I was gonna post similar... this house is in a really nice spot this year (If you don't mind being wedged in between two busy marinas or the alligators that have been recently spotted in the lake)

Also, this is more like a two story pier, not an actual boat "dock" there is no slip to store your boat. Still nice either way.

Drives me crazy to see all the Facebook replies w people begging and praying to win the house saying they want to live in it etc. Every year. No one realizes the INSANE amount of taxes you have to pay to be able to live in it, i dont know if anyone has EVER won one of these and successfully been able to live in it?

If only it were a 2.4 million cash option that matched the home value and everything haha

I mean any amount of cash is great but you will prob walk away with like 300k at best after taxes which is a kick in the teeth vs being able to live in the home you just won.
