Smith Mountain Lake is a vacation destination saturated with scenic views and opportunities for outdoor fun. This upscale vacation rental offers unsurpassed views of the mountains and lake while retaining its reputation as a property that hosts the largest private sand beach in the area.

You will be thrilled with the convenience of the deepwater, oversized private dock with two boat slips that await at this home. Updated decks and railings add an elegant touch to the home’s exterior and provide guests with a place to enjoy an open-air meal during their stay while soaking up the sunrise, sunset, or overall view.

Indoors, the upgrades at Sail Away continue with a space with fresh new carpets throughout the home, updated and stylish furniture, a pool table for friendly competition, and ample indoor seating options when socializing and lounging are both a priority.

The living room at Sail Away boasts vaulted ceilings, and sliding glass doors lead from the living room out to the deck where patio furniture waits. Just off the living room, the dining room hosts a table that can accommodate the whole group. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner can be cooked to taste in a kitchen that includes stainless steel appliances and a small central island with barstool seating.

The bedrooms in Sail Away come with plush mattresses, and each room includes a private balcony that overlooks the lake and mountains. The primary bedroom is equipped with a large TV and a spacious bath.

Outdoors, enjoy fine extras that include a large firepit when it’s time to roast marshmallows lakeside, as well as a hot tub if you prefer to sip something savory while dipped in bubbles. Enjoy great views of the lake and mountain both inside and outside of the home. This property comes with kayaks, paddleboards, and a canoe upon request.

This home was so much better than anticipated. Situated on a quiet side of the lake, our kids really enjoyed everything about the lake and the huge dock that we spent so much time on. The home is well laid out and plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen was wonderful and well stocked to cook pretty much everything. The title of the home is a little misleading about having the largest private beach on the lake, as the beach was not maintained at all and overgrown with weeds and grass, and the neighbors have a much larger & nicer beach. Otherwise a wonderful home and vacation spot!

We loved the lake views, large dock, quiet section of the lake inlet, comfy furniture and pretty, well appointed kitchen which contained everything we needed to cook and prepare meals.

We’ve rented twice through Vacasa and couldn’t be more pleased with our experiences. We have always received prompt and professional responses when we’ve had questions. The properties were just as described and we had a wonderful time with our family.

The sand beach entry not usable, significant mouse presence and we had to clean up the doorways besides the front door to avoid walking into big webs and bugs. We would love to rent this house again if these problems were solved.
