Great lil Time Capsule
We had a great time at the property but can be a little hard to find. It’s directly adjacent to the post office.

Beautiful
This home was not only clean and well maintained, it is just a piece of history. This lively town is so peaceful. Our view of the 4th of July fireworks were perfect. I would definitely rate this home a 10 out of 10.
