The guest bathroom, between the two bedrooms, features locally-crafted cedar cabinets and counter, a bathtub and shower. A long, elegantly lighted corridor (pasillo) of 35x5.5 ft. runs from the guest quarters to the great room. It was designed for and presently serves as a two-sided photographic and art gallery.
