About this place

Finekettle House: Luxury Lake and Mountain Views with 600 feet of Private Shoreline

Finekettle House sits on 2 private acres, with 600 feet of shoreline on a private cove, and multiple indoor and outdoor spaces to enjoy some of the most stunning and private views Smith Mountain Lake has to offer. Finekettle has been in our family for three generations, and as hosts we do all we can to ensure our home is comfortable and fully equipped for making great memories with family and friends, just as we have since the original house was built in 1968.

The interior of Finekettle House offers five bedrooms and five baths, a fully furnished chef's kitchen ready for cooking and baking, three living spaces, including a main floor living room, a main floor billiards room, and a downstairs living room with a foosball table and kitchenette, as well as a dedicated office space on the main floor.

Outdoor spaces abound at Finekettle, including a patio with large gas grill, outdoor fireplace and seating, a screened porch for morning coffee or evening cocktails, and a lower patio. The dock offers a boat slip, two floating docks, and a boathouse stocked with life jackets, and additional seating if required. Three Crescent kayaks (one which is a convertible SUP Plus which allows for kayaking or paddle boarding) are furnished for guest use.

Cable and highspeed internet make this luxury home the perfect place to work remotely or relax on vacation. Luxury linens and towels, as well as beach towels for use on the lake, are furnished.

My promise to our guests is to ensure Finekettle remains for our guests what it has always been for our family: a wonderful, comfortable and exceptionally well-appointed home to make memories and enjoy this special spot on the lake!
