This property was first developed in the 1920’s as a fishing & hunting camp attracting guests from all over the world. During this time drift boats were stored and repaired on the property. In the 1940’s additional cottages were added and the property became a popular vacation stop for visitors wanting to get away from it all and to enjoy the great outdoors.

In recent years the great grandson of the original developer has operated the property as a recreational / waterfront cabin rental. In October of 2007 the Imagine group purchased the business and is now offering to share this unique property by providing for sale 12 strata cottages including 120 feet of common riverfront and dock.
