About this house rental
Beautiful waterfront home overlooking the lake. Over-sized deck and screened-in porch with a scenic view of the water. Big open living area with wall of windows. Three bedrooms, two baths, two family rooms and a large kitchen.
Located on the private side, Jerdone Island, is one of Lake Anna's best-kept secrets. With access to the warm waters, it's great for any water activity. Launch your boat from the key entry private community boat launch, then tie up the boat in front of the property. During peak summer holidays this side of the lake is less congested with calmer waters than the public 'cold' side. It never freezes so fishing is possible year round. Bring your boat, jet skis, fishing poles, and suntan lotion to this one of a kind getaway!
* New Ungraded kitchen, new floors in bedrooms and family room, updated bathrooms!
*Pedal boat and 2 kayaks included in the rental!
*Water depths vary in the cove so renters using boats may need to exercise caution and discretion when navigating to deeper waters which is less than 30 yards from the dock.
*Renter signing lease needs to be at least 25 years of age and remain on property at all times.

The sliding doors were so clean, I could barely tell there was glass between us and the deck. Simply beautiful but partially obstructed view of Lake Anna. Phenomenal kitchen island. Most of our time was spent in the lake though. Paddle boats were a huge hit. My husband caught so many fish. Slop sink is a nice added touch. Everyone enjoyed the swings and the fire pit for hotdogs and s’mores. Will book again if in the area… only real complaints were broken wood on the outside steps and dock is a bit scary…. And almost no functional outside lights makes it hard to enjoy the property in the dark.

What a wonderful house for a family vacation. All the comforts of home. It was just four of us but the house could accommodate a lot more. Kitchen was well stocked so you could cook at home and enjoy the gorgeous view of the lake! Loved waking up and having coffee down by the water. Would definitely come back!

The kayaks were so much fun but we did not see the canoe and the peddleboat was broken so we did not use it. I really wished they cut the grass cause everytime I walked back and forth to the house to the lake it was hitting my knees. The step going up to the house is broken so be careful and there is a hole in the dock on the lake. Tv downstairs doesn’t work at all but we did make the most of it and enjoyed the lake and the kayaks and paddle boards.

Great property however the outside and yard could use some attention. Grass was overgrown. Paddle boat was too dirty to use. Deck steps were broken and porches were full of debris and insects. Inside was very clean.
4.6
Beautiful home which was very private and quiet. Perfect for a relaxing girls trip. The swings off of the porch were so comfortable! We couldve spent all day in them.
There were a few things that were broken which I brought to the owners attention.
Everything was wonderful! We would love it visit again!

Beautiful scenery.
Quiet and peaceful.
Not clean enough: cobwebs in corners of floors and feelings, window screen and sills extremely dirty, master bedroom futon covered in animal and dirt, sheets were stained and did not match, some dishes were dirty, exterior decks and staircases needed to be swept and wiped off, paddle boat was filled with mud and bugs and was missing steering, kayaks were muddy and buggy as well.
Blinds in master bathroom fell off the mount when o attempted to open them.
Screened patio needed sweeping in the corners and ceiling fan had many cobwebs stuck to it. Exterior doors were covered in leaves and cobwebs making entry unpleasant.
No dishwasher soap was available for the dishwasher.

We had a pretty descent time at this place. Though there were a few great things we loved and a few things that weren't so enjoyable. The proximity to the lake, the massive prep space in the kitchen, the air fry capable convection oven, and the general tranquility; makes this place fantastic. The not so great things are: lots of spiders and spider webs inside and outside of the place (outside was expected however, lol), lack of attention to details by the cleaners (dusty in corners and behind television), the internet in the living room was not operable while we were there, and the trash situation was a little confusing (not sure if it was the prior guests or an unknown miscommunication). The overall consensus here is that this place is ideal for the person or people who enjoy being close to the beauty of the lake, but don't expect a luxury experience (there is NO garbage disposal and a tree might fall at any moment). No seriously, a tree fell onto the driveway, while we were there! Our pup did have a fantastic time chasing squirrels, I enjoyed the fishing and cooking in the kitchen, and husband enjoyed the peace and quiet. I hope some TLC goes into the place (basic repairs to the deck and stairs, a deep clean of the entire place, and some grounds maintenance). But even in its current condition, it's a good place that can certainly be great!

Disappointing from the moment we pulled in. I use VRBO quite often. Greeted in the driveway with overflowing large trash bins that had been there for several days. All of the trash bins on the side of the house were also full. They smelled horrible and were disgusting. Host inquired if the trash was left, but never sent anyone to remove the trash. Arrived on a Th evening and they were still full with nowhere to leave our trash by checkout on Sunday. House has a definite funk to it with off putting smells, that are a combo of stale lake water and lack of cleanliness. House is very poorly finished, furnished, and in disrepair. Chunks of paint missing on walls. Screws in walls that looked to have had pictures on them at one point which are now long gone and holes in the doors. Oddly configured home with no bathroom on the first floor, so be aware if you have guests that need a bathroom but may not travel stairs well. My wife reached out to the host upon her arrival to let them know of the moldy showers and shower curtains. Host replied in the morning telling us they would reimburse if we wished to replace the shower curtains. My wife had to clean the bathrooms before we could use them as they were disgusting. Lawn clippings were thick and should have been removed. I messaged the host to rectify as I don’t think this property lived up to the ads or costs. Have waited a week and no response. I definitely would not recommend this property. Ripped off and blown off.

