A spacious dining area easily accommodates a large farmhouse-style table, making it ideal for entertaining and sharing stories from the day’s adventures.  The fully remodeled bathroom adds a touch of luxury with pine finishes, a walk-in shower, and updated vanity.  Outdoor spaces are designed for gathering and enjoying the Up North lifestyle. Sip your morning coffee on the front porch, enjoy dinner on the back deck, and finish the evening around one of the two fire pits under the northern sky.
