Tranquil Buck Lake Cottage-8 Guests- Winterized-Star Gazers Dream!

Peaceful, spacious year round cottage on Buck Lake. 107 private feet of sandy shoreline, WIFI, extensive dock and patio at the beach front, great for young kids. This beautiful lake is perfect for water skiing, tubing, canoeing, kayaking or swimming. The area offers many golf courses, hiking trails, snowmobile and ATV trails right from the cottage. Huntsville has fantastic shopping and restaurants. Arrowhead Park is 25 min away and has beautiful Nordic ski trails and skating. Sprucedale is a 9 minute drive and has marked hiking trails and a convenience store with groceries, LCBO, beer , propane and gas. The cottage has two large bedrooms in the upper section that are pine lined and quiet. The main level has open concept kitchen, dining and living space with a great view out to the lake with large new windows. The downstairs has a sitting area and games room (pingpong and foosball) all open concept. Bathrooms are on the main level and basement. 2 other bedrooms are on main level and basement. Many board games and satellite TV are included as well as all the firewood you would like to use indoors or at the fire pit by the water. Be amazed by the dark night sky that provides opportunity to enjoy the hosts of stars that come alive. It is truly amazing! Lakeside is a small pine lined and powered bunkie cabin at the waters edge,as well, that sleeps your extra guests or the teenagers. You will love staying at this cottage, lapping up the heat from the woodstove, after a day outside in the winter or sitting by the bonfire in the evenings of the summer. Your group will not be disappointed.

Awesome vacation!
We had a great Christmas vacation. The cottage was spotless, and the communication with Kirk was excellent. The location is awesome. We had plenty of snow we spent six days in the winter fairyland. We will definitely be back soon.

Amazing Cottage.
Our stay at Kirk and Krista’s cottage was amazing. It was very spacious with lots to do for all ages. It has everything you could possibly need. From the washer and dryer to even a dishwasher. The kitchen was very well stocked and the BBQ was great as well. From the sunrise on the dock to the campfires near the lake, we couldn’t have imagined a better getaway for our family. Would definitely recommend this cottage, and we hope to return again. Thanks so much Kirk and Krista!!

Great place, awesome waters
Nice cottage with a huge backyard that goes right into the water. Kirk was a responsive and helpful host. He's a got a fishing boat for rent which you can take out into the waters. The dock in the backyard is a cool fishing spot! Our family had a fun time, the cottage is well stocked with what's needed for a family cottage trip.

Very nice place
We stayed at the cottage for Victoria day long weekend, Kirk made sure that the deck is installed for our arrival. Everything was wonderful, the cottage has it all: dishwasher, washer, dryer, 2 washrooms and even foosball and Ping Pong tables, that we enjoyed. The basement is nice , my kids were sleeping comfortably down there. The bunkie is not really useful to have some guest staying there. Water was nice enogh for kids to wet their legs, I believe the water will be warm in summer. The lake is not huge, but beautiful and big enogh for a nice boat ride , fishing or tubing. Reception was not great and internet is a bit shaky when its really cloudy, but the satellite tv was was working spotlessly. Overall great host, great place, recommended!!
