Two fountains, two view decks, a lava rock waterfall and a lofty circular meditation deck add to the peaceful ambience. The surrounding land is a true nature sanctuary where mourning cloak caterpillars transform into butterflies, tiny croaking frogs inhabit the fountains, and native Cooper Hawks nest in the upper tree canopies.
