Perfect hidden gem for a truly relaxing vacation. Beautiful view, lovely private dock. Driveway was steep but we got used to it. Great location for those looking for a peaceful escape. Owner was great communicator!
The house was beautiful and spacious. Perfect for me and my friends to hang out and to spread out in when we wanted to. The driveway is steeeep (as warned by the owner). We had a little trouble getting a Prius back up to the road, but managed in the end. Great stay, would definitely go back!
My husband and our 2 sons and their wives stayed here for a weekend getaway. The home is so beautiful and the view was amazing. Cleanliness was immaculate. We truly enjoyed the rental. Driveway was quite steep but there is an option to park at the top of driveway. Megan, the owner, was always very quick to reply to any questions. Highly recommend this property!
This home was impeccable! We went on a last minute trip with our dogs. The property is spacious and very private, the home is well stocked with everything from cozy towels and quick lake reads to fully stocked kitchen (including spices and condiments that are so easy to forget). The deck has a beautiful deck overlooking the water and the stars were amazing. Our goal was to relax, so we didn’t venture off the property much and had a great time. It is very close to many restaurants and a little town if that’s you’re thing.
House was as advertised. Host was great and prompt communicator. Even went above and beyond in helping us making entering, staying, and even leaving a great experience. Highly recommend and the whole family had fun. Pac man arcade and plenty of table tennis tournaments.
We stayed at Megan's property to celebrate my mom's 50th and it was so much fun! She wanted a nice, relaxing weekend on the lake, and she got just that! The house was perfect for the 6 adults we had as well as fully equipped with really everything we needed! The kitchen was nicely stocked with almost everything, plenty of linens and towels. The check in and check out process was very easy, and Megan was fantastic to speak with anytime I had a question (which was not often). I know you all are thinking WOW those stairs, yes that was a workout coming up for sure and a little slipper when rain the came in I am not going to lie, but it was not a make it or break it for us. The only thing I would note is that if you are looking to enjoy evening rides on the boat or just hangout on the dock bring lights as no lighting is down those steps but overall, it was easy for us to bring our boat rental in and it's near a nice quiet cove. We were unable to swim from the dock due to some dredging maintenance work happening (no fault of the house at all) but it was quiet enough that we would've love to enjoy the kayaks and paddle boards that the house has down by the dock. The basement was so much fun I couldn't get my mom off the Pacman machine! Overall, it was a fantastic weekend, and the house was perfect and charming for a fun relaxing lake getaway! Thank you!
The house has a great layout and has everything you need for a great vacation. The kitchen was very well equipped, I found everything I needed to cook meals for a group. The owners also left beach towels and a cooler! Thanks for a great vacation!
We rented this property to get away from the daily grind. The home and location was amazing. House has everything needed to get away and relax. Owners are great to work with. Great experience.
Loved our stay, Megan was a great host! Really didn’t have time to rest, relax and enjoy some of the “extras” this location had to offer (Really wanted to play some Pac-Man, just didn’t have time).
Have to say, we all thought the beds were extremely comfortable and all got good night sleeps - would definitely stay here again, just next time it would be more laid back! Thanks Megan!!
My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Fox and Eagle Retreat for our Anniversary! The house is in a peaceful cove. Megan was very communicative and accessible! The house was just as described! We were comfortable and enjoyed all the amenities from ping pong to kayaking! This was a great spot to explore all Smith Mountain Lake has to offer!
The location is stunning, with a beautiful view of Smith Mountain Lake. The house is sprawling. There are literally three living rooms, one in each story -- this was great so we old timers could use one, while the younger members used another. We were all comfortable, all amenities were provided for, and the communication with the property manager was instantaneous. Yes, the driveway is somewhat steep, but we managed just fine. And yes, there are a lot of steps to descend to / ascend from the dock, as one can plainly see from the photos. It's a worthwhile trek. We had a wonderful stay, and would book this property again without hesitation. 5/5 all around.
This was an awesome house to stay at could use a touch up on paint steep drive way but we'll thought of for stuff in the the house will stay again maybe in May if things work out for us.
We enjoyed our stay. The house had everything you needed. Shampoo and soap, towels and sheets, and spices and napkins. The view was amazing, above the trees facing the sunset. The downside, if you have bad knees or a hard time walking up and down stairs, you will not be able to get to the water very easily. We rented a boat and were able to dock it right there. Overall, a great house on a very steep hill, but if planned correctly, you can enjoy the water.
We had a blast here! The house was updated and really nice and clean! The lake is great! We brought our jet boat so we were able to get in and out no problem. Everything about our stay was great! Super quiet and relaxing home and location! Tons of places to explore on the lake!
This was a great property to have family and friends visiting together. The upstairs was a roomy hang out area for one generation of folks. The main floor was large enough to have two groups of people visiting at the same time. The basement was a well situated area for playing cards and visiting. Hold your breath going down the driveway, but the view of the lake is worth it.

About the host
Hosted by Megan Cone
My husband, Eric, and I fell in love with Smith Mountain Lake a couple of years ago when visiting one weekend. Soon after, we bought a house and remodeled it to make it an open floor plan with more windows to enjoy the beautiful view! We loved it so much that we wanted to share it with other people and turned it into a vacation rental. We do not live in the area, but we still visit as often as we can to continue updating the house with high-tech gadgets and extras for our guests. Our four boys love hanging out there as well, even in the winter!
