A breakwater-protected bay beach, quarrystone revetment, flat-topped breakwater, stone steps, and the addition of a boat house and a boat ramp help to increase the usability of the beach and lakefront.  The native prairie and beach grasses help restore what was an unsightly bluff devoid of quality vegetation. 

Working closely with the landscape architect, Shabica & Associates approached the bluff restoration, breakwater design, revetment, vegetation and beach as integral elements with each part crucial to the success of the system.
