Located in a small enclave of vacation homes, there are very few surrounding neighbors and really... that's kind of the point of this place, isn't it?. Across the river is state land which is completely land locked and will never have visitors or be built on.
The home is private, secluded, and picturesque allowing you the freedom to enjoy yourselves while still being just a short drive to restaurants, stores and other conveniences. The surrounding cities and towns provide adequate dining options and we make recommendations in our guidebooks.
