    Lovely home and beautiful bathroom in master bedroom. Boat launch was very convenient as we took our pontoon boat there.

    Amazing spot on the lake! We loved having our coffee on the back porch overlooking the lake, and gazing at the stars at night from our private dock. We used the kayak a few times but also brought floats so we could paddle around and swim from the dock. The hot tub was such a treat, but the real cherry on top was the boat launch! It was awesome to be able to put our boat in so easily and have easy access to it throughout the weekend. We're pretty familiar with Lake Anna but the host kindly left recommendations for food with travel estimates by boat or car, which was helpful! The rooms were lovely, especially the master, and we used the grill a few times for meals. Overall, we couldn't have been happier and are already discussing our next trip!

    What a great place to stay for a short weekend getaway. The house is right by the shore of Lake Anna. The views are amazing and there is even a dock for water access. The house is charming, clean, and well provisioned. We had a nice time and enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

    Had a great few days relaxing and fishing. The home was cozy. The fire pit and hot tub were highlights for the teenagers.

    We checked in Sunday, December 29 and stayed thru January 2.outside lighting was very poor. It was 5:30 in the evening and very difficult to see where we were in the driveway or the front of the property. Right when you open the front door you are smacked in the face with a musty, stale smell and overwhelming smell of cat pee. We travelled as professionals in our early 50’swith two small dogs and quickly opened every door and window to help with the odors. We unloaded the car and hoped the fresh air would help but little improvement. Then I messaged the owner on VRBO to make him aware of the intolerable conditions and the response was to blame our 3 and 5 year old dogs that had been on the property no more than an hour and that ppl who just checked out said nothing. (Mean while the neighbors told us no one had stayed there in weeks)The odor was so bad we could not close the doors or windows the entire stay. The second night with all doors and windows open we were able to sleep in primary with a belt through the handles of sliders as our lock so we could sleep without the horrible smell. The home and furnishings are very dated and there is old food in the cabinets that the owners never cleaned out and left for years of past renters. The hot tub does not go above 85 so another thing we could not enjoy during our stay. The grill had 2 empty propane tanks and grates were rotted through and not usable. Overall very unpleasant stay.

    For us, this was a little piece of heaven. The house was beautiful, spacious, and clean. It had everything we needed as far as cooking utensils, pots and pans, and towels and wash cloths. The location was nice and quiet, about 10-15 minutes away from restaurants, a gas station, and the Lake Anna State Park. The dock was very nice! The boat traffic on the water was very respectful and friendly. The views from the house and the dock were beautiful and the catfish were biting all day and night! We hope to stay again next year!
