Smith Lake Vacation Rental

Lake house located in a quiet slew on Lewis Smith Lake (Smith Lake) in Jasper, AL 5 minutes from Duncan Bridge and Arley, AL.

Come stay for a vacation home getaway with all the comforts of home plus fishing, grilling with family or friends, and playing in the sun! Large deck for the views and relaxing. Includes pier/ boat dock. 2BD 2BA - 1 King and 1 queen bed. Living room includes big screen tv with video streaming apps. Home offers all standard appliances including washer and dryer.

Lower boat traffic through the Smith Lake channel tunnel to the property adds for a safer swimming area than the main body of the lake. Property is located 1 or 2 minutes from Duncan Bridge Marina by vehicle or about 5 to 10 by water. Evan’s Marina is located in the same slew as this property. Check with Duncan, Squirrels, and Evan’s Marina for pontoon boat rentals and boat launch.

Great cellphone service for AT&T and Verizon. Has WIFI high speed internet.

Most boats and all personal watercraft fit through the Smith Lake tunnel for Curry Hwy however, we would suggest not booking and asking first if you have a boat with a tall non foldable rack. There is year round deep (approximately 30 ft) water in the slew. The tunnel itself has markers on the side placed by water patrol to let you know the depth. Happy to answer any questions and give tips for those that worry. We have been going through in our Glastron ski boat, pontoon boat, and Chris Craft ski boat for years.

Charming Cottage

The cottage was nicely decorated, comfortable sofas and bed, nice shower. You can tell the host tried to think of everything to make your stay enjoyable. I love the screened porch. Outdoors was very steep on all sides (Driveway, front walkway and decent down to the lake in the back.

Quick Weekend Getaway

It was a great and relaxing weekend. We needed some downtime and this location had that. We spent just about the whole weekend on the screened porch enjoying the view of the water. We look forward to our next visit!

Beautiful Lake House

The home was clean and had everything we needed. My family enjoyed fishing on the pier. Parking on the steep slope was scary at first, but got better after the initial shock. We really enjoyed this house.

Cottage

We really enjoyed the historic sites in Jasper, and was close enough to enjoy Cullman. The home was a cozy two bedroom cottage. The only thing was missing was a table we could eat together and play games. I would suggest getting a card table with 4 chairs which can be folded up for space. We had a good time and enjoyed exploring the area.

Beautiful long weekend

The owners were very accommodating and responded quickly to our questions. We have a wedding in Jasper and it was 10 times better than renting. the hotel. The back patio had a beautiful view of the lake. Thank you

Great place!

Only issue was driveway, not very easy for my car. But, it was a BMW 330i that has been lowered, so it should be fine for any car that's not too low to the ground. We were fine parking across the street though. Overall was very nice and super quiet!

Good location/beautiful Lake

The location is good, lake is beautiful. The house could have been a little cleaner. The full bed needs replaced , 2 people end up like a taco. Also for anyone bringing reactive dogs beware there is a very sweet but annoying dog that lives next door that roams around unleashed. That said it is the perfect location, the lake is beautiful and quiet. The screen in porch was wonderful.

Nice property for short getaway

The house was a perfect spot for our short family weekend getaway. The kitchen came equipped with everything we needed. The screened-in porch was great during those rainy afternoon showers. We brought a blow up mattress for our fifth person and there was plenty of room for it in the living room (we brought our own blankets and sheets for this). Hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had. The towels were a little mildew smelling but nothing a little white vinegar couldn’t fix. Great time and hope to come back again!

Nice house on the lake

The house on the lake was as described. It was very comfortable and nicely decorated. It had everything needed for a long weekend getaway. Cons: Although not the owner's fault: The driveway and property are on a very steep incline. On our vehicle we have a camera that gives us a front view also I am glad we had that pulling in a few times because of the angle it was hard to judge where you were at. We brought our dogs (we were there for a dog show) and it was very difficult to take them out sometimes to go potty because there were two "neighborhood" large dogs that kept coming over and barking at them. I was afraid they would fight so I would take mine back inside and wait until no sight of the "neighborhood" dogs. But other than that, my 2 boys wore themselves out swimming in the lake.

Checking it out

The house was very clean and well put together. The driveway is especially steep. Its a semicircle driveway which makes it easier to navigate the parking, but note... if you are towing a boat or trailer, there's room in the driveway to park, but getting out is a little scary depending on your driving skills and type of vehicle. Best if you have a 4 wheel drive vehicle. We do not. If we had it to do over, we'd park the boat on the gravel at the top of the property.

Great place - quiet and clean and on the water

The house was extremely clean and had plenty of outdoor seating. Beds were very nice and comfortable. We especially enjoyed the newly screened-in back porch that looked out on the water. This house was older than I assumed but it was not misrepresented by the owner on VRBO. Check-in was easy and the owner e-mailed back promptly with all answers to my questions. We mostly enjoyed the outdoor seating and the pier. Be sure to ride to downtown Jasper and check out the restaurants. We enjoyed our experiences at Johnny Brusco's Italian restaurant and Lavish Coffee Bar. We enjoyed The Picnic Basket - great wraps and sandwiches. We also enjoyed shopping at an upscale boutique called The Very Idea. The owner was very accomodating and kind. Jasper is a great place to spend a few days "away from it all".

Nice waterfront house on quiet part of lake

Enjoyed our stay at this Smith Lake property. It was a good size for our family of 4 and the listing description was very accurate and helpful. The house is on a slough section of the lake, separated from the main lake body by Curry Hwy. with tunnel access to the lake, so this made for safe swimming off the swim platform and no boat traffic at all times of the day. We rented a pontoon boat and it was easy to navigate the boat through the tunnel under the highway if you have any boating experience at all. The house was well furnished - towels, hotel-style toiletries, dishes, tv’s in every room, both a gas grill and a charcoal grill. The screened-in back porch is really nice a a great place to start each morning. There is a local grocery store about 4 miles away and very convenient.

We loved it!

I’m going to start by saying, this is the best smelling rental I have ever stayed in. We rented for spring break and it turned out to be quite cold. We were unable to do most of the things we had planned on doing. It was so quite and peaceful, we didn’t even mind. Bed was comfy. Kitchen was stocked with all we needed to cook. Grills were available. The property looks different outside than in the photos. The owners are upgrading things outside. I will say, this rental would not be great for someone with mobility issues. Smith Lake in general is probably that way.
