Whether you’re searching for fishing and tackle supplies, a specific souvenir/gift, consignment shops or would just like to spend the day perusing at your leisure, Lake Anna is the place to make it happen. 

The Boardwalk on Lake Anna features local gift shops, restaurants and entertainment opportunities and the plus side – it’s all right there at the lake.
