The sites are just a few hundred feet from the shore, close enough to walk down to enjoy the lake. We are also pet friendly to friendly pets. If your pet is friendly to other pets and humans, bring them along! We do ask that they be on a leash while out on the property. You can water ski, fish, boat, and swim right in front of our property or go for a 10-minute ride by boat to the main lake. Anchor right here in front of the property to keep your boat conveniently located during your stay! In addition, the fishing is superb right here off of our bank.
