When you sit on "your" dock, you are just back into the inlet enough with a no wake area to not receive the constant pounding of waves, but you can still see out onto the main part of lake Marion. The water is not affected by the tide and has 4 ft of water at the dock. A few more items to note is the beautiful landscaping with some curbing around the home with an 8-zone irrigation system, the fenced in back yard, circular driveway, crawl space has a vapor barrier, there is a security system, a shed wired with electric and counters for workspace and the home has a water softener system.
