It over looked the Sanderson's old cow pasture and down towards the Seal Rock section of Lake McWain. The one or two campers would go sit on the deck in the sun and read or just as a time out place away from the cabin. Eventually the decking rotted away and the deck fell apart. The little path leading from the cabin to the stone wall where the deck was is still somewhat intact.
