Why they chose this property

This is a unique property... a cottage on a peninsula surrounded by water in three sides. it is the prettiest lot on the lake. Also known as "Blackberry Hill." One of our guests prepared this drone footage as a gift for us.

What makes this property unique

A lovely lake, very very private lake...three sides of water! No gas motors. Swim. Fish. Row. Hike. Relax. Watch the stars from your private deck.

This is the choice lot of the lake! It just doesn't get any better than this!
