We have owned a 14-sided lake home for several years. It has been the scene of many blissful weekends of relaxing, swimming, boating, and serious games of spoons, Rumikub, and Guess Who!!! In 21 years of ownership, we have not put one drop of paint on the walls or decorated in the least. We had decided that this year we would remodel the upper level. In February, water changed our plans when the service main cracked flooding the lower level!! We have spent the majority of the summer there remodeling. After changing some walls, we now have more usable spaces and have increased to 4 bedrooms from 3. Here are some before, during, and after pics. I did not take pics of some of the rooms, so I will be editing this blog as soon as I have them!
