"Only had 1 set of towels for 2 people. A lot of cigarette butts on the sidewalk. Quiet with a nice view. "

"Our three families had the best vacation at the Tranquil Shores Estate. The house was spacious but cozy and the kitchen was the perfect space to gather and enjoy a good meal together. It was great to have both the grill and the griddle to make cooking for everyone a breeze. The pool was so warm the kids spent hours in there everyday and we all loved the hot tub. Fishing and paddle boarding were the favorite activities for all the boys! "

"We rented this house for a 3 generation lake visit for Spring Break this year, and the house exceeded our expectations in many areas!From a first floor owners suite which is perfect tor some more mobility challenged guests to a basement gameroom that was a secluded away space for kids, this property has many separate nooks and spaces that provide a great deal of flexibility for larger groups to not feel in each other's business all the time.The walk down to the lake/boathouse is a bit steep, so be prepared for that, but the multi-level.boar house deck is absolutely lovely for hanging out or enjoying a quiet morning or evening, and the nearby fire pit was a family favorite for bonfires by the lakefront.Of many of the VRBOs/houses we have stayed in, the kitchen here was top notch, both with being outfitted with good equipment, in good functioning order (the knives were fairly sharp, a common oversight we've seen), and everything was clearly labeled to aid in both finding things and putting them back away.The location here is great for exploring the upper Roanoke channel of SML, being a quick 5 min boat ride over to Bridgewater or down lake to th State Park, as well as in an easy driving distance to several local restaurants and wineries.The owners were very attentive and responsive throughout the booking process, and had procidrd clear and detailed documentation on how to use various things or when to call with issues!"

"Love the amenities and lake view. The dock with the perfect weather and breeze was amazing! First time kayakers here, and was a fabulous venue for a first time (I, Mom, loved the purple kayak, claimed it! Haha). We loved the hot tub and game room! As well as our 18 yr old, one eyed, practically blind pup! She loved walking her circles in the space, sons loved the ping pong table and skee-ball! We all loved watching Ant-Man on the big tv. We would love to come back!!"

"Everything was great. The location was perfect for a getaway, the spot was peaceful, etc. no complaints. "

"Beautiful newly built home with clean deep lake water for swimming and floating with the kids. The covered dock and private lakefront are great! The home has plenty of space with private bedrooms and a huge covered porch for morning and evening gatherings. Thank you to the host for a memorable stay on SML. We will be back!"

"The house was fantastic, lots of space and a great layout. The owner was responsive about questions with the grill and parking, great interaction. The driveway is very steep and so scary, none of our guest would parking in it. The ice maker in the basement is extremely loud, we thought there might be something wrong with it, so we turned it off and emptied the bin, just to be safe. The rooms were very nice, with plenty of room for everyone. The bathrooms were very clean and nice. The water pressure is not great but everything worked as expected. The ping pong table, pool table, and hot tub were a big hit. We could not get the outside TVs working, probably just a battery issue. However, the deck and views were really relaxing.Overall, a great experience."

"The host was very responsive to inquiries."

"This is a wonderful house for a group of 8-10! We LOVED the sunrise views over the lake every morning. And there were plenty of games and puzzles provided for us to cozy up to by the fireplace. We also had great views from upstairs and the pool room downstairs.The refrigerator upstairs holds a good amount of food, including an entire Thanksgiving dinner for 10, and the downstairs fridge held our overflow. We played on the dock and at the firepit, again, the views were spectacular at both. My grandkids loved the hammock.The grocery store was conveniently located next to some good restaurants, where we got pizzas, pasta and really good Chinese food.Carrying the trash to the local dump was time consuming and instead of making a second drop, I drove 2 bags home with me.The central living space was so large we easily had room for shared meals, charades and a couple of dance parties with the kids!If you want a nice large home with an amazing view and easy access to food and fun activities I recommend this place. Horseback riding lessons and trail riding are 20 minutes away. Putt putt, arcade and great restaurants less than 30 minutes away. And Roanoake or Lynchburg for great shopping less than an hour away. The cons were the steep incline of the entire property. Views would be limited in summer but beautiful in Spring, Fall and Winter. The heating ducts rattled in some bedrooms and the home is showing some signs of her age.Overall a solid 4 as we had a blast."
