Secluded Waterfront Get Away on Smith Mountain Lake

Nestled in woods of Cedar Key on Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia, enjoy a tranquil escape with nature. No wake cove excludes heavy boat traffic and noisy jet skies and provides a relaxing time and safe opportunities for water activities such as swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding, somewhat rare on the lake. New floating dock provides some further privacy.

Nestled in the valley of the Blue Ridge Mountains of rural southern Virginia, this is the perfect destination whether you are looking for some "downtime" or fun outdoor activities. The one mile tree-lined drive from the entrance starts your relaxing journey. After arriving, relax on the deck and enjoy the splendid views of lake and undeveloped mountains then head for the water.

This smoke free two-bedroom/one-bath vacation rental is situated on the shores of beautiful Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia. It features comfortable accommodations and stunning wide-water and mountain views! Perfect for a family getaway, Cedar Key Cabin includes one queen-size bed, two twins, one full bathroom with shower/tub, a TV, DVD, DirectTV, internet access, central heating and air-conditioning, open beams, and hardwood floors. The home sleeps 4 persons comfortably. The great room looks out on beautiful lake views and has access to the large deck. The views are of undeveloped wooded mountains and lake. There's a deck with a charcoal grill and patio furniture. New -- now with private floating dock which is great for swimming and boating. Smith Mountain Lake is Virginia's most popular lake, Smith Mountain Lake, is a boater's and fisherman's paradise. It is Virginia's most popular lake and boasts 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 boat launch at Mitchell's Point Marina and dock it at the Cabin's dock. Boat rentals and wave runners are available at several lake locations. For the fisherman, we are located on Witcher Creek where the stripers spawn. The lake is stocked with bass, muskies, northern pike, and other small game fish. For those enjoying water activities, the no wake cove is perfect for kayaking, canoeing and paddle boarding. Just a short distance from the main channel, enjoy boating, water skiing, jet skiing, wake boarding, parasailing and sailing.

Plan a picnic and enjoy the many miles of walking and hiking trails available. Golf is available at nearby Mariners Landing and 2 other courses.

Peaceful
Nice, quiet cove with limited boat traffic in a no wake zone which is great for kayaks, paddle board, or when tying up a boat. The cabin is comfortable with exclusive access to a floating dock. There is a parking area to park a truck and trailer, though it’s not directly in front of the house. Overall a comfy cabin in a quiet part of the lake.

Fantastic lake cabin
This property was exactly what we were looking for. We enjoyed our stay immensely. It fit our family of 4 very nicely. The view from the cabin was beautiful. If you have a boat, there is a dock you can tie up to. I will say the stairs to the dock are very steep and may be challenging for older guests, but they did not bother us. The owner was responsive and easy to work with.

Secluded and quiet
Excellent place to get away from it all. Very secluded feeling and quiet. The water and mountain view is gorgeous. Cabin is cute. Beds were comfy. I likes that there is an Italian Restaurant/pub, gas station and white house market within 10 minutes. Grocery store 25 minutes away.

Great get-away!
The cabin was clean and cozy and well-set on the hillside overlooking the lake. The lake view and bird songs and deer sightings were the perfect recipe for resetting our focus on what’s important! Next time we’ll rent a boat and make better use of the available dock and water access! Definitely hope to return!

Never stayed were you had to provide your own sheets towels washcloths that was ridiculous. We did not receive the information until we arrived at the cabin but I have to say the owner did step up and provide us access to where sheets and towels were.

Great week on the lake
Everything about the property and location was great. We spent the week kayaking and since it was after labor day most of the motorboat traffic was over for the season. The cabin was clean and well appointed. Only minor downside to the property was the trash situation. Having a solution closer to the cabin would be preferable.

Beautiful location on Smith Mountain Lake. Cabin clean. Susan our host communicated what items we needed prior to out check in date. We brought our paddle board and spent our weekend enjoying the water. Cabin is dog friendly. Floating dock made it easy get paddle board in and out. Quiet and relaxing getaway. Definitely want to return.

Nice cabin. View was wonderful. Could use some updating new blinds etc but overall fine. Only real complaint was that blankets smelled strongly of dryer sheets and I’m really sensitive to that. They need to be aired out and little less next wash.

Perfect weekend reset
We had the best time at this cabin. The view was to die for. The cabin is on a quiet cove which is perfect for swimming and fishing. The walk down to the water is very well maintained and has steps leading to it. There’s a pier to tie your boat up at if you’re bringing one. Only recommendation if you’re bringing a boat is to bring some bumpers since you can only tie up on one side. Easy drop in at Mitchell’s Marina. The house itself was the perfect size. We enjoyed cooking dinner and chatting with family since the kitchen and family room are in the same space. We also enjoyed eating on the deck since the weather was so nice. I cannot recommend this place enough. The simplest stays are the best stays. The host was also very responsive and informative.

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It’s perfect for a small family. Very clean home, quiet neighborhood. Almost feels like a gated community neighborhood. Fully stocked kitchen (there were a few things we forgot to bring and they had it there which was so convenient). Many hours were spent on the deck, loved that it has an umbrella for shade, spacious and lovely views. Enjoyed the boat dock. Only issue was that the power at the boat dock was not working. We reached out via email because we didn’t feel it an emergency to use the emergency contact line but we never got a response.we had to unfortunately carry a heavy battery upstairs to charge the boat battery. We will be buying a portable one for now on. We wouldn’t come back ONLY because the location didn’t suite our needs, a little too far from places. And I’ll never book a place without a washer and dryer again. (Learned a lesson there). However if you’re wanting peace, quiet, seclusion and awesome neighbors, this is the place for you!!
