The show stopper is the view of the lake the moment you enter the front door. The quiet location, large deck and jacuzzi made the visit very relaxing.

Wedding Guests loved it!

I had 11 guests staying there and they all said it was great! There were enough beds, they loved all the provided activities and the location was beautiful. No one was from the area, they are all from cities across the country so it was a nice break. The only issue was the neighbors, they were extremely rude.

Relaxing Weekend

This was the second time my husband and I spent our anniversary weekend at this lovely spot. We enjoyed it so much the first time, we came back. The renovations are wonderful! We loved just sitting on the spacious deck with our coffee and watching the boats go by on the lake. Our pups loved the walk down to the water. After cooking our favorite meals in the new kitchen, the hot tub was a nice treat. Thank you so much for another beautiful anniversary we.

Great house

Spacious and wonderful upgrades. Love, love the screened in porch just wish it was on the back. Lights in yard didn’t work. Apparently there is a mouse in there somewhere as there is little droppings in the bottom oven drawer. Had some difficulty cooking with the stainless steel pans as they stuck quite a bit. Deck was lovely but hot. The walk down to the water wasn’t bad but the walk back is steep. My mom couldn’t make it or she wouldn’t have made it back up the hill. Suggest trimming the bushes on the end of the yard so you can see more of the water and putting in a path on the side yard to avoid the mud by the gate to the road.

Great Getaway

We loved the location, the amenities, the cleanliness and overall quietness. Our son and his high school band were one of 10 bands nationwide invited to play/compete at George Mason University before the US Army Band Concert. We thought it would be more accommodating to stay here instead of separate hotel rooms and we couldn't have asked for a better place. With our usual luck, the weather wasn't the greatest but we still had a great time. We all agreed we should return in the summer to really enjoy Lake Anna and the surrounding areas. Thank you for a great place!

Amazing outdoor spaces with a view of the lake

The star of this home is definitely the beautiful screened-in porch and the spacious deck. The home itself was clean and comfortable. We appreciated that there was a large enough dining table to accommodate everyone in our party (great for playing board games and sharing meals). The firepit is another highlight. The dock is not too far from the house and was easy to access and launch our kayak from. The only complaint was that the supplies were a bit spartan (i.e. we had trouble finding salt in the kitchen and extra rolls of toilet paper in the bathroom). Overall, we had a very pleasant stay and would be happy to go back.

Great Lakefront home

Family and friends had a short getaway for a few days. I brought my kayak, but it was also nice the home provided two small kayaks so that everyone could enjoy being on the lake. Having a paved driveway down to the water was very helpful. At night we enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub. Everyone enjoyed the screened in porch where we ate, played cards and sitting enjoying the view. The home was clean and provided everything we needed. The dog also enjoyed lounging on the outdoor deck. The home was very private on the wooded lot, couldn’t even see any other homes through the trees. I would come back again.

Quiet, Comfortable, and Clean

We stayed 3 nights at this wonderful rental, and it exceeded expectations. Older reviews are prior to it being purchased by current owners, and they have obviously made many improvements and added home amenities that really made our stay fun. View is beautiful, deck is large and right off main living room; it also has a gate on the stairs leading down to the fire pit and hot tub. Many board games, kayaks, water tubes, corn hole, darts - all great amenities to enhance your time on the lake. Screened in patio off the kitchen is awesome. Kitchen is decently equipped if you enjoy cooking (which we cooked every night we stayed here). Large dining room table that can comfortably seat 6-8. Received communication from a real person upon arrival to report any questions or concerns during our stay.

Great location great view

The house is in a great location in the northern part of the lake in a cove. The cove was perfect for kayaking and SUP out i to the lake. The kiddos enjoyed cannon balls off the boat deck. The view was fantastic, though the trees were a bit over grown to see the lake from the entire part of the deck. The house could use some electrical upgrades because every time we tried to plug in the electric grill it would trip the breaker, so no grill. We called vacasa and they said to use our own charcoal grill if we had one. The inside was clean and well stocked. Overall fantastic with the exception of the grill. We would go back!

Great house, negative experience

The house was nice. Felt small but served its purpose. Maintenance came to fix the lights that fell due to weather. The lights fell and shattered in the yard. There was broken glass everywhere. When I reached out, I was told "no" and that maintenance picked it up. I found glass everyday the rest of the stay. It was dangerous and it wasn’t reassuring being told I’m wrong when I sent pictures of the glass.

It was Ok

The good: great location, great water access and dock, hot tub,deck and nice rooms. The bad: hardly anything to use in the kitchen (that you really need- lots of unnecessary extra utensils and cups) Spare room in garage was not cleaned or made up. Linens were spread all over the eoom. We didnt know if they had been cleaned. The heat was turned off so the inside of the house was 56 degrees when we arrived. Took several hours for it to warm up. Wrong access code to get in and the spare keys were not in the lock box. There was mold in the shower and shower doors.

Great location-desperately needs a kitchen re-haul

Location, outside area, loft above the garage, garage/play space, bathrooms, deck, all great spaces. Living room big enough, not enough couch space and chairs to hang out. WiFi/internet not dependable-local VRBO rep, had someone come out a few days later to upgrade. Leaving the worst for last- the kitchen. Others have already said the kitchen needs a gut job. It is from the ‘70’s, so are the pots/pans/utensils. Dishwasher, although newer, is not bolted to anything, so it slides out when trying to open it. Owners are probably updating as they go. Bathroom sinks and floors are new, showers are not. Although the dock is shared, neighbors and renters we met were nice. Cove is deep, great if you bring your boat. Lots of flys and ants, in the kitchen, cabinets have a sticky smelly residue, from not cleaning them more than likely. If the kitchen was redone and extra seating was added in the living room, would consider renting again.

Buyer Beware

Lovely green lawn doesn't exist. It is rather an acorn covered dirt yard. Path to dockside requires you to walk down hill over roots then you get to a deck with light coating of slime from overhanging trees. Don't slip on it 'cause you'll be in the water ! Hot tub was great as was the master bedroom. My review was probably influenced by horrible weather.

Amazing Lake Property

My family throughly enjoyed our long weekend stay. So many things to do just around the property. They had a list of anything you may have questions and had all the necessities in the kitchen. To top things off they were super to work with when my daughter left her precious stuffie at the rental and she is now reunited with it.

Beautiful Cozy Get-Away

We loved everything about this place! First, it is so much cozier than the pictures show. The furniture and bed was so comfortable. The view from the deck was peaceful and relaxing. It’s a short, convenient walk to the water, which we and our dogs loved! We cooked all our meals here, as we just wanted to get away from everything and spend some time pampering our pets. This spot has everything we were hoping for! Thank you for a perfect weekend.
