Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2004
I love the water! This is a lovely waterfront cottage with dock, great fishing and swimming! Mountain and historic sites near by.
The Unique Benefits of this House
I love boating and fun on the lake and this home is only 5 minutes from all the services. The lake is stocked for fishing and swimming is great! I provide a canoe and paddle Boat for your enjoyment. The quaint cozy waterfront cottage is where families make memories. I named the cottage The Keebler because it looks like Elves shoud live there. You will find all the comforts of home, more so than your average rental because when it is not rented I live here.
