Scenic Escape: River Paradise

Enjoy your morning coffee with a scenic river view from the front deck and listen to the peaceful sounds of nature. Spend time with your loved ones around the fire pit or challenge them to a game of bumper pool in the sunroom. Located only 5 minutes from local restaurants and 25 minutes to French Lick. Great for fishermen with additional parking spot for a small boat (17’ x 48’). The public White River ramp in Shoals and West Boggs Lake are only a short drive away.
