After a short paddle boat ride in the Eastern Waterways, you'll find yourself on Grishom's Island, home of the Stone Manor, which is a private property residence on Four Winds Isle.

Stone Manor is a 9 room private property that hosts a variety of features, including vibrant flowerbeds full of tuberose, amaryllis, golden poppy and sirenflowers. The Banquet Hall offers a selection of 6 food dishes and 1 drink, which include plates of peppers and sausage, bowls of orange sorbet, squares of spiced carrot cake, fillets of deep fried cod, bowls of seasoned rice, grilled mixed vegetable kabobs and mugs of hot mocha-hazelnut coffee. The Grand Ballroom offers a Dance Floor, and a bar stocked with 3 additional drink choices which include glasses of jasmine petal tea, lemon-zested water and rich black cherry wine. You'll also find a Terrace on the second floor stocked with mugs of Stone Manor brew and shots of cherry-infused vodka. In the Bedchamber you'll find a desk, a bookshelf, a highly zested bed and a lockable armoire that provides 130 pounds of storage. (Plus additional storage on the Banquet Hall table.)

Walkthrough

[Grishom's Island, Dock]
A wide driftwood dock rises above the water and stretches to a sandy beach where large palm trees sway with the ocean's breeze.  Meticulously carved wooden steps lead from the shore up to a high rolaren gate where a two-story manor lies beyond.  You also see several whitewashed pedal boats.

You also see a four-post mahogany bed and a polished mahogany armoire inlaid with ivory scrollwork.
