After a day on the water, enjoy the convenience of a fish cleaning station and additional storage located in the pump house and shed. Enjoy privacy with the newly installed privacy fence. Whether you are unwinding on the porch, casting a line for bass, or spending the day boating, this home offers lakefront living at its finest.
