Sleeping arrangements include a first-floor queen bedroom for guests who prefer to minimize stairs, two upstairs queen bedrooms with panoramic water views, and an upstairs family-style sleeping suite with a twin-over-full bunk bed.

Charcoal lighter fluid and a grill lighter are kept in the gazebo for use with the charcoal grill; please return gazebo items after use.
Connect around family meals, games, and evenings together—or find a quiet corner to read, work, or simply enjoy the view.
