Eagle Vista Cottage at the Old Sacheen Lake Resort

About Bobbie

I am a 80 year old grandmother who has owned a construction company since 1974. My oldest son and I are now partners in the business and the business owns the lake property. Since we bought this property it has been a work in process and it still is. We are very family oriented and have enjoyed working and playing together on this project. We have 3 children, 13 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren and this is a wonderful way to enjoy the family.

Bobbie purchased this Cottage in 1993

Why Bobbie chose Newport

When our children were little this was a very busy resort. My In-laws took theri trailer up at the beginning of the summer and then other members of the family would go up and camp or just fo for the day. There was a large camping area, some cabins, and a restauarant out by the road. Lots of companies held their company picnics there. We have had numerous people stop by to share their memories of the time they spent a Sacheen Lake Resort. One of our sons drove by one day and saw the for sale sign and we bought it. That was almost 17 years ago.

What makes this Cottage unique

We anjoy watching the eagles and ospreys fly over and sometimes dive for food. Occasionally, we see a heron sitting at the end of the dock. We have seen turtles sunning themselves on logs, a few times we have seen deer come down for a drink and one day this spring we saw a coyote come down to the middle of the yard before being frightened away. I enjoy the view. The house and cabins are set back from the lake and there is a large expanse of lawn between the houses and the beach and we just have a wonderful view of the whole end of the lake. This is a piece of property that we could never replace. We have 7 acres of lake view property! We are truly blessed!!
