Think of it like a hotel suite - at first, it seemed odd to have a king size bed in the “living room,” but in reality it is perfect for enjoying the view, listening to the waves and relaxing. The bed is sooo comfortable, luxurious. Reading on the deck and enjoying coffee, the best. Walked next door for dinner on the water. The view exceeds all expectations and confirmed for me that waterfront in the mountains can’t be beat! Lovely hosts. We loved it!
