What the owner loves about this home

Lots of land for a lake house. The screened in porch is a great place to unwind after a long day. No mosquitoes! Lots of room for entertainment. It's peaceful and quiet. The fish cleaning station is also great to clean veggies from the garden in. Eagles nest in the two trees by the lake.
