Great place on the lake
We had a wonderful stay. The boys enjoyed learning about bass fishing from Billy Kohls. Great hikes nearby. Hot tub was fantastic after the cold days. Wonderful fenced in backyard for our pups. Lots of games for rainy day, just wish there would have been pool stick chalk so my husband could’ve taught my son pool table shots. Excellent location! We would stay here again

Great vacation spot
The house was great as was the location. Kids enjoyed the pool and foosball. Even though we went in the winter, we loved relaxing in the hot tub and gathering around the fire pit. The owner/management company was super responsive - texting back right away, answering questions and just generally very helpful.

Great home and location
This was our second family trip to SML. This location was better than the first. Close to Moneta (10min) and closer drive for us from home, fenced in yard was nice for our dog and the kids really enjoyed the pool table. Lots of space and the beds were awesome. We're going to try and get this place next year.

Lovely Lake Retreat
We loved staying at Heron's Rest! We are a family of 7 adults plus 1 dog, and everyone had a blast. The house was just right for us and everything was clean and in good working order. The walk to/from the lake and the house is a bit steep, but it's not a problem as long as you are in reasonably good shape. The dock was one of our favorite places, as there are plenty of chairs and a canoe to enjoy. We also used it for docking a jet ski and pontoon boat that we rented, as well as for launching ourselves into our inflatables and doing some leisurely floating around. We also took advantage of the fire pit to roast marshmallows and make s'mores. We only wish we could have stayed longer.

It was fine, except hot tub barely functioned.
Beds: check! Quiet: check! Hot tub: Maybe working 30%. ☹️. But that seems to be normal. The last few places my wife and I have been, the website says hit tub, but each time the tub is barely functioning. Sad. We won’t get tricked again by VRBO.

45th anniversary
We wanted to find a nice place to get away for our 45th anniversary and we found it at the Heron at Smith Mountain Lake. The house had a lot to keep us busy and never bored. Had to make one call after all the rain and they had someone there within 25 minutes. The house was cozy and so open, bed was really comfortable.

Great stay!
Great house on the lake. The layout was perfect for family. We all had privacy and quiet at night, but great family spaces during the day. We took our dog with us and he really enjoyed the fenced portion of the yard (we did too, that amenity is hard to come by). Highly recommended and we are already planning a time to stay there again.
