About this property
The hill private fishing pier NOT water front
Perfect weekend getaway close to home!
Here at the hill you forget everything going on in life. As you walk in you feel the coziness; with your own private pier and boat deck! While in the hill you absolutely love the bear theme. While the fishing pier is not located in front it is located a few steps away.
While in the area make sure to check out Brownsville zoo & museum.
If you’re bring boat please book in any of our other cabins that are waterfront. A boat ramp is located in Adolph Thomes Jr County Park.
