Featured reviews
Worth viewing! Especially for the screenplay and cast. Builds up in a nostalgic cadence with excellent pathos and real to life emotional moments. Virtues of a long, dedicated, loving marriage and close family connection but never void of the growing pains facing us as a result of pop culture influences and success driven societal meritocratic expectations. But always weaving throughout an abundance of welcoming loyalties!
Sisters unwind a complicated relationship together while facing overwhelming challenges and circumstances.
Truly a poignant story for any family. Highly recommended! And Enjoying script!

This movie is a great family movie that delves into parent/child relationships. This movie explores the return of a woman to her hometown and the conflicts she faces within herself about her decision to leave home and explore the world as a young adult. She deals with grief, love, and her perception of relationships and the world around her throughout the movie. The actors all did a great job, and this one does pull at the heartstrings. I highly recommend this one. Well worth watching. James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 3/16/2021
This is a heartwarming Hallmark film about a family torn apart and reunites after the father dies from an accident. The scenery of the lake was spectacular and the acting was excellent. You could really relate to each of their parts.
The only problem I had with the film was the loud music playing constantly in the background. Music is supposed to be in the background, so you can hear each word clearly. Now Hallmark has the music louder than the speaking and continuous. It is like going to a concert and a lecture at the same time and trying to give attention to each equally. Years ago the classic films did not have music when there was speaking unless it was at a climatic point in the movie. I love Hallmark movies, but if I can't hear it clearly, I turn it off half way through the movie. My family and I all have perfect hearing, so it has nothing to do with that. It just annoys all of us and is very disappointing.

This movie has it all romance, drama, comedy and a great story. You shed tears to turn around 2 seconds later and crack up laughing. The writer of this film was nothing but sure genius and I am sad he passed away. Once again we lose a great talent before his masterpiece in Lake Effects can woo the world. This is a must see movie for men and women. A chick flick that even a man can enjoy! This film houses Smith Mountain Lake at it's best. The same lake that was in What About Bob is now brought to camera with it's real name! Enjoy all of the beautiful scenic shots. Kick back and just feel like your sitting at home. This movie is a roller coaster of emotions that will leave you applauding with a smile.
Nice to see this lake in Virginia and so many familiar actors. Story about small town values. Enjoyable and slightly underrated.

- Crazy creditsThere are two scenes during the first part of the end credits. The first one has the TV show guy asking women about the lake monster. The second one has Sara (Scottie Thompson) again being asked for directions by the same man who stopped on the side of the road when Sara arrived.
