Swimming was good, shallow enough for young kids, has a beach too. Water very clean. Loved watching birds at feeders 1-2 feet away from us. 3 season porch was wonderful for card, board games, TV. Little kids loved the play kitchen, toys you had. Close to a big playground in Crosby, ice cream shops, mini golf. My neighbor kids wanted to move into the house and gave our vacation a " 4 thumbs up!" Owners were wonderful, easy to reach.
