The shoreline in front of the home has cattails and a new dock (2022) which allows for 1 boat up to 26 feet. 'The dock is 60" wide with a handrail on one side. The deck on the shoreline is also new and a great place to enjoy a cup of coffee, watch boats go by and occasionally see seaplanes take off and land.
