The master suite in this summer cottage on Lake Geneva, Wis., is designed to take full advantage of the panoramic surroundings by incorporating floor-to-ceiling glass in the bedroom and sitting room to maximize views in three directions.

A fireplace, coffee and wine bar, and deluxe bath turn the suite into a true retreat by using hand-glazed custom tile on the fireplace surround and plush carpeting in both the sitting and sleeping areas.

Furnishings are arranged so the lake is always on full display, whether one is just waking up, retiring for the night, catching up on email, or enjoying time by the fire. A deck off the master suite brings the uninterrupted sight lines of the lake even closer to the homeowner.
