About this property

Cozy Island Cottage located on Lower Buckhorn Lake

This rustic, yet cozy island cottage is located on Lower Buckhorn Lake approx. 20 min. north of Lakefield, Ont. The interior has a vaulted ceiling, along with paneled walls and pine flooring. The kitchen, living and eating areas are open concept with nice views to the lake. The screened in sun porch over looks the landscape also offering majestic views of the lake and surrounding area. The cottage is situated on a point lot with over 300 feet of shoreline and built close to the water with woodlands behind. The water is a rocky entry with some sand and clay, approx. 2-3 feet deep at the shoreline, sloping to deeper water further out where there may be some weeds. You can also walk to this cottage from the car park over two small dams. The walk is approx. 5 min. through the woods on a well beaten path. The owner will meet with you at the lake to take you to the cottage by boat and again when you depart. It comes with a canoe, paddle boat, life jackets, safety kits, satellite dish, fridge, stove, microwave, BBQ, coffee maker. For the avid fisher, you're looking at Musky, Pickerel, Bass and Perch. There is no smoking or pets, due to some tenant allergies.

Great stay at a lovely cottage
We had a great time at Nadine's cottage for the last week of August. The view from the property is fantastic and we loved watching the light on the water as the sun was setting at the end of the day. The cottage, with 3 bedrooms and 4 beds, met our needs perfectly. The cottage was clean and all the appliances (stove, fridge, microwave) were newish. We rented paddleboards and a kayak from kawarthaadventures.ca so we could do accompanied long distance swims out past the islands. Even though close to the Lovesick Lake locks, the lake didn't seem to get a lot of boat traffic and was nice and quiet. The screened in porch was a lovely spot for meals. Nadine was a great host and made our experience easy. Would definitely rent again.

Review from a family
Nadine the host was very welcoming and helpful, the cottage was very clean. The lake was good for swimming (there were quite a few weeds but the entranceway was cleared out for easy access) Fishing was by far one of the best we’ve experienced. Overall a nice week away, very scenic area.

Wonderful!
We stayed at Nadine's cottage for 2 weeks in August and it was wonderful. Nadine and her family were so helpful and kind. We brought our kayaks and bikes, and there was ample room to store our trailer in the car park. If you enjoy kayaking you can't go wrong with this location - so many beautiful spots to explore! There are also a ton of places to visit in and around Buckhorn Lake - the Rotary Greenway bike trail from Lakefield to Trent was a big hit with our family. Our teenage son and his friend enjoyed fishing off the dock and even caught a couple bass. The paddle boat worked just fine to bring our groceries to the cottage from the car park (there is also a canoe). A couple other bonuses are the big dock (I could have sat on the dock forever watching sunsets) and comfortable beds (which is unusual for a rental cottage!). Highly recommend. We would definitely return!
