Description

On the banks of the Boardman . . . and in a sea of thousands of acres of state land, try and imagine the endless options for outdoor recreation! Blue Ribbon trout fishing, kayaking, hiking, horseback riding, snowmobiling, skiing, and hunting, all at your doorstep. The new, custom-crafted riverfront log home incorporates lumber from the site that was milled by the owner. Multiple finishing techniques were used to create one-of-a-kind trim ensembles, flooring inlays, vanities, and the kitchen island....On the banks of the Boardman . . . and in a sea of thousands of acres of state land, try and imagine the endless options for outdoor recreation!
