When it`s time for bed, the coffee table rolls away between the dining table and kitchen counter, leaving ample space to unpack a full sized memory foam pull out bed. Pillows are conveniently located in the bedroom closet. The slatted window shutters easily close to ensure no light slips in during the night.

Outside, the picnic table is perfect for rolling out paper for crackin crabs and crackin some cold ones before heading across the street to Northside Park to catch the sunset on the bay.
