Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2002
I gave my builder the deposit to start on 9-11-01 and day we all will never forget! Moved in July 2002 and have rented the chalet weekly since! I still clean the chalet myself as it's about the only time I have time to spend there. Took care of everything until a wonderful man came into my life 2007. We married Aug. 2008 and spent our honeymoon at the chalet. Oh my goodness, it was wonderful; so relaxing, we fished, took several day trips and (we live here). We go back now for a week to "work" on the chalet, this year we restained the deck, took down doors and refinshed, put up new screening, lots of projects to keep the place "like new". Best get a way ever! As lots of folks have left me notes thanking me for the "visit". Come on out and enjoy, all welcome. Joan & Terry
