Enjoyable stay
Chad was super responsive to all of our questions. We had everything we needed during our stay. Having a dock was great . We spent a day playing in the water and another on the lake with a rented boat. It was super convenient to be able to pull up to the dock and go check on our dog and grab a few things although the stairs are not for the faint at heart. We saw them as our daily exercise. We really enjoyed our stay. rented bost

Wonderful family reunion
We rented the home for out of town relatives for a family reunion since our lake home is nearby. The home was clean and kitchen well stocked. Grandkids slept in bunk room and loft. Everyone enjoyed staying at the lake home.

Wonderful Stay
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Emerald Den. The lake house and location were very nice. Staying on a lake is a very pleasant experience. The house itself was in great shape with all the amenities one might need or want. The host was very responsive to my questions and requests. Thank you so much to opening up your house to guests.

Quick family get away
My first ever VRBO experience and I couldn’t have picked a better place. The hosts were amazing and super quick to reply with anything we needed. We had a nice little welcome treat and a card thanking us for booking. It’s the little things that mean the most. Very quiet and comfy stay. Will def be booking the Emerald Den again!

Lovely mid-week stay!
We stayed at The Emerald Den for a quick, last minute get-away for our kid’s fall break and had the best, most relaxing time. The hosts had everything you might need available in the home and the lake was gorgeous. We spent most of our time fishing and kid’s swimming off the dock and it was just so relaxing! It was our first time at Smith Lake and most certainly won’t be our last!
