Black Point Cottage
Private Oceanfront Peninsula
Details
At the very end of East Ragged Island Road begins the half-mile driveway to Black Point Cottage; a gracious home on its own private 70 acre oceanfront peninsula.
Black Point Cottage has a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Vintage pieces and colourful eclectic furnishings bring a casual style and retro panache to the cottage.
Designed to take full advantage of its extraordinary location, this retreat offers unparalleled ocean views of Gull Rock Lighthouse and Lockeport Harbour. On stormy days, expansive windows allow you to take in the natural beauty from the comfort of home. While, on calm days a fresh breeze blows though the cottage encouraging you to get out and explore or enjoy the scenery from upper and lower decks.
The main floor features a spacious open concept living room, dining room, and kitchen. The comfortable living room has plenty of room for everyone with two large sofas and an overstuffed chair. There are board games and cards as well as a TV (no satellite) with VHS player, and plenty of movies to choose from. Listen to music on the stereo (with a variety of CD’s provided), or create your own on the cottage piano.
The bright kitchen opens onto a dining area with seating for eight and more ocean views. The cottage is well equipped with everything you will need for a week by the ocean including a propane BBQ grill and that all important pot for cooking lobsters at home.
Black Point Cottage sleeps 8 people in four spacious bedrooms. On the main floor there are two bedrooms, one with a queen size bed. While the other has two twin beds. Also downstairs is a full 4-piece bathroom. Up the spiral staircase is the second floor where there is the sizable master bedroom. Large windows offers ocean views across the bay to the west and out to sea. Enjoy your morning tea or coffee from the private deck at treetop level. There’s another bedroom with two twin beds upstairs, along with a full bath. The laundry room is across the hall, and beach towels are at the ready in the linen closet.

Reviews
“A Wonderful Time”
We had a wonderful time here. We spent the week before our wedding at the cottage with some of our friends. Everyone said it was the perfect amount of space in the home and we all loved exploring the rocky beach. Our dog loved it too…I think she wished she was still there.
“Terrific”
Overall the cottage and the property were terrific. A few highlights for us:
- The cottage was spacious. Even though there are four of us in my family, we had another family of four join for a few nights. The bedrooms were very spacious and comfortable. The cottage comfortably accommodates 8.
- The property is a terrific “get-away”. We could not see or hear the nearest neighbour, so it was amazingly peaceful. The constant, beautiful view of the ocean was just what I needed.
- We cook a lot and the cottage had everything we needed. The pots and utensils were very good quality compared to virtually every other cottage we have rented over the years. Often we find frying pans that are warped with the Teflon peeling away, but not at Black Point Cottage.
- The local beaches were terrific and were virtually deserted even on hot, sunny days.
- The lack of wifi was a plus, as it kept our kids off devices.
