About the host
Hosted by Faith M. Lucchesi
A family-owned business, BD Realty is a bunch of us who hope to offer vacation get-aways to others. We enjoy spending time at the house when we can get away and be together and we hope you love it as much as we do! We strive to eat, drink and be merry. We hope you do too! Doing it at the lake is a bonus!
Why they chose this property
The location provides for a quiet, peaceful stay. This is a 'get-away' property, and if you love wildlife, you can see Eagles, Bobcats, Fox, Deer and many smaller, beautiful critters by just strolling quietly in the woods. Of course, you have to know how to look for them. We love the lake and playing in the water. Please note that the pipeline that was installed recently that runs under the lake also went through our property and severely damaged our landscaping, and the emerald ash borer damaged our trees. We are working to replace all, but it will take a few years as I will NOT use herbicides on the property for your safety!
What makes this property unique
The hot tub in the three seasons room followed by several rounds of pool while watching the big screen HDTV!
