Harbert, a Harbor Country® community, is home to a Swedish bakery that speaks to the Scandinavian founders of this thriving little resort community that was created after the turn of the century. The community’s most famous visitor and resident was Carl Sandburg. Much of Sandburg’s Pulitzer Prize winning account of Abraham Lincoln was written at his Harbert home, where he and his wife lived for 15 years. Today’s residents of this lovely lakeside community intend to preserve Harbert’s small town flavor and charm.
