Gus's Getaway

We had an awesome guys’ week at Gus's Getaway! This simple, easy-to-manage home was perfect for our group. We loved having the option to get our boats under cover, and the second refrigerator was a huge plus for storing our drinks and snacks. Evenings were spent playing pool and sharing tall tales, creating a great, laid-back atmosphere. The house isn’t too frilly, making it feel very comfortable for four guys to share. We enjoyed using the Blackstone grill to cook up our evening catches from the lake. The fishing at Smith Mountain Lake was fantastic! We had a great time catching striper and catfish. The water was clear and cool, and we enjoyed fishing from both the boat and the dock. This is truly a great lake for boating, sailing, fishing, or just relaxing and watching the sunsets. I would highly recommend Gus's Getaway for a fun family vacation. Thanks for providing such a great place to unwind and enjoy the outdoors!

The dock is fantastic, and that is where we spent most of our time! We loved that this home was dog-friendly, so we brought our two fur babies!! We also loved having amenities like the pool table, and firepit. The gas grill should be replaced, but the new Blackstone griddle is excellent; we enjoyed cooking meals on it. The only other negative thing is the neighbor's dogs are very loud; they bark a lot.

This house had plenty of space for my family, and the kitchen was well-stocked with all the necessities. The dock is huge, with plenty of space for lounging and swimming. The kids loved running and playing in the yard. We enjoyed cooking our meals on the gas grill, playing pool while it was raining, and making smores by the firepit. The whole family enjoyed going out on the boat that we were able to dock at the house, which was so convenient. We do wish the neighbor was not so close (on the same property), but otherwise, we had a great time and will always remember the memories we made here.

The home was well stocked and had everything we could have needed. The dock has both covered and uncovered areas, perfect for any weather! And the home itself was very clean and cozy! We will definitely return to Gus's Getaway!!
