About the host
Hosted by Courtney Iwanicki
My husband, my parents and myself decided to go in together and purchase a lake house for us to spend vacation time at and as a place that others would be able to rent and enjoy.
Why they chose this property
We spent almost 2 years looking for what we consider the "perfect place". That included a cottage/cabin with minimal repairs (because who wants to spend your vacation time making repairs), being on a lake with a sandy bottom so the kids can play and being within riding distance of ORV trails. It took us a while, but we finally found what we consider to be the perfect place!!
What makes this property unique
One of the great things about this home is it's open main level floor plan. My dad is in a wheelchair and he get's around great on the main level. Hopefully this fall we will be installing ramps for the front porch and back deck!!!
