About this property

BEAUTIFUL Lake House: large beach. LOTS of amenities, kayaks, paddle boards, etc

Welcome!

If you want space, comfort, easy lake access with your own private beach, and diverse entertainment/activity amenities - look no further than OUTER BANKS @ Smith Mountain Lake!

This modern, four-bedroom home balances luxury with fun and leisure for the whole family. It is a beautiful setting for a secluded family vacation. You'll be hard pressed to find anything that matches what this property has to offer.

Most exclusively, you'll have your own large PRIVATE BEACH with beach chairs and umbrella. You'll have your own PRIVATE DOCK with sitting table, as well as a separate lounge area where you can enjoy a secluded cove that looks directly onto the open lake. This means you get a specular view without any public water-craft traffic nearby. Use of the dock for personal watercraft is available upon request.

The home offers a huge, open and very WELL-EQUIPPED KITCHEN with upgraded appliances, including a separate ICE MACHINE. There are spices and a variety of oils; everything you need for cooking meals. We have pots and pans, a crock pot and an insta pot, and a large stock pot. For coffee lovers, there is a Keurig and French Press, as well as a conventional coffee maker. We do supply coffee, however, feel free to bring your favorite blend!

We also supply all your paper products; Paper Towels, Toilet Paper, Napkins, Kleenex, Trash Bags, Dishwasher detergent, Laundry detergent; all are reasonably supplied for you convenience!

The kitchen opens to an adjoining SPACIOUS LIVING AREA that looks directly onto the cove/lake, and is a wonderful place to relax in and of itself. It also offers an excellent indoor gathering spot for family games, music sing-alongs, or quiet reading. Of the four bedrooms, one is on the main first level, and three are located on the lower level. The two king bedrooms are very large and spacious with plenty of room for a playpen and not feel cramped, while the remaining two bedrooms offer plenty of space as well.

Outdoor amenities and fun include:
Kayaks,
Paddle Boards,
Bikes (including a Tandem bike!),
Pedal Boat,
Gas & Wood-burning Fire Pits (2x Gas, 1x Wood).

Outdoor games include:
Cornhole,
Ladder Ball,
Bocce Ball,
and Tether Ball.

Indoor amenities include:
1Gb WiFi,
Full size Billiards Table,
Ping Pong Table,
Foosball Table,
Poker Table with Chip Set,
Over 40 Different Board Games,
Blu-ray DVD player w/ 55" 4k TV (Library of Family Friendly Videos),
Karaoke Machine with BT connectivity (so you can sing to any song "Google" can find).

With all these amenities and opportunity for activity, you may want to take advantage of our more RELAXING AMENITIES as well. Many enjoy a cup of coffee or glass of wine, while sitting on the upper deck with the GAS FIRE PIT providing warmth and ambiance. After a day on the lake, some enjoy soaking in the six-person HOT TUB located on the lower patio. Of course, the beach would not be complete without a true WOOD-BURNING FIRE PIT where guests can gaze at the star-filled sky, and tell fun stories while cooking up S'mores. Many report it makes for a perfect evening.

The best part is, all of these amenities are INCLUDED IN THE RENTAL - NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE!

BONUS: Free linens & INDOOR TOWEL. (MUST bring your own towel for any outdoor like hot tub, beach, lake, etc.)


In addition to all the amenities listed at the property, for those who want to venture out, within 10 minute’s drive there is Smith Mountain Lake State Park, a Public Boat Ramp, Boat Rental, Golf, Tennis, and more.

First class host and home!

I set out searching for a home with easy access to the water as I was bringing my parents who both have health issues. The hosts were beyond helpful ensuring we had everything we needed. The home and property were absolutely beautiful. I will forever be grateful for the memories made during our stay!

4th time was just as magical and meaningful for our family and an extended family member as were the first 3 visits! Tim and Michelle were fantastic hosts as always, and they were super flexible and accommodating and gracious as plans changed. Can’t wait to go back next year to have that time to relax and recharge at OBX@SML. Thank you again to Tim and Michelle for sharing your amazing property with us!

Awesome stay at OBX @ SML!

Awesome stay!! Such a beautiful home and wonderful hosts! Like many other reviewers have mentioned, this home has everything you could need. We absolutely loved the beach area, kayaks, paddle boards. I brought my own floats, paddles, etc and many other items that weren’t necessary at all, because they truly had everything! Tim and Michelle were very responsive hosts and were so kind with early and late check-in which was so appreciated with having three young grandchildren. Can’t wait for our next trip there! Thank you!

Among the best on SML

The house matches all the previous reviews for sure, with every appliance, gadget, toy, dish, and convenience at your fingertips. Every room has plenty of space for large family gatherings and the hosts are incredibly responsive and kind. My family has been renting on the lake for a decade and this is among the very best we've seen.
