lots of room, amenities

Big house - we had 17 people, not crowded. Lots of games in the basement: shuffleboard, foosball, ping-pong, pool ... Lake access is very good, although it's a little hike down the hill.

Overall this is a good place, but definitely has some issues. We had trouble with a toilet and the dishwashers. Management response was quick and helpful. It's a nice location on the lake and is close to the grocery and some breweries.

Family get together

We rented 2 homes next to each other. Both homes compliment each other. The house is a perfect location on the lake and this house comes with a working hot tub and kayaks to play in the lake.

Good house for a large group.

Overall, a good place for family get together. Still needs attention to seriously overgrown foliage blocking the view of the lake from the deck, as well as inadequate hand railings on the steps from the deck to the yard. These items have been reported after prior stays in previous years.

New Years in Style at the Lake

We had a great trip to the Great Escape at Lake Anna this winter for new years! 5 couples and the accompanying army of children all had plenty to do with the amenities and toys and space to roam. Love it and hope to return in the future!

Huge Home on the water!

This home is very well laid out for a large number of people. The kitchen is fantastic! Many games (such as ping pong, etc) and huge deck with great views! The home shows a tad bit of wear from renting, but nothing to keep you from wanting to rent this place. Really great for large number of people.

Roomy house, great dock

Our large extended family enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean and roomy. Some minor problems with uncomfortable furniture and broken patio furniture didn't keep us from having a great time. The house is well-located on the lake, with plenty of smooth water for boating and skiing. A grocery store is 5 minutes away. The advertised small beach is really a sand box, but that was okay. We have booked for next summer.

Spacious House - Great for Friends Weekend

We stayed with several families and small children and found the house suited our needs. Very spacious and well laid out with room for everyone to spread out but also come together in the TV and play rooms as well as the spacious kitchen. Access to the lake was great and we appreciated the kayaks that gave us a chance to get out on the water. There were some quirks with the furniture and a couple missing kitchen items that would have come in handy but overall would recommend and would return!

Eagles Nest is a great fit for a large group

The house is beautiful, spacious (we joked that we needed ground transportation just to get from one side of the kitchen to the other), and relatively clean; it is not beat up or abused. It worked well for our extended family with 12 adults and 11 kids (ages 5 to 16). Furniture and beds are in good shape and inviting. The game room was well received by kids and adults, including some legacy video games! The deck is expansive and a great hangout especially in the mornings (morning sun before the temps get too hot) and evenings (before it gets too buggy out, but after the sun has dipped behind the house), with two nice gas grills and ample soft seating. The hot tub was clean and nice. The dock is really a great place to hang out (sun and shade areas available with ample seating and tables), the water is deep enough for kids to have fun but still be able to touch, and the bottom is not all slimy (bring water shoes as the rocks can be a little hard on bare feet). There's a private boat launch labeled for the "community owners and guests" immediately adjacent to the Great Escape property (inquire in advance about access since it's locked). The house is located very close to a Food Lion and multiple restaurants.

Good house for multi-family lake trip

This was a large house located directly on the lake. Check-in process was easy, the house was clean, and, The cleanup steps to check out were minimal. It does look like the bedroom configuration was a little different than what we expected - with only two bedrooms in the basement, three on the main floor, and four bedrooms on the upper level. Still a total of nine bedrooms, so it all worked out fine. All in all, this was a good house to rent for a large family lake trip.

Plenty of room and comfortable

The kitchen was great for 9 people. Comfortable furnishings. Close to a cidery and wineries. Beautiful view. The WiFi was not accessible, only the TV in the large room would work and several light bulbs were out. I offer these observations for improvements. Overall it was lovely and worth a visit if you are looking to go to Lake Anna.

Our Family Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful time at Lake Anna. The property was perfect for our large family of 15 adults and 2 children. There was plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable and the children loved playing pool, basketball and ping pong along with games and puzzles. The house was clean and well stocked with everything we needed to prepare dinners for 17 people. Having 2 dishwashers was incredible! Due to the beautiful fall weather, we were able to relax around the gorgeous fire pit and view of the lake. The location is close to many activities and outdoor activities. We loved the house and location.

Great weekend

We had our family reunion at The Great Escape. Beautiful home, plenty of room for everyone. A couple of suggestions: Pressure wash the exterior, the mildew is not attractive. Perform maintenance on the bathrooms. Some toilets were non functional. It's an expensive rental and our group expected better.

Family stay

We enjoyed our stay. The layout is great for little children. I do think it should be a little cleaner and it sure would be nice if there would be more tea towels and dishrags. 1 dish rag and 2 towels doesn’t cut it for doing a lot of cooking all weekend. Also the bath towels and wash cloths. We had 3 sets total in our room for my husband and I for staying 3 nights. We don’t mind reusing our towels but a wash cloth??? Thankfully we could do laundry. Despite all that we still enjoyed our stay and hopefully these tips will get some response.
