About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Bella Vista on Lewis Smith Lake

The house includes (3) KING suites with tv's, 1 double queen suite with a tv and bunk room with (2) sets of bunk beds and a tv. The master suite has its own balcony with a gorgeous view of the lake and its own master bath that's perfect for soaking and gathering your thoughts after a full day’s activities.
Bella Vista also has an outdoor kitchen/patio that we feel is the perfect place to be with its beautiful views of the picture-perfect sunrises and sunsets, custom made fire pit, Weber gas grill, Green Egg smoker, dining area along with lounging chairs and a 65" outdoor TV.
Note, there are 2 cameras located on property. 1 is pointed at the driveway and only used as security during vacant times, the other is pointed at the dock and also used as security during vacant times as well as to monitor the dock during heavy storms.

Guests have full access to the entire house, patio, backyard, boat dock, fire pits etc. all to themselves. House access is via smart lock system.

Please note: The walk to and from the lake and boat dock is steep. Children, elderly guests, and anyone needing assistance should be supervised at all times. This property also has cliffs and rocky areas that should be avoided. For safety, do not go beyond the fenced area. A golf cart path is available if you choose to rent or bring a golf cart or ATV. Please do not drive any other vehicle down the ramp.

This house was perfect. Not only is the interior beautiful, but the sunrise and sunset views are amazing. Our favorite features were the private boat slip, the double decker dock, the outdoor kitchen overlooking the water, the shuffleboard table, and the PacMan/arcade games. Having multiple rooms with king size beds was perfect for our family vacationing as a big group. We appreciated that there was a pack n play and highchair (less things to pack!) The house was very clean and the host was very helpful. We will be coming back!
