A: The three mansions, each very similar architerctually, but vastly different in furninshings and style. One will be rather old fashioned, with a kitchen and furnishings that haven't changed much since the 60s. The second will be much more up-to-date, but comfortable and child-friendly. The third will be very sleek and modern.
B: The original Lodge - the family lives in part of the lodge, the rest is open to the public.
C: The nicest of the accomodations offered, three beach cottages, furnished with twin or bunk beds and a bath and stove and sink.
D: The mid-range accomodations. These smaller "shacks" will offer a half bath with a makeshift shower. No cooking facilities are provided.
E: The Marina - The marina will have several things for sell, mostly fishing equipment or accessories for beach play. There are also a couple of gas pumps for refueling of the boats tied up at the dock.
F: The Diner - specializing in fresh caught seafood
G: An outdoor public restroom, so sand is not tracked into the marina or diner buildings.
H: The roads within the gated community are all beautiful cobblestone.
I: The roads by the lodge are just your typical asphalt/concrete surface
J: A roundabout (rotary, traffic circle, whatever they call it in your part of the world) to help keep the traffic at a moderate pace and to allow for the beautiful fountain (which, if all goes well, will actually be a working microminiature fountain)
K: The fountain
L: This small stone structure will house a guard/gatekeeper
M: Beautiful white wrought-iron fencing surrounds the community
N: The gates to the community - I've just found some very slow motors. I'm trying now to work out how to make the gates operational at the touch of a switch
O: Garages. When the community was built in the 60s, these would have all been one-car garages. I haven't decided yet if one or more of them will be updated to larger multi-car garages.
P: The Gazebo
Q: The garden shed and greenhouse
R: The vegetable garden - it will contain pumpkins, tomatoes, zucchini, lettuce, carrots, corn, and a few other leafy type things (maybe some cauliflower)
S: The beautiful line of peony bushes (may end up being roses - I'm not sure yet)
T: The stone bluffs
U: Access to the accomadations
V: This gravel area will provide space for a couple of campers for folks who bring their accomodations with them.
W: The parking area
X: The public beach
Y: The clothing optional beach
Z: Pathways from the lodge to the diner, marina and beach
1: Small vendor kiosks selling surfboards, towels, sunscreen, floaties, burgers, hot dogs and whatever else the vendor think might help them turn a buck
2: The stairs cut into the stone bluffs to provide access to the beach for the residents of the houses
3: The boat dock - sometimes a few folks can be seen fishing from the end of the dock - a few swimmers have been "hooked" over the years
4: This area will be filled with surfers and swimmers
5: Paved sidewalks and driveways
