Fall colors have been incredible this year. Fall walleyes are ready, grouse and deer are on the move. Docks are being pulled in 65 to 70 degree weather this week. Lots of listings to make the Longville area attractive. Golfing @ Ridgewood is still available until the hard freeze.

Most of the wateRead More...
