SMITH MOUNTAIN LAKE INFO
A beautiful mountain community located halfway between the Northeast and the Southeast, Smith Mountain Lake is the ideal place for your next waterfront lot or home and dock. Formed in the mid-1960s when the Appalachian Power Company built the hydroelectric dam at the base of Smith Mountain, today Smith Mountain Lake is home to over 20,000 permanent residents. A growing community that is less than a day’s drive from both Maine and Florida, residents often say, “Living here is like being on a permanent vacation.”
