The dream
A clean spare room for the lake: somewhere the grandkids land, drop wet swimsuits, and sleep to loons.
Form follows function
Bunkie 160 in black cedar shake, tucked into a stand of white pine above Lake Joseph. One large lake-facing window does most of the work; a sleeping loft and a Murphy bed do the rest.
