Have you ever thought of packing up and spending the holidays at a home away from home? What about heading to Smith Lake? The regional landmark is popping during the summer months, but it’s also a perfect destination for a holiday getaway!

Grab your friends and family and have yourself a cozy, lakeside Christmas!

“We currently have 60 properties and are daily adding new properties to our program,” said Smith Lake Rentals and Sales Owner Andrea Moates. “Guests can create unforgettable memories by spending their holidays at Smith Lake. It is the perfect backdrop for relaxing with friends and family. We offer spacious rental homes, stunning views of the lake, all within a welcoming community.”

Smith Lake Rentals and Sales has been in business since 2013, but began years before that in 2002, when Maura and Jeff Thomas recognized a need for vacation rentals on Smith Lake and began renting out their own cabin. In 2013, Jeff Thomas retired from the software industry and started working full-time at Smith Lake. At that time, “Smith Lake Rentals” became “Smith Lake Rentals and Sales.” Moates and Ben Grizzell took ownership this year.

Smith Lake is one of the cleanest lakes in the country and boasts a unique watershed that maintains its purity. With depths reaching over 300 feet and no major rivers feeding into it, the lake’s cool, clear waters provide a stunning backdrop for your holiday (or any time of the year) getaway.

“Guests can book directly through our website to save money on extra fees charged by Vrbo and Airbnb websites. Smith Lake Rentals is available for any needs you may have during your stay, 24 hours a day, seven days a week,” said Moates.
