Perfect
This property fit our needs perfectly. It is very quiet and peacefull. This was our second time there. The interior is very rustic and clean. Definitely will be back.
We wanted a peaceful getaway and that’s what got at the Buck Shack. We were a short drive with breathtaking views and landscapes. We enjoyed a campfire with s’mores at night. Enjoyed the sound of nature and birds singing. Had excellent communication with host and most everything we needed when we arrived. The indoor decor is rustic and beautifully decorated with small accents and details. Highly recommend!☺️

I know why a picture of the outside is not shown
This is a trailer which isnt a problem just not very appealing when you first arrive. The inside is very thought out and a lot of effort but not as clean as i expected.

Hello Kathy! I'm sorry that you were disappointed in the property. This is the first I am hearing of your displeasure. I'll be in touch!
The Buck Shack didn’t look like much from the outside but the owners did a great job renovating the entire inside with a rustic theme. I went as a girls trip with a friend. Everything was clean besides the grill that didn’t work. However they had plenty of pots and pans and kitchen items available. If you expected some kind of land to explore be prepared for a very large incline. I’m overall really happy with my stay.

Great Getaway!
We couldn't be happier with our stay at the buck shack. We are originally from a very small town in western ma but moved to the city in SC a few years back so our stay here was very quiet, relaxing and reminded me of home. The inside is organized so thoughtfully and throughout the whole place that it just gives you that rustic, cabin feel! Pretty much everything you need is provided there for you which is extremely convenient. One of the best parts for me personally is how attentive and responsive Sarah is. She got back to me sometimes within a minute of me writing to her. Communication is key! We will definitely be back in the future :)

Hi David! We do have a driveway so I’m not entirely sure what you’re referring to when you state there is no driveway parking. Per our messages before you arrived, I stated there would not be parking for your boat and offered to refund your stay to which you replied “I really don’t want to cancel.”
This was a perfect place to have a little get away weekend. I was a little misguided when I pulled up to the place and it was a single-wide. By the description we thought it was a cabin. Other than that it’s a beautiful interior and I love the cabin feel on the inside!
I had a good trip at the Buck Shack. The property was very clean when we arrived. There were a couple things that needed repair like the handle on the dryer and the shower handle. We were still able to enjoy ourselves and would likely return in the future.
Multiple things were dirty when we checked in, the grass was not mowed at all, the water pressure was super low and not very much hot water. When I first arrived it was 59 degrees in the house.
Don't be fooled by the outside of this property the property manager has done an amazing job renovating the entire inside. We found the property very clean and comfortable. This is close to Amish country and close to the Denison train museum. Sitting on the front porch in the morning is a bird watchers dream. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
