Top Smith Mountain Lake Hotel Reviews

Romantic SML Penthouse, Bernard’s Landing. Smith Mountain Lake 3 Pools

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I have been roving around for a few weeks, and we booked Roger's condo last-minute to have a place to stay and celebrate my birthday. The property is really beautiful, we woke up each morning to a view of the mountains reflecting in the lake. Our visit was mid-October and it was very quiet. There was nothing we lacked, and the instructions provided were clear and more than reasonable.Roger had left a copy of the menu from Napoli On the Lake, a local restaurant, on the coffee table, and it looked really good and a perfect spot to have a birthday dinner. I had no idea where it was but assumed a 30- to 40-minute drive. Nope! You can see it from the deck, a two-minute walk. The food and drinks there are outstanding, I can recommend the Chilean Sea Bass and the Bourbon Glazed Salmon, both perfectly prepared.Roger, thanks, it was exactly what we were looking for. It's a great property."

"This condo was exceptionally clean and the kitchen was well stocked with cookware and dishes. The view was my favorite part of our stay… so calm and relaxing even though the weather didn’t cooperate until our day of departure. The host was very responsive answering questions and even provided a list of dining suggestions. Would definitely return just wish it was pet-friendly."

10/10 Excellent

"Our daughter attends Liberty University, so we picked her up and then spent a long weekend here. Great alternative to the busy parent weekend on campus. Beautiful view and hiking close by or you can just enjoy time lakeside. The property has everything you could possibly want. The kitchen is extremely well stocked as well as all the little extras you could need throughout the condo. Plenty of blankets, towels, and even shampoos and body wash. These hosts have thought of everything. Beds were comfortable and decor is very welcoming. We enjoyed the beautiful view of Lake morning and evening from the patio. The community amenities were great. We enjoyed basketball, pickleball, hot tub and the pool. The host was extremely responsive regarding any questions we had. I highly recommend and hope we can come back soon!"
