For Rent
$4,900 Per Week (High Season)
Enjoy your getaway at this cottage with a great view Lower Buckhorn Lake. The cottage is situated off the main channel so you don’t have the waves from the large boats yet can still watch them go by. The lakefront of the cottage tends to be very calm and is great for all boating activities.
Appreciate the great swimming off the dock. Relax on the deck watching others play on the expansive lawn or sit back on the large dock viewing the fun in the lake. At night gather around the firepit to watch the night sky or snuggle inside around the fireplace.
