About Rose Marie Lee
My family and I purchased the property in 1970. Because of an abundance of crows in the area and the dam is visible from the property, hence the name "The Dam Crows Nest". Until 2012 there was a 60' house trailer located on the adjacent property. I live in Virginia Beach, VA which is approximately two hours from the lake. My grown kids and I decided to build the cabin in 2012. My oldest son did all the tile, slate and stonework in the house and my other son built the deck. My forte is decorating. I hope you will enjoy our "Little Piece of Heaven" and will come back year after year.
Rose Marie Lee purchased this Cabin in 2014
Why Rose Marie Lee chose Henrico
We were invited to a friend's cabin just around the corner. We fell in love with the lake. Before the weekend was over we we knew we wanted our own place. We were shown this 1-1/2 acre property and fell in love with it. The property is located on a large point on Main Lake which wraps around to a private sandy cove beach.

Gorgeous
Perfect lake weekend!
Gorgeous home with a perfect location
This house had everything that we needed. Beautiful home! We will rent it again.
Excellent vacation rental
To say this property was excellent is an understatement. Had an amazing beach area and all the beach toys you needed. Dock, canoe, 2 kayaks, floats, life preservers, -- just everything. Inside the house, it was spacious, clean and plenty of room for 8 adults and 4 small children. The only down side was that in case of rain, there would not have been enough room to eat. But we had perfect weather, so we ate out side on their huge 12 person table. We hope to rent it again next year.
Heaven on Earth
My family and I stayed at this beautiful property over the Fourth of July. The property itself provides the setting for a perfect family vacation. The interior of this home is warm, inviting, and spacious. The fully stocked kitchen enabled us to prepare a variety of homemade dishes while the game room allowed us to play and laugh long into the evening. The yard provided something for everyone - a large grassy area, beach, and boat house for jumping into the lake and swimming in the safety of a small cove. Sitting on the large deck and enjoying the view of the lake enabled us to relax and unwind. I can honestly say I did not want to leave this heavenly place!
Fabulous
It is a wonderful spot. 3 generations of folks enjoyed the view, water, and would all return again.
