The large oversize sun deck has four cushioned chaise lounges. Most of our days and playtime are spent down on the deck, or cruising on the lake. The boathouse and deck area has a stereo system complete with Bose outdoor speakers for your listening pleasure. The water depth at the end of the dock is 8-10 ft. deep. There are walk-in steps at the shallow end for the kiddies. It’s a nice quiet cove to just float around on one of our rafts, if you just choose to relax. In the evening, grab your favorite wine, cocktail or beverage and just retire around the fire pit campfire overlooking the lake for some daily fireside chat (we even supply the firewood).
General Area: Ideal for taking leisurely walks or some long country bike rides. The weekends are active with boaters, skiers, wake boarders and fisherman. The weekdays are quiet and serene.
