We really enjoyed our weekend together there
The property is absolutely gorgeous! We canoed and hung out by the fire pit. So lovely in the Fall. Very spacious inside. Lots of indoor activities as well. The kitchen should have been cleaner, but the upstairs was very clean. We didn’t find the jacuzzi very clean so we didn’t use it.

Beautiful property and very helpful host!
We were a group of 12 and there was plenty of room for all of us to sleep comfortably. The host was very responsive and helpful with the check in process and all questions we had. The property is gorgeous and has incredible views. Would definitely stay again!

Buckhorn getaway
This cottage was the perfect size for accommodating our large family (11 people) gathering. Cottage is well equipped overall with loads of space and many amenities, including a pool table and magnetic dartboard. Canoe, SUP, inflatables with lots of life jackets for water activities off the long dock. We spent a lot of time on that dock enjoying the waterfront and views. Good fishing off the dock for the little ones. Good fishing for the angler a short paddle away. Kitchen is well equipped and bathrooms had lots of towels. Dog friendly too! Property itself is very unique and close to town. Getting supplies is easy, including great pizza and ice cream in town by the locks. The only quibble is that the cottage wasn't quite as clean as we'd hoped for when we arrived. But that did not deter the fun and enjoyment we had. The hosts are very responsive and helpful, and the check-in is easy and straightforward. Overall, a highly recommended property!

Unique Cottage
Cottage was fun to stay at, relatively easy to find and a good size space for the amount of people we had. It has what I would call a unique floorplan, including a second staircase to a bedroom/annex and a 2nd floor doorway to nowhere, but it added a bit of character. Some minor issues around it, there was still some work going on to renovate/upgrade some spaces but wasn't anything major. The stovetop and oven can't be on at the same time, which made some cooking a challenge, so a minor issue for the hosts to look at in the future. Water access was a definite plus, as was the outdoor fire pit. Bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and everything was in working order. Cottage could use a bit more finishing touches, but was a great experience overall. Hosts were very communicative and responded to all questions immediately, provided suggestions of local things to do and were very pleasant to deal with at all times. Overall, a good place to stay, we had a fun time!
