Located in the Blakeslee community, a prestigious community because of its quiet, serene setting, and the numerous amenities available. The large, wooded lots provide a feeling of privacy and plenty of play area for the family. Walk or bike to the dock in a few minutes (the home is closer to the lake than what VRBO says!!!)...boat rentals are available at Bill's Marina. The community is fairly level and arranged in a circular (1.6 miles) fashion which makes it perfect for biking, jogging or just an afternoon stroll. In addition, there are 5 miles of hiking trails within the community, as well as trails for snowmobiles and ATV's. Deer, wild turkeys and other wildlife are often seen in the fields by the entrance to the community. The indoor 25' x 50' pool is located in the Community Center (closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and open Thursdays and Fridays from Noon to 8PM, and Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays from 10AM - 6PM) and includes a large club room with TV, comfortable chairs, tables and chairs and pool table. Two tennis courts and two pickle-ball courts, basketball court, soccer field and outdoor playground are all adjacent to the community center. The Community Center is literally across the street from the end of our driveway!!!
