The main cottage features a covered porch overlooking the lake and an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living space with natural wood accents, a farmhouse sink, and a cozy fireplace. A standout feature is the spiral staircase, crafted from a tree harvested right on the island, leading to two upstairs bedrooms. One includes built-in bunks, while the lake-facing bedroom has its own private balcony—the perfect spot to unwind or fall asleep to the sound of the waves. The backyard is designed for comfort and functionality, with a state-approved septic system, gathering deck, outdoor shower, guest house with a half bath, and a utility building for additional storage.
