1898–1901. 27–33 W. Bluff Dr.

This set of modest single-story vacation cottages was built as summer retreats along Bluff Drive over a four-year period: 1898 (number 27), 1900 (number 29), and 1901 (number 31). Each cottage features a central door between original double-hung windows that begin at floor level and four delicate Tuscan columns supporting a covered porch. Number 29 best retains the original form. A fourth cottage built in 1920 at 33 W. Bluff resembles the others, but its porch columns are larger.
