First Sand Beach – A sugar sand bathing beach lies to the east of the property, and a little further, Second Sand Beach (a Township Park) is favored for camping, swimming and recreation. Here you can launch your canoe, tube or kayak, and wade. The home on the property sits upon a bluff, with beautiful views of the setting sunset toward the west. Further to the east, on the 500++ feet of shoreline, it appears there may be a more gradual slope that could be climbed down to reach the water's edge. Stairways are sometimes built on such banks to provide private access to the lake.

The Village offers shopping, schools, churches, and a good hospital. Summer activities in the area include sightseeing, water fall viewing, and golf. Fall Color Tours are spectacular.
