About this property

Lake Anna Blue Sails, Waterfront Estate, Family Retreat

Large groups deserve grand spaces. Gather the entire family or sit down to enjoy a tête-à-tête. Game Room: Play poker, bumper pool, shuffleboard, foosball or board games. Exercise Room: Work off the big meal on a treadmill or relax with your favorite yoga pose. Living Room: play charades in the huge, community space. Media Room: Watch your favorite show under special lighting. Puzzle Nook: Enjoy peace, quiet and a puzzle in the out-of-the-way puzzle nook. Blue Sails' many specialty areas cater to family time or quiet interludes.

Cooking is a breeze with two fully-equipped kitchens. Everyone deserves a seat at mealtime, and Blue Sails' kitchen nook and adjacent dining room offer seating for all. Enjoy al fresco dining on the screened deck located just off the kitchen nook.

Family gatherings extend outside. The large deck extends across the home with access from the living room, kitchen and master bedroom. Half of the deck is screened and has a ceiling fan. The lower level patio offers a space for a bit of privacy. As you head down to the lake, you'll discover a fire pit.

“What about the water?” you say. You’ll find plenty of space to lounge on the expansive dock, complete with tiki bar. Walk in at the shore, but enjoy the deeper water from the end of the dock. Three kayaks offer you convenience to explore the cove or head out to the main lake. With two electric, covered boat lifts and a place for your jet ski, the dock has everything you need.

Take a look at the bedroom configuration. Your large group won’t be crammed together, and you won’t fight for the bathroom. The main floor features three king bedrooms, one queen bedroom and 2.5 baths. The “penthouse” includes a bath with shower and the room features one king and three twins . The lower level has a queen bedroom, a king bedroom, and a full bath. There's also a sofa bed in the media room.

Blue Sails is one of the few pet friendly homes at Lake Anna. We welcome a maximum of three dogs with a reasonable, non-refundable fee/pet/stay. VRBO will only add one pet fee, so if you want additional pets approved, you may pay outside of VRBO.

This is the sister home to the smaller (sleeps 8) Blue Skies at Lake Anna.

Great week

The House was perfect for our family, very clean and tastefully decorated. However the property needs some work, tiki bar was full of yard debris, outdoor refrigerator needed cleaning, most of the chairs around the fire pit were broken and the grass had not been mowed. Hopefully all will be taken care of. We would rent this property again.

Fantastic Family Get Away

What a great lake vacation! The lake house is as big as described and the boat house/dock area was better than imagined. Lots of open dock area to sunbath and enough shady areas too; 3 kayaks, 3 boat lifts, a ton of fish and located in a small inlet, so you miss the big lake traffic. Kate was super easy to work with. We will be back next summer.

Blue Sails Retreat

Our first stay at Lake Anna and we couldn't have asked for a better property to rent. The house was spacious and clean, with plenty of room for our 3 families. Situated on a peaceful inlet, we got the perfect mix of quiet relaxation and fun on the lake. The property manager Kate, was super responsive and even offered us extra time to check out on our departure date. We plan to go back this summer and rent Blue Sails again!

Family Get Together at the Lake

Great getaway to reunite with family members. House was large, clean, well stocked, and very comfortable. It was great to have the big screened in porch to eat meals. The fire pit was also a nice feature. The boat rental was a quick 30 minute ride on the lake. We were rained out for one day but still able to use the dock and porch. We will definitely consider renting again

A Very Nice Week at the Lake

Blue Sails is a large house with adequate space and nice amenities. The access to Lake Anna is very convenient and was great for our younger kids (age 4-10) to swim and float on tubes in the cove. The neighbors were pleasant and not loud despite it being the 4th of July. My kids also enjoyed using the kayaks from the house. The deck was spacious and provided plenty of room for sunbathing and they also had several nice chairs and a table on the deck. Since we had good weather, we didn’t take advantage of the game tables (billiards and shuffleboard). Nice features we didn’t expect were clean linens in separate labels bags for each bed) and enough dishes and silverware for 20 or more guests. The kitchen appliances were also very new and were well suited for our meals since we did a lot of cooking there. We also enjoyed the large sectional couches and chairs in the living room where all of us could gather at one time. The “penthouse” was spacious and fun for the kids.
