The Property:
Hope Floats is approximately a 2,200 square foot cottage that has remained in the same family since the 1950s. Over the years a second story was added, doubling the space, and a large garage was built (we are open to renting the garage for an additional fee).

There are four private bedrooms, an open kitchen, dining, and living room. The laundry room is perfect for washing and drying your clothes after a long day of playing. The upstairs has two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a large common space for additional sleeping quarters, playing games, and watching good movies.

Hope Floats is surrounded by large trees that provide ample amount of shade and privacy. It is a short walk to the water and dock. The property between the cottage and water is an easement with adjacent neighbors. The easement can be used for overflow parking, throwing a football, and taking in the sun.

Summary: Lots of space and well supplied with dishes and pans. Owners communicated well and described the place perfectly. My only complaint was there was no A/C (which they disclosed) but on two nights it was well over 75 indoors (even with fans). I recommend putting. Few split units im for the rare heat waves.
