This lake house is lovely !! The veiw is amazing !! The area is soo nice . The house is so clean and very guest friendly .. Itâs an excellent place to stay . I only wish we could have stayed longer .
Enjoyed the gorgeous views, nice outdoor space, and appreciated the tidy, well stocked home. The owners were great with communication. Canât wait to return!
This place is amazing! So much larger than we imagined! We had 10 adults for breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the large table! The deck and view are amazing! The owners are super and we hope to return very soon!
Wonderful view and a peaceful, quiet place to rest and relax!
We absolutely loved this lake house and the stunning, million-dollar views! The neighborhood was peaceful and felt very safe. We especially enjoyed the pier and the water. This was our first time staying at Smith Lake, and we really loved the area. The house was exactly as described in the listing. Our kids had a blast, and the water was absolutely beautiful. The check-in and check-out process was super easy, and the host was terrific, with great communication. Thank you for sharing your homeâwe'll definitely keep this house on our list for future visits!
Our family had a great stay at this lake house. The view is gorgeous! We enjoyed the main porch, the screened-in porch, as well as, the boat dock. There was ample seating on each level. Unlike other vacation homes, this owner had everything in the kitchen that we needed to cook and eat with. They also had games to enjoy! We highly recommend âA Happy Place.â
We had a really great time. Very relaxing!!!!
Thought there would be more to do around the area.
The toilet was broken when we got there. They couldnât come and fix it until Tuesday. After they fixed it it still did not work.
Other then that is was a good trip!!!!!
Great property!! Close to grocery store but still great location on lake. Only problem at all and it wonât stop me from renting again, is the boat dock doesnât have an open slip so you have to tie off on one side which is fine unless it rains. But I would definitely recommend this property.
My family and I have rented a lakehouse on Smith lake for the past 3 years, but this was a new area of the lake for us. We loved that it was less than a 5 min drive to the local grocery store and DG. This property was also super clean! Everything from the inside all the way to the bin of boat dock accessories was all free of dust! The neighborhood was clean and safe.
We greatly enjoyed our stay. We had 10 adults. We enjoyed all eating around the large table and playing games. Plenty of room on the dock for us to all hangout comfortably. The view of the lake is spectacular. We were disappointed that the third shower/tub is not able to be used and the listing does not reflect that. We were able to make it work with two showers but a third would have been helpful. Overall, we had a great time and I would definitely stay here again.
This lake house is ideal for a peaceful getaway. The view is incredible and the layout is perfect for two families.
We had 4 adults and 2 almost grown children.
We felt like we were away from busyness of life but a grocery store is not that far away!
The kitchen had everything we needed for preparing our meals.
I could go on & on. We would definitely rent this property again. We didnât want to leave.
A Happy Place was just that for us - A (very) Happy Place to spend Labor Day weekend. The property accommodated our group of two families (four adults and 3 children) perfectly. The view of the lake is breathtaking, the dock is situated in a calm little cove that is perfect for swimming and exploring the adjacent rocks, and the kitchen and home were fully stocked with everything we needed. We were disappointed to see that the tub/shower in the third bathroom cannot be used, but we were able to fit in all showers, etc. in the other two bathrooms. Beds were comfortable and the property is nicely situated within 5 minutes of a grocery store, which is a huge plus! All in all, this was a fantastic first visit to Smith Lake. We would definitely recommend the property to others.
This property and Smith Lake did not disappoint. The listing photos and description is very accurate, the house was very well stocked with everything we needed, Rene was easy to get in touch with, and we cannot wait to return for a future visit! Our little boy (2.5 years old) didnât want to leave. We probably jumped off the dock and the rocks 500 times into that beautiful water! We rode many many miles on the lake in our boat and it really seems like the location and view of this property is REALLY top notch! Thanks for sharing your home and we canât wait to come again next year!
We had an amazing weekend! Rene was incredibly responsive, kind, and helpful when it came to our reservation and specific questions we had. The view from her cabin is amazing and the location is perfect- youâre out of all the busy traffic on the lake and can still enjoy tubing/skiing. Would most definitely stay here again!!
We enjoyed our stay at A Happy Place. Everything was fantastic. My favorite part--not many steps to water. Had plenty of room for everyone and the littles really enjoyed the yellow water mat. We rented a boat from Duncan Bridge Marina which made the holiday complete. Thank you for letting us use your lovely home.
Weâve spent many years visiting Smith Lake - our family loves it here. So after renting several properties over the years...this one checked many boxes for all 7 of us. Plenty of room and bathrooms. Not many stairs to the water. Open kitchen and den space for us all to hangout together. Loved the big kitchen table. Kids enjoyed the kayak and water toys provided by the owner. We really enjoyed all the seating on the dock. Spent a lot of time on the doc swing! So close to Duncan Bridge and Dunskin Point Marina. Kitchen well stocked. Plenty of towels, blankets and linens. Easy access to town. Owner is quick to respond to any questions. We are keeping this property on our favorites list.
