Beach equipment
A rare find — beach equipment ready to go for your days by the sea.
My goal here was to provide a great location and create a space that heightens every one of your creative senses when you stay. In this I strived for "New York BoHo high rise on the water. " I have used local artists for a creative cozy retreat. There is 1 large screen tv in the main area and 1 tv in the bedroom and 1 tv in lower level. We sleep 4 comfortably with 2 bedrooms but can sleep 6 if needed with sofa bed. I would suggest only children after 4 adults. It is way too tight for 6 adults. The main floor bedroom is the master and it is on the upper level with en suite bathroom. The 2nd bedroom is on the lower level and shares space with the game area and slider to the deck. It has a room divider and the lower level can lock for privacy. Hot tub on the water, fire pit, grill, kayaks, paddle boat…all you need for a great getaway. The hot tub is treated at every stay. The kitchen is fully supplied for all your cooking needs. Access to the water, 5 min from great restaurants and boutique shopping in Peoria Heights. Pet friendly for 1 small dog. Pets MUST be crated when at the house alone. It is fenced but no grass so they must be walked for relief. Not allowed on furniture. Only registered guests allowed on property. No parties. Quiet time 10pm to 8am. No tampering with security equipment . No smoking, vaping. (any kind). Parking for 2 cars only. One to the side in the slip and one directly in front.
