Each of the rooms benefit from striking waterside views of the outside space. Gail adds: “We have a beautiful decking and windows that open right out to make the home an inside-out house. “We also have the boathouse, because we have a rowing boat that we enjoy taking out on the water. “Our daughters would come and spend summers here, and I have two grandchildren, so that has been really nice.” | third party Photo: contributed
