we loved the yard the house the huge trees and shade yet still had a great water view. We loved all the various decks, the screen porch, the canoe and dock and paddle boards and flotation devices. The Pac-Man machine was fun and ping-pong is always a winner we love the vaulted ceilings in every room. We would certainly rent this house again and loved Lake Anna. There was a very good boat rental just a mile away at the cove called shipwreck boat rentals and we rented up pontoon boat on two different days having a ton of fun exploring the lake .

Our family was excited to take a trip to the lake with grandma, aunt and cousins to kick off the summer! We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the lake and the house. We spent most of our time on the lake and there were plenty of activities available both indoors and outdoors. The host provides equipment to enjoy in the water if you don't want to worry about bringing your own. That being said, I would highly recommend bringing a pop up tent to provide shade on the dock come the afternoon. The kids enjoyed time on the decks and playing ping pong and Pac Man to get a break from the heat and sun. We spent time around the fire pit every night to end our days. While some amenities are outdated, the house was comfortable and you are definitely paying for the lakefront and beautiful location amongst the trees. The only other recommendations I would provide are to bring plenty of drinking water due to the taste and to not use the washer due to the possibility of rust stains from the water.

Although this property is on the public side of the lake, the location was quiet and ideal, minutes from the Cove by boat or car. The property itself is a little dated, with some updates needed. However, we had a wonderful time and enjoyed the views and amenities thoroughly. We would highly recommend this property due to the location, amenities and size.

This home has everything you could possibly need for a long weekend away, It is peaceful and has beautiful views. We spent the long weekend kayaking and canoeing. Evenings were spent around the large dining room table then relaxing on the dock,deck, or fire pit! The home is situated in a very quiet neighborhood with beautiful homes and gardens. We gave this a 5 rating however we wanted to rate it as a 4.5 due to the need for a through cleaning of the outside living areas, mostly the screened in porch. We did a light cleaning of the porch and were still able to enjoy the gas fireplace on the day the weather was questionable. We highly recommend the Life Is Good Lake House and would be happy to return for future getaways! Proximity to was a plus for us as we are from Maryland and our adult children reside in Richmond. PS - the dogs loved watching all the herons and one even paddle boarded for the first time!

Our friends have been getting away once a year for the past 20 years and your home provided us with a relaxing and cozy home on the lake with beautiful views. There were some minor issues with breakers needing to be reset several times (primarily for the kitchen) and the breakers in the breaker box (behind the downstairs refrigerator) were not labeled. The ping pong paddles need replacing as well as light bulbs in the kitchen and bedrooms. The toilet paper holder in the upstairs bathroom is also in repair. We let the property manager know who quickly responded. The kitchen is in need of hand towels and pot holders. Plenty of plates, bowls, etc. None of these needs negatively impacted our stay. Overall, a very lovely home on the lake and we would definitely want to come back again in the future.

It was an ideal place for a family gathering. The home was large, comfortable and amazing views. Lots of fun perks to keep kids and adults entertained. We’d love to come back for a future stay.

We loved staying here. Great location and even though deck has issues they are working to address, it never stopped us from having a good time. We rented a boat for the week from Shipwreck rentals which was very close and just spent the perfect week with the whole family relaxing, swimming off the dock and off the boat, and enjoying the quiet through the week.
