I have only seen water under there a couple of times and only 6-8 feet deep max. A majority of the time it is dry like in the picture though. It does sit not far from where the St Francis and Languil rivers meet. About 5 miles downstream is where it dumps into the MS River. Roughly a 35 foot rise though (between the pictures).

The whole thing is going to have to be gutted though.



EDIT: For another perspective, this picture is the same side of the house as the last picture above.....
