The fourth bedroom has a dedicated private bathroom located directly adjacent — no bedroom shares a bathroom with any other. The lower level includes a sleeper sofa, bringing total sleeping capacity to 10 guests.
Two living areas give the group room to spread out. One features a wood-burning fireplace and is furnished for relaxed evenings; both are equipped with Smart TVs. The lower-level game room has a full-size pool table and its own Smart TV. The kitchen is fully equipped for group cooking. A gas grill is available on the deck.
Outdoor spaces include a private hot tub (available year-round), a brand-new fire pit added in spring 2026, a screened porch with wooded views — ideal for morning coffee without the bugs — and an expansive deck suited for group dining, cocktail hour, or late-night conversation. The property is surrounded by the forested landscape of The Galena Territory.
