Honestly we rely enjoyed it the view and back deck were awesome. It has some rustic things about it very comfortable. It had a very well built spiral staircase it may not be good for small children but again we really enjoyed our stay! Great place for your dogs that was nice. I would surely stay there again, thanks Lynn!

Great house, just as listed! Had all the things we needed to set our family up on the lake for the week. The home owner sent a bunch of helpful info about the area. Heed the warning and grocery shop before you come! We had a super relaxing week at the lake, and really enjoyed the back deck even in the rain!

The lake view was absolutely beautiful. It was so peaceful. The only thing was we didn’t have any dish rags in the kitchen but we managed. Other than that we loved our stay there.

Our stay was wonderful! The location was perfect and the view from the deck was beautiful! My only critique is that the railing on the deck was not safe for little children.

We had the pleasure of spending a weekend at the Lake Daze property in Crane Hill. The booking was easy and came with a guide book to ensure options for eating and local boat rental. The view from the top deck was beautiful. Easy walk to the dock. We enjoyed the fire-pit as well as the clean propane grill. Quick response when I had questions. We will definitely stay here again.

Great cabin!

Everything was great. The only thing the group agreed that would be beneficial is a ceiling fan on the beautiful deck. Thank you for a wonderful place for our ladies’ retreat.

Relaxing stay at the lake

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Coffee on the porch to start our days, and then relaxing by the firepit to cap it off. My kids loved playing on the dock and rocks along the shore. They could have spent a whole week down there. My one criticism is the lighting in the living room / kitchen is lacking. It seemed dark in there, even in the middle of the day with all the windows. Other than that, it was great!

We’re lake people now!!

This was our first time to vacation on a lake and Smith Lake did not disappoint! Crystal clear water, and relaxing, serene setting. The house was perfect! It had the integrity of an old fashion lake house with modern amenities. The owner was so accommodating! We will be back!!
