Clean Nice fun place

Place is clean and modern. Pool, hot tub, and lake all great! The perfect balance for family during graduation .Paddle boarding and kayak and pool table kept the young everyone smiling! Property does have a steep driveway and does not come with essentials- something to keep in mind but overall was a great stay!

A fun and relaxing lake house!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sandy Bottom Cove. Great interior layout for our families with the large living areas, game room, nice kitchen and bathrooms. Enjoyed the outdoor space of the 2 levels of decks, hot tub and private dock. Incredible view, and we loved getting out on the water for a peaceful paddleboard session. Management quickly and politely handled all our questions and concerns. Definitely recommend!

Great House for a Family Vacation!

This house was perfect for our family Christmas! There were plenty of rooms for everyone and it never felt like we were on top of each other. Unfortunately, due to the time of the year, we couldn't use the pool, but the hot tub was great! We would definitely rent it again!

We will definitely stay here again and highly recommend Belleville to work with! We stayed here with family from out of town for my daughter’s wedding. The hot tub stopped working but the owner was able to get it fixed the very next day! The sunrises were breath taking! There was an iron but no ironing board. There were a few cosmetic issues with toilet paper holders falling off the wall but this comes with normal wear and tear. The shower door on the third floor didn’t have a seal so water got all on the floor and we had to be very careful. The house was well laid out and spacious! It was our first VRBO experience and we will definitely do this again.

Graduation Celebration & Memorial Day

Property was gorgeous! The pictures are pretty but they do not do this home justice. The view is outstanding. The location felt like we were tucked away but we were still very close to amenities. The home is perfect! Beds were comfy and we had plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was stocked with all the necessary cutlery and cookware, not something you see in most rentals. The guide we received upon check in was through and well written. Our hosts were quick to respond to our questions as well! Overall - great stay!

We had a great stay at Sandy Bottom Cove celebrating our parents 50th anniversary! The house was beautiful, honestly even better than the pictures. It was fully stocked, the pool was warm and the kids had a blast swimming & fishing at the dock! The adults especially enjoyed the outdoor spaces with the firepit and the upper deck and fireplace.

Wonderful week!

This was a beautiful house with the perfect number of bedrooms and bathrooms for the 8 of us! We spent most of our time in the pool and/or lake and the paddle boards were a great feature for us! Our grand daughter loved all the wildlife in the neighborhood. It was such a peaceful, bonding time for all of us! I highly recommend the property!

A Family Getaway

We rented this property for an extended family getaway. It was a great spot and beautiful home. This home offered a slew of activities for all to enjoy - the hot tub, the paddleboards, and the pool table. Although we couldn't partake in the pool or firepit because of the weather (too cool and windy), it was ready for us if we had the opportunity. Stores were about a 10 minute drive and easy to locate. My suggestions for an update to the home would be a few extra balnkets and to pave the driveway,

Great time at Sandy Bottom Cove with our group of 12! Perfect weather and great amenities! Had something for everyone and we really enjoyed all aspects. House was exactly as advertised and plenty of space for everyone to be together while not feeling cramped. Deck vibes were perfection overlooking the lake with the fireplace and furniture to really relax. House has lots of wildlife viewing with the woods surrounding - adorable family of deer and a hummingbird and weasel spotting while watching sunrise on the dock! Great indoor space for games and meal conversations. Pool was a hit and we enjoyed some water volleyball games with the provided equipment. Hot tub great too with the cooler evenings. Location next to the boat launch made it easy to unload/load our kayaks from the private beach. Really great location tucked into a cove of the lake and no direct neighbors on either side. Close to pickleball court also! Be sure to listen for the ice cream truck jingle in the evenings so you don’t miss the ice cream boat making its rounds with direct delivery to your dock if summoned over- very fun for the kids and adults! Highly recommend Sandy Bottom Cove and already planning the next trip. Mike was excellent host responding quickly to all questions and inquiries.

Wow!

We stayed at Sandy Bottom for the week of July20-27, 2024. It is a great location on a quiet cove with a nice view of the lake. The pool and hot tub were big hits with the family. Everyone enjoyed learning to paddleboard. We brought some kayaks and the kayak and board expeditions were great fun. We rented a boat and the dock made it very convenient. My 4 year old grandson had a blast catching small fish off the dock. A food lion is only a few miles away which made gathering supplies easy. All in all, probably the best family vacations we have had. The owners are attentive and responsive. The maintenance guy stopped by a couple of times to make sure everything was OK. We will definitely rent Sandy bottom again!!!

Safety Measures

Upon arrival we noticed the absolutely beautiful mountain and lake view behind the property. The interior of the house was somewhat clean due to previous guest trash left near the pool table located in the basement level. Also, myself and guest was concerned about no privacy in the common area due to no curtains on the windows . It is suggestible that smart shades be installed for more privacy in the common area. In addition, the grill was absolutely filthy and was the fire pit didn’t work . However , we still enjoyed our stay and made the best of it.

Serene Sandy Bottom

The location and peace at this time of year were wonderful. Lots of room and mostly kid-friendly. The pool was a wonderful feature and we were able to cheat the autumn and used the heated pool every day. My only negative comment is the cleanliness of the home. Lots of cobwebs everywhere, windows had not been cleaned and the open shelving in the kitchen for glasses and dishes was thick with dust. The fridge was not wiped down very well, and most of the bedding covers and rugs were stained. The cleaning fee that every renter pays should have taken care care of the majority of these issues. Otherwise, it was a nice stay and the company was very easy to work with and accommodated my pre-check-in request which is very appreciated.
