Welcome to 6985 W Riverbend Rd, a home that feels like a deep breath of fresh air. Nestled along the peaceful shores of Lake Rousseau, this beautifully remodeled 3-bedroom, 2-bath retreat has become the heart of its community — the house where everyone gathers. Evenings here unfold with laughter, music, and dancing under painted skies, while days are filled with fishing, boating, and quiet moments surrounded by nature. Inside, a spacious living room with a cozy fireplace invites conversation, while the remodeled kitchen and baths bring modern comfort. The primary suite offers a bonus room, walk-in closet, and private access to the wraparound deck that hugs three sides of the home. Outside, you’ll find lush gardens alive with butterflies, two bat houses, a private dock with lift, full-house generator, four-car garage, and two-bay RV storage with a 50-amp plug. Lake Rousseau is famed for its serene beauty, legendary bass fishing, and abundant wildlife — a place where every sunset feels like a blessing. This isn’t just a house… it’s a feeling.
