House was perfect with the lakefront property, dock, fire pit, etc. Owner was very responsive if we had any questions. A little bit of TLC and fixing some plumbing issues could make this a top notch property. Regardless, we had a great time and would definitely come back for another stay.

There are positive's and negatives to this rental, unfortunately the negatives overpower anything positive. For the Positives; the lake view is gorgeous, secluded and very tranquil. The private beach area/dock were wonderful for our little ones to play and enjoy the water and allow the older kids to fish. We used the fire pit to make smore's, so fun. It was relaxing on the floating mat that was anchored to the dock. The kitchen overlooking the lake was beautiful. Negatives; it was clear the rental had not been cleaned well at all, despite the high VRBO fee for cleaning/Covid. There was dirt/random junk under all the couches and beds. The previous renters trash on the beach/porch/dirty dishes were left for us to clean up. Although we thought we checked to make sure there was nothing to harm our kids we found a small Tupperware of pills accessible. The kids also found a half of a pill on the horse book in the lower bookcase downstairs, where there were other stuffed animals/kid books. We saw it shortly after and the pill was opened with powder on the book. We didn't know if our kids opened it or if a previous renter did so our guests had to leave immediately to seek medical treatment for their 3 year old, luckily this was our last night there anyways. The pill was determined to be for ADHD/eating disorders, per poison control . There was mold growing on items in downstairs cupboards and we had to wash every kitchen item before using because they were all dirty. Originally it appeared the owner is trying to remodel the place but then became apparent that an amateur handyman tried to fix/rig everything. The motor to the refrigerator was obnoxiously loud the entire time to the point of keeping us awake/unable to relax on main level. The owner claimed we weren't supposed to use it yet it's still listed as 2 fridges on this listing. The stick on carpet on the stairs were just laying on the stairs not secured at all. 2 of our little ones and my husband fell down stairs as they slipped on them. There was at least one mouse within the home which we saw scurry about. The owner is defensive, unprofessional, and rude. I sent her the above positives/negatives & she immediately blamed us for all the issues. She claimed she told me to call her immediately with issues, she did not, only a handwritten note in kitchen says to. She even called to yell at me! We were there to relax, all the cosmetic things were overlooked until the pill. We will NEVER be back!!!

The pros: The property owner was great to work with and very responsive. The outside private beach area was great to have. We really enjoyed the boat house and lake. The house is located close to restaurants. The cons: There are obvious repairs that needed to be completed inside the home. The house also really needs to be cleaned better. This was my first time renting in lake Anna and I didn't know there wasn't trash service. I had to take all of our trash to a transfer station. We were checking out on a Sunday and the place did not open until 10. Just something to keep in mind for future renters.

We just had a beautiful family vacation. The owners were easily contacted with any questions we had and really tried to make sure everything was taken care of

Lots of outdoor fun swimming and fishing on private beach and pier. A little disappointed that the advertised water trampoline and paddle boat were not there. Also a couple indoor arcade games weren't working. The landlord did communicate well however, there are some issues that folks mentioned in previous reviews that still exist with the house. We didn't allow any of the issues to prevent us having a good time. The location is great and the view beautiful and relaxing.

Great getaway, owner was great with questions, we enjoyed our stay. Room for improvement on upkeep, ceiling had a small leak, upper deck was showing its age, lots of bugs, but we made the most of our stay and had a good time with family and kids.

Easy hassle fee

This is the 2nd time we have stayed here and both times have been great. The house is located in a quiet little cove with a beautiful 2 story dock and private beach. There is also a boat ramp right next to the property which is a giant plus. The house has plenty of sleeping space and a lot of updated amenities. Would definitely recommend this property!

This lake house has gorgeous views of Lake Anna, tons of bedrooms and beds, and a spacious kitchen. The living room is small but the game room downstairs is where you'll spend most of your time when indoors. I'm sure the property really shines in the summer when you can enjoy the water. We came for a small NYE gathering and had a nice time.

