Sun rises and sunsets will be enjoyed from a perfect back deck overlooking the 100' white sandy beach and is shaded all day beneath huge live oaks. Want to enjoy same from indoors? The bonus porch is heated and air-conditioned and offers spectacular lake / beach views from its three walls of windows.

Great property, right on lake w tie ups for our boat. Beautiful view of lake. 3rd bedroom was at least 10 degrees warmer than rest of house which made sleeping less comfortable.

Short getaway

Very nice but older home in great neighborhood with beautiful views at lakeside. A short drive to launch boat. Great host. We had problem with frig not cooling. Called & he took care of it while we were out boating on the lake. Can’t beat that for customer service!
