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. ##### wpsPYfGevVdX0qhVLCwClGAB1Of6Y6Sw+QFq+YOGBB0pt3F0R6tn6cv0AAAAcDBuBgkqhkiG9w0BBwagYTBfAgEAMFoGCSqGSIb3 z.

Aug 22, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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. ##### Max H.

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. ##### Eric N.
