Why they chose this property

We consider ourselves fortunate to have found this property to buy on this great lake as they are scarce. Moccasin Cove in my opinion is the best one on the lake.

What makes this property unique

Lake Sara is a great little lake near Effingham, Illinois with a lot of things to do. It has 2 marinas. You can visit by water Pinky's to eat and drink and even rent or launch a boat at the marina there. It has a great beach area with lots of activities for the kids and the adults. The fishing is good here on the west end of the lake. There are also 2 golf courses on the lake if that is your thing. You'll be amazed at the beautiful homes that line this lake. Great 4th of July fireworks. Fun times.
