My grandfather (Pawpaw) built this house himself in the mid 1980’s. He stayed busy into his early 90’s; he enjoyed mowing his own yard, cutting his own fire wood, building deer stands and fighting off beavers and alligators. He loved nature and all it had to offer-duck hunting, deer hunting and, well, just about any kind of hunting. He enjoyed feeding and the birds, squirrels, and deer on his property. His pride and joy was the pond. He loved to watch the generations of his family fish and enjoy his pond. He would wait to feed the fish when the great grandkids were around just to watch their faces light up. If you reeled in a big one he would get the scale so he could weigh it. If it was a ‘good one’ he’d sometimes make you toss it back to grow bigger. Comforts have been added to the house since the 80’s. More recently it has been remodeled but it will always be ‘Pawpaw’s Place’. We are happy to share Pawpaw’s Place with you and yours. Use it, enjoy it, and most of all please take good care of it.
