Property details

Escape to Tigua's Sunrise, a modern, single-story waterfront home on a calm, deep-water cove of Lewis Smith Lake. Perfect for families and friends, this pet-friendly retreat comfortably sleeps 8. Enjoy a huge deck, fire pit, private dock, and kayaks. A peaceful, low-traffic oasis for fishing, swimming, and relaxing.

Welcome to Tigua’s Sunrise, by 2 Poochies Properties, a single story lakefront home on Lewis Smith Lake overlooking a peaceful deep water cove in one of the most serene areas of the lake. Wake to golden sunrises shimmering across calm water and settle into a vacation centered on family time, steady fishing, and relaxed lake living.

Tigua is our newest pooch, rescued from the streets of Antigua when she was just 4 weeks old. Like the rising sun, she inspires us with her energy, hope and optimism each new day and the property aims to inject you with this attitude.

The spacious primary suite features a king bed, Roku TV, dedicated workspace, dressers, nightstands, and large shuttered windows that fill the room with natural light. The en suite bath includes a walk in shower, sunken tub, and a generous walk in closet.

The main living room is designed for gathering, with a large reclining sectional, a comfortable reclining chair, and a 68 inch Roku TV. Books and games for all ages are stocked for evenings indoors. All TVs include Roku with high speed 1 GB internet and access to more than 75 live channels, with the ability to log into your personal streaming accounts for seamless entertainment.

Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for families. One guest room offers a queen bed, Roku TV, dresser, and walk in closet. The bunk room includes two bunk beds, storage chests, bean bag chairs, and its own walk in closet, making it an ideal space for kids. A centrally located guest bath features a shower and tub combination, vanity with storage, and a nearby linen closet.

The well stocked kitchen offers functional counter space, a center island with seating, full size appliances, and a dedicated coffee station. The adjacent dining table seats six comfortably. A separate laundry room includes a large capacity washer and dryer with supplies provided for your convenience.

Step outside to the expansive composite deck with multiple seating areas for dining and lounging. A gazebo with cooling fan provides shade for entertaining, and beneath it you will find an eight seat fire table and propane grill ready for evening meals. A custom competition size cornhole set adds family friendly fun. A fully fenced yard offers added security for children and pets, and a large firepit area overlooks the lake with firewood provided.

The private dock provides direct access to deep water fishing and swimming. Guests may enjoy an optional fishing pontoon available as a separate rental. This boat is set up for relaxed cruising and serious fishing, and towing is not permitted, keeping the experience focused on calm days and casting lines. Life jackets for guests and dogs are available.

Tigua’s Sunrise is designed for families who value early mornings on the water, full afternoons of fishing, and quiet evenings under the stars. Settle in, cast a line, and experience the peaceful rhythm of Smith Lake.

Guests will have private and exclusive access to the entire single-story home, the fenced yard, the expansive deck, and the private dock with a swim platform. Enjoy a seamless and private stay with your own entrance and dedicated parking.

Stairs to Dock: Please be advised that reaching the private dock requires descending a switchback staircase with 80 total steps. There are two benches along the path for resting and enjoying the scenic view.

Water Activities: The dock includes a swim platform, an extra boat slip, and a jet ski port for your own watercraft. Two single-person kayaks are provided for complimentary guest use.

Optional Rentals: A new 22-foot Sun Tracker pontoon boat and a 12.5-foot tandem fishing kayak are also available to rent for an additional fee. Please inquire for details. Life jackets available in bunkroom closet.

Loved TS so much. It was luxurious yet incredibly comfortable. Everything we needed was at our fingertips. Tim has it all covered. We booked the weekend of the tropical storm. Unfortunately we decided to leave Carl the dog at home due to the weather. Bringing the dog was the main reason for booking here but we both said it was one of our favorite rentals on Smith Lake and we will definitely book here again. First night was raining but the sofa and bedding was so comfortable we didn’t even care. Movie 🍿 night. The rest of the weekend was perfect weather. Took advantage of the kayaks and went swimming and paddling around the cove. The walk to the dock is not as bad as others have suggested. We have experienced much steeper and long walks to the dock on other homes. Peaceful, comfortable and convenient we highly recommend staying here, dog or no dog. Thanks Tim

We always travel with our dog LillyRose so we are always looking for pet-friendly places. Tim’s property was just that and much more. The fenced-in area was perfect and LillyRose entertained herself for hours dropping her ball and running down to get it. You can tell they put a lot of their heart into the property. The location was perfect and peaceful. This was our first time on Smith Lake. We rented the boat and explored the lake. I wish we could have stayed longer but will definitely be back. I want to check out Tim’s other locations!
