Stay in the trees with the birds from the amazing covered deck and patio, enjoy the quiet and melt away your stress. There are plenty of options to pass your time including exploring Amish country, golfing, biking, Mohican, sipping wine at the wineries, or just relaxing. Enjoy the great outdoors with outdoor fire pit. All amenities included for a carefree getaway. AV is a private lake. All common areas including beaches, clubhouse, boating, and outdoor pool are reserved for property owners only.
The most unique qualities of this property are the 2 large, separate and covered deck and patio. It allows you to experience the great outdoors no matter the weather. The upper covered deck is fully furnished and has a gas outdoor firepit. The lower patio is also fully furnished and creates a totally different experience.
