Emerald Shores

Even better than pictures depicted. Lovely property. Most of our time was spent outdoors on boat dock or around fire pit. The hotel quality linens and towels were a nice touch. I would recommend.

Wonderful lake front home

We had an amazing stay at this lake home. The dock was perfect and the outside area in general is a great layout and really nice. Enjoyed the hot tub as well. The house was comfortable and so were beds. We had a great time and would stay here again!

Lovely Vacation Spot

House was lovely, in a quiet private neighborhood, off the main lake on a finger across from the state park made it a great spot to have quick access for boating but also calm for swimming and just lounging on the dock. A few minute drive to the state park for hiking one day. Thank you for sharing your lovely home.

Lake trip

This is our second year staying at the property. Beautiful home and the property fits our needs very well. The house was clean. Our only suggestion is the kitchen needs to be stocked better with the cooking essentials and have extra blankets for beds on hand. Other than that we look forward to our stay next year.

Clean but lacking in a few areas

House was clean plenty of room for 5 adults but not enough hot water might want to upgrade the hot water tank. Need to stock kitchen with a few more to be well stocked just need to add a griddle for pancakes and maybe a couple of pots and a new can opener we like to cook at home. Maybe add YouTube TV all in all would stay here again it’s a great place and location we had wonderful Christmas with our family and our family in Franklin county

Great Location!

We really enjoyed our stay - the outdoor space is perfectly laid out. During our stay, the weather was perfect and we spent most of our time enjoying the water, the sunshine on the dock and the great firepit area. The house is very clean and has all the necessary accommodations. We would love to stay here again!

Relaxing on Smith Mountain Lake

The property was well equipped and clean. The grounds were immaculate and inviting. Our only disappointment was that we only had 2 full days there. Will definitely plan to return, but next time for a week.

Awesome house, awesome vacation, incredible set up and customer service

Awesome house, awesome vacation, incredible set up and customer service. Kip and his team have outfitted this house perfectly, everything we needed for cooking any meal, enjoying the lake, fires at night, coffee in the morning, everything was there. Incredible attention to detail stocking the home with everything you need. The house is great for our family, three kids under 12 and mom and dad. The kids loved the lower floor den and Foosball. Can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay.
