This shot shows the large island accessed by the travertine bridge that spans over lower lazy river. The entertaining island has a firepit, sitting area, and a 10 person spa with stacked stone spilways, and the spa has its own small beach entry.

In addition to the fire pit and seating area, the island is home to lush palm trees to provide the tropical feel that the homeowners wanted for their oasis. A gas tiki torch can also be seen providing a hint of what is to come when the sun begins to set.
