Located in the desirable lake community of Candlewood Shores, Thistle Cottage beautifully blends the timeless charm of a classic lakeside cottage with the open floor plan today's buyers love. Ideal as a full-time residence or weekend retreat, this inviting ranch offers warmth, character, and flexible living spaces.
