WELCOME TO THE LAKE
House Tour
Your visit will be greatly enhanced by the natural beauty of the area. Rolling wooded hills and valleys, interspersed by
beautiful farms, reflect the pastoral nature of this part of New York. Tully Lake is a renowned bass fishing lake; you will
note in the area plenty of wildlife - ducks, geese, deer, beavers, cranes and a multitude of other birds. This is truly a place
to rest, relax and enjoy memorable times with friends and family.
When we designed the Lake House, we aimed for a home that would maximize the location, offer plenty of space for
entertaining and relaxing as well as all the amenities people expect today. We hope you enjoy this tour!

Retreat Room
Guests enter the Great Room from either the north or south porches. The room features a fireplace, a white-washed pine board cathedral ceiling, two skylights and plenty of comfortable seating. Views from the ample windows and doors are primarily of the lake north and south. A small pass through from the adjacent kitchen allows for conversation between the kitchen and guests relaxing by the fire.
The Kitchen is fully equipped with a gas stove, electric oven, microwave, dishwasher, counter space with five stools as well as a large oak table that seats up to eight. The traditional black and white tile floor throughout the kitchen, hall and baths is a throw back to New York City apartment buildings where my wife grew up.
This room is fully set up as your home away from Home Office. The room is arranged with comfortable seating and reading lights; it also has a small TV and a CD player.
The Master Suite features a pillow top king size bed, a built in head board, a separate deck going outside to the private east side of the house, and a very comfortable reading chair and table. The windows face east and offer a view of the lake through the trees. A large master closet is off the main room. The Master suite bath includes a jet tub, stall shower and double sinks; a linen closet is in the bathroom as well. An east facing window provides light as well as beautiful views of the lake and trees.
Down the hall from the Kitchen are two guest rooms on your right. The Guest Room offers a queen size bed, a large closet and a nice view of the lawn and south lake. Kate's Room (named after our daughter) features two twin beds, a walk-in closet and windows facing the south and east. The windows afford the room great cross ventilation. Both bedrooms offer plenty of storage in chests and the closets.
Traveling up the stairs to the second floor, you enter a small alcove room. Going through this room, you enter the large second floor Retreat Room, a room that, due to the bow window, seems as if it is in the trees. The view from this room is east - it is one of our favorite rooms for watching TV or a movie. This room includes a very comfortable sofa, two rocking chairs and two twin beds for another sleeping area.
