The fully equipped kitchen has all high-end stainless appliances: dishwasher, fridge/freezer with ice maker, gas range, standard drip coffeemaker, microwave, toaster, slow cooker and many helpful gadgets. There are three (3) stools for the bar, looking into the kitchen, table seating for 4 or 6, snuggly. This area has such sparkling water views.... it is just beautiful.
