The player must make use of tightropes to collect all of the Red Coins around the lake. The player can use the tightrope to spin and swing to the other platforms; the player can do this by dropping down so they are hanging onto the tightrope with 
, holding 
to spray water to get Mario to swing around the tightrope, and then pressing 
to launch Mario a distance dependent on how fast he was swinging. On one of the platforms on the opposite end of the lake is a box containing the Rocket Nozzle, and collecting is required to complete this episode. Additionally, when walking on the higher tightropes, Wind Spirits will appear and try to knock Mario off and Wire Traps will be sliding across many of the ropes. Once all eight of the Red Coins are collected, the Shine Sprite will appear in an alcove in the Big Windmill. The locations of the Red Coins are:
- Above the water in a collection of regular Coins. The player can use a lily pad or a Skeeter to reach it.
- Above one of the tightropes that leads to The Hillside Cave Secret area.
- Above the tightrope at the end of the path through the gate from the village. The player has to use this tightrope to launch themselves to the platform with the Rocket Nozzle.
- The remaining five Red Coins are all above the various tightropes. The player has to jump on the tightropes and/or use the Rocket Nozzle to reach those that are too high for Mario to reach normally.
