Lake Emerald Shores — Your Pet-Friendly Lakefront Haven on Smith Mountain Lake
Welcome to Lake Emerald Shores, where lakefront comfort meets endless fun! Nestled in a peaceful cove across from undeveloped state park shoreline, this spacious retreat offers beautiful water views, cozy living spaces, and a host of amenities designed for families, friends, and their furry companions.
The Home
With 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, this inviting home comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests (per Bedford County regulations). Inside, you'll find soaring ceilings, warm wood accents, and plenty of space to unwind. Curl up with a book in one of the cozy reading nooks, gather in the open living and dining areas, or relax in the sunroom overlooking the lake.
For entertainment, enjoy foosball, darts, cornhole, and large TVs throughout the home — there's truly something for everyone.
Outdoor Living
Follow the gentle slope to your private dock for sunbathing, swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, or picnicking. The quiet cove and 9-foot average water depth make it perfect for relaxing or docking your own boat (or a rental). End your day soaking in the hot tub or gathering around the fire pit under the stars.
Location
Ideally located near the heart of Smith Mountain Lake, Lake Emerald Shores is just a short drive to local marinas, restaurants, and parks — yet feels secluded and serene thanks to its natural shoreline views.
