There's an eat-in dining option for six or you can take your plates out to the deck for al fresco dining at the covered patio table.

We had a nice relaxing visit at this property. Everything we needed was available and we enjoyed our stay.
4.5
House is lovely and quaint. Yard is massive with a trek to lake. (neighbors used golf carts from their house to dock). Dock and lake area was in grave condition. It's under construction (or in need of) so doesn't look anything like the pictures. It is located on private side of lake so if you are planning to rent a boat, it is complicated as you cannot get a boat between the private and public side of lake as there is NO access to do so. It would have to be delivered or you will have to pick it up. it's a close drive to public marinas and restaurants. All in all a relaxing trip. Hours has pretty much everything except for steak knives and storage containers (bowls/lids). There is a grill which is not listed as an amenity or in pictures.

This house was perfect for our extended weekend getaway. Very open floor plan and felt very comfortable. The views of the back deck and screened in patio were amazing. Really enjoyed our stay!

Clean, neat and very updated. Located on the warm/private side of the lake. Plenty of living and sleeping space and a huge yard. Plenty of parking and in a really nice area.

This was our second time visiting this home and when we had a family member want to visit the lake we thought we'd book here again being that we enjoyed our last stay here. The location is wonderful and the pricing reasonable. They did change the couch out since we last were here (it's not the one in the listing) which is a bummer because the older one was bigger and more comfortable. When we arrived the house was ice cold. We thought maybe they forgot to turn on the heat which seemed weird because it was January and snowing. We left for awhile to go explore and when we got back that evening it was still freezing (55). I texted with the property management and they responded quickly but nothing was resolved that night so we went to sleep in a very cold house. Thankfully there were extra blankets so we bundled up. Followed up the next morning and management said they would have someone come out. We headed out for the day as it wasn't comfortable to stay in the house. I had to text management three hours later to get an update and they said a part in the furnace had been replaced and the heat was now working. We returned and the place was toasty! We enjoyed the rest of our stay but would have been nice to been offered a late check out free of charge considering we had to spend time away from the house and a first cold night due to conditions. I can say that when we were here in the summer the AC worked great and the back deck has a wonderful view of the lake.

Perfect place for a mini retreat! Thoroughly enjoyed the water view from house. And that it is in a quiet neighborhood. My dog enjoyed our walks. Enough privacy without being away from it all!

This beautiful home is aptly named “Our Happy Place”. There is plenty of comfortable sleeping accommodations, and the kitchen is well appointed. The view of Lake Anna is wonderful and the night sky has an amazing display of stars.

Very convenient location on the "warm" side of the Lake and water truly is warmer than the Public side

Everything was fine 🙂

We really enjoyed this house for our 4th of July vacation. The setup of the house worked out great because one of the couples have a baby so the basement area was perfect for them to setup and be a little removed from the rest of the group. The lake is beautiful to watch on the back deck. Since the house is located right near the outflow of the nuclear plant the water is super warm, like a bath. We would get in for a bit and then out and that was cooling. The screened in porch was great too although we didn't notice any bugs on the property!! I don't believe the listing mentions a grill but there is one here. House was super clean and nicely decorated. Beds were pretty comfortable as well. We would definitely stay here again.
4.5
Cute and quaint little lakehouse with a wonderful lawn, lots of beds, and all the amenities I could ask for. The listing does not mention the grill, which is a huge plus.

Very clean, great house right on the water, 10/10 would recommend

We arrived to find the door code provided did not unlock the door.
2 phone calls and an uncomfortable extended wait later, the lock was reset and a new code provided. The property came available to me 5 hours and 45 minutes after it was promised.
Vacasa has offered a 10% credit towards a future rental. I have instead asked for a 10% refund. Vacasa no longer returns my emails and online messages.
The property was great. The management was unacceptable. I’ll avoid Vacasa in the future.

Beware! If you're planning to work online, take online classes, training or just to use the AV entertainment - stay away from this place !
1) There are two big TVs, but they only have the streaming apps. Which work only... if there's an Internet connection...
2) For our stay it was hit and miss. Wrong initial info (network name/password) for the device WHICH WAS NOT THERE, problems w/substitute equipment (cheap access point), the coverage bandwidth bought by mgmt "in chunks".
So, every 2 days when there was no coverage anymore, they were playing stupid game w/us pretending that this was a rural area w/weak signal,etc., while in reality they had to pay for another extra "chunk" to whoever the provider was... But,
each time we had to call Vacasa first and then- sometimes- somebody from Local Mgmt would contact us and try to solve the issue.
3) In the end we were wasting our time on stupid things, so we decided to try enjoying the nature more (location is super!) instead of getting aggravated all the time...

Nice place to escape reality

The house was adorable and so well decorated. We had mostly everything we needed! Only 2 things we weren’t able to find which was the fire pit and the beach towels, but we still had a great time!!
4.5
We rented last minute for a quick getaway and were delightfully surprised by this cute little house! The waters were too dangerous for swimming because of an algae bloom, but we made the best of it by using the hose and sprinkler to help alleviate the very hot temps (high 90’s the whole time). The house’s AC worked exceptionally well, and we had some very needed quiet family time. Sitting on the deck after sunset, which was also gorgeous, was nice for star-gazing. It was a very quiet part of the lake. The management company was very good about communicating and answering questions- very responsive. All in all, would definitely stay again. Thank you to the owners for making this house available.

Great view of the lake and the house was very nice and clean.

The house had some recent updates and was more than big enough. The TVs were small but we were outside all the time anyway. There wasn’t really cell service so you needed the WiFi. The water was nice with an old dock, deck and fire pit at the water. Fishing was good off the dock and nearby. The water was nice and warm for swimming. It was close to a grocery store, a country store and restaurants nearby. We had a great time.
