Area Attractions

In addition to boating, swimming, and fishing along Smith Mountain Lake's 500-mile scenic shoreline, there are endless "pockets of discovery" within a short drive...

Click here for more information on the proposed Sweetwater Amphitheater, just minutes from Mariners Landing Resort Community and Conference Center.

Enjoy an excursion to Smith Mountain Lake State Park for seasonal concerts, hiking trails, and educational classes. Consider a step back in time to a pre-Civil War tobacco farm and birthplace of a great African American educator at the Booker T. Washington National Monument. While on Route 122, drive just a short distance to the National D-Day Memorial in Bedford. This stunning monument to the invasion of Normandy in WWII is a must see.

How about an afternoon of wine tasting?  Enjoy overnight accommodations at Mariners Landing plus tours of five of the Smith Mountain Lake region’s most popular wineries.  Hickory Hill, Peaks of Otter, Savoy-Lee, Leo Grande, and White Rock Wineries are open seasonally and by appointment for self-guided or group tours.  If you are interested in a self-guided tour, please make sure you call in advance to ensure availability.  For group tours hosted by Mariners Landing, please make sure you schedule your tour in advance with the front desk before check in or at least two hours in advance upon arrival.  More information on the Bedford Wine Trail may be found at www.bedfordwinetrail.com or by calling the Mariners Landing front desk at 540-297-4900. 

Maybe a tour through the Scenic Peaks of Otter along the Blue Ridge Parkway? Their winery and orchard are a perfect complement to the breathtaking mountain views. Also along the Parkway is Explore Park, a 1,300-acre tribute to frontier life in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

A shopping adventure to Bridgewater Plaza is always a delight. The quaint shops and restaurants offer unique Lake goods and services. For the power shopper, trek to Roanoke's Valley View Mall or Lynchburg's River Ridge Mall. Both are within 45 minutes. While in the Lynchburg area, consider visiting Thomas Jefferson's summer home and architectural gem, Poplar Forest. In Roanoke, spend time with art, history, theatre, and science at Center in the Square or romp with tigers, snakes, prairie dogs, and more at the Mill Mountain Zoo.

But you don't necessarily have to travel far for fun and excitement. Smith Mountain Lake has dozens of seasonal festivals and events for all ages! Wakeboarding Tournaments, The Poker Run, July 4th Fireworks, Home Tour, Wine Festival, Fall Festival, Chili Cook-Off, Business Expo...the list is endless.
