Beautiful view with boating access

Needed an affordable place for a bass tourney on SML with docking access for the boat. I wasn't expecting this great of a place; but was pleasantly surprised especially the spectacular views of the mountains with the lake in the foreground. Interior was furnished with comfortable furniture.

Beautiful

I loved it here. It was clean, they ensured everything a visitor needed was there, and we didn’t leave the room much; one trip to the store for eggs. I love to cook, so the huge cutting board was a highlight for me. I can’t wait to return during the warmer seasons.

Quiet and scerene

Very nice facility, quiet neighborhood. The morning sun rise was spectacular. The condo was very well equiped and comfortable. I would recommend that any future visitors to this unit bring a pair of sturdy shower shoes. For the stone floor is hard on the feet. You'll thank me for it.

Great place to stay

We really enjoyed the place. Very clean, great location, and comfortable. Everything a family needs to enjoy their time at SML. I wish I had time to play pickleball but next time. Host was very realiable and check in was very easy. The place is easy to find and parking was no problem. Will have to book again in the summer to take advantage of other ammenities.

A bit of a snafoo at check in with our personal kayak but all was well and handled quick and professionally by our host. The apartment itself was clean and comfortable. We don’t want for anything as the kitchen is stocked and towels and tolietries were provided. Can’t beat the view !

Perfect!

The condo was exactly as advertised, and had some pleasant surprises; for example, the bed was so comfortable that I tried to see what kind of mattress it was so I could buy one for myself. Our sleep was actual bliss, just like the listing says! Balcony was much larger than expected, with seating for 6. Kitchen, bathroom, living room all perfect for our needs and lacked nothing. We loved having a keycode for the electronic lock - no extra key to have to carry around. Parking was directly in front of our door, we had a great view of the lake, and the surroundings were quiet and peaceful. We were at Bernard's Landing for my niece's wedding, and the venue (the clubhouse) was outstanding. Rehearsal dinner was at Napoli By The Lake, also wonderful. Basically everything was excellent and I spent all 4 days wishing we owned a condo here so we could spend more time at this beautiful place. We would absolutely stay here again, and would rent this specific condo again without hesitation. 10 out of 10, highly recommend :)

Smaller than it looks

It was quite cramped inside - the picture angles make it look bigger than it is - and communication was not great, but otherwise fine.

Relaxing on SML

Trailered our boat from PA for a weekend getaway. The location was beautiful and so was the condo. Dinner at Napolis a short walk away, was delicious. Easy boat ramp access and slip. We’ll be back

About the host

Hosted by Chris DeBusk

Host profile image
I grew up on the weekends and summers at SML and am just totally in love with the lake. Getaway time is a special thing and we strive to do everything possible to make your experience awesome.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this condo turnkey, however I redecorated it with a modern feel by replacing the furniture and artwork. I additionally added quite a bit to the kitchen for guests such as a wine fridge and Keurig. Think new and modern! Well, the view speaks for itself and the porch is outfitted for hanging out or dining. Lastly, the technology has been completely replaced from the TVs to the thermostat. Netflix streaming is available on both large flat panel TVs. The latest and greatest tech!
