The widened driveway, two storage sheds (one with a washer/dryer), and patio space make it easy to host a barbecue, tinker on a project, or simply relax after a day on the water. Don't forget the roll down sunshades to block sun or just create additional privacy to enjoy all that this intimate screened-in and covered space has to offer!
