About the host
Hosted by Gregg and Kim DenHerder
Gregg grew up around Lake Okoboji in Iowa and Kim came from the warm waters in Louisiana. Together, we made a Brady Bunch and decided that Lake Anna was the place to bring the family together. We love lake living and we work hard so we have time to enjoy life and have fun. Gregg is the kind of guy who taught all the neighborhood kids how to water ski. It makes us happy to help others have a good time.
We discovered this property that needed some TLC and imagination. You couldn’t even see the house from the water. We took upon the task to renovate the house ourselves in an act of faith and a hope that we could make it a special destination home. So, Gregg set about utilizing all his professional home improvement skills, from a stump grinder and chain saw to every imaginable power tool. Kim removed rooms and rooms of wallpaper and borders. Even our friends and family helped paint, fix and furnish.
We created this rental home to be the place where our family would want to escape to. We hope you like what we’ve done to create a destination where everyone can enjoy themselves.

Why they chose this property
We fell in love with this house and its waterfront at our favorite part of the lake. The water is warm, the bottom is sandy and a cool stream from a nearby spring keeps your toes cool. This was the spot where we first saw a bald eagle swoop down to grab a fish and enjoy his meal from the broken sweet gum tree near the dock. We recognized that this lot had the advantage of a rare combination of proximity to the water, a flat lawn, and shallow and safe water access for children.
Brick Lake House has plenty of living space and a floor plan designed for entertaining. There is room for the whole group to comfortably hang out together. And there are spaces to break away alone for quiet time. Tall windows span the entire rear face of the house, providing great water views. The high ceilings allow you to feel that you have room to breathe. It has enough room for 16 to eat at the same time facing the water.
This house has good bones. Quality and solid construction keep the home comfortable and quiet. You don't hear the pitter-patter of footsteps around you when you want to sleep in. We love to see generations come together to make family memories here.
Full disclosure, we intentionally seek responsible, respectable guests who will ensure that our home remains maintained. We want to avoid the nightmare stories we hear, of rowdy parties and houses left trashed and broken. This is OUR future home, not just some rental investment. So, we don’t have automatic booking. We check reviews and ask for additional assurances that house rules will be followed when an inquiry comes without reviews. We find that it increases guest safety and keeps costs down. Respectful guests understand and appreciate the care that we have for our home and our guests.
We’re developing quite a few repeat guests. Nothing makes us happier.

What makes this property unique
* With advance notice, we can book together with Heron's Cove next door. See their listing #620039.
It's hard to find a better lake house better suited for families with small children. The gradual slope with a sandy bottom creates a great play area for little ones to splash in. The private and quiet cove has little boat traffic, so there's no constant barrage of waves from their wakes. The water’s floor is sandy, not muddy. And there’s sand at the shore for digging your toes in and building castles. Kids play in the water all day. There's also a fenced -in side yard.
Lake Anna's private side enjoys less water traffic, more privacy, and a longer season, due to the warmer water.
The house is just a few miles away from 2 country stores where you can pick up a few essentials, bait or fast food, country style. And there’s a new Dollar General 2 miles away. The house is not far from the main road, so there are no long drives down gravel roads or through a meandering subdivision to reach the house.
If you bring a boat, the neighborhood launch is 3 lots down. We’ll provide information for access. You will need to provide a gas can for refueling as there are no marinas on our side of the lake.
You also have the option of trailering the boat to a marina on the public, “cold” side. There, they have access to 3 marinas and 3 waterfront restaurants.
By renting on the warm, secluded, private side you can access both sides of the lake. But you can't access the private side if you rent on the public side.
We've tried to include everything to offer you a wonderful lake vacation. Our house is nearby. We’re always adding and changing furnishings and supplies. We regularly check in and work on maintaining the house. It is usually easy for us to drop by when there’s a need.
