Tucked under a canopy of live oaks in Waterfront Park, this manufactured home is not your average lake cottage. Step inside and the whole thing opens up - wood-look flooring wall to wall, recessed lighting and ceiling fans throughout, and a kitchen that has no business being this good: deep apron-front sink, stainless appliances, rich shaker cabinetry, and an island with seating for the people who always end up in the kitchen anyway. Two bedrooms, two full baths, and no wasted square footage. Both baths bring double vanities and clean tile work instead of the usual afterthought, and the walk-in closet is the real deal. Everything is fresh, everything works, nothing on your to-do list but moving in. Outside, mature shade trees, room for the boat and the truck, and a covered porch built for coffee at sunrise and something colder at sunset. The location does the rest: minutes to Comal Park's 1,500-foot swim beach and boat ramps, Cranes Mill Park and marina, and the shops and taco joints along FM 2673 in Startzville. Guadalupe River tubing at Sattler, Gruene Hall, and New Braunfels are all a short drive. Canyon Lake living, no lake home price tag.
