Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia’s 2nd largest lake (40 miles long with 550 miles of shoreline) will enchant you with recreational opportunities. Bring your own boat, jet skis, sailboat or we will help you rent one and you can dock it at our pier. Anglers will be guided to fishing spots for pan fish or those Stripers that are caught in record sizes on the lake. Swim in our secluded cove from our dock or beach, in the cleanest lake in Virginia, or enjoy the hiking and beach at SML State Park.
