[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. These lakes look amazing. I am going to make a future vacation list.

I was actually looking for something we could drive to. I don’t think we will be flying for a while.[/quote]

I’d you are in VA then smith mountain lake isn’t bad if you have a boat. I don’t so it’s not amazing as you are pretty limited to just your lake house. There’s a few resorts where you can rent stuff but it isn’t my fav but it isn’t terribly far.

One that I love but is currently closed for rentals until things open up is Douthat State Park. I love their cabins! There’s a number of lovely state parks with nice cabins.Its not luxurious but we thought it was pretty romantic, the beach and view are really nice, the little restaurant is nice, and you can get lemonade slushies, sit in the shade and read while the kids play on the beach Soo it works!! I actually might do that this summer.[/quote]

We live in NVA and do not have a boat.

I was just googling closest lakes to us and there is a lake(s) in Reston. There are some nice lake houses. The houses looked cute and pics had boats on the lake. Not sure if there were any fish. DH was not excited about renting a lake house in Reston.[/quote]

I think I’ve been to that one. I would honestly look a little farther. There’s lots of little lakes in Virginia (all man-made). Lake Anna would be even closer to you than Douthat and you could rent a private cabin. Honestly though, check out the state parks. Many have lakes and would work for a simple trip. Now that
I wrote about Douthat, honestly I think we will just try to go there vs smoky mountains....I don’t want to be so far that i burden someone else’s health system this year but maybe things will improve
Enough that isn’t an issue.[/quote]
