Lake Nacimiento is an 18 mile long lake on the Nacimiento River in northern San Luis Obispo County, California. The lake contains many arms including Snake Creek and Dip Creek, nearer the dam, and the central Las Tablas and Franklin Creeks. Because of these arms, it is sometimes referred to as Dragon Lake. The lake can fill quickly in the winter from river surges resulting from downpours upstream in the Santa Lucia range so the level is not usually allowed to capacity until May 1 of each year.

Lake Nacimiento is an excellent fishery, and is unique among California reserviors in that it contains, among other species, introduced white bass, which thrive in the lake and spawn in the river and inflowing creeks in Spring. Lake Nacimiento can produce power from a turbine at the base of the dam.

The lake was originally designed for irrigation water and flood control as well as recreation. Nacimiento Dam, a 210 foot earthfill dam, forms the lake. The dam was built by the Monterey County Water Authority, which completed construction in 1961. The water authority uses the lake to recharge its groundwater. The lake is near the town of Lake Nacimiento.

In modern usage, a cottage is a dwelling, typically in a rural, or semi rural location (although there are cottage style dwellings in cities). In the United Kingdom, the term cottage tends to denote a rurally, located one and a half storey property, where on the second (upstairs floor) one has to walk into the eaves in order to look through the windows, which are generally located in dormers (the sort of dwelling that some Americans call a Cape Cod). This sometimes means that the eave timbers intrude into the actual living space, and quite often, especially in recent renovations, the relevant timbers (purlins, rafters, posts, etc) can be exposed enhancing the cottage experience. Cottages of the seasonal-use type are generally referred to as "cabins" in the United States, particularly in the Midwest and West. In much of Northern Ontario, New England, and Northern New York a summer house near a body of water is known as a camp. This is also on the great lake. In North America, most buildings known as cottages are used for weekend or summer getaways by city dwellers. It is also not uncommon for the owners of cottages to rent their properties to tourists as a source of revenue.
