Anchors Aweigh was wonderful for our family's week-long vacation. The home was nicely furnished and the views were great. The boat dock worked well for our boat and we figured out how to tie up 2 additional jet skis for a few days. The kayaks and hot tub were also great hits, as were the multiple outdoor seating areas and the beautiful, large dining table.
The downsides were few, but notable. The place was not as clean as we would have expected (we admittedly have high standards), so a couple of us spent an hour or so cleaning when we first arrived. Also, the air hockey table has been abused and could use some attention. The pool table is nice, but in a tight space, so playing takes a bit of creativity. Finally, we were under the impression that the covered boat area would be available to store our boat while we were there. It certainly exists, but there is a boat already there. After re-reading the description more carefully, we realized only the boat house is available for visitors. Our mistake (and easily worked around), but we felt this could be more clearly stated in the description.
Overall, we had a wonderful week with friends and family. The home is beautiful. We loved our stay and would come back to Smith Mountain Lake again. Thank you!
