Fancy Free is a beautiful home with spectacular, breathtaking, long views of the lake from every main bedroom! It is designed for upscale living. All primary bedrooms include private baths, TVs, and balconies. Each balcony has its own patio furniture for you to enjoy and relax in comfort.

The upper level contains two main suites with a living area/loft large enough for a sleep sofa, chairs, and a game table. The main level is a home in itself with living areas, bedroom, sleeping area and a large-screen TV. This level has many different gathering areas including a living room, dining room, new gourmet kitchen, eat-in bar, and breakfast nook. There is also a poker table on this level so you can enjoy the lake views while playing cards/games or watching your favorite team win on the large-screen TV. On this level you will also find several different seating/conversation areas: in front of the fireplace, in the living room, around the poker table, in the den off the great room, dining room table and breakfast nook table.

The lower level is designed for fun. This is where you will find a large-screen TV, pool table, ping pong table, foosball table, and children's play area. There is an additional full-size refrigerator and microwave on this level so you can store all those extra snacks with easy access to the yard and dock. On this level you will also find a universal gym and treadmill so, if you choose, you may keep to your personal workout schedule! Throughout the house, you will find the amenities are extensive. They include, but are not limited to, a private hot tub, jacuzzi tub, pool table, ping-pong, foosball, and poker table complete with professional poker chips. There are two large-screen TVs, two private docks, a swimming dock with a beach, a children's play area, a hammock, and an adult swing. In addition, you will find even more outdoor amenities, too many to mention because they are always growing, but include a basketball hoop, swing set, fire pit, horseshoes, and lots of beach toys and lounge chairs! High-speed fiber optic internet ensures everyone stays plugged in and is great for remote work and distance learning. Other home essential include a private washer/dryer and central air-conditioning.

The home is located on the public side of Lake Anna. Enjoy local restaurant and crab house, Tim's at Lake Anna, or great BBQ at Billiken's BBQ Company. Local shopping can be done at Dickinson's Store. Boat rentals can be found at Shipwreck Boat Rentals and other local agencies.

My boys and I had an excellent time. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked with utensils, kitchen equipment and cups/glasses. Also, the location on the lake was ideal. Also, I was working half days so the Wifi was very reliable and robust.

Perfect location - beautiful home.
So much to love about this place! The view is wonderful, the space is well designed and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook a simple meal or a feast for a crowd. The pool table, air hockey, and foosball were all put to good use. The local management team was responsive and helpful!

Quiet and beautiful winter break
Really lovely house with beautiful views through the two picture windows, lots of space. Fully stocked kitchen with lots of gadgets, pots and pans, serving ware. Great game room downstairs. We went in January so it was really quiet and peaceful. Would definitely recommend.

Fancy Free
We had a great weekend at Fancy Free, even though it rained most of the trip. The house is set up wonderfully for kids. We enjoyed it so much we plan to book same place next year. The only thing I would suggest to home owner is looking to put an actual door in on the front bed room for more privacy/noise barrier.

Incredible house
Very spacious and comfortable. The kids room downstairs was filled with toys and they had a blast. Disclaimer - only one of the bedrooms had its own thermostat. The other bedrooms were heated and cooled only by the main thermostat in the house. Zoned hvac was really the only thing that missed the mark. Great time with the kids. Fully stocked kitchen. Good fishing off the dock. We were all very comfortable during our stay.

Well stocked, fun home!
We had a great time in our stay at this home. Very well stocked with most anything you could need and plenty of fun activities. There were definitely a few things that could have been a bit cleaner and several broken pieces of furniture and a loose/broken handle on the oven door. Beds were very comfortable and the home is very spacious! Overall a great place and I would visit again, but it could use a little tlc in some of the details!

Needs renovation and maintenance
The house needs major renovation and maintenance. The bathrooms are old and dingy. There were dead bugs on the walls and ceilings. The bushes were overgrown and blocked walkways and protruded through the decking. It was surface clean (kitchen, bathrooms, and vacuumed carpets), but I dropped something between the bed and nightstand and quickly realized it hadn’t been cleaned in a very long time. For the price we paid, we were really disappointed in the condition of the house.

Great Location, but Stay Needs Improvements
The location can't be beat: right on the water with a private dock, great views from the living room and hot tub, and close to local attractions. However, the home itself really needs some updates. The upstairs refrigerator refused to keep cool and we were told the day after we filled it that we shouldn't have put so much in the refrigerator (we bought a normal amount of food for 3 days). Luckily there was a downstairs refrigerator that fit most of the food we bought. All of the provided kettles in the kitchen had rust inside of them. All of the clocks (aside from in ones in the kitchen that I set when I got there) were set to different times. If the refrigerator in the kitchen were working like a normal fridge it would easily get another star. Overall, some of the home appliances need some upgrades, but the location does the heavy lifting for this stay.

Family Getaway
Overall we had a wonderful stay and would return if our plans ever take us back to Lake Anna. There was lots of space, indoor and outdoor entertainment, big kitchen with an open floor plan, and a nice boat dock. The only comment is that the cleanliness needs some work. On the surface it's clean, but it really needs a deep clean. A lot of the kitchenware needed cleaned before using, the boat dock needs a good cleaning, the kitchen floor sticky when walking on and patio furniture/cushions need cleaned.

Disgusting Hot Tub!!
The house is really nice and spacious! communication with Vacasa was easy and they were able to help with what we needed assistance. However, the cleanness of the house was not the best. The house could have at least been vacuumed. The hot tub was very dirty! it was full of algae and there was even two glass bottles of liquor in the water, which is not only hygiene issue but also a safety issue!!!

Great house but 2 small issues
The house was fantastic, perfect for our family. Spacious, clean, boathouse, beach, poker table, kitchen were the highlights. Two Small issues which aren't necessarily significant... The wifi info was incorrect in the email, so we had to hunt for it....was correct on a small brochure downstairs. Also, bigger issue, the air conditioning was a mess...main level fine. Downstairs RIDICULOUSLY cold. Upstairs, only blue bedroom got air, left bedroom was uncomfortably hot. Otherwise the place was fantastic and we will definitely be back!!!

Old and dirty. Needs renovation.
If your care about cleanliness, this house may not be for you. The bathrooms are unsanitary and old (e.g., mold in the shower). Outdoor seating area was unusable as their chairs were mostly broken and/or the chair mats were old and dirty. The jacuzzi water has not been cleaned. The whole house is squeaky, including floors, beds, and chairs. All furniture and items are also very old. Overall you do not feel a sense of home or comfort as you can tell this house has not been maintained well. On the upside, the house’s view of the lake is very nice, and it’s very spacious.

Great for families
The private beach and dock were fantastic. The house was very comfortable and spacious. The downstairs game room was great to use in the evenings, there is something for everyone. I enjoyed the deck the most, being able to sit there and watch everyone playing in the water and enjoying the views. The house provided us with everything we needed to enjoy our vacation.

The place was absolutely beautiful.A true holiday getaway getaway.
The pictures posted of the house don't do justice to what the place looks like in person.We just loved how everything was so clean and well kept. The view from the house is amazing.4 of the bedrooms faced the water and the bonus was all of them had king sized beds that were very comfortable. What we loved also is that the house had its own private beach where we all could swim and have a wonderful time together. Would not just love to come back but also recommend it to friends.
