Cozy cottage, private 1-acre lot, lakefront, less than 1 hour from St. John's.

Welcome to Dragonfly Cottage on Reids Pond! This cozy, 2-bedroom cottage is nestled on a private 1-acre lot, is accessible by an easy drive along the TCH, and is less than an hour from the St. John's airport. Far enough to feel like you've gotten away from it all, but close enough to everything to make easy day-trips to all that Eastern Newfoundland has to offer. Perfect for families, a couple of friends, or a romantic getaway. Watch the sunsets from the front deck, enjoy a fire (indoors or out), hike nearby trails, relax by the water, or check out the nearby golf courses, breweries, or quaint Newfoundland out-ports and towns. Only 5-10 minutes from many amenities including restaurants and grocery stores, with many, many more attractions within a half an hour drive.
