You can even enjoy lake views from the Cylake roomCO, a terrace level utility room with a full bathroom, washer/dryer space, and tons of shelves for storage all specifically designed to transition from the outdoor pace to the indoor space. Two steps down the terrace level hallway and youCOre in the bar and billiards area where everyone can relax, watch a ballgame in the TV room and unwind from a hot day out on the lake.
