    The main floor deck, upstairs from the patio and just off the cabin's great room, features a living-room style seating area with weather-resistant furniture.

    This "outdoor room" is perhaps the cabin's most relaxing open-air space and offers a perfect vantage point for enjoying what the lake has to offer in terms of scenery, wildlife and remarkable sunsets.

    Overhead fans add the perfect note to this raised deck space custom-made for sunny mornings and lazy afternoons. The deck is constructed from a composite decking material that's actually made from recycled plastic bags and wood chips. The composite planks are pattern-stamped to give the surface a look of natural wood grain.

    An outdoor fireplace, which ties into the same chimney structure as the great room and patio fireplaces, ensures that this beautiful space can be enjoyed year-round.
