The house was really nice and accommodating to my family but the only downfall was the bees and they seemed like they were multiplying while we were sitting outside and the house and outdoor furniture had bird poop all over so we couldn’t really sit and enjoy because we had to clean the furniture

Fantastic Home

A group of 8 couples joined for a weekend retreat and we had a wonderful time. There is room to spread out as well as share time together. A wonderfully well stocked kitchen and fantastic outdoor space. It was very easy to communicate with Chris, the host and he was very accommodating. Highly recommended!

Beautiful Property - Helpful Owner!

We had our daughters wedding at this lovely home and it was beautiful! When we checked in, there were a few issues with the decking and patio due to some recent storms and the owner was super responsive and kind. She acted quickly and had someone out the very next day that remedied all issues. Her communication was wonderful and it put me much more at ease given our daughters wedding was the very next day. I would definitely recommend!

Beautiful location and great lake

The house setting was wonderful. The dock and dock house bot wonderful as well. We were disappointed with the internet going in and out. The owners were responsive but still had poor internet signal. Also, the clothes dryer stopped working. Again the owners responded but nothing was able to be done until after our stay - disappointing especially with 7 kids under 12.

Unfair Charges and Poor Management

I recently celebrated my wedding at Nirvanna at Lake Anna, and while the venue itself was beautiful, the overall experience was far from great. The owner and management were incredibly disappointing. They charged me an "event fee" of 1000, which seemed excessive for what was provided. The place was supposed to be cleaned and ready for us, but when we arrived, the outdoor area was a disaster. My husband and a friend had to spend time spraying water, blowing leaves, and cleaning up the mess themselves. On top of that, there was a terrible odor outside due to trash not being taken out for who knows how long. We even had to spend additional money on cleaning the backyard and removing the terrible odor, which took us about 3 hours.I called the owner, who admitted that the trash hadn't been removed. Despite this, they still tried to charge me an additional 1500 for absolutely nothing. They claimed we had damaged the dining table and door, which was completely false. We hadn't done any harm to anything. When we left, we made sure the place was spotless, with no dishes left and everything in order, yet they still tried to accuse us of things we didn't do. Thankfully, Vrbo was able to cancel these unjust charges because there was no proof to back them up.Overall, I would not recommend this place to anyone. Please be cautious if you decide to book here!

We enjoyed our stay overall—the location was great, the three refrigerators were useful, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and there were plenty of lake toys. However, this was our second time renting the house, and for the high cost, we expected more. The coffee maker broke on day two, and the ice maker and warming drawer didn’t work. Several bedrooms lacked proper curtains, affecting both sleep and privacy. The dock no longer has a ladder, and the beach exit is rocky and eroded, making it unsafe—especially for older guests. Cleanliness was generally good, but the shower grout and grill were neglected, with the grill posing a safety risk.Chris was responsive during the stay and offered help, but his solutions would have disrupted our vacation. Post-trip communication has been difficult—we’ve had no updates on the issues listed, our security deposit, or the return of a valuable item we left behind.We made the most of our trip and love Lake Anna, but addressing these concerns would make the house worth its price.

Wonderful house, great dock and water access, very smooth communication with owners. We had lots of space for the 12-16 folks in our party. The common areas were very spacious and well set up, the hot tub was great after skiing, and sitting around the outdoor fire was wonderful. Would definitely rent this one again -- loved it!!!

Great stay and location

The house is amazing. 7 great bedrooms and a lovely kitchen and dining room. Lots of space in the front and backyard to play. We were there in winter, so did not get to take advantage of the lake, but did make use of the hot tub and fire places. The owners are very responsive and were great to work with. Definitely would rent again.

NIce holidays at Nirv'Anna!

Nirv'Anna was a great place to gather our family for the holidays. It was plenty big enough for our family of 13. The outside fireplace was a big draw. We had a few hiccups with entry but it was resolved quickly. The open space living area was a great place to hang out. The kitchen was great... loved the expresso machine. Thanks Nirv'Anna!

About the host

Hosted by Chris Wright

Host profile image
Our names are Chris and Calli and we live in Vienna, VA. Chris is from Lynchburg, VA and Calli is from Cleveland, OH. We have two kids and doghter that all love time we get to spend on vacation playing pickleball, fishing, and boating. We're super thankful for the opportunity to rent Nirv'Anna out to other friends and families to make their own memories at the lake.

Why they chose this property

After renting many other properties at various locations and evaluating many homes over the years, we discovered 16201 Hickory Cut ln, in Mineral, VA. After driving down a mile long paved driveway, the trees open up and there's the house surrounded by beautiful, leafy banana trees. This is your clear indication that you're on vacation. Once you walk into the house, you first notice the two story great room with a wall of windows giving you the perfect view of the lake.

What makes this property unique

This house is on the perfect quiet deep cove that's big enough for swimming and floating but not where you're swimming by everyone else's dock and boat slips. The views from the deck of this elevated lot are the best you'll see at Lake Anna. Very secluded with no neighbors to the right of the property. Located close to restaurants, boat rentals, and Food Lion for groceries.
