INSIDER'S TIPS TO THE LAKE

Crazy Horse Marina
ANDIE GIBSON

There's room on the lake for many different activities.

Chris Bechtler, Manager
Crazy Horse Marina
In your opinion, what makes Smith
Mountain Lake so special?
The cleanliness of the lake and the views. It
truly is the "Jewel of the Blue Ridge."

What makes SML a great spot for
boating?
It's large enough to explore. You're not
confined to one basin. You've got all these
different coves and rivers with beautiful
homes, parks, marinas, restaurants and
more. There's room for people to fish, water
ski, wakeboard and sail. Smith Mountain
Lake is able to cater to all of them.

What's your favorite event at SML?
There are two that I would mention. Wake
the World is a charitable event hosted by
Crazy Horse that provides water sports
opportunities to disadvantaged kids. And
then the other is Pirate Days because, even

as adults, we get to play like kids. I mean
what's not to love about dressing up like a
pirate?

What's your favorite part about
working at SML?
The sense of community among the

businesses. It's more of a sense of
cooperation rather than competition.
Other places where I've worked it's been
very cut-throat, but here it's not that way,
probably because of the size of the boating
community. There are more than enough
customers for everyone.
