A fully equipped kitchen allows you to whip up your favorite meals and tasty dishes. You can expect to find the appliances, utensils, and cookware you need to feel right at home.

Access to Tichigan Lake can be found just steps away from the deck. Whether it’s a peaceful ride on the kayaks or a fun ride on your boat, the main body of water is a short ride away from the property. Be sure to bring your fishing poles and some bait as there are plenty of fish to be caught in the canal directly off the dock!
