About this property

Nighthawk Cottage on private lake with dock, hot tub, amenities.

Cottage resides on 40 private acres, 2.5 acre lake in the middle. The lodge, my home, is on the other side of the lake and has a full apt. available as well. The hot tub is located at the lodge and is a short walk or drive from the cottage. It is shared with apt guests, so I schedule times of your choosing for your privacy.
I grow a variety of organic veggies, berries, fruit available for purchase in season. Also as a passion, I make in house charcuterie, cheese, sourdoughs and ferments mostly for friends but extend to guests upon request.
I encourage chefs, cooks, gardeners to participate and share knowledge of all things food.
Cottage built 2020, 700 sq ft with wrap around porches, deluxe kitchen including gas stove/oven, tiled tub/shower, cozy private bedroom with futon in main room, large windows, gas grill, firepit, antique furnished with eclectic artworks and paintings.
Local activities include hiking, water falls, skiing, fishing, hunting, mushrooming[great chanterelle area], bird watching [I've identified 56 species on the property]. Surrounding towns have antiquing, restaurants, bakeries, wineries.
Wifi connection unlimited Starlink, free Netflix, smart TV.
I meet with guests briefly upon arrival to review essential property details, burn bans etc.
Dogs may not be left unattended at any time, crated or not.
The lake is surrounded by sphagnum peat moss and trees which leach tannins into water creating an off color. The water has been lab tested. Infants to seniors have been swimming here for my 25 year ownership. The lake is 30' deep, fed by the aquifer and has a high oxygen content.
Massages available from neighbor and friend. Info in unit.

About the host

Hosted by James Barlow

Host profile image
As a retired builder, developer, I enjoy continued landscaping and vegetable/berry/fruit growing and preservation of such on my 40 acres as well as charcuterie, sourdough and cheese production. I take advantage of the local mountain hiking and fishing as well as Donaldson steelhead/trout triploids in lake depending on otter predation.

Why they chose this property

I bought this 40 acres in part due to the 2.5 acre lake at its center as well as the seclusion. I built my home-the Lodge- and sculpted the grounds with extensive soil amendments for organic food production and landscaping.

What makes this property unique

New cottage on lake with private dock. Hot tub a short walk or drive around lake. Fresh organic produce available for purchase in season.
The property is a a nature cornucopia.
I named the property after the common Nighthawk who migrates from South America to nest here in summer, one of the longest migrations to North America. Their acrobatic maneuvers are extraordinary as well as the unique behavior of plummeting toward earth, to pull up and create a loud boom which is due to their wing/bone structure.
I've identified 56 species of birds on the property and await new arrivals especially migratory.
The Pacific tree frog and other indigenous amphibians proliferate in the lake. The frogs sing me to sleep with their mating songs in spring and summer.
The lake is surrounded by a peat bog of varying vibrant varieties as well as wild cranberries, Labrador Tea, Sundews-our carnivorous resident- and plants unique to peat bogs.
Many species of wild life live here. Bobcat, black bear, cougar, mountain beavers as well as beavers, otters, red squirrels, deer. None have been aggressive toward us.
Mushrooming in fall is as good as it gets. Chanterelles, boletus, lions main etc.
