If you're up early you might see deer drinking on the far shore to the west. If you're up late, you might hear coyotes at the pond to the east. With the peaceful privacy Smiley Lake offers and the many amenities and spacious accommodations of Smiley Haven, your vacation will be relaxing, fun and rejuvenating!
