Lil’ Hickory may be tiny, but it’s packed with comfort and charm. Inside, you’ll find a comfy queen-size bed that sleeps two, a well-equipped kitchen with a stove, dishwasher, and Keurig coffee maker—perfect for slow mornings with coffee by the water. Fire up the BBQ grill outside and enjoy your meals steps from the lake.
