Waterfront holiday rentals in Lynchburg

This little retreat is so peaceful and serene. It's the perfect place to unplug and just soak up the nature. The apartment was cozy and had all the right touches to make you feel at home.

Very modern interior with a peaceful deck overlooking the lake. Extremely accommodating host (we were traveling with an infant). Place has everything you could need (cookware, utensils, tea/coffee, etc.) - would recommend :)

It’s really hard to say adequately how wonderful our stay here was. We were here for our son’s college graduation & military commissioning at Liberty University, which is only about a 15 minute drive but feels worlds away from the chaos of the graduation. We almost didn’t consider this place because of having to share a bathroom with 3 teenagers. But the bathroom was so large, incredibly clean, & had so many towels & towel racks it didn’t feel difficult at all. I sat out on the front porch or on the Adirondack chairs every day. And our family used the covered patio area they built off to the side for several meals with extended family that would pop by. Mike & Alice are fantastic hosts. My husband’s favorite part with how friendly response if they were with anything that we desired, even restocking the waters. I loved the history they put together about the house. It really is such a great place and made our trip incredibly special. So special it may ruin every other Airbnb for us.

We needed an Airbnb for a wedding. Booked early and location was perfect for where the wedding and events took place. Instructions were clear and we were able to find and get into the unit first try, no problems. Parking was easy and there was plenty with a short walk to the building. Unit was stocked with a full kitchen and washer/dryer, bed, full bath, love seat, and 2 seater table. Price for the unit was definitely reasonable! Perfect for a couple to getaway at the lake! I did message the host to see about getting access to the indoor pool and hot tub (which we ended up not having time for anyway) but I never heard back. This wasn’t a big deal but hopefully a prompt response would happen if any issues arose. Overall, great trip, cozy place, and affordable price!

Perfect for a cozy get away. Clean and cute. The beds and linens were super comfortable! Wish I had more time to enjoy the location and tranquility! Shandi was an awesome host! Thank you!

We were looking for a quiet and peaceful place to stay after a day of hard work in the sun. This fit the bill beautifully! The property is beautiful, check in was simple, and we could park right by the door. There were thoughtful touches like snacks and breakfast options, and we had everything we needed. We are staying there 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.

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

The cabin was clean, river access was great, and it's close to downtown Lynchburg with just a few minutes of driving. Matthew was accomodating with our arrival time due to some last minute changes on our end and we were grateful for that. I'd stay again if visiting the area.

This lakefront spot was perfect for a laid-back weekend with my childhood friends. The house was clean, updated, and had plenty of space for all of us to hang out and relax. The private dock was a standout—we spent a ton of time by the water, just catching up and enjoying the quiet. The host made everything easy, from check-in to check-out. Whether we were grilling, enjoying the hot tub, or just kicking back on the deck, it was exactly the kind of getaway we needed. Would definitely come back.

Amy’s place was a true hidden gem, beautiful property, 60 acres of country living and privacy to roam, yet all the comforts of home in the house itself. Kitchen was super clean with modern appliances, with everything you might need to make meals. Bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and exactly what we needed, the kids especially loved having their own rooms, and their own separate section of the house! Our dog enjoyed every minute of off-leash time, exploring the woods, trails, and favorite place by far, the creek! Amy was very responsive and messaged with us back and forth before, during and after our stay. Town is not too far away with restaurants and activities, and Amy was quick to offer suggestions. All in all a great, memory-making trip, and we hope to come back to visit again soon!

Spacious, beautiful home perfect for groups! Highlights include stunning views, a well-stocked kitchen, fun basement game room, multiple areas to sit and relax outside, and ability to rent and dock a boat at the home throughout your stay. During this lake vacation we had a ball swimming, fishing, kayaking, boating to restaurants, and ordering treats from the ice cream boat! Some reviews mention run down houses on the private road leading up to Kate's home. Just respect the 15mph speed limit and the neighbors are quite friendly. We spoke to one who was out gardening and told us about Moneta before the lake was built! If you're eager for a lake vacation, this is the place!

this is a must stay if yoy want to relax from the outside world private dock was ver convienent and his house was very cozy this will be a destination i will come to again for sure !

Very peaceful location right on the lake. We very much enjoyed having our coffee in the morning out on the dock. Easy trip to Natural Bridge from this location to explore the area and wonderful restaurants available in Lynchburg.

This is a very spacious home with enough room for a large group. The bedrooms and bathrooms are all great, and everything is clean. The kitchen is well stocked and there is a table that seats 10 people. It was very peaceful and quiet. It is an easy walk to the water and the gazebo and fire pit were nice to have. We enjoyed our stay and it was very easy to communicate with the host.

Peaceful, beautiful property. House was comfortable and equipped, would definitely stay again.

We loved our stay, had everything we needed. The home is newer and was clean, spacious and very nicely decorated. The view is simply lovely. We were in town for a wedding but plan on coming back and could not imagine staying anywhere else. Great coffee shops, restaurants, shops, parks, trails and even farmers market are walkable from Angel’s home.

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.

A very peaceful spot. The place was excellent. Very spacious and clean. Lots of fluffy towels and linens. Comfy beds. We arrived late and got confused with the two different locks in the dark, but management was very helpful and fast to respond, and we got in just fine. We looked in at the pool and gym one rainy day, but did not try them out. If you are looking for a peaceful retreat, this is it. Would stay again.

Loved our stay at SML! The coffee bar was a great touch and the towels were incredibly soft. Danielle and Ryan are great host. Would definitely come back!

We had a great time! Kathleen thought about all the little things and we didn’t want for anything. The views were fantastic on the deck, we sat out there often. The living quarters were beautiful. Thank you for a wonderful time.

One of my daughters and I stayed at Matt's listing to just get away and be together. It was a wonderful stay! A very easy walk to a private and lovely beach area. Easy access to 2 great pools, a hot tub, sauna and even racquetball court. Our time inside Matt's space was equally as relaxing. Simple and comfortable decorations, all things desired were easy to find. Even had a dishwasher - that was a treat! It was great to have the top floor as the view was fabulous. Top floor did mean taking a few stairs, but that was not at all a big deal. We hope that Matt was satisfied with our stay, because we would LOVE to return (and other daughters are hoping they get to go :)!

This was a wonderful place to stay! Mary Anne was incredibly responsive and helpful at all times. The place and surrounding area was peaceful and relaxing. Would definitely stay there again and highly recommend!

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.