The property was in a good location, private, serene and surrounded by trees. The inside was very clean and an added plus that the linens and towels were provided. Some areas of the house were updated and some areas are showing their age. Arrival and access to the house was easy. The lake was beautiful, especially when the sun was setting. We really enjoyed the kayaks and the fire pit. We didn't try to fish off the dock because we felt the water was too shallow.
The exterior of the house could really use a lot of TLC. It does not match the pictures. The gutters were clogged, the siding, deck, windows and sills were very dirty. The pedal boat is missing the steering handle. There was a makeshift one that was not usable. The stairs off the deck are steep and the lights on them were not operating so it was a scary dissent after dark, made even more dangerous with the damp leaves that should have been cleared off before our arrival.
This property could definitely be 5 star with some repairs and maintenance. Overall, we appreciated our stay here.

We had a few questions about the property when we first arrived. The owner did not respond to our e mail, text, or repeated phone calls. The house meeds some TLC. Especially the outside and the outdoor amenities. The kitchen equipment needs to be updated and replaced. Especially the pots and pans. Other than the above we enjoyed the fire pit and overall the house.

My friends and I booked this property for the weekend to kick back and relax and bbq. The listing did not disappoint at all, the amenities were great.
4.6
Honestly, don't think it's worth the price, and the property was full of spiders, spider webs and was cleaned hastily. Grass was partially cut, shower was extremely slippery and my wife slipped and got a concussion. I contacted the owner to no avail. I believe this was a real estate investment aimed at getting milked as much as possible with the least effort. If you can pick alternate solutions, at similar price, I suggest you do so. I own properties too, but also respect those that rent from me.

We had a wonderful time at this property. Lots to do! We had bonfire, grilled outside and took out the peddle boat for happy hour on the water. It can get buggy, but that is just the location and no fault of the property owner. I would recommend to all!
4.6
Our stay was great. The house was perfect for our family. The kitchen was stocked well with plenty of pots, pans and dishes. The outside was were we spent the majority of our time and between the water, paddle boards and hammock, it was amazing. Will definitely book again.

The house was roomy and updated. The kitchen and baths were re done and there was plenty of room for us 7 guys on our annual reunion/kayak/rest vacation. The location is GREAT with plenty of privacy.
The only negative is that the exterior of the house needs some attention. Power washing to remove the myriad of cobwebs and major cleaning of the to remove mold from the picnic tables. There also needs to be better outdoor lighting. None of the many solar lights on the steps etc. worked. Just a little elbow grease outside would make a big difference in this very comfortable perfectly situated home. We would absolutely stay here again if we come back to Lake Anna.

This was such a beautiful property nestled back in the woods but right on the water. Views are gorgeous, water was warm and location was great. Close enough to get to the store or restaurant but far enough to be exclusive. We loved every minute here!

Amazing location, house, and amenities! Perfect for kids and adults - We can’t wait to come back.

The house and the yard are great! However, we found a lot of dirty dishes and silverware that had been put away in cabinets and drawers. Like obvious caked-on food. Also, they need to treat the yard. While sitting at the picnic table by the lake we were all crawling with ticks.
4.6
We stayed for 2 nights with 7 members of a bass club. The house had plenty of beds for everyone. We did not feel cramped. Though the dock was small we were able to fit 6 boats with 2 being beached on the sand which wasn’t an issue due to the location being in a protected cove. Communication with the owner was great. He responded back quickly even when we popped the breaker Saturday and we needed access to a locked room to reset the breaker. The only thing that could have made it better would be if there was electric at the dock. If you need to charge boat batteries you will need to bring extension cords. Over all our stay was great.

We had a relaxing time at this home. Everything was ready when we arrived. We enjoyed kayaking on the lake and playing board games. We would definitely come back to visit.
4.6
The property was FILTHY. From the cobwebs in the corners, to the dirty pillows on the beads to the dirty floors. The lock on the bedroom door with the bunkbeds upstairs literally locked us inside of the room! We could not get out for over an hour and had to bang on the door until someone heard us. The back steps to take the trash down to the bins was broken and nobody should have been walking on it, but we were not warned. The blinds are the original from the home and are dirty and BRIGHT YELLOW. The trashcan was broken as well. This house looked nice online but wasn't clean.
4.6
Just be careful not to walk on the water front. The neighbors got upset with us when we tried to call the kids to come back. Other than that, it was a nice stay.

Nice experience

Enjoyed my 5 night stay. Very clean and well provisioned home. I was slightly disappointed by the lack of an unobstructed lake view due to the obnoxious boathouse built by the owner of the equally obnoxious McMansion nearby.
Just a few very minor complaints about the property that I only mention for the owner, toaster didn’t work, garbage can lid needs to be reattached, and the screen to the sliding door is pushed out.

Enjoyed are stay here for 3 nights. Good location and nice house. Everyone who came had a good time.

We had a great stay at the property, our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Particularly helpful for us was two paddle boards one paddle boat multiple inflatables and two kayaks. This equipment was a little bit beaten up but functional. The home in our opinion is needing a serious update of all things, it feels like a collection of old leftovers that are miss matched and not designed at all. Fans so loud and wiggly you can’t get to sleep if you turn them on.

Lovely setting.
The woods and lake views were serene and beautiful The house was completely private, well furnished and comfortable. The kitchen was a pleasure to work in. We enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boards but other water equipment was not in service. The water temperature was like a warm bath--lovely except during severe heat. Hosts had provided campfire wood and kindling so making s'more was a breeze. We had a wonderful family vacation.
