About the host
Hosted by Audrey Penny
When my wheels turn onto Long Lake Peninsula, I unknowingly exhale and instantly relax. "I am home." I purchased this home at a young age, many many years ago. Memories include bringing my babies home, them riding their trikes down the driveway, many walks to the beach, parties at the park, and good times with friends and neighbors. I continue to lovingly renovate and upgrade this cherished getaway and 'go back home' often. I hope you feel the warmth and love inside these walls the moment you walk through the doorway:)
Why they chose this property
The drive in is slow-paced under a canopy of trees with peeks of the calming lake. Neighbors smile and wave as they walk their dog. Life just seems to slow down on Long Lake Peninsula.
What makes this property unique
All the wood trim and countertops were made by us from trees we cut from Grandma's property. The stones in the shower are from Dad's lake....I spent a year slicing them like bread. Every inch of this house is personal.
