2+ Acre Stocked Pond & Pedal Boat
The private pond is stocked with bass, bream, and catfish, offering hours of fun for all ages. Take the pedal boat for a peaceful ride or try your hand at fishing right from the bank.

Rustic Charm Meets Modern Comfort
The home’s interior features a large open-concept living area that’s ideal for hosting family gatherings or game nights. The cozy, rustic atmosphere is balanced with modern amenities for a comfortable stay.
