About this property
Scenic Escape: River Paradise
Enjoy your morning coffee with a scenic river view from the front deck and listen to the peaceful sounds of nature. Spend time with your loved ones around the fire pit or challenge them to a game of bumper pool in the sunroom. Located only 5 minutes from local restaurants and 25 minutes to French Lick. Great for fishermen with additional parking spot for a small boat (17’ x 48’). The public White River ramp in Shoals and West Boggs Lake are only a short drive away.
The space
Cozy 2 bedroom home with large front deck and fire pit facing the White River. Cottage has large front porch and outdoor area on a hill for expansive river views. New deck added on river bank for fishing and steps for water access. Large yard has plenty of room for lawn games or activities. Includes washer and dryer, games, puzzles, darts, and a bumper pool table.
Bedroom 1: Queen bed
Bedroom 2: Double bed
Close proximity to the essentials but far enough for peace and quiet. Grocery store and restaurants 5 minutes away. Drive to French Lick is less than half an hour.
17’x48’ Gravel parking pad for a trailer or boat. No circle or turnaround, must back in trailer. See photos.
