About this property

Serene lakefront home with free WiFi, private dock, game room, & central AC

  • Step through the front door of this absolutely delightful, lakeside getaway and feel all that stress instantly fade away. Here you'll be embraced by rich, wooden features and decor, and have a host of desirable amenities at your fingertips! Inside, you'll find a well-equipped full kitchen ready to help you whip up delicious, cost-saving meals, a dining table, and a cozy living area with a large sectional sofa, TV, and a warming wood stove. On the lower level, there's a second living area with another TV and wood stove as well as a desk and chair if you need to get some work or remote schooling done while you're away. Head out to the heated and cooled garage game room equipped with Ping-Pong, an air hockey table that can be converted into a pool table, foosball, poker table, and more. And when you want to get some fresh air, this home features a screened-in sunroom, a furnished, wraparound upper balcony and lower deck, a lakeside firepit, and a private dock.

    Set right on the shore of Lake Anna, this family-friendly retreat is the ideal destination for boating, kayaking, swimming, and fishing! If you need any last-minute gear, Anna Point Marina is less than four miles from your door, just across the New Bridge. For a bit of fun away from the water, indulge in a little wine tasting at Lake Anna Winery, just six-and-half miles away. While a day trip up to Fredericksburg offers a variety of shops, restaurants, and all-ages attractions, just 30 miles northeast.

Relaxing getaway

This was a great house right on the lake. We enjoyed spending time down by the water and saw several birds we've never seen before. The property managers were responsive to any issues we had. We definitely recommend this property for a nice relaxing getaway.

Great stay!

This home was perfect for bringing our bass boat and practicing for a tournament. Location is wonderful and close to everything you need!! I was very impressed that the sofas had been vacuumed, since this is a home that allows pets - super clean - thank you for that!

Incredible trip!

Incredible trip! We will definitely be booking this house again. The location and neighbors are wonderful. Only complaints would be the dishwasher wasn’t working, lack of cooking pans and cleaning supplies, and pillows were awful. But we will just bring our own next time.

We had such a marvelous time celebrating Thanksgiving together - myself and my two sons, daughter-in-laws and fives grandchildren ages six and under! I played air hockey with my oldest granddaughter, and she beat the Sox off of me, always saying “YA” when she hit the hockey stick! I taught her how to play cards for her first time experience in playing cards at all- and she picked up on the unbridles really quickly and skunked me on that too!! We enjoyed the floor plan so much as each family has different bedtime and napping schedules, and there was always something fun to do! I mostly enjoyed the Woodstock and the warm chitter chatter between everyone, and the level of joy and love in my grandchildren to be together -all of us, was priceless!! We love the view, and all of the accommodations!! We hope to return next Thanksgiving or the next!! Thank you so very much!

Beautiful property but needs TLC

The property is great but the house needs attention (loose door knobs, doors that don’t shut, terrible scratched Teflon pans, outdoor furniture that should probably be retired, a game room with very worn games). We still had a great weekend and definitely enjoyed sitting on the deck and being on the water.

Great spot for friends

Very peaceful lakehouse spot with lots of amenities and room to sleep and spend time together. Great game room. Check-in was tough (code didn't work, called 5 different phone numbers before getting to someone, backup code didn't work, first lockbox didn't have a key, second lockbox key didn't go to the front door). A lot of things worked just barely well enough (pool table is sturdy and the felt is great but the pockets are all broken, some of the lights didn't work). It really is a good spot for non-fussy friends to spend a long weekend.

PERFECT Family get away

Picture sitting around a firepit watching your children jump off the dock into a lake, swinging on a hammock, or kayaking yourself down a huge lake. A huge game room to relaxing in the AC during the hotest points of the day, marshmallows around a camp fire or taking a 2 mile away day trip to a local spot for cider tasting, which is kidand pet friendly. This place was a prefect get away for me and my large family. My husband, myself, my sister-in-law and 7 children had a blast and a not easily forgoten vacation.

Great location

Right on the lake, easy access to lake from home and from dock. House was clean and had all we needed . The game room definitely needs a dehumidifier in it, it smells like it’s at the water. Lot of games even if you don’t want to hang in there. Great area for walking the dog as well. Location is excellent near restaurants and breweries. Quiet location just what I was looking for.

