With windows throughout, nearly every room boasts breathtaking views of the sparkling water, providing a natural atmosphere that feels like an endless vacation. Here at the SonShine Cove you can enjoy your morning coffee on the expansive 590sqft deck as you watch the sunrise over the lake, or unwind in the evening amidst family and friends roasting s'mores by the firepit. Lay on the grass and stargaze in the evenings, or play tag with your grandkids under the mature pine trees.
