really convenient to have the 2.5 bathrooms. My dad and my husband really enjoyed fishing at the lake and the rest of us really enjoyed the view. We also visited a winery nearby (would have visited more but ran out of time). We would definitely want to visit this area again.

It was clean, the description was accurate (although it says there's a lot of new stuff but most of the house seemed kind of outdated). The owner was very nice to work with and I would surely recommend this property to a friend. There is also a restaurant in the community that had very yummy food.
Owner's Response: We used to keep a sleep sofa in the living room. Should we move it back?? There is no need to worry about spiders, we have a pest control company spray the home, inside and out, every month year around. There are many good restaurants, my favorite is Chopsticks at Halesford Bridge and Vieras. Also, the nearest winery about 5 miles distance, Hickory Hill, has won awards for their wines. All types of water sports/activities occur most of the year. We have the best rental prices at the lake because my wife and I live nearby our vacation rental home and accomplish all the work both managing and maintenance. We take pride in our vacation home and our goal to please our customers. If you return in the future, you get a "happy returning customer" 5% discount on the base rent.

WISH WE COULD HAVE STAYED LONGER

lkh middletown, de, usa
Review Submitted: May 12, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
7 of us ventured to Virginia for our daughters gradutation at Liberty University. We found house to be more than charming, like a step back in time. 3 of us are 'baby boomers' so the decor reminded us of family vacations when we were young. No cable needed here at all. There is so much to do and explore down there, we wish we had had time to do it. we are seriously thinking about returning to take advantage of the fishing, boating, hiking, wine tasting tours and many other activites the area has to offer.
fanatic place to enjoy some quality family time together!!!!! also great for a girls or guys get away!!
Owner's Response: We appreciate your unique comments, thank you. My wife and I do all of the rental management and maintenance and take pride in having a clean vacation home for our customers. Come enjoy our vacation home anytime and enjoy a 5% discount on the current rent for returning customers as described on my website.
