Approaching the hotel, guests are greeted by a multi-level white property topped with a charcoal roof and balconies overlooking the lake. Inside, soothing materials and a calm color palette reflect the serene setting, inclusive of clean whites, natural woods, navy, grey, and gold tones. Shiplap walls and nautical artwork complement communal wooden tables, leather sofas, custom wood bed frames, hand-woven bedspreads, natural fiber rugs, and hardwood floors found in many rooms.

In its first phase of development, the family-owned and operated property was designed by Post Company (formerly known as Studio Tack), in collaboration with The Brooklyn Home Company, led by brother-sister developer Bill Caleo and designer Lyndsay Caleo Karol and her husband, the artist Fitzhugh Karol. The Lake House's redevelopment represents the third generation of family members, reinforcing their commitment to the community and esteemed hospitality and events.
