A picture would sure help. We have a lot of hunting camps around here with fitting names and if you seen some of them you would sure get a chuckle out of it.

Re: cottage names

Why copy someone else's name? Why not be original?<br /><br />Some names that I considered before nameing my home The Hideout were:<br /><br />Nirvana<br />Sanctum<br />O-ona-gazhee (Lakota: A sheltering place)<br /><br />Good luck. :)

We're gonna need to know about you and your family and what you do up there in order to come up with a neat name.

Of course, just the publicly releasable stuff. This is a family site. :D <br /><br />AK Chappy

Re: cottage names

thanks everyone for your input, as far as family goes it is just me and my wife. kids will be visiting ocasionally, my dad will be parking his camper on the back acre so he will be around alot. various friends and other family members will be spending weekends up there with us. mainly what we do up there is go fishing, sit around the fire and chat with the neibors that stop by or the company that is staying with us. generally just relax by night and enjoy the water by day. the place is not right on the water. boat landing is about a 5 minute walk away.<br /><br />
