My family has been hanging out at this dock for decades. It is a «must do» if you are visiting Smith Mt. Lake. You can gas up the boat, grab a bite and watch the carp. The owners added a partial glass floor in the store, which allows an interesting view underneath. The inventory is simple but it will get you through a boat ride: gator aid, soda, bottle water, candy, pop sickles or home made sandwiches. The employees are friendly. They will attend to the gas while you make store purchases or visit the bathroom. The carp love popcorn and peanut butter. The store sells both. We love throwing popcorn in the water and taking pictures of all the puckering fish mouths. For those brave souls who want an interesting experience, you can put peanut butter on your fingers or toes. The carp will«kiss» your toe while getting the peanut butter. It doesn’t hurt but it is unusual. Picture vacuuming your foot while getting gummed by a fish. They are friendly and harmless. I settle for the bottom of my toe. My cousin will lather up his entire foot in peanut butter. It isn’t every day that you can say a carp sucked on your toe. For those less adventurous, you can sit above the dock and watch the fish. Snacks are pricier but you are in the middle of the lake. Bonus points for the plastic palm trees.

Great service! Yummy breakfast and lunch. The best on the lake. Pet carp can’t be missed. We love Smith Mountain Dock. Go for a visit and gas up your boat or jet ski. Grab some lunch. Very fun! Our favorite always at the lake.
