There are now nine (9) cottages on five (5) acres of land, all having slight to modest elevation, access to lake shore frontage on both sides of the lake.
The Camp, on a 5-acre narrows called an isthmus (like Panama), has water on both sides giving us the advantage of close proximity to the good fishing spots. This also allows plenty of open water for safe water skiing and any other water sports.
There is easy access to boat launches and docking facilities on the camp property and help is always available if needed.
The camp's sand beach is gently sloping and large enough to enjoy a refreshing swim, build a sandcastle, soak up the sun or any other beach activities you might enjoy.

Pets, being a part of every family, are welcome provided they are well behaved.
Please bring your own blankets to cover the furniture as shedding hair gives our cleaning crew a hard time.

To have you stay at the camp as a guest and a friend would be my pleasure!

P.S. Since the inception of this website my skills in the computer world have improved to the point that I prefer email contact rather than phone.
