""For the Birds" is everything promised in the discriptions and pics. The setting is completely private and Bowdish is a quiet lake day and night. Great place to unwind, relax, swim, read, puzzle, paddle and fish. Nice sandy beach and swim area, great deck with fantastic view of the lake. Turn off your cell phone and enjoy the time with those you love. For those who want more - casinos, ocean, shopping - short day trips will provide. "

"For the Birds is a restfull & bliss lake cottage. It has everything you will need to rekindle your soul including great lake views & gardens. One night I saw the stars reflecting in the lake, at dawn hummingbirds dance from flower to flower later I kayaked to cupcake island, then the fish were jumping out of the water at dusk. My kind of day! My kinda of vacation so close yet so far....... Highly recommended."

"The house had everything we needed, was extremely clean and in excellent condition. We just swam and cooked and chilled out. Our kids loved the butterflies and wildlife. They also made the loft their special play area. We really enjoyed our time there as a famliy. Thank you! DS / Weymouth, MA"
