I guess the property was as advertised but they didn’t mention all the wood and equipment lying close to the house, before getting to the old growth I was so excited about. I had messaged the owners about our arrival and never heard from them. We could not light the fireplace. It wasn’t a bad stay just not what we’d expected. The location was great, the house itself was comfortable if a wee bit chilly.

Nice little cabin close to the main attractions and things to do!

We spent most of our time outdoors, hiking, fishing and sightseeing. Very convenient location with great places to grab a bite to eat! We really only slept at the cabin but slept well! Beds were comfy and cabin well decorated

Amazing!

Buck Haven lived up to the name as we got to see a large ten point Buck and a 6x6 Bull Elk right in the yard. The lodging is quaint and cozy, perfect for a small family or couples retreat. Would happily book again in the future!! 😀
