ABOUT THE OWNERS
We love the outdoors and spending time at our own cabin with our son Jack, and dog Molson, so much we wanted to be able to share this experience with people near and far.
We believe Gambo has so much to offer, and we invite you to come and see for yourself. We live just across the street and are always available, whether it be directions to a prime local fishing hole, or being able to show you one of our popular walking or atv/snowmobile trails.
Come see our beauty, and what makes us cottage country.

THE LOCATION
Located on the main road in the heart of Gambo, approximately 5kms from the Trans Canada Highway.
Black Duck Cottages also sits a mere 500 meters from the Newfoundland T’railway and on the grassy shores of Freshwater Bay.
The perfect location for any outdoor getaways.
Black Duck Cottages
A wonderful cottage with beautiful views and centrally located in town. It was spotless with quality furniture and bed and the location is very quiet and peaceful. There was careful attention to detail which was appreciated. Down to the selection of lighting and bulbs which was beautiful in the long winter evenings. I highly recommend these cottages.
We had a large group of 12 people with three cabins. Was really nice we could all be together and it was like our little private area. Beautiful view of the water and playground for the kids. We got to go to Lumsden Beach, splash and putt and even enjoy Gambo splash pad with the hiking trail in town. If we come up this way again, we will be looking to rebook with you guys. Clean cabins, and they have everything we needed. Sarah even checked in to make sure we didn’t need anything. 5 stars!
