TC Tiny House Near Boardman Lake Trail

This tiny, cozy, 600SF home on lg, partially wooded lot has everything you need to be comfortable. Great, mixed-use location:1 block to Boardman Lake Trail (access at Center St), 1 mile to the Bay & downtown. < 1 mile to Brick Wheels bike & X-country ski rental. We like being able to walk or bike into town on the non-motorized pathway along Boardman River. As of June, 2025, a second home has been constructed at back of property, ~40 feet behind Tiny House. It is not yet occupied.

The property description was spot on and the place is well kept. You can walk into TC and easily to the Boardman trail. I’ll even say easily to the best section of the trail. I’d stay here again.

A nice location in TC for a couple of family! The host did a great job with tips on where to go to eat , things to see, etc — there is a giant map on the wall that is helpful and shows just how close you are to lots of things!
