About this property

Bluebird Rest - Peaceful Lake Retreat

  • This isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a place people don’t want to leave. Tucked along the quiet shoreline of Lincoln Lake, this private cottage has become something of a hidden gem. Guests regularly say the same thing before they leave: “WE WANT TO BUY THIS PLACE.” The Experience: Mornings start slow—coffee on the porch, the lake still, birds moving through the trees. Afternoons are yours. Fish off the dock, read, stroll around the lake, or do nothing at all. Evenings are where it settles in—cool shade, fire pit going, the kind of quiet you didn’t realize you needed. This isn’t a busy, crowded lake, it’s peaceful, private, hard to find. What makes it different…Sits on 4 manicured lake lots , (rare for this area). Private dock, screened porch for year round comfort, Stone patio + fire pit for the evenings. Wildlife everywhere—eagles, deer, otters, owls, waterfowl, etc…. Everything here has been intentionally cared for—not just functional, but felt. Location: 20 minutes from Jack Daniels Distillery, 15 minutes to Pritchard Distillery, minutes to Elk River canoe access, close to hiking, but far from noise. Firewood included. IMPORTANT: Quiet lake community—this is a place to relax, not party. No gas powered boats. Pet Fee: $100 (please clean up + minimize barking)
