Cabin 2 at Cedar Key - Serene waterfront setting/No wake cove/Dog friendly!

Imagine mornings watching the cool mist rise off of the reflections of undeveloped forest, the “sound” of silence, beautiful views of sunset on the water, and potluck barbeque dinners on the back deck with friends. At the end of the day, enjoy the night sky the way it was intended, without any light pollution! If you’re looking for a reprieve from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, you’ve found the right place.

A shared dock gives full access to this serene no wake cove for swimming, paddleboarding, and docking your boat, so you can enjoy all the lake has to offer.

Our pet friendly atmosphere allows you to enjoy this setting without having to leave your canine family members behind.

Within a 30 minute drive, Smith Mountain Lake offers access to horseback riding, golf, hiking trails, and wineries. The nearby state park includes a small beach for younger visitors. This is Virginia's most popular lake and is a fisherman's paradise, with over 500 miles of shoreline on this 40-mile long, 20,000 acre lake stocked with bass, muskies, northern pike and panfish.

High-speed internet allows for viewing movies and shows from your own streaming accounts and the occasional remote work if absolutely necessary.

This two-bedroom, one bath cabin has a fully stocked kitchen and a charcoal grill for use on the full length deck.

A common dock is shared with neighbors in Cabin 1.

A dedicated parking spot is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac.

Smoke-free property.

Central air conditioning and heat, ceiling fans throughout.

GUESTS SHOULD BRING LINENS (FOR ONE QUEEN AND TWO TWIN BEDS), BATH TOWELS, WASH CLOTHS, DISH TOWELS, ETC. Linens may be provided for an additional $75 fee.

While the cabin is dog-friendly, due to the increased wear and tear to the property and furnishings, as well as increased cleaning, there is a $50 pet fee. This is automatically assessed on the VRBO app but not on the PC/Mac website and may be added as a separate invoice after booking if not automatically included.

Enjoy your time "Unleashed"!

They thought of everything!

So much attention to detail. Our cabin was pet friendly and they included a small trash can outside for pet waste, waste pick up bags and wipes and pet water bowls. The beautiful porch had a gate which was completely secure for our pet so we could all hang out together without worry. It had enough paper products, including paper plates, bowls, towels, toilet tissue, Kleenex for our 3 day stay. The bathroom included shampoo, conditioner and lotion and the shower had good water pressure and a nozzle that was removable.The bed was comfortable. However, the queen sheets we brought to cover the queen bed did not fit, probably due to the depth of the mattress so I would bring king sheets next time.There were games, books and tv for your rainy day entertainment.But mostly, it was a lovely, clean cabin on a quiet cove on the lake, with it's own private dock and breathtaking views.

Another great stay!

We have been staying at this great little cabin on Smith Mountain Lake for several years now, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. The owners are great to work with, respond quickly to any questions, and each year they have made improvements that make the experience even better. If you have a small family and are looking for an excellent getaway on the lake, this is the place!

Fabulous SML Weekend

We had the most relaxing weekend in Cabin 2 at Cedar Key. The accommodations were perfect for me, my husband, and our terrier pup. Sipping wine in the sunshine on the dock, fall hikes, and even a couple of chilly swims were highlights of our stay. The cabin is small, but mighty, equipped with everything we needed for our getaway and then some. Thanks for hosting us!

Well furnished Cabin with Amazing Lake View

Stayed here with my wife for just a short weekend. Cabin was well stocked with everything we needed and the bed was very comfortable. Really enjoyed sitting outside on the large deck and taking in the lake, which seems to be in a quieter section. Would definitely stay here again.

Loved it!

This cabin had everything I could ask for and more. We are a family of four and two docs. We loved our time at the cabin. I brought enough food for our weekend and found the kitchen to be well and nicely equipped. I was able to cook all of our meals without issue. Our children loved the dock and we all enjoyed the deck. It was lovely playing board games in the evening and we rented a boat from parkway Marina and had a lovely time out on the lake. I've never boated before but found it to be pretty easy to navigate. I've never spent much time at a lake but this trip has made me a convert. We will be back!

