Plenty of space & stairs! For 2 of us, we lived on the main floor and walked down to the pier a couple times. Used the noodle provided and hopped in the water....refreshing, but no ladder to climb out.We enjoyed the screened in porch, but did not use the deck, as mosquitos were a bit too much, and we were spending time elsewhere with family.I did use the kitchen each morning for breakfast and found the copper cookware and electric stove easy to use and clean up...plus plenty of tools, utensils and containers. we kept the fans on each night and opened the windows, due to high 80 degree temps and no AC. the basement was a good 5-7 degrees cooler and so spacious.Bathrooms were spacious and well lit
