Waterfront vacation rentals in Franklin County

We love Peggy’s place. The view is wonderful, and everything well apportioned. This is our second stay and would gladly visit again.

My sister and neice and I stayed at Key To Stay's condo for 2 nights in February. I had previously stayed at that same condo in November. I originally gave this condo a great review, which is why we rented it again. This visit had a few maintenance issues, but they were eventually resolved and Key To Stay made sure to reach out to me personally to make sure we were satisfied. I do appreciate their commitment to making sure they improve the guest experience. I will definitely be staying here again after the wonderful customer service. The location is beautiful, the lake view can't be beat. The area has some great places to eat also.

the lakehouse was right on the water…very peaceful! The house was well stocked, the kitchen had all the amenities. we enjoyed staying and would love to visit again!

Great place. Very quiet and peaceful. If you like the water. It is right on the lake. Great fishing spot.

Traci and manager Sophia were super responsive to requests and texts. The place was very clean and as advertised. The location is walkable to the marina and a quick drive to other restaurants, state park, and grocery. We would definitely book again.

Andrew is great and has a nice spot! Only bummer was the pool was closed for the season, but that's not on him. Have a nice stay!

This home was spacious and beautiful! We honestly didn’t want to leave. Close to restaurants and grocery stores. We would love to come back and stay.

Jessi’s Air bnb exceeded my expectations! The house its self was beautiful, and the inside was very well kept up! The back deck made the perfect lounging area, as well as the boat dock! We enjoyed lots of sunshine at the dock! Jessi’s communication was amazing, checking in on us, keeping up to date and her response time made questions answerable within minutes! The location of the house is 15 minutes from restaurants which made it very accessible! The house is perched back into a cove, which made it very peaceful and relaxing! I would highly recommend Jessi’s air bnb!

What a great place in a location out of the mayhem. Jessica was a fantastic host.

This is a picturesque quiet spot. It was so beautiful. I was there for graduation so was unable to utilize all amenities i.e. kayak and paddleboard. the decks are beautiful, the scenery is relaxing and the house is well appointed. It was so fun to have a foosball table and ping pong table downstairs. The couch in the basement was also super comfortable! The kitchen had everything you would need even spices that are beyond the salt and pepper.

Shady Oaks is located in a quaint development right on the water. It's heavily wooded with lots of shade. The neighborhood is generally quiet and there is a private road that loops down and back. The house is well maintained and features lots of outdoor space to enjoy your stay. Water access is via the dock which also features an elevated deck above the dock. The kids and I spent most of our time at the dock--enjoying the cove by either fishing or kayaking (2 come with the rental). Relaxing on the deck was also great in the evening. We brought our puppy since dogs are allowed (extra $25 per day upto 2 dogs). It was nice to have an enclosed deck off the main level for our puppy to enjoy with us. The beds were very firm memory foam, but comfy. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, utensil, gadgets, spices, and oils. The location is convenient to the state park (a must), Virginia Dare boat tour, restaurants, and shopping. Overall a good 3-day weekend stay.

Great host. Very responsive. The place was extremely well maintained and very clean. Everything worked exactly as it should from the keyless entry to Internet access. The property is located .5 miles down a gravel road, which is rustic and dusty. The area is rustic as well. The price was a little high for a manufactured home but it was a holiday weekend.

Carol was a great host - super helpful, responsive, & kind. This spot is such a gem. Unique things to do in the area, and such a relaxing and beautiful atmosphere in their space. Will hopefully be back soon!

Absolutely great place to stay! Exactly as described and it was beautiful. The deck is the perfect place to hang out with your family with the grill and all the space. Inside was cozy and well kept. Stocked with games and books for kids. Joseph was responsive and a great host. We are definitely looking forward to booking with him again!

Perfect for dog lovers and lake lovers! I’ve rented various condos at Smith Mountain Lake and several different ones at Stripers Landing, but Shannon’s place is now my new favorite. With a great view, plenty of space and the option to bring the pup - it’s such a treat. Highly recommend.

Mick’s place was the perfect spot for a long weekend with my son! Everything was clean and tidy, the decor was lovely and the directions were all very straightforward. The view of the lake from the porch swing was beautiful, we spent a lot of the time parked right there. It was very peaceful even on a holiday weekend. All of the amenities of Bernard’s Landing were great for entertaining a 9 year old as well. We visited the indoor pool and the beach and enjoyed the restaurant. We were a little disappointed to find that the outdoor pools weren’t open yet as it was in the 80’s, but it wasn’t a big deal. Thanks for sharing your space with us!

Just as described. Will be returning on our next trip!

This was a great place to stay for our first time visiting SML! Beautiful views and very comfortable. Only 10 min drive to the grocery store, which is good for this area.

We had a great time staying here! The view of the lake right outside the window was amazing. It was too cold to get in the lake but the heated outdoor pool right next to the condo was perfect! The condo itself was clean, easy to access, and had everything we needed for a weekend away. We will definitely stay here again!

Great couples place with fantastic views! Short drive to restaurants and grocery. We really enjoyed our short stay here and had everything we needed. Bed was super comfy and we enjoyed coffee in the morning overlooking the lake! We didn’t begin to use all the amenities offered as we were there for other reasons but a free boat slip, grill picnic areas and the pool were definitely inviting.

We found this getaway to be so peaceful! We loved how clean the place was ! We are already looking forward to another trip ! Minus the kids ! The kids had a blast as well ! Lots to do !

We totally fell in love with Lauren's place! It was clean, peaceful, and beautifully decorated. This was our second visit to Smith Mountain Lake, as we are starting to get a feel for possibly retiring to that area. Lauren answered any questions we had quickly. We would definitely like to go back!
