About This Home
Welcome to your little piece of peaceful river life... I may be a simple cabin, but I have a lot of memories waiting to be made. Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street, I offer the kind of easy living where mornings begin with coffee overlooking the water and evenings end with the sounds of nature surrounding you. I sit on leased land with an affordable $550/year land lease, giving you the opportunity to enjoy a relaxing waterfront retreat without the worries and responsibilities of traditional ownership. My location gives you direct access to the main channel with steps leading down to the water - perfect for fishing, relaxing, and enjoying everything river life has to offer - while my setting keeps you safely out of the flood zone. Inside, I'm cozy, quaint, and designed for connection. My open-concept living space allows everyone to be together, whether you're cooking, playing games, relaxing after a day on the water, or simply enjoying time with family and friends. My large screened-in deck facing the water is where you'll want to spend your mornings sipping coffee, your afternoons soaking in the view, and your evenings unwinding under the stars. I also offer practical extras, including a carport, two storage sheds across the drive, and space to park your boat so your river adventures are always ready to go. I've recently received new plumbing, and I'm ready for my next chapter with someone who appreciates simple living, peaceful surroundings, and making the most of every season. If you're looking for a place to slow down, cast a line, gather with loved ones, and enjoy the beauty of the water - I might just be the cabin you've been waiting for.
