Why they chose this property
This home is unique in its look. It provides plenty of space to stretch, relax, and enjoy your family and friends. This home is on average 5-10 minutes from a number of activities. East Bay being the closest and largest body of water, 5 minutes from our home. Mt Holiday provides year around outdoor activities. In the winter the ski hill is open as well as the tubing hill, in the summer they have zip lining and miles of walking trails. Timber Ridge campground which is the finish line for the VASA race and Ice Man Cometh is 5 minutes. Golf courses and many inland lakes are just a quick drive as is the grounds for the Horse Shows by the bay. We would love to host you during your vacation so you can experience all this area has to offer.
