Quiet, Clean, Great
This is an unpretentious cottage (with every basic amenity you would expect), spotlessly clean, and a great location. Its at one end of five lakeside cottages with its own (small) sand beach, a very spacious dock shared with next cottage, in a windless bay. Water a little weedy but not too bad. Very pleasant landlords are three cottages over. WE'd go back.

Peace and quiet
A lovely location on Sharbot Lake looking east, very close to the water and dock. The Blackbird cottage was ideal for the four of us all week and could easily accommodate a couple more. It's a short drive to town for groceries.

Calm, peaceful and perfect.
We spent a week here August 15-22. Everything was better than expected. The lake was very warm and inviting, great fishing and a great host. We will definitely return if there are any openings next year. Highly recommend this rustic getaway.
