Location, Location, Location!:
The house is conveniently located across from the R-27A marker which is between Halesford Bridge and the SML State Park. The Halesford Bridge area and Bridgewater Plaza are about 5 minutes by boat and 10 minutes by car. Here you will find several restaurants, shops, game arcade, miniature golf, and an ice cream parlor. There are also several marinas in this area that have fuel and rent boats and jet skis. The State Park is about 10 minutes by boat and 15 minutes by car. It features a boat dock, sandy beach, concession stand, nature tours and plenty of open area. The Westlake area is about 15 minutes by car and is inaccessible by boat. It has a Kroger grocery store, CVS pharmacy, several specialty shops, more restaurants and a movie theater. A new, larger Shoprite grocery store is only 5 minutes from the house.
More Features:
The house is located on the end of a quiet cove with few waves and very little boat traffic. My kids love to swim and fish off the dock and there is a canoe available on the dock so you can float around the cove or paddle around the lake. There is a partially covered slip for one boat. To make it easier for docking during drought conditions when the water level is low and to make it better for swimming we have a 10' X 20' floater which also gives more area to tie up jet skis, if needed. Directly across the street from the house is a large open community area that is great for soccer, football, kickball or Frisbee and can be used for overflow parking. Two fenced tennis courts are also located here and my sons and I play tennis and throw the lacrosse ball here. But if you are a serious tennis player, the courts are a little cracked and not in the best condition for serious tennis. The tennis courts also have a basketball hoop and the paved surface can be used for other activities.
