Or, if you prefer, sit back, relax, and enjoy the view from our Adirondack chairs. Kids will love playing in the sand and splashing around in the shallow water by the shore. The yard is set up for some fun games such as corn hole or frisbee or just toss the football.



As the sun goes down, gather around one of the two fire pits by the shoreline or closer to the house, complete with Adirondack-chair seating. Make memories and s'mores or tell some fun ghost stories
