Inside, you’ll find a thoughtfully designed space perfect for families and groups. The home boasts a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances, a breakfast bar, and a coffee station complete with a Keurig and syrups for your morning pick-me-up. Inside, the home is thoughtfully designed for relaxation and fun. The main living room features a sectional sofa and a smart TV, ideal for movie nights or cozy evenings by the gas fireplace. A second living room offers additional space to relax, read, or play board games. For even more entertainment, head to the separate game room, equipped with a pool table, dartboard, smart TV, and various games.

The outdoor space is just as inviting as the interior. With direct river access, four kayaks and life vests included, and a sprawling yard, you can enjoy endless hours of fun by the water. For those who prefer to stay on land, the firepit and front porch provide the perfect spots to unwind and enjoy the fresh air. Parking is a breeze, with space for three vehicles and a boat trailer.

We’re thrilled to announce the addition of a brand-new hot tub, providing the ultimate spot to unwind after a day of exploring or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Whether soaking under the stars or starting your morning with a relaxing dip, the hot tub adds a special touch to your stay.
