Yeah, the shack is pretty clean !! It has to be at a little bit "chick friendly" because it's tucked in the corner of the bedroom in the guest cottage. The room is actually fairly large (18 x 16), and the eaves come down to 4 feet at the knee wall and the roof pitch is good (9/12). Sometimes we have guests staying in the room and even small children, so things have to be reasonable.
All I can say is that Sherrie was thrilled when I moved the shack out of the main cottage and into the guest cottage.
There are clip leads involved, but they're behind and inside of things
The incidental heat from tubes would not be appreciated in the summer when we're there. Winter? That would be another story! Fortunately we're not there in the winter. The island is inaccessible from about November to late January when the ice is "iffy" and then again from early March to ice out. A few brave (crazy?) folks go over in the Winter, but so far I've had no great desire to do so!! There have been couples who have lived on the island all year - they have hovercraft types of boats. There is absolutely NO ONE AT ALL there for company. I would think it would get very lonely and cooped up in a cottage all winter long with no one around, but hey, different strokes!!
