The outdoor pavilion showcases cathedral ceilings with large, exposed beams and features a fully equipped bar with chiseled-edge granite countertops, stainless refrigerator, dishwasher, large sink, Blackstone grill top, custom shelving, and rustic cabinetry with black hardware. The expansive hand-laid flagstone patio overlooks the water and is complemented by a stone retaining wall, picnic area, Adirondack seating, and custom wood barstools. Enjoy the outdoor shower, oversized hot tub with lake and wooded views, and a hand-laid stone fire-pit surrounded by luxury outdoor furniture.
