A good part of your time will be spent under the gazebo on the large 700 square foot gated deck nature gazing. All photos in the display were taken from the deck, on the premises without alterations. Some say even the pictures do not do it justice. At night, the dark skies hang so low millions of stars hover above the roof top. It seems one could reach up and pluck a star right off its heavenly seat.
