This property is outstanding. The views of the lake are amazing and itâs just steps away from the water. Thereâs ample outdoor and indoor space with comfortable furnishings and the kitchen is large and well provisioned. On top of all that the hosts are lovelyâthey reached out with recommendations right when we booked and were quick to answer all of our questions. I will definitely be back!
Perfect house for time on the lake. Beautiful view from the deck. Kayaks were fun to play on the water. Fire pit is huge and will accommodate a large group sitting around the fire at night. We canât wait to get back. House has lots of space. I highly recommend this house.
Our family had a great stay at Summer Lane for Spring Break. The house was clean and well appointed. The kids loved having the downstairs area for themselves. The hot tub was great on the cool evenings and the fire pit area was used for sâmores. We saw some bass from the dock but only managed to catch one. Highly recommend this property.
Our 2 daughters and their kids met up at the house to celebrate my husband's 70th BD. We live in 3 different states, so meet in the middle. We hiked, kayaked, went horseback riding, made smores and relaxed in the hot tub. It was a great fall weekend!
We had an amazing time at Summer Lane! The house is so comfortable and well appointed, the lake is absolutely beautiful and the house has kayaks, life jackets and a lily pad to enjoy on the water. We rented a pontoon boat from Pete at SML Premiere Boats and it was delivered to us as we were checking in. The lake seems intimidatingly large at first but we quickly found our favorite spots like Los Amigos restaurant at Crazy Horse Marina and Mitchellâs Marina for great lunch and ice cream. Weâve already booked for next yearâs family gathering with my VA based family! Thank you Nancy and Charles for your amazing hospitality!
The location was fantastic, the no hill short yard leading to the dock with no trees blocking the view, and the inside was very inviting equipped with everything we needed. Will remember this home and trip and hope to stay again in the future. Thanks for a great stay
Our family of 8 enjoyed everything about this property! Good cove for swimming and kayak and paddle board. Easy to dock our rental pontoon. Fully stocked kitchen. Extremely clean house and everything well maintained. There is not one thing I can say that isnât positive about Summer Lane.
This is our second time staying at this wonderful home for the New Year holiday. The kitchen has everything a cook would need! The home is comfortable and an easy walk down to the lake. We have a fantastic time ringing in the new year at this home w our family.
We had such a wonderful vacation at Smith Mountain Lake. This house was absolutely perfect for our group of 10. Everyone had a bed/room, the kitchen, dining and living areas were a great size. The kitchen was well stocked for us to be able to cook dinner each night. And the pictures just don't do the outdoor space justice! The deck, hot tub, firepit and dock were incredible. We took the kayaks out, ate smores, played in the yard, enjoyed the cool fall mornings in the hot tub. Nancy was sweet and responsive the one time we needed her. We already want to come back!
We had a great time at your property. The home was clean and very well stocked. We loved the layout of the house. It was perfect for the adults upstairs and the kids having the basement. The outdoor space was great with tons of seating. The kids really enjoyed the kayaks and floats. Docking our boat was easy and it was great being in a no wake zone. Weather wasnât great 1 day but having lots of games, air hockey, and foosball kept the kids busy during the rain. Thank you for allowing us to stay and we look forward to returning soon.
We had a wonderful time at this home. The kitchen is fantastic and has everything you need for cooking. Views of the lake are incredible. Would definitely stay here again.
My family spent 3 nights during Christmas and it was perfect, everything that is stated in the description was available. The view of the lake was nice and serene and the area is very peaceful.
This home offered a perfect setting to enjoy the quiet fall over the Thanksgiving week. The home was spacious for our multi-family gathering. The kitchen beautiful and roomy. The eating space was plentiful for meals and games. Football and hockey on the big screen. Kayaking on the lake on a sunny fall afternoon was unforgettable. A fire pit made for evening chatting and smores. The whole package is unmatchable. Enjoy!
Our group of eight enjoyed our second trip to Summer Lane. Beautiful views, luxurious accommodations, very well-stocked house! Weâll stay here again!
House is well located on a cove of the lake. Deck overlooks the water and makes for a beautiful sunrise and sunset. Everything was as described on line and the house was well equipped. We had a great time and enjoyed our stay.
Seamless trip. Good spot on the lake. Weather was less than ideal but when it wasnât raining the dock and boating was great. House had everything we needed and then some.
Our family has been vacationing at SML for years. One of the nicest homes weâve ever stayed at! Summer Lane is the perfect getaway! Nancy and Charles have done a great job sharing their home. Exactly as described. Week went way too fast. We canât wait to return.
Wonderful property for extended family! We brought a boat and appreciated the proximity to several marinas. The boat house had kayaks, SUPs, life jackets and a small fridge. We loved the fire pit and hot tub. Layout was perfect for kids and adults of all ages. There were many extras available (from dish detergent to hand soaps, laundry soap, etc) and the kitchen had everything we needed to make most meals at home.
Communication with Nancy and Charles couldn't have been better. We would definitely stay here again!
Thanks again!
This was definitely one of our most favorite homes! The owners were incredible and took care to provide for the comfort of their guests. We cooked almost every meal and the kitchen had everything we needed and more. There was plenty of room for children and grandchildren who came to celebrate Motherâs 99th birthday. A gentle walk to the boat allowed her to take many boat rides and lots of outdoor space to enjoy the weather and beautiful view of the lake. We will definitely be back!
This is a stunning home! The view of the lake are beautiful and the outdoor area is set up for almost any activity you would like to do. My four year old got to have his first sâmore at the fire pit, catch fireflies, and learned to fish off of the dock. Nancy and Charles were attentive and thoughtful hosts. The inside of the house was beautiful, clean, and provided everything you can think of- we didnât have to unpack our usual vacation Rubbermaid full of kitchen supplies. My family and I had a relaxing weekend and hope to visit again.
Very nice home with excellent lake view and access
We enjoyed our stay! Beautiful lake view and lots of places to sit and view lake! House is well appointed- comfy beds, big kitchen and dining for sure! Fire pit was great! Wood was provided (we brought some 3 hour logs which made fires even better !). Be sure to bring coffee, creamer, sweetener, paper towels, beach towels, bath soap and shampoos etc - some vrbos provide this this location does not. My only small complaint is lack of bath towels and toilet paper. It was only 3 of us but we had to use bath towels from other bathrooms. Overall an excellent experience! Nancy was always quick to respond to questions etc!
