Thank you so much for such a great place to stay for our wedding weekend! The manager was so accommodating and kind.

We had a wonderful stay with all 11 of us. Beautiful property on the lake with a boat dock. Plenty of bedrooms for everyone. And we loved the extra kitchen and living area downstairs. That made It great for the kids Fantastic part of the lake. Not a lot of boat traffic. We would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay in Shady Oaks! It was our family of 9 ranging in age from 6 to 78 years old. The house was in fantastic condition. The layout is great. There are great views of the lake from the house. The house was well stocked with kitchen items, games, etc. We enjoyed eating and sitting out on the upper deck. The dock area was large and well laid out with a shaded area and sunny area. We enjoyed the stand up paddle boards, kayak, and assortment of floats. Was a lovely house!

This house exceeding our expectations in many ways. From the cleanliness, decor, space, and view made for a perfect family vacation. The icing on the cake was the extremely prompt and communicative property manager, Travis. We understand that sometimes a description of a vacation rental home and the amenities can be very subjective. For example, we like to cook most of our meals and this kitchen had, what we consider, an actual fully stocked kitchen! Other things that we loved was having multiple refrigerators/2 kitchen areas, indoor and outdoor dining space (with lots of citronella candles if needed), two living spaces, a game room, a space to play cards, poker, board games, plenty of bathrooms, a dock and boat house space for our boat, paddle boards, and a kayak to use. We really had a great week! Some things to mention if you've never been to a lake house and so you what normal expectations are that can't really be avoided: misquotes, spiders, spider webs, bugs; we recommend keeping all the outside lights off at night if you're going to be out, otherwise plan for a house full of misquotes. Expect the path down to the dock and deck to be spider webbed by morning if you've clear the area of webs. To get to the dock/boat house, they have added steps and railing which is probably nicer and safer than what the pictures show. 51 concrete/man-made steps that lead to 15 wooden, manufactured steps. These got muddy and slick with rain. We would not hesitate renting again!

We had a friends weekend getaway here recently. The home was Clean, specious, plenty of natural light and well stocked with amenities and supplies to support several families. All in all, our entire group loved the house and attached dock on the lake. We will definitely consider staying here again with our families.

Everything was as advertised

The property is lovely, quiet, and secluded among mature trees on a hill directly above the lake. It is one of the more well-stocked lake houses we have rented, having nearly everything other than groceries one would find in one's home. It is a newer property, very clean and well-maintained. The owner was very responsive relative to a minor issue, which was resolved quickly. It is about 15 minutes from any store, restaurant, etc., which we did not mind, but others might. It has only satellite internet service, which was a little slow and spotty, particularly in stormy weather, and two bars of cellular phone service, which we occasionally used as hotspots in lieu of interrupted internet service. Overall, however, it is perfect if you're looking for a roomy, serene, well-supplied lakefront house in a private location.

Some girlfriends and I spent a long weekend at this home and had a great experience. There was a lot of space for everyone to feel comfortable and have their own privacy, but the communal areas allowed for a great feeling of togetherness. The home was clean, the listing was accurate, and it was an easy check in/out process. We would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking for a place to stay in Lake Anna!