Great location

Overall we had a great stay. The house is nice and in decent condition, and the location on the lake could not be better. We enjoyed sitting on the deck with our coffee and taking the kayaks out each day. Plenty of space to relax and spread out. The kitchen could use a few more pots/pans and silverware, not much to cook with.The skylight leaked every time it rained so we had a puddle of water in the kitchen each morning.They also could clean the glass does coming into the house and out onto the decks as it didn’t seem those had been cleaned in months.

Beautiful!

Better days is a beautiful home with a beautiful view. It is well cared for and contains everything you need for a wonderful vacation! There are plenty of kitchen amenities. All you need is the food. There are plenty of linens provided, along with trial size shampoo, conditioner, soap and even blow dryers. The house can sleep at least 12 people comfortably. The game room is a definite bonus, especially for families with children or young adults. The bar and small refrigerator in the game room make it easy to enjoy your time away. There is a list of places to enjoy while on vacation. I would highly recommend The Lake Anna Tap House, Tims restaurant on the water, The Cove at Lake Anna and Coyote Hole Brewery . There are many more places we want to go back and visit. I definitely recommend Better Days for vacation!

Great location!

Loved the location for a relaxed lake front visit. Would book again at this location. Issues we had were minor and most were not related to the property itself and in the grand scheme did not adversely impact the great time we had. ( code key not working upon arrival, 45 min wait to resolve with management company) / air conditioning issue but fixed within 2.5 hours/ power outage but fixed within 3 hours. ) ( upstairs shower slow drains so water backs up when taking shower, inner shower curtain could use a little more love, game room was a great concept but not everything was working or in a functioning capacity ( pool table leans to the right so all balls tend right when attempting to play. There are sooooooo many game options though this was very minor for us.) As I said we enjoyed this house and location and would book again.

Vacasa stay

When we arrived to the property the code given was not working we called Vacasa and they tried to reset it and still didn’t work. We were told there was a lockbox on the property but no one knew where it was located. We were then told a ticket would be placed so a manager could help and they would call me back but could not give me a time frame on when I would receive a phone call. 20 minutes later we called again and spoke with Susan who was AMAZING!!! She was able to reset the code and we were able to get in. Once we got in we realized the house was not cleaned before we came, none of the beds were made the bathrooms were a mess, dishes had grease on them. we had to wash all sheets and put them on the bed. After everything was done the stay was great everything was as described. Overall it was a good stay.

WORST NIGHTMARE “VACATION”

I would be absolutely embarrassed if I owned this property and rented out to people! Maintenance was in the house for the first 3 days and never fixed anything and the only time they told us they were coming was day 1 and didn’t announce what the problem was. Issues during entire or some of stay: dishwasher broken, kitchen sink didn’t drain and disposal didn’t work, washer/dryer didn’t work, locks on doors broken, lights didn’t work, no hand soap, no sponge or dish soap to wash dishes, pilot light on grill and no lighter, smelled like sewage outside, smoke detector randomly went off at all hours, rusty nails popping from steps, no plug for tub, master bed was so terrible I had to sleep on couch, no cleaning supplies and so much more. We asked for a refund to leave early and were going to be completely out of luck and just stayed and left early on own. Trying to talk to Vacasa or management in general was another nightmare. NEVER BOOK HERE!

Charming home and location, on a quiet cove with lovely views into the lake. Home was great and cozy, plenty of room for large groups and plenty of things/amenities inside and outside, a little bit of something for everyone. Housing description and listing was overall pretty accurate and spot on, everyone enjoyed the home. Some minor things need to be upkept/checked on and cleanliness but overall it was a great experience. I'll definitely consider this home again for a future trip, you'll enjoy it!

Overall clean. Beds were comfortable. Great location. Property desperate need of updating. Electronic lock did not work. Stove hood vent is filthy, with no functioning vent or light. Light above kitchen sink does not work. Upstairs bathroom door knob is broken. Plastic barrier zip tied around stair railing, very flimsy. Several sliding glass doors still loose when locked. Not so great for the price.
