Back at the house, swim a lap in the 12' x 24' private pool. Relax in the great room in front of the large flat-screen TV, or log onto the WiFi. There is plenty of room for dinner or family game nights around the two dining tables. A bar to the kitchen provides additional seating and a convenient pass-through.
