This rustic-style home sits atop a gentle hill where there is always a breeze on the enormous screened-in wrap-around porch. Across the street, a short walk through the pines takes you to our private dock. A boat ramp access area is just a block away, so bring your boat, jet skis, and water toys, or simply enjoy GREAT fishing off the dock.

Bring your boat or rent one. Lakeside restaurants and marinas are abundant on the lake.

One of the more popular marinas (offering some of the best food around, on or off the lake!) is only two miles from the house.
The setting is peaceful and serene. This is the place to get away from it all and start on that book you've always meant to get around to writing. It is a wonderful setting for a retreat - either corporate or personal. Enjoy walking the neighborhood in safety and without traffic. Listen to the owls in the evening and watch the stars come out; we are far enough from the city lights that you can see the Milky Way in its glory. This is a place you'll want to revisit time and time again. It is a little bit of paradise and just a little bit magic. |
