(The yard can be reached by going down stairs from the deck, or by walking on either side of the house.) An aluminum dock at shore level is in place from approximately April through October -- no stairs to climb to get onto the dock. Swim off the dock. You can get into the water from the shore (although the bottom isn't sandy) to the right of the dock. We keep the shoreline to the left of the dock in its natural state. There's good fishing, including walleye, panfish, bluegill, and trout. A fire pit is in the back yard. (Note that, per State regulations, due to oak wilt and pests, firewood from a source farther than 20 miles from our house can't be brought in. You can buy firewood from our manager at a reasonable price.)
