Central air is key for sleeping on those sultry summer nights. Many folks enjoy sitting on the porch at night with windows open (has screens) and listening to the relaxing sounds of the water. If you like daytime water activities, is only about 3 feet deep at the most near the end of the 50'dock and just gradually gets deeper further out. It's a great spot for kids and adults alike.  Weeds are scarce in this part of the lake, which results in a much more enjoyable swim! The large deck has comfortable seating with a table and some lounge furniture along with a gas grill and a charcoal grill. If you don't have a boat, one can be rented and brought to the dock for a very reasonable price for the week. A rowboat is included in the rental price, however. There is also a campfire pit located at the edge of the lawn/beach for roasting marshmellows with the family!
