Both the home and the surrounding property were perfect for our winter getaway. We made s’mores in the fire pit, and the kids loved walking along the dock and shoreline, looking at the water. Inside was VERY clean, cozy and welcoming. We enjoyed the fireplace, closet full of games and cozy blankets for watching Christmas movies. They had it completely decorated inside and out for Christmas, which was an unexpected surprise! We are looking at booking the property again for a potential summer visit!

The amenities here are great! There are large smart tvs in all the rooms and on the back porch and tiki hut. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was very well stocked with pots/pans, utensils and spices. The dock was spacious and had a wonderful view. We were there over Christmas so didn’t use the water toys but there were many of them. The host was very responsive and they provided anything you might need such as convenient plugs for charging devices and automatic lights on schedules.

This house was absolutely amazing. Has everything you could ever think that you would need. From a fully stocked kitchen to cozy blankets for the inside, cozy blankets for the outside. The dock and cabana were awesome. We rented a boat and voted around the lake right before Thanksgiving. The hose were absolutely amazing. Answered all of our questions. Response was quick. We did have questions. I would totally recommend anyone to stay at their place. We plan to go back in the summertime when the weather is warmer and we can spend more time in the water.

Lovely home, great for families. We especially enjoyed the close proximity to Bridgwater Marina (restaurants, mini golf, shops and arcade) as well as the state park. We visited during the off season and still had plenty to do. We also enjoyed hanging out and fishing off the dock. This house has all the outdoor amenities you could want.

This was our second stay at Dockside Daze, and once again, it was a fantastic week! The house is beautiful and filled with thoughtful amenities that make it feel like home. The yard is spacious—perfect for lawn games and relaxing outdoors. We especially loved the dock and tiki bar area, which is beautifully set up and offers a perfect spot to take in the stunning sunsets each evening. The location is great too—close to plenty of stores, restaurants, and everything you might need.

This property is top notch. The owners provided everything. This truly was an excellent place to be lazy and enjoy the dock and views. Upon arrival it was evident the owners put a lot of attention to detail the house outside and inside was so clean and decorated beautifully. The dock was perfect for our boat and they offered an array of kayaks paddle boats and other water floats ( we used those every day). Absolutely the best experience … so good we booked same week next year!

Perfect lake house! Very clean and comfortable. Has everything you need for a week at the lake. The yard is amazing and such a beautiful dock! The water toys were such a treat and kept us all busy on the water. Really a nice cove for swimming and kayaking. So close to grocery stores and to boat rentals! Really a perfect location! Hope to visit again :)

Thanksgiving getaway

This incredibly well stocked, well thought out, well appointed, gorgeous gem of a home was perfect for our small family Thanksgiving. Any kitchen item you might need - there are several to choose from, including the host bringing over a turkey roasting pan so I didn’t have to bring mine. The beds, super comfy with lovely linens included. The property very well taken care off with so many amenities! Could not recommend more/a real treasure in a picture perfect location.

Dockside Daze

My family enjoyed our stay! The backyard, deck and dock area is fantastic. The tiki bar is a nice addition. We enjoyed the stand up paddle board, kayaks and paddle boat. We rented a boat and were able to tie up to the floating dock with no problem. I am sure during the summer months it is even more fun to spend hours outdoors there with the provided steps directly to the lake. The house was clean and well maintained. The owners were extremely responsive and a pleasure to work with. Thanks again for your hospitality!

Very nice lake vacation house!

The property is very nice, well maintained and set up nice for guest. Very nice location, perfect boat docking setup and well maintain docks. I took a 24' bay boat, dock was perfect for a boat that size. Of the few houses I have rented at Smith Mountain Lake for a few days fishing at other houses in the past, Dockside Daze will now be my go-to for Smith Mountain Lake trips.
