The Home of Laidback Luxury
When you close your eyes, where do you want to be? Do you hear a lake softly lapping against the shore, or see sunlight glittering against the water? Your friends next to you, laughing and clinking their glasses of wine. Maybe it's the soft sound of snow rustling winter pine trees, or the cold air rushing by as you ski down a mountain. Others may smell the rich scent of dinner cooking from an open kitchen, or taste the sweetness of a fresh baked pastry with a hot coffee. Some dream of a fall-wonderland, where trees of gold, red, and orange bejewel the hillsides.
