The resort is organized with guestrooms as individual cabins placed at the tip of the rocky formations of the Island, where the positioning in the landscape ensures an immersive, yet private, view to the majestic nature and the elements outside. The shelter design endeavors to make a minimum environmental impact with minimum footprint and the use of cross laminated timber construction. The old farmhouse was renovated and converted to restaurant and library and a sauna was made in the natural pond using left over materials.
