Awesome location for walking our dogs. View is lovely, great for just chilling out. I think it’s the perfect fishing spot if you have a small boat. My only suggestions would be for a few better cooking pans and a some pieces of Tupperware for left overs. And the deck needs to be refinished. Maybe next year, because we would return, enjoyed the quiet.
