The flex room also has a treadmill overlooking the lake, free weights, and other exercise equipment, including a detachable treadmill desk.For those visiting during the winter months, an indoor wood-burning fireplace and an outdoor firepit make this lakeside lodge the coziest place to spend a dreary fall or winter day.
