Location: Lake Anna, Virginia, USA (Halfway Between Richmond, VA and Washington DC)
Accommodations: Condominium, 1 Bedroom + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath (Sleeps 3-5)
This second floor condo is perfect for a small family or a couple's intimate getaway. With only a two-night minimum, spur-of-the-moment visitors are welcome, as availability permits. This 820 sq. ft. unit has a private entrance and the balcony offers a lake view. Unit 7 sleeps five with a king bed and day bed in the bedroom and a queen sleeper sofa in the living room.
Fully equipped with a washer/dryer, complete kitchen, living room and dining area, "very comfortable and well decorated" are the comments we hear the most. Your private boat slip, in quiet Shaffer's Cove, is only a short distance behind the condos and will accommodate boats up to 24 feet. Unit 7 has three reserved parking spaces for guests.
There are several convenience stores within a few miles of Shaffer's Cove, but the nearest grocery store is a Food Lion in the Town of Louisa, which is a 13 mile drive. So plan your grocery shopping accordingly.
For those coming off Interstate 95, there is a Food Lion located at the intersection of Route 1 and Route 606 in Thornburg. This is 18 miles from Shaffer's Cove but it is the last grocery store on your way to the lake. Lake Anna has two restaurants and a third one is only a short drive.
A recreation area is available with picnic pavilions, volleyball and a golf driving net.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
Cathy and I both grew up in Northern Virginia and are part of the “Hokie Nation“, as graduates of Virginia Tech. Both of our children are Hokies. We came to Lake Anna in 1985 to help construct and then manage the day to day operations at Anna Point Marina. We enjoyed this lake lifestyle, and walking to work, for 21 years. What a great place to raise two kids! Steve was very active in the Lake Anna business community and founded the Lake Anna Economic Development and Tourism Partnership. He also developed and published the Lake Anna Guide magazine and its online companion, Lake Anna Online, which he still operates.
Why the Owner Chose Lake Anna
We decided to buy the condo as a rental investment because of the tremendous niche that the condo fulfilled. We knew that plenty of waterfront homes were available for rent, and motel rooms close by. The condo was a great option for those looking for something in between. Affordable rental options with private boat docking, great décor, last minute rentals and one-night minimums were non-existent.
The Unique Benefits of this Condominium
The unique benefit of this condo, besides the reasons we purchased the unit, is its location. Lake Anna itself has much to offer, but for those who are looking for day-trips, many are available. Downtown Fredericksburg is a antique shoppers dream. Wine lovers will find several central Virginia wineries within a short drive, and the Lake Anna Winery is only two miles away. For the families looking for a major theme park, King’s Dominion is about 45 minutes away. Mountain lovers will find Skyline Drive and Shenandoah National Park only an hour to the west.
