Little Lake House: Hot Tub, King Bed, Wooded Acre - Smithville

Lake days. Waterfall hikes. Hot-tub nights.

A wooded acre to unwind on, lake access just down the road and a comfortable cabin to return to after exploring. The Little Lake House brings these together in a two-bedroom, two-bathroom retreat for four near Center Hill Lake.

Walk five minutes or drive one minute to the public boat launch. Spend your day boating, exploring waterfalls or hiking, then return for a soak in the private hot tub, dinner on the deck and conversation around the fire pit. Guests consistently praise the peaceful setting, well-stocked home and thoughtful hosting.

ROOM TO RELAX

Large windows bring the wooded surroundings into the living area. Stretch out on the sectional, enjoy the electric fireplace or gather at the dining table for a meal or game.

The 1,175-square-foot cabin is on one level, with no interior stairs, central heating and air conditioning. Both bedrooms have Roku TVs. The primary bedroom opens onto the deck, with morning light through the large glass doors; the queen bedroom looks into the trees.

The kitchen has a full-size stove, oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, air fryer, cookware and cooking basics. A stocked coffee-and-tea station includes drip and Keurig coffee makers, regular and decaf coffee, tea and the extras.

An arcade cabinet, board games, books and the projector give you plenty to enjoy between outings. Use your own streaming subscriptions for movies and television. A full-size washer and dryer with detergent and a Pack ’n Play are also available.

MORNINGS IN THE TREES, EVENINGS UNDER THE STARS

Take your coffee onto the deck, settle into the hammock or stretch out on a sun lounger. Grill dinner and eat outside before soaking in the hot tub. Finish with a movie on the deck or a fire and time together.

Lake views vary with foliage and water levels. The wooded setting offers its own appeal in every season.

YOUR LAKE & WATERFALL HOME BASE

Puckett Point Public Boat Launch is approximately 400 yards away—a five-minute walk or one-minute drive. The concrete ramp and free paved parking provide convenient access for boats, kayaks and paddleboards. This public access point has no dock, restrooms or marina services.

Hurricane Marina is a short drive away for boat rentals, waterfront dining and marina facilities. Beyond the lake, explore Burgess Falls, Rock Island and other regional waterfalls and trails, visit the Appalachian Center for Craft or discover local restaurants.

I’m happy to help you choose outings that fit your interests. Tony’s Guide provides practical recommendations for waterfalls, hiking, boating, food and local discoveries. Guests regularly mention how those recommendations helped them enjoy their stay.

PARKING & DOGS

The driveway accommodates two vehicles plus a boat trailer up to 16 feet in total length. Maneuvering can be tight; contact Tony before booking to confirm your boat-and-trailer setup will fit.

One dog up to 40 pounds, or two dogs with a combined weight of no more than 60 pounds, are welcome without a request or prior approval. A $100 per dog pet fee applies. Larger dogs require approval before booking. Dogs must be crated when left unattended. The fee excludes damage or excessive cleaning.

GOOD TO KNOW

Smart-lock self-check-in makes arrival easy. You have private use of the cabin and outdoor living areas; locked owner storage and the garage are unavailable. I respect your privacy and remain available for assistance.

No parties, large gatherings or unregistered guests. Quiet hours are 10 p.m.–8 a.m. Wildlife, insects and changing weather are part of the wooded setting. Exterior security cameras are present; review the camera disclosure and booking policies before reserving.