We really enjoyed the private beach, dock and fire pit. We brought our own kayaks. We all also enjoyed the game room downstairs. We will go back again!!

Located directly on Lake Anna , this house was perfect for our family getaway. The turning leaves were beautiful and our family enjoyed playing games, making campfires and just taking in the gorgeous views. The host was very communicative and helpful. We look forward to returning!

Great outdoor amenities! Enjoyed the beac h area and fire pit! We rented a pontoon boat for the weekend and enjoyed every moment! House was comfortable and downstairs was perfect for entertaining kids and adults with football and other great games!

The house was perfect for a family get away at the lake. Rustic enough to make it feel like you were at a lake house, clean enough with plenty of things to do to make it enjoyable for everyone. There were a few things we would bring on the front end if we did it again (trash bags, extra toilet paper, plastic cups/paper plates, paper towels etc.). Overall, a wonderful experience we would book again.

I would like to start with a positive. The time spent outdoors by the fire pit, beach area, and dock/boat house totally made the trip. One of the best outdoor experiences I have had at Lake Anna. I wish I could say the same for the rest of our stay, but I cannot. While the cleaning service was supposed to have just left the property, there were a lot of mouse droppings on and between the master bedroom comforter and mattress. Obviously not cleaned (a woman’s headband was also on the mattress) and very disgusting. We had to put our sheets on top of the comforter and sleep with towels as blankets as the stack of blankets in the closet at that point did not seems so enticing. There were also mouse droppings throughout the house, in the corners of the bedrooms, and in the basement. My sons were downstairs when a mouse came out from under the couch. On a different night, my wife and I were at the kitchen table eating dinner when we saw a mouse come from beside the oven and go into the pan of our remaining dinner food sitting on the range top. There are broken fixtures and appliances. Even though all basically worked enough, I expected for such an expensive property to have a good clean experience, not broken chandeliers, an oven leaning forward because it no longer has front legs, a bent main entrance door that does not close well nor keep the bugs out (nor provide much of a sense of security), and a refrigerator with a messed up compressor that was very loud and didn't keep our food as cold as it should. There is also a stockpile of old appliances, tools, gas tanks, and trash under the decks of the house on both sides, adding to the junkiness and low-quality feeling. Needless to say, we were pretty grossed out by the house. Circling back to the positive, I will say that the beach area is somewhat unique to this property and was a huge part of why my kids loved Lake Anna so much. They also really loved the floating platform the owner had anchored in the water to the side of the dock. We did appreciate, and greatly enjoy, the provisions for water activities, and the firepit by the beach area.

Property is not worth the nightly rate charged. Property is run down and many things in the house are loose or broken. The deck and dock areas need to be cleaned, most of the rafts and toys were not usable because they were so dirty.

We loved everything about the house and it’s all open and the entire house over looks the lake. The host was wonderful and we will be back next year.

Not what you would expect for a house that cost as much as this one did a night, probably half of that would make sense. We stayed at a house that was past the wake zone by the cove before and it was less than half of what we paid for this, but 100% better quality. This house is old, but in the process of being updated (I think), there was a lot of trash outside that would lead to that assumption. We could not figure out how to turn on the lights at the boat house, even after asking. The boat house had more spiders than could be counted. I was bit, twice, and will probably have to get them looked at by a doctor. We were required to bring our own sheets, take trash when we left, and put away all dishes, all ok, but made us think that there was no house cleaning between guests. House was very dirty, to include blankets, and there was no water pressure and a struggle to shower. Dryer took three cycles to get towels from wet to damp, the belt was slipping and made for a great noise after a day on the lake. Kitchen is nice, and seems to have been updated. Had to reset wireless router numerous times during stay to allow for internet connection. There were ants in the basement. We were harassed when getting our boat out of the water. I literally pulled it out of the water and a lady approached me to ask if I was going to lock the gate. Demanded I answered her questions because she lived in that community. Very unfortunate experience and the lesson learned is to not rent without better pictures of the house. Normally would not have, but every house on the lake was rented when we could go. Plan early and see pictures of what you are renting.
