Allie's on the Rocks pet-friendly lake bungalow

Welcome to Allie’s on the Rocks, a fully renovated (2021) lakefront bungalow designed for relaxation, adventure, and comfort. Named after our beloved pup Allie, who adores lounging on the covered deck, this cozy retreat is the perfect blend of modern design and lakeside charm. Whether you’re here to fish, kayak, work remotely, or simply unwind, Allie’s on the Rocks offers everything you need for a memorable stay at Smith Lake.

Inside, you’ll find two beautifully appointed bedrooms, two bathrooms, and plenty of space to relax. The upstairs master suite features a king bed, Roku TV, dresser, closet, reading chair, and a large desk/workspace surrounded by windows with stunning lake views. The attached bathroom has a modern design and a locking barn door, for privacy. Tucked away on its own level, this suite offers a peaceful, private retreat even without a door at the stairway.

The first floor includes a welcoming living area and a cozy second bedroom with a queen bed, Roku TV, and a sliding barn door for privacy. The newly renovated recreation room doubles as a sleeping area, complete with a queen sofa sleeper, dresser, desk/workspace, Roku TV, and direct access to the back porch. You’ll also find a convenient washer/dryer closet for your use.

Every TV in the house is equipped with Roku and high-speed internet (200 MB download), providing access to numerous free channels—including MLB, NFL, and 75+ live options. You can also log in to your own streaming accounts for a personalized experience.

The kitchen and dining area come fully stocked with everything you need to prepare meals or enjoy your morning coffee. You’ll find a full suite of modern appliances, cookware, utensils, and even a coffee and tea station. For outdoor chefs, there’s a propane grill ready for cookouts on the porch. The indoor dining table comfortably seats four, with additional outdoor seating for up to eight guests on the covered porch overlooking the lake.

Allie’s on the Rocks is pet-friendly, with thoughtful touches to make your furry companions feel right at home. The fenced backyard allows pets to safely enjoy the porch, deck, dock, and waterfront without wandering off. A convenient pet cleanup station and other pet amenities are provided to make your stay easier.

The property sits at the confluence of two creeks, offering calm waters and fantastic fishing. Depending on the season, the water may vary in clarity—perfect for anglers and kayakers alike. In summer, you’ll enjoy lively lake activity and beautiful sunsets. From October to March, the water level lowers, which can make the dock ramp steep or occasionally unusable—but the peaceful atmosphere and crisp lake views during this time are unmatched.

Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway or an extended lakeside stay, Allie’s on the Rocks invites you to slow down, reconnect, and make lasting memories. Sit on the porch with a morning coffee or evening cocktail, listen to the water lap against the shore, and feel the stress melt away.

Perfect vacation home

This place was awesome! If you travel with pets you want to stay here. They thought of everything. The location was perfect, it's in walking distance of a restaurant and the marina. We will stay here again.

Great stay - the property was extremely clean, very welcoming, cozy and comfortable. Tim anticipated all of our needs and communicated very effectively through our entire stay. Though we didn't bring our dogs, he is fully prepared to accommodate four legged visitors and we really appreciated his personal dog-themed touches. Very relaxing and we would definitely stay there again.

Perfect get away!

We loved that this property was more than pet friendly - it was pro pet! We had our yellow lab with us and having the fenced back yard was great for him to be able to explore. The house was well appointed and very clean. I wish the restaurant next door was still open - but the kitchen was well supplied. Great get away - beautiful views!

Great owner and great house

For me the most important part of any stay is how the owner treats you. Tim’s communication is outstanding and his attention to detail makes you feel very welcome in his property. The house is very cute and clean and the covered porch is a great place to relax and enjoy the view. Look forward to working with Tim again.

Great Lake house

Lake house was perfect for our family, however, the dock walkway down is very steep and would not recommend for young children or elderly. House is very well stocked and very thought out for guest. Loved the spacious deck and observation deck was an added plus. More roomy than in pictures. Loved our stay and would stay again in future.

This is a wonderful lake house. Decorated very pretty. Very clean . Just about every convenience you could ask for they have provided. The front is unassuming but the back porch, yard and of the course the lake make it all a beautiful and relaxing space. Would definitely visit again

Pup friendly break

Allie’s is just as described. The host has included so many thoughtful extras - from the keepsake bottle opener to towels, treats for pups and pantry staples / cooking tools for nesting in the lovely lakeside location. One reviewer noted the steep drop to the lake - and it is - so no toddlers or small kids here but perfect for adults and pups.

Refreshing property

The hosts were communicative and left personal touches to let you know they cared about your experience. The home inside is refreshing and up to date , full of personality , beds are comfy ( bottom bed a little squeaky ) .. we had all we needed - well stocked kitchen. Back porch is nice . Water lake level was way down so dock was steep to get to, but we are able bodied and enjoyed it very much. Gorgeous sunset views from the height of the rocks . We highly recommend !

A little piece of heaven

What an amazing retreat location. The perfect place to recharge your batteries. From start to finish, Karen and Tim were fantastic. They were so excellent at responding to any question I had before checkin and made that process super easy. The house was pristine upon arrival and any question I had, they were right on top of it! Karen even came over after a tornado came thru the area as i was having internet issues and took care of it instantly. The area is charming, the house is lovely and i have never seen such a variety of birds on the lake in my life. Overall...if you need to relax, recharge and reinvigorate.....Allie's is where you want to be!

Little family getaway!

This home is absolutely perfect! If you want a peaceful stay right on the lake this is your place! From the yard, to the bedrooms, the bathrooms, towels, linens, the porch and everything in between was awesome! We visited Cullman Alabama for a family wedding and stayed for 3 nights but I am planning another trip for the summer already! We really enjoyed the porch with our fur babies who also loved this home too. We loved the marina restaurant that’s literally right across from this home, you walk down the driveway and you have food right there. We walked our dogs all around the area too, so quiet and friendly people around! The bedroom upstairs is where we slept and the view is to die for, and the bed is very comfortable - it’s important to us to have nice beds when your on vacation; Also, we loved that it has a the huge board games collection and the kitchen was fully stocked. All the essentials this home has! We didn’t get to enjoy the kayaks or fishing because the water was low during our trip but we can’t wait to return! You won’t regret staying here!!

Feels like home.

We stayed at Allies on the rocks the last weekend in June. We were a bit skeptical about the location pulling up to the property but no once we opened the front door. The house is extremely well cared for and we immediately felt at home. The view is incredible and the home is well furnished. There are several outdoor areas to sit and enjoy the lake. Access to the water is a bit steep and you need to use caution when getting down. The kitchen has everything you should need including a fabulous coffee bar area. The primary bedroom on the 2nd floor has a great view as well. The bed was very comfortable and so were the pillows. We had our dog with us as well and he was very comfortable as well. He had several spots outside where he took lazy summer naps. The host has thought of everything and you really only need to bring food and personal items for your stay. The host also has added a few special touches for your stay along with a nice welcome note. Very unexpected and appreciated. We had a great time!

Peaceful Tranquility

Spent 5 days at Allies while attending Church International Spiritual Celebration. The peaceful quiet surroundings were perfect for my personal reflection and spiritual growth. I chose this property expecting to travel with my Australian Shepherd , the property inside and outside is ideal for traveling with pets. The ambience inside and outside are truly 5 star. Glorious sunrise enjoyed on the lower deck . I will be returning to Allie’s with family and friends…Host was exceptional …thank you for sharing Allie’s S Curry Arkansas