Awesome cabin vacation

Great little cabin for the family. Its located on the east end of the lake, so its a lot more quiet. For the firat few days, we were the only people around, and we basically had the lake cove to ourselves. Beautiful setting to eat breakfast on the deck with the view of the water. Great hosts as well. Very responsive and took care of everything. Highly recommend!

The cabin was very clean and nicely decorated. Beautiful and peaceful lake. I enjoyed watching the squirrels and saw a few deer. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone just looking to get away for some peace and quiet. I’m hoping to go back soon and bring my puppies. Very pet friendly atmosphere.

Another great stay!

This is our sixth stay at this cabin and the second time under the current ownership. This cabin is perfect for a small family getaway, and the owners have made lots of updates to make the stay even more enjoyable. Ken and Cindy are extremely responsive to any questions, and truly want their renters to have a great experience at their cabin. We look forward to many future vacations at our favorite cabin on Smith Mountain Lake!

Quiet and relaxing

My husband and I were looking for somewhere quiet in the woods away from everything to just relax. The cabin was beyond what we hoped for. The view was beautiful, the cabin had everything we could need. Not even the rain could ruin our visit, we open the door and watched the rain on the lake. We will definitely be back.

Perfect Little Hideaway

The pictures do the property justice. The family and I came up for an open water swim competition. We were looking for a place accessible to the lake to use our boat and get to the competition. The location to Smith Mountain Lake State Park was perfect. 10 minutes by boat and drive. The cabin was clean and organized. The cabin is very basic (A good thing). No clutter or extras that detract from the living accommodations. Back patio is large and a great place to entertain with amazing views of the lake and foliage. The owners must keep notifications on speed dial as they responded instantly to any and all questions we had. This cabin is absolutely saved to my favorites and we will be back.

Perfect Getaway

Cedar Key Cabin #2 was the perfect getaway for my husband and me. The location is beautiful and so peaceful. It was nice to look across the lake and have a complete view of nature (no houses). The cabin was well equipped with everything we needed to have a comfortable stay. There was no need to leave. We actually decided to stay in and cook all meals there. That is a first for us. We usually eat out. The hosts were very responsive, kind and accommodating. They allowed us to change our dates last minute due to a family emergency. We have stayed in several nice homes at SML, but this one was perfect for us and is by far a favorite. We definitely plan to return.

Nothing short of amazing; everything you need: peace & quiet, serenit & stocked with all you'd need.

This property is located amongst ~8 other cabins and next to a larger Loge (bigger cabin). It has a massive deck, and parking spot is about 20 yards from the front door. The deck overlooks the walking path down to the dock and the lake. During our stay, the other cabin tenants left after one day so there was no one around and it was super quiet and peaceful (which could be too quiet, depending how you like it). Though no one was around, totally felt safe can easily hear cars coming up the gravel road or ppl walking (due to gravel & fall leaves). Caught plenty of fish at the docks. Every drawer and cabinet was stocked with exactly what you'd need. Fresh coffee? check, appliances and dinnerware? check. Fishing peripherals? check. Games and books? Check. Extra blanket? Check. Plenty of seating and awesome Adirondack deck chairs? Check. Every nook and cranny we looked at, there was something useful and nice to have in the cabin. I often say that I miss being home and in my own bed and have my own TV but I sincerely felt sad leaving the cabin and am looking forward to coming back. Of note; be ware there is minimal restaurant options and groceries, etc. so it'd be good to show up with groceries, snacks, etc. so you can settle in and not have to leave to look for food, etc.

Such a wonderful stay at this precious cabin! An awesome Smith Mountain Lake experience! Everything was inclusive and it felt so much like being at home! We ended up eating and staying at the cabin more than expected because of the beauty of the property rather than eating out. Can’t wait to come back!
