About the host
Hosted by Dennis Terry
This has been our 2nd home since 2003. We love the location, how convenient to Burnside Island (Best ramp on Cumberland and great public golf course just renovated in 2008. Plays long for those golfers out there. We purchased the lot next door on 2005, decided no better time than now to build our future retirement home/replacement 2nd home. We had offers from a few that wanted to buy this home, but decided to go with season rental. We will try our best to make sure the property is clean and ready.
We hope you enjoy.
