PINE NOTCH - VENTURE OUTSIDE
50 Private Acres
Our 50 acres have a network of trails that circle the center 3 acres and branch off from there. Some wind through the woods and ravines and others are a gentle stroll through the trees with vistas of the mountains. Take a morning walk, sit on one of the many stumps or stones and just listen to nothing but nature…..
Loon Lake (Chester) Public Beach and Boat Launch (2 mins)
.9 miles away is the beach and boat launch. An easy entry for canoes and kayaks as well as just relaxing by the water. This lake is still a "local" gem so it is not crowded. Across the street is the Loon Lake Market & Deli so grab a sandwich and an icecream and enjoy.
