Tyrala at LKA

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Located on a vast cove off Contrary Creek, Tyrala is where you and your family can safely swim, float, fish, paddleboard, canoe, and kayak, all while being free from the noise and traffic of boats and jet skis. The entire cove is a no-wake zone, as is the channel leading to the cove from Contrary Creek. If you feel like venturing out, downtown Mineral is only a little more than five miles away and boasts local restaurants and parks to explore. On the subject of scenic adventures, Lake Anna State Park is a short drive north. Bring some supplies from the nearby grocery stores and have a picnic along the water before going on a stroll through the park. Wineries and mini-golf are additional options the whole group can enjoy together before returning.

Your beautiful vacation home sports two-story ceilings on the main level and dining rooms and an open floor plan. The vast windows open the house to spectacular lake views while comfortably lounging. The two family rooms promise there won't be a dull moment, thanks mainly to the Ping-Pong table, the DVD library, and a closet full of games and puzzles. There are also three cable TVs for enjoying your favorite shows, and the family room has a smart TV to access streaming services. When you're hungry, the modern kitchen will welcome the group chef with its granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, which include an oven with a separate warming drawer, a new dishwasher, a microwave, and a French-door refrigerator. Share a family meal at the expansive, rustic dining table or at the kitchen island. Better yet, dine alfresco day or night on the deck with a large tile-top table and umbrella. Feel free to sear your favorite foods on the grill there, too.

Tyrala's private dock has a large, off-set umbrella and outdoor chairs (with cushions stored in the boat house), badminton and speedminton racquets (and a net), and an open boat slip in the boathouse for guests to shelter their watercraft. Make memories around the lakeside firepit on those balmy summer nights. Stargaze together as you laze in the Adirondack chairs while keeping your cocktails and s'mores handy on the custom-made tree stump tables around the firepit. Serenity can also be found on the front porch rocking chairs.

For added convenience, a community boat launch is available only to renters of the Freshwater Estates homeowners and guests less than one mile from home. This vacation rental is nestled on the public side of Lake Anna.

Great location
other than a couple of hiccups with the front door, access code and missing remote control, our stay was fantastic. A great relaxing atmosphere, and huge spaces and rooms that were perfectly appointed. Will definitely look at coming back again in the future.

Lovely Lake House in a Great Location
I’m glad we didn’t listen to the negative reviews. This home is lovely. 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and comfortably accommodated our extended family of 12, which included 6 children/teens. Yes, there is a small hill to get down to the water but it’s no more than a 90 second walk at most. The boathouse has an extra slip if you’re going to rent your own boat and there were several floats, badminton, outdoor chairs and tables to use plus the fire pit with Adirondack chairs was great. There is electric in the boathouse which was nice for us to use to blow up the extra floats we brought. Traversing the cove took some getting used to as it is shallow but just follow the channel that is dredged out and pull your prop up when going in and out. It is a slow, no wake zone in a quiet cove. It takes about 10-15 min to get outside the no wake zone with a boat going slowly. We all loved this part of the lake and really enjoyed our stay at this house!

Disliked: Check-in, communication, location
Too many negatives to give this place a good review.
Went to celebrate our anniversary. Very slow internet, weak phone coverage. Hard to communicate. “Additional” costs were ludicrous. Paid 85% extra in fees & taxes. Communications frustrating. On arrival, entry code incorrect. Took half hour to get in. Local guest services rep, Breanna, available 1 day out of 4. Not responsive to our concerns. Many problems with the place. Dining room light not working, poor wifi, sliding glass door broken, deck not swept & had cobwebs, 2 remote controls batteries didn’t work. Guest bathroom toilet started to leak nonstop & same bathroom & adjacent guest bedroom had no power after 1st day. On last morning (Mother’s Day) there was NO WATER. We hauled water from lake to flush toilets, but could not shower. I received a call that went to voicemail (because of the poor reception, of course!) stating we needed to leave the home at our regularly scheduled time. Outrageous, given that this was an issue with the house itself. No consideration for clients who need to get showered, use the toilet, wash up, clean dishes! I will NEVER again stay at a place that is managed by VACASA and never again at this specific home. What happened should NOT have happened. And I even sent a final text to Breanna, explaining some of our frustrations, to which I received NO REPLY. Vacasa has serious issues to address & the owner of this place should be extremely upset & agitated with them. Be warned. Choose another place, and one not managed by VACASA.

Wonderful Time
I'm so glad we did not listen to the negative reviews. The house was wonderful and met our needs very well. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would need. The extra fridge in the basement was perfect for storing drinks and ice. The house is on a very quiet cove which was great for letting people swim off the dock.

Great family vacation!
We loved the boat house and dock. Great quiet cove for swimming and kayaking. Master bath is outstanding! Plenty of space for our family of 6. Enjoyed the grill and outdoor seating and loved the fire pit! Large kitchen for cooking and 2 large refrigerators. Plenty of comfortable furniture and excellent central air! We all really enjoyed our stay!

Average at best
The view of the Lake from the master bedroom and patio were beautiful and the ice machine made ice. We checked in at 5pm and there was a mountain of trash spilling over from the bins. 15 minutes later someone from Vacasa came to fix the dishwasher. We were completely unaware and it was very uncomfortable having a stranger in the house as we were getting settled. After 30 minutes, we decided to leave to get groceries. When we returned, our code no longer worked and we realized we were locked out of the house! We spent 35 minutes outside, in the dark, on the phone while someone from the “help desk” tried to find our reservation. It was very scary and the smaller children were very afraid. I asked to have the property manager call us the next day (to at least apologize for the trouble), but no one ever did. Our bedroom smelled like a family of cats used it as their liter box (basement Queen bedroom) so midweek my wife and I each took a bunk in the kids room. The beds were uncomfortable, the pillows were worse. The sofas were the most comfortable pieces of furniture in the house, but they had stains.

Our first trip
We loved almost everything about our trip and this house! House was well equipped and super clean. Our only complaints was the beds were uncomfortable to us. The cove was also very shallow for our boat so we drudged mud and hit a downed tree.

Beautiful house
Beautiful place next to a lake. House was big and clean what you see on pictures is what you get. There were 2 kayaks to be used and paddle board as well. I was surprised how well equipped was the kitchen. Definitely I will stay at this house in the future.

Great house for a large group
Great house I'm front of the lake. Private deck, fire pit, bbq and all you need to enjoy outdoors. Only downside is you can't swim into the part of the lake in front of the house due to algae. Two story house, typical rural construction where walking on the first floor makes s lot of noise downstairs but good size bedrooms and area in general.

Nice home with everything you need
This home was well equipped and in great condition. Very clean, and spacious for our guests. We had 8 adults and 3 children. Here are a few things potential guests should know -- 1. the hill down to the water is steep, so you may want to consider renting a golf cart for elderly guests (if possible). 2. the cove is very quiet. This was perfect for us, but may not be what other groups are looking for if you want more of an active atmosphere. 3. The wifi is spotty and unreliable. 4. There is plenty of seating for large family meals.
