Greak lake side cabin.

We had a great stay. The cabin was very clean and well stocked. It was very accessible and within short drives to all of the DC area sites. Downtown Manassas was cute and had some good restaurants. We would stay here again.

Peaceful Nature

We had a lovely stay at the lake! We loved the beautiful trees and nature all around. The house was spotless with everything we could possibly need. We enjoyed the gorgeous view from inside and out. It was also very easy to explore the surrounding area. We caught the metro at the Vienna station and went into DC several times. The area around the property had plenty of stores and restaurants. We made wonderful memories!

Wonderful Lake View and Amazing Host!

Our February weekend trip at this warm, cozy and inviting home was perfect! The house was even better than the pictures and had everything we needed. The host, Karen, was very kind and prompt in responding to any questions we had. The house was even supplied with a snack basket, bottled water, coffee, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and even a bottle of wine upon our arrival. We will definitely stay here again if we are in the area!

Fantastic View - Lakefront home

Charming lake home. We stayed here to attend the Solheim Cup in Gainesville Va. Easy ride in and excellent place to relax in the evenings. Check in was easy and communication with host was excellent. Highly recommend this VRBO. Note: There’s many steps to reach dock. Climb back up is a little strenuous.

Beautiful Respite from the Business of the City

Our family came to town to celebrate our son's wedding. It was a very busy four day celebration with events in and around Bristow and Manasas. This lovely lake home was the perfect spot to grab some quiet and rest. Super cute home, beautiful views. It was just what we expected from the pictures on vrbo. Karen was really good about answering questions promptly when we had them. It was a lovely stay in a very unique vrbo.

Amazing view

The house is very beautiful, comfortable, filled with details, and it also has a spectacular view. The communication with Karen was excellent. It’s a house by the lake, but it requires a long path with many steps to reach the floating deck by the lake. It’s not impossible, but it’s something to keep in mind. Apart from that, we thoroughly enjoyed 48 hours of relaxation. Thank you, Karen.

Fantastic!

Wow! This home was absolutely amazing! The view is spectacular and the house was perfect! Inside was well maintained, well appointed, we'll laid out and decorated appropriately. Everything you could need is available. Karen was a great host, very responsive and helpful! It was my first time using vrbo to rent and she was very patient with me and my questions about the process. The only thing negative I can say is make sure you're in shape if you want to go down to the dock! (159 steps, my husband counted!) My legs were sore after coming back up, but very worth the trip! Thanks for a great place to stay on our trip! Very much recommend!

About the host

Why they chose this property

Welcome to The Lake Jackson House! You are here to get more information about our home and we are beyond excited to share some details!
This place is very special to us. It was our home away from home as we raised children.
We have so many great memories attached to it, and we're convinced that you will, too. Long days at the Lake Jackson Beach, fishing off of the dock, enjoying fires in the firepit and fireplace, sunsets and sunrises, 4th of July, and Thanksgiving Celebrations, and so many more!
The home was built in 1929, in a very historical region, making the fact that many of the materials used were harvested from the surrounding area including the stones used to build the fireplace which came from the Lake Jackson Dam excavation very exciting.
