Wonderful

We loved everything. The house is beautiful and cozy. The dock was awesome with lots to do kayaks, paddle board, Lilly pad. The kids loved it. Very easy check in and check out. The cove was awesome although Saturday a little busier with boat and jet ski traffic, but over all not bad. We would stay here again.

Fun family summer vacay home!

We had an awesome time at this lake house. We could spend all day on the dock - swimming, fishing, and enjoying the beautiful surroundings. This is one of the better coves we have stayed in. The kids loved the loft area in the house. The communication with the property manager was quick and super friendly. We would definitely stay at this house again. Thank you!

Lake Trip

This house was awesome and in a great location. The cove was quiet with perfect water. The dock has everything you need from saddle floats to a lily pad to float on. There is a bar to sit at on the dock with a TV to watch. We will definitely be back to The Buck House.

Annual lake trip

This property is a very nice place to stay. We had a few bumps come our way because of the weather but the manager worked them all out. The dock is very nice and getting to use the lily pad was great.Its a very fun cove to be in on the weekend.

Amazing Dock, quiet cove

We brought friends from New Hampshire with us to the lake. The house was roomy- comfortably slept 7 of us- all adults, the beds were very comfortable, the house is well maintained and clean and well stocked with bath towels. I can be picky and couldn’t find anything to complain about! The kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils, cutlery, etc. We used the gas grill and black stone when we cooked at home. The dock is amazing and the owner generously allows use of their Lilly pad and floating devices. We spent the majority of our days hanging out on the dock and in the water. The surrounding town is small but there are several restaurants and lake side places like Frankie and Louie’s within a 10-15 min drive- or just a few minutes drive if you have a boat. We will definitely be back!!

Family vacation

Perfect family vacation. House was clean and roomy. Was great having a washer and dryer available. The dock and water toys kept our teenagers busy all week. They also loved the outdoor television. We rented a pontoon boat for a couple days from Bombay Boat Rentals. Short drive to town for groceries or forgotten items. We were very happy with our stay.

weekend getaway

The House was very nice just like the pictures. It was close to town if you needed anything from the grocery store. we did bring our boats but we also enjoyed swimming off the dock and all the water toys when we weren't out on the big lake, would stay again.

We really enjoyed the house and location.

We really enjoyed the house and location. Was not as much traffic on the water which made it better for swimming. The host has plenty of extras to use to stay busy and we were thankful for that. We would stay here again.

Amazing vacation home

Just returned from 5 nights at the Buck House. House was clean and had all the features you'd expect. Water toys were a plus for everyone to enjoy. Fishing was amazing, water temp perfect. We were able to rent a boat and leave by our own dock. Location at the end of an inlet was perfect. Not to much water traffic and peaceful especially in the evenings. Gravel road going down to the house was a little sketchy but figured it out after a few trips. Only wish the backyard was more flat as we couldn't do any yard games due to the grade of the lawn. Rick was available as needed. Overall an incredible place to enjoy the outdoors, water and sunshine! Thanks Rick for sharing your home. Amazing memories were made.
