Live waterfront listings in Hardy, with the local context Paul teaches in the Definitive Guide.
Where Hardy sits
Hardy sits on the Franklin County side of Smith Mountain Lake, on the western side of the Roanoke River channel — the closest part of the lake to Roanoke, which makes it a favorite for buyers who want lake life within an easy commute of the city. Around Hardy you'll find established waterfront neighborhoods on the main channel and quieter coves, with the Westlake shopping corridor and Bridgewater Plaza a short drive away for groceries, dining, and errands.
