This leads out to a spacious deck with a Weber 2 burner gas grill, and patio furniture/umbrella, offering beautiful sunset views. Don’t worry if you do not want to be out in the elements--there is also a roomy screened-in porch to take in the sights and sounds of nature and is perfect for enjoying your morning coffee fresh from our Keurig with coffee pods included in your rental!
