The proximity to the lake was CLOSE and easily accessible. A flat and gentle walk from the back porch to the covered dock and boat house. The hot tub was hot and clean, and private with a lake view.
My favorite spot, the porch swing on the dock.

The property has great views and direct access to to the river. Early January was mostly vacant which was peaceful and relaxing, exactly what we wanted. Hot tub needs lots of maintenance, only 20 of the 42 jets were working and the control panel was unreadable. The owner said that repair was scheduled. No dining table and only 3 stools at the bar. The deck, firepit, and boathouse were very nice.
