The fire pit on the lower deck is a place to start great conversations.
The best conversations always seem to happen around the fire. There’s something about the crackling flames and flickering light that just encourages people to open up and share their stories. Whether it’s sharing ghost stories around a campfire or swapping tales of love and loss by the fireplace, there’s something special about sharing stories by firelight.
