The suites

Three suites, each with its own patio.

Three private suites, each with its own separate entrance. It’s ideal for three couples, or for grown children coming home, who want to share the lake and the kitchen but still have a door of their own, not a shared hallway.

The primary bath: soaking tub under the skylight, twin vanities, walk-in shower
Runs itself
