Great location on the lake. With 4 bedroom and 4 bathrooms our entire family felt like they all had a main bedroom suite. House has well stocked kitchen, plenty of room for entire family, and an absolute great 600sqft main deck with a couple tables, grill, fire pit, and two sitting areas. As noted in other reviews and in the house description there are 160 steps down to the lake. Although lot of steps the staircase is configured great with comfortable stair height and plenty of landings to rest ( by end of week you'll make it to top without stopping). Really liked the owner kept the garage open with access to some tools/WD40 to quiet some screen door squeaks. We really like this section of the lake for access to town and will definitely consider this property next time.
