Smith Mountain Lake is a boater's and fisherman's paradise. There are 500 miles of shoreline on this 40 mile long, 20,000 acre lake. If you have your own boat, you can launch it at nearby Mitchell's Point Marina and dock it at the Cabin's dock. Boat rentals and wave runners are available at several lake locations.

The lake is stocked with bass, muskies, northern pike, and other small game fish.

Dog friendly! Dogs are allowed on the property and have a wonderful time at the lake. However, please do not leave them alone. Even though your dog may be comfortable alone at home, dogs are often frightened when left in a strange place and can cause substantial damage. Cats are not allowed.

Cozy and beautiful!

Really enjoyed our stay at this clean and well-appointed cabin with fantastic deck views of lake and fully stocked kitchen. Our only suggestion would be to replace the queen bed mattress as it doesn't sleep comfortably. Otherwise, a wonderful time!

Perfect weekend getaway

The cabin was very clean and comfortable. The hosts were very accommodating. The linen package was excellent. The bed in the queen room was a little too soft, but it was fine on the second night. The views were spectacular. The birds entertained us early in the morning, such a lovely quiet Cove! We will be back!

Gorgeous cabin views

Wow. Could not have picked a better place. The cabin was adorable, the balcony has some gorgeous views of the teal lake, and the cove was isolated perfection. Absolutely loved coffee on the balcony watching the birds and the boats roll through and then evening balcony dinners with a perfect sunset angle. I didnt realize this was on a nature preserve, which was a whole treat watching all the baby deer running around. Got a great shot of the fireworks over the lake. Will definitely return.

The stay here was wonderful. The scenery really beautiful. We did have some people near us though seem to think the lake was the restroom to put it a polite way; we had to go back up to the cabin after that ruined the rest of the afternoon. But our stay was overall really relaxing and enjoying.

Look no further for a peaceful, relaxing stay at the lake

My wife and I and our two dogs have been coming to this property almost every year for 6 years now. We wouldn't keep coming back if it wasn't WELL worth it. This time, we even brought our 3-month-old daughter for her first trip, and she had a blast as well. The property is clean, quiet, peaceful, comfortable, and contains everything you could need. The deck is perfectly spacious and situated for meals while looking at the beautiful lake, and the dock at the water is unbeatable as always. As usual, we can't wait to come back.

We loved everything about our stay. Cute cabin with beautiful lake views and access. My one and only “complaint” would be, the beds weren’t very comfortable but I would definitely stay again.

Great getaway

Nice little cabin for a Thanksgiving getaway. My brother and I did some fishing and caught a couple of large mouth bass. The only challenge of the entire weekend was managing the slightly smaller than normal (compared to today's standards) oven. I saw the pictures prior to packing but didn't pay enough attention. I'm hoping this review helps those in the future. I didn't interact with the hosts at all, their instructions were clear and I had no issues accessing the property or figuring out where things were. Great place and I'm glad I found the Fosters Cabin for the weekend

Wonderful peaceful place

Great cottage on a beautiful lake. Hosts were great to work with. Highly recommend. One caution. If you are coming after summer season and want to rent kayaks or other boats, the nearby marinas close rentals after Labor Day. We would have brought our own kayaks had we known.

Best sky view

Amazing neighborhood, best sky, where you can see a Milky Way. Everything was nice. I wish they provide towels. However, I didn’t got this from the pdf they shared, I called the host and she kindly resolve this misunderstanding and helped us. Great thanks to Foster Family for hosting us.

Relaxed seclusion

Cabin is located in a private community, Cedar Key Nature Preserve. Cabin was confortable and nicely appointed. All appliancescworked fine and the beda were comfortable. The only surprise was how steep the walk was to the lake. It may be fine for a younger person, but not safe for us at 70+ years, especially with no handrails. Otherwise, it is a good value for the price point. Also, separate your garbage. The collection/ drop off area has multiple bins for various recyclables. That will save you from rummaging through your icky trash like i did to pull out the recyclables.

Perfect fit

We were very comfortable and loved this rental! Boat trailer parking, ease in/out of condo, deck to chill and over look the water, kitchen & dining table all did not disappoint. The couches & seating were perfect for lounging around while watching tv. The deck was a great place for us as a family to just hang out overlooking the calm waters below. The dock was perfect for us to tie up our boat and go boating daily, no wake or co cern of boat getting damaged. We didn’t take advantage of the swim dock because we found some amazing coves on the lake. Area to allow our dogs to go to the bathroom. We loved that we could have our dogs on deck and access backyard through a gate to take our dogs out from the deck. All in all we will definitely rent here again and the communication with the owner was top notch, amazing response and service! Warning- when we booked through Vrbo, both owner and myself were contacted by a 3rd party claiming to be Vrbo and told both of us that the reservation had been cancelled and wanted to verify info. Beware of scammers - do not give info out over phone. I immediately hung up and reached out to the owner via messaging through the Vrbo app, the owner immediately called me and confirmed our reservation and we realized it was a scam.

Great getaway

Property was as advertised. Very neat and clean and comfortable. View of the lake was amazing. Cabin was very functional. Had trouble finding the eating utensils as they were across the kitchen in a china cabinet but we survived. Most difficult aspect was lake access down the steep hill behind the cabin. Our age made it difficult but was rewarding to swim in the beautiful lake.

Second visit to this nice cabin!

We stayed in this same cabin last year and when we saw an open week we happily grabbed it! The cabin was spotlessly clean upon arrival and ready for us to check-in. While mother nature did not cooperate at all with sunny lake weather, we enjoyed relaxing around the cabin, cooking dinners in the very well equipped kitchen and just being happy for the beautiful change of scenery. This year the hosts had done a very nice upgrade to the steps leading down to the lake/dock. This is a pet friendly cabin for which we are very thankful as we love to bring our two corgis. It was a nice getaway for a few days!
