Plenty of space for family to spread out
Nice home; well-equipped for all needs except WIFI and cable TV. Being near the bridge with lots of traffic noise was a minus for a quiet morning and evening. River and lake access great; dock great; boats and life jackets great. A few too many dead heads around, but that is a personal taste.
