Lakefront Home - Private Dock, Kayaks, Game Room, Fire Pit, Pet-Friendly
Welcome to Stillwater Retreat—your waterfront lakefront escape on a quiet cove at Smith Mountain Lake.
Designed for easy, laid-back lake days, this pet-friendly home offers direct water access, a private dock, and space to relax both inside and out. Whether you’re kayaking in the morning, spending the afternoon on the water, or unwinding by the fire pit in the evening, everything here is set up for a simple, memorable stay.
Outdoor living is a highlight: Enjoy a spacious deck with lake views, a private dock for swimming, fishing, or tying up your boat, and a custom-built lakeside fire pit area with Adirondack seating—perfect for s’mores and evenings under the stars. Guests also have access to 2 kayaks and a paddleboard to explore the quiet cove.
Inside, there’s room for everyone to unwind: The main level features a comfortable living area with lake views and a gas fireplace, along with a fully equipped kitchen and dining space. Downstairs, the game room includes a pool table, foosball, darts, board games, and a second TV lounge—ideal for families and groups to spread out.
Sleeping areas are designed for comfort, and a dedicated workspace in the master bedroom includes a desk, chair, and power/USB access for remote work.
Location makes it easy: Walk to a nearby gas station and Vinny’s Italian Restaurant, or take a short drive to Bridgewater Plaza for lakeside dining, shops, mini golf, arcade, and boat rentals. Grocery stores like Kroger and Food Lion are just minutes away.
Good to know before booking: - The driveway and path to the dock are steep (typical for lakefront homes). Steps have been improved with wider treads and a sturdy handrail on the main section. - The downstairs bathroom includes a smaller, cabin-style shower. - This is a classic lake home—clean, comfortable, and continuously improving (not ultra-modern).
Property notes: Two outdoor cameras are installed (driveway and lake-facing) for property monitoring and are not active during guest stays.
Dock & Water Safety Notice: This is a lakefront property with a private dock. Use of the dock, lake, swimming, boating, and any water activities is entirely at your own risk. Children and pets must be supervised at all times near the water. No diving from the dock. Guests assume full responsibility for their safety and the safety of all members of their party.

This place is so convenient to all of the great things! It’s right across the street from aloha art experiences. It’s a half mile from Bridgewater Plaza. It’s in a very quiet Cove. All of the rooms were spacious and we had all the fun kid amenities that we needed. We’ll definitely try to rent from them again.

Stillwater Retreat was the perfect getaway for our vacation. The rental is spacious and the view out to the lake stunning. Despite the drought this year, we still enjoyed the dock and outdoor seating. The downstairs game room was a favorite hangout and the kitchen had more than enough to cook. We can’t wait to book here again.

We had such a peaceful, relaxing visit at the lake. The property was perfect! We loved relaxing on the dock, even our pups. The 2 kayaks were great as well and we enjoyed kayaking around the peaceful cove. House was well stocked, super clean and cozy. All communication with Lydia was fast and helpful. We would definitely rent the same house again!

Quick Spring Break Get-away
The house was very clean and comfortable. We loved the game room downstairs! Location was convenient but i did have to drive (8 minutes) to the park to run and walk my dog. Even with that, i would definitely stay here again!!

Wonderful week visiting with family
This is our second summer staying at the Hakuna Matata house and we had a very enjoyable week. The property is as described with well stocked kitchen, BBQ grill and places to eat out on the deck. Swimming from the dock and kayaking in the quiet cove are very relaxing. Close to grocery and other shopping with easy access to the Bridgewater Plaza.

Exactly what we were looking for
We were here to do work on the lake for my husband's boating app. We need a house close to the Bridgewater Marina and where we could dock our boat for the week. House was located five minutes from the marina. It is on a main road but you don't notice the traffic when you're at the house. Beds were comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. We would stay here again if we get a chance to come back.

Nice stay despite bad weather
We had a nice time at the property, everything was clean and just as described in the listing. Kitchen is pretty well stacked as well. Weather was bad so unfortunately we were not able to use the fire pit on the deck, but it’s a really nice feature. One thing is that we could have used more towels, including kitchen towels.

Great home on the lake
Enjoyed a week on the lake. Spent lots of time swimming off the dock, and using the stand up paddle board and kayaks. Lydia was responsive when I reached out with some questions and accommodated our schedule when sending a plumber to install a new dishwasher. Kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, pots/pans, utensils. Location was great - enjoyed takeout from Vinny’s (across the street) and ice cream and mini golf just a short drive away.

Nicely equipped lake house. Watch out for the driveway and the steps to the lake. Both are steep. if you have a boat or rent a boat, load/unload fishing gear, coolers, etc that you plan to use on the boat at the Marina. Fishing in the cove is limited to small bluegill. Overall, good value for the money.

Just Married!
We had an amazing time on our honeymoon. The house was super clean & had more than we expected as far as fully equipped kitchen. Our 2 labs loved laying in the sun and were worn out everyday from swimming. It’s a perfect quiet cove to relax or fish. It may take a few days to recoup from going up and down all the steps. The only suggestions we have would be a little weed killer around the steps/pathway & some lighting on the dock. Even some small solar lights would make a big difference. This was a GREAT rental and we can’t wait to get back.
